Walsh, of Monâ€" tana, will come as a double shock to the American people. Few men in public life were so respected as Senator Walsh, and it was the general belief that he would have been the strongest Attorneyâ€"General of the United States in a generat.on. For many years his ambition was to become a member of the United States Supreme Court, but his age closed that door. During this period the party‘s order, reading like a wartime military decree, directs women and children to carry on the work of the villages which will be stripped of men. Peasants who reâ€" fuse service in the forests will be conâ€" sidered traitors and dealt with accordâ€" ingly. The order specified that the present rate of timberâ€"cutting must be doubled and the rate of transportation tripled. All ableâ€"bodied peasants in the whole northern â€" region, covering 1,119,006 square kilometres, will be mobilized for compulsory work. Admitting that recent bad work in the cutting and transport of lumber threatens imminent danger to this phase of the second fiveâ€"yesr plan, the northern region Communist party proâ€" claimed a 31â€"day period, beginning Feb. 7 and ending March 10, as a month for "Stalin‘s march to the forâ€" ests." All peasants in the northern region numbering thousands, have been drafâ€" ted for one month‘s labor in lumber camps, in an effort to prevent failure of the Soviet timber export plan for 1933â€"34, says a recent despatch from Archangel, Russia. Thousands of Peasants Drafted for Bush Labour 5. That Boards of Trade, Chambers of Commerce and citizens generally seâ€" cond the efforts of Government to reâ€" duce expenditures by refraining on their part from demanding increased expenditures out of revenue for things, and in places, in which they may be inâ€" terested, and as good citizens accept in good grace any cuts which may be made. 4. That in any refunding operations which may be necessary, the rate of interest paid be considered with exâ€" treme care in the light of the needs of private industry upon which the income of Ontario citizens depends. 3. That, unless absolutely unavoidable no money be borrowed outside of Canaâ€" da and Great Britain. Z. That the rates of pay obtaining in provincial services be studied in the light of cost of living figures, the rates cbtaining in private undertakings, the comparative security of public employâ€" ment, and the reduced income of the average citizen and taxpayer. 1. That the mersonnel establishments of every departiment of government be studied t-horough\y to determine just how many of each grade are actually required; that, when possible, where undermanning is shown, transâ€" fers be made from other departments which may be overmanned; and that any net overmanning which may result be met by not making appointments to fill vacancies and by retirements and separation from service. In to coâ€"operate with the government of Ontario, with a view to a drastic curtailment Of expendiâ€" tures, so that substantial reductions in taxation will follow in due course, the Ontario COL\mittee has made the folâ€" leowing recommendations: â€" Figures are quoted by the committee to show the increase since 1904 in exâ€" penditures in the province. These fiâ€" gures show health, public welfare, etc., has increased 100 per cent.; education 977 p.c.; highways, roads, etc., 265 debt service, interest retirement, etc., 4676 p.c.; total in all classifications, (PTL. p.C. "The average citizen," the Committee points out, "may not think that Provinâ€" cial expenditures make much difference to him. Perhaps the only Provinciat tax he pays is the gasoline tax, which he pays in small amounts and often without realizing that he is paying a tax. All public expenditure for genâ€" eral purposes, however, means taxation, and even if paid in the first instance by corporations, the burden is so disâ€". tributed that every resident Of the Proâ€" vince and everyone who is interested in amy concern which does business in the~ Province is a provincial taxpayer." De‘st service (interest, retirement, etc.,) jumped from approximately $240â€" 000 in 1904â€"5 to $11,461,861 in 1930â€"1â€" a staggering increase of 4676 pc. Highâ€" ways, roads, etc., cost $224,395 in 1904â€" 5, and $6,175,213 in 1930â€"1â€"a 2652 p.c. jump. On health, public welfare and social service, $1,170,490 was spent in 1904â€"5, and $12,912,754 in 1930â€"1â€"an increase of 1003 p.c. week by the Ontario Committee on Economy in Public Finance, on which thirtyâ€"one Ontario cities and towns are represented . The Committee finds that from 1904â€" 5 to 1931, the population of the Proâ€" vince increased from 2,289,000, to 3,â€" 431,683, or approximately 50 p.c., while provincial expenditures over 970 p.c., which is a per capita increase of 613 p.c. In 1904â€"5 the per capita expenditure was $2.34; in 1931, $3.93; in 1930â€"1, $16.69. Between 1913 and 1931 (Dec.) the eost of living went up only 35 px. These figures do not make pleasant reading for the taxpayers. From five million dollars in 1904â€"5, and nearly eleven millions in 1913â€"14, to fiftyâ€"seven milllion dollars in 1930â€"1 is the almost unbelievable increase in the expenlitures of the Province of Onâ€" tario, according to a report issued last Debt Service in Ontario has Increased from $240,000 in 19M to $11,461.881 at Present, Says Committee Expenditlgres Show _ | Montreal Gir Staggering Growth _ *"* North Bay Nugget:â€"When you talk abount inflation consider the bagpipes and the result thereon. Then the game began, and it is saig by oldtimers that this, claimed to be the first of real ice hockey games, covered more than six miles of ice. Before the contest was finished the tired players had chased the puck out through the "gap" and six miles across to Hilton whartf. Within a few days a dozen or so of the young white boys, with sticks sim« ilar to those used by the Indians, joined "Bocobowash" (Louise Jack,) Michigan "Tomecat," well known for two generaâ€" tions along the shore, and other Inâ€" dians who had already developed into experts at the new game. Three young Indians were already busy on skates with long, pipeâ€"shaped sticks, each Indian endeavoring to get possession of a small object by striking it with the stick or "hooking" it from an opponent. This was interesting and amusing to the crowd. Soon a number of young men and boys procured sticks from the shore and joined in the play. In 1870, at Bruce Mines one sunny winter‘s day, the whole iceâ€"covered bay lay glistening as smooth as glass. School children, just released, scamâ€" pered down to the shore to slide.

