neers Act, which changes would have curtailed our right to work our own claims and mining properties unless we hired a professional engineer to sluperâ€" vise the operations. The Professional Engineers Society have endegvoured for some years to put this legislation through and have spent large sums of money in their efforts. OQur only means of efectively opposing them is by our combined opinion voiced through this and any other organization representâ€" Your president and secretary spent ten days in Ottawa on the gold tax and feel that their efforts were in part reâ€" sponsible for having the burden of this tax taken off the shoulders of those mines which depended on the increasâ€" ed price of gold to make profits. This question is still much to the fore and is of great interest to each of our memâ€" bers as it vitally affects the value of the properties we have to sell and is an enormous factor in increasing the diffâ€" culty of raising money to finance prosâ€" pecting and development. Since the change of government, your association has made oo%?% the new administration and explained the point of view of the prospector and developer. We have especially urged that steps be taken to prevent blanketing by those who call themselves prospectors, but do nothing but fellow the real prospector and put up stakes around as much ground as possible and then sit in comâ€" fort in town and watch the other felâ€" low develop the country. This pest should be exterminated. The new regulations governing the health and sanitation of the men in small camps engaged in mining develâ€" opment and prospecting were finally put into force on April 17th, 1934. These new regulations are quite satisfactory to those engaged in prospecting and in operating small temporary camps, and relieve us of the fear of unlimited liaâ€" bility which always existed under the old regulations. The new regulations also define quite clearly our duties and responsibilities toward those we employ or those who employ us.

This has done away with a great source of trouble especially in staking claims in whole or in part unâ€" der water.

Mayor McGeer, of Vancouver, after getting Thomas Bradshaw, Toronto financial expert, to report cn Vancouyâ€" er‘s financial difficulties, now â€" refuses to follow the Bradshaw recommendaâ€" tions which suggest retrenchment, economy and careful administration of the city‘s affairs. Mayor McGeer cn the other hand wants to make some extendeg expenditures for the city and proposes what is in effect a repudiation of Vancouver‘s debts.
