egsiatlure. AOn. Mr, KOEDuUCK has Deen asked to wiLndraw it. Any legislature that passes such legislation will be dealt with by the people at the next opportunity. It is against every British instinct and principle. To the question that The Advance is taking too serious a view of the matter it is replied that the proposal is one that requires the most serious opposition. Unless some form of dictatorship is aimed at, there is no sense in the proposed legislation,. There are few towns or citites where the municipal police are not doing their duty fully. The people are able to make a change in case there is need. Only for a limited time will the people of any centre endure improper political control of the police. Under the proposed legislation they would be forced to suffer under partizan police all the time. To the argument that all the power;‘gt the legislation proposed would not be used, the answer is ‘then why have such powers conferred, unless suggestion that closer coâ€"operation is needed between proâ€" vincial and municipal police. In this regard it may be said that the provincial police all over Ontario can Always rely on the fullest coâ€"operation from municipal police just as long as the provincial police merit that coâ€"operation. Timmins and other municipalities in the North give ample proof of this fact. Usually there is the closest coâ€"operation between municipal and provincial law enforcement officers, As a general rule the fault may be traced to political control when this coâ€"operation is absent. The truth, however, is that the proposed legislation would not assure any coâ€"operation. It would simply turn over the control of local police to a politâ€" ical servant at Toronto. It is unthinkable that Ontario would tolerate any such move. The proposal for Toronto distatorship for the police of Ontario has been opposed in the Legislature. Hon,. Mr. Roebuck has been asked to withdraw it. Any legislature that passes such legislation will be dealt with by the people at the next opportunity. It is against every British instinct and principle. To the question that The people of Ontario should wake to the real danger with which they are faced at the present moment. The autocratic and brutal attitude of the present government has surely been apparent from the moment the administration took office. Never in the history of the province has any governâ€" ment shown such a total disregard for popular feeling. Is it any wonder that people are beginning to question whether the administration in its folly is not actually aiming at a regular dictatorship. What is the first move made when such dictatorship is planned? The answer is, the control of the army and the police. In the case of Ontario there is no army, but if the police of all the province were actually under the control of the administration the dictators imagine they could do just as they wished. Recently the present Ontario government has shown its hand by attempting to put through a measure bringing all the police of the province, municipal police included, under the direct control of the party in power. Under the proposed legislation while townships, towns and cities, would have to pay their police, the latter would be under the direct orders of a political appointee at Toronto. Hon. A. W. Roebuck excuses his proposed legislation by the in the North is the installation O0I a FOVETNIMNEIIL TauUl0Q that will â€"relay Canadian programmes to all parts of the North. ~ ‘Dhe area concerned embraces about fourâ€"fifths of the province of Ontario and yet little has been done to accommodate the thousands of radio owners in this immense territory. The North pioneered in the matter of radio and so deserves even more consideration than other sections, Beâ€" cause there are so many radio enthusiasts here, attempt has been made to turn this fact into a means of making money for a few interested. Under the guise of filling a want until the government could get around to building the necessary station attempt has been made to foist little and inadequate local stations. _ Perhaps it is natural for those making money out of these toy stations to bend every effort to hold their moneyâ€"making monopoly even though the public suffer. The public however, will be foolish indeed if these people are allowed to grind their toy axes to the public detriment. What the North needs is to have available for radio owners the programmes for which they have been paying in comâ€" mon with the rest of Canada. A government radio relay station at sqme point near Sudbury, or North Bay, accordâ€" ing to experts, would make radio available to all in the imâ€" mense area from North Bay and Sudbury as far north as Moosonee and from Northwestern Quebec to Sault Ste. Marie If a Toronto station can be increased in power and efficiency to cover the same territory, well and good. . That will suit the people of the North,. All they are asking for is a square deal in the matter of radio. There was a time perhaps, when any sort of radio station seemed desirable for any centre. The centres that have suffered from any sort of a radio station are not at all anxious for any more. The attitude of the North towards radio stations has materially changed. Some years ago when The Advance suggested that a point north of Sudbury seemed the logical place, according to the experts as a site for a government radio station, there was general objection. Nearly every centre thought itself the ideal location for a radio station. Now the general attiâ€" tude is that a government radio station is badly needed, and that it should be installed at once in the location where it will prove of.greatest service to the largest territory.. â€"If the radio owners of the North can bring the government to see the great need for a government radio relay station for the North, then the government may be trusted to have experts select the best site for the needed station. â€"â€"Thereâ€"are a few who seem to think that because the govâ€" ernment has suggested that radio will be made more fully available to the North, there is no more to be said or done. The fact is that now is the very time to keep the matter alive and prominent. There should be careful study of the situation by the government‘s experts and such study would no doubt result in it being shown that what is really needed is a government radio relay station for the Northâ€"that nothing else will meet the needs. A government radio relay station is needed for the North. That fact should be reâ€" peated and emphasized and kept to the fore until the need is filled.