Perhaps people in the North these days are more concerned in how hockey | is winding up this season than how it started. In any event, however, there will be general interest in this hockeyâ€" loving country in regard to anything about the history of hockey. If anyâ€" thing is to be claimed about anything in connection with hockey it is only to be expected that Sault Ste. Marie | should be heard from. With the matâ€"| ter of the origin of hockey being disâ€" cussed the following despatch came from the Sault last week:â€" Algoma Now Claims Starting of Hockey Assertion â€"Made from Sault Ste.

Last year for instance, the Geological Survey undertook one of the most extensive During the past twenty years the exploratory phase of the survey‘s work has been subordinated in consequence of the rapid development of the minerâ€" al industry of southern Canada:; but it The Geoclogical Survey, the older of the two main branches, is really the pioneer of Canadian mineral developâ€" ment. Established by Sir William Loâ€" gan nearly a century ago, it now ranks as one of the foremost scientific organâ€" izations in the world. Its maps and reports have played some part in pracâ€" tically every mineral discovery in the Dominion. Largely because of its bold exploratory work between 1870 and 1900 there is no part of ‘Canada, except parts of the Arctic Archipelago, of which the main features are not known. The Department of Mines, Ottawa, has issued a pamphlet describing its organization, and outlining the more important services rendered by it to the mineral industry through its two main branches, the Geological Surâ€" vey, and the Mines Branch. (New York Times If the Gulf Stream were to hug the Atlantic coast north of the Carolinas, ousting the Labrador current, there would be no more cold weather in winâ€" ter for the North Atlantic states. An impression that the mildness of the llast two seasons has been due to a }swerving of the stream many miles lwest'. is dissipated again by a naval offiâ€" cer, this time a lieutenant on a British destroyer which has been making a survey between Halifax and Bermuda. He states that the Gulf Stream has not changed its course at all with relation to the Atlantic coast, and that its limits south of Nova Scotia as outlined in the Admiralty charts printed in 1911 "check perfectly with its present position."

Develop Radium Process Chemists of the Branch‘s Ore Dresâ€" sing Division made a major contribuâ€" tion to the science of metallurgy last year when they devised a process for the extraction of radium from the pitchblende of Great Bear Lake. This process will be used in the Eldorado plant at Port Hope. It was in the laâ€" boratories of this Division also, that a process for the semiâ€"direct production of nickel steel from Sudbury ores was devised. This process, though not ready for commercial application, has proven highly satisfactory in so far as technical principles are concerned. strations carried out in the Branch‘s Fuel Research Laboratories, and in commercial plants proved beyond doubt the suitability of Canadian coals for coke production. The result has been the exclusive use of these coals by seâ€" veral cokeâ€"manufacturing plants, and the use of proportions varying from 35 per cent. to 50 per cent. by others. None the less notable is the branch‘s contribution to the Ceramic industry, an industry to which the research laâ€" boratory is vital. It was in the Cerâ€" amic laboratories of the branch that experiments, which led to ~reducing the drying time of certain western clays from seven days to three days, and the moisture losses from 40 per cent. to practically nothing, were carried out.