Now, they can scarcely do that. Or can they? Hon. A. W. Roeâ€" buck has been using Latin in his speeches on the Hydro Elecâ€" tric Commission, and if Latin is abolished how can people understand Mr. Roebuck‘s speeches? Or is that necessary? Hon. Mr. Roebuck said that something or other was "ab initio." Just like that. Now "ab initio‘ means "from the beginning." to use English. Why didn‘t Mr. Roebuck say "from the beginning?" Now, why bring that up? J. V. McAree, who writes the famous fourth column on * the editorial page of The Mail and Empire says that Mr. Roeâ€" buck should not have used the Latin phrase, "ab initio," but ‘ that he should have said "ab origine," which also means "from the beginning." Such a phrase would certainly be| more appropriate and it has a native touch as well. ! The Advance thinks, however that Hon. Mr. Roebuck might | well have used the Latin phrase "ab ovo," which is another Latin way of saying "from the beginning." Literally "Ab ovo" means "from the egg," and it was the whole point, if | any, of Mr. Roebuck‘s speech that the whole trouble started from an egg. a bad egg. It may be said by some mean men that Hon. Roebuck was | using Latin in his address simply to show his superiorit,y.I That is not likely. It will be noted that he used only phrases beginning with "a" Before the next election relieves him of the necessity he may get as far as "reductio ad absurdum," "vae victus." and "zonam perdidit." . But the gentle reader mss on on e omm dn mm mm mm o mm â€" on initio." Just like that. N beginning." to use English "from the beginning?" No J. V. McAree, who write ‘ the editorial page of The M buck should not have used that he should have said "‘from the beginning." S if the Hydro Commission is the kind of outfit that Hon. Mr. Roebuck suggests it is, then no municipality would care to enter any partnership with such a group. If Hon. Mr. Roeâ€" buck is mistaken or misleading others, then it would be weli to steer clear of anything with which he is concerned. Although no provision seems to be made in the estimates for the building of a new town hall in Timmins that does not necessarily mean that the idea is dropped altogether. There is one way whereby a new town hall may be financed without any provision for financing being necessary this year. That method is indeed the only sensible one that can be considered at present. It means the paying for the town hall by debentures spread over a term of years. The objecâ€" tion to this debenture plan is that is would be difficult to sell the debentures. If the town council has a plan whereby the debentures are taken up and the necessity removed for placing them on the market, the building of a new town hall would be warranted. If the cost has to come out of curâ€" rent revenues or the debentures have to be carried for years by the town itself, the new town hall will not be practical at Oliva Dionne, father of the famous quintuplets, is being frequently mentioned in the newspapers these days and most references add a word about Mr. Dionne being accompanied by his manager. It doesn‘t seem proper that the father of the quintuplets should have a manager. If there were any Jusâ€" tice in the world Mr. Dionne would have a syndicate to 100k after him. Recent official figures show that the population of Toronto has decreased 11,858.. Of the 11,858 about 11,500 came to Timmins to look for a job. A number of newspapers at the present moment are comâ€" plaining about the garrulous style of some parliamentarians. It is argued that if some of the talkative legislators would say nothing, much value, time and money would be saved. Yes, and if this suggestion were followed, there would be a great howl rising to the sky about the silent legislators. "You let that injustice or that piece of crookedness pass, and you never said a word?" would be the cry. It is a hard world, if you don‘t weaken. The Toronto Telegram suggests that it is a ridiculous work for a 200â€"lb policeman to be chalking up breaches of the traffic laws by motorists. Not half as ridiculous as that full grown adult motorists who know the law and the regulaâ€" tions should need to be checked up in this day and generation! the necessity he may get as far as "reductio ad aAbsurdum," "vae victus," and "zonam perdidit." But the gentle reader may exclaim:â€""Ha! But The Advance got all these Latin phrases from "Words and Phrases from the Greek, Latin and Modern Foreign Languages, Arranged Alphabetically, with English Translations," to be found in any modern dicâ€" tionary." All right! What about Hon. Mr. Roebuck? You will find his little ab initio only the eighth down in the list. Hon. Mr. Roebuck‘s Latin family of Ab‘s are quite interâ€" esting and impressive. It would appear that like the Chinaâ€" man the first name is used as the last. There is Ab Hoc and Ab Hac, Ab Intra and Ab Extra, not to mention dear old Ab Urbe. Then there is Ab Officio, and Hon. Mr. Roebuck will yet learn what that means. And he won‘t need to wait for Ab Aeterno for this either. Perhaps the liveliest memâ€" ber of the Ab family is in some way related to Mr. Roebuck, especially if the Attorneyâ€"General is forever wedded to that idea of being dictator to all the police. The Ab referred to is no less than that old friend, Ab absurdo. This Ab may well take the bow. A friend of The Advance calls attention to the fact that in printing the name of that famous village in Wales known for short as Llanfair P.G." The Advance omitted the letter "n" A checkâ€"up reveals the fact that the omission was the work of the intelligent compositor. In the copy the "n" was duly inserted east of a "y" and west of two "I‘s" No one seems to dispute the fact that that "n" should be in its place in that 57â€"letter name; that is, no one but the intelligent comâ€" positor who deliberately left it out. He does such things, and short of perfection in the world he will have his way in the world he will have his way for a while. It shows, howâ€" ever, how carefully The Advance is read when readers note the omission of one little "n" in a word of 57 letters. To the most of people the omission of the "n" did not seriously harm the word. As the name has appeared absolutely correctly in every detail of its fiftyâ€"seven letters in more than one recent issue of The Advance, the correction of the "n" is made hereâ€" with without reproduction of the name in full.
