The people who are conâ€" stantly trading in the soâ€"called penny stocks may be aware of the widespread development of new mining properties in recent years., but it is possible that the public as a whole have continued to think of the gold mining industry in *erms of the mines at Porcupinge, Kirkâ€" land Lake and.other cld camps. : "The higer valuation of gold has, of course been a factor in improving the chances of new development and the rehabilitation of some old properties where the margin between production costs and the old selling price of gold: left ncthing over for profit; Ths high-! er average prices, too, have caused some Oof the older mines to mill ore which otherwise would have been left aside as unprofitable. .

A tax of 7 per cent. on the excess above $3,000,000 is the highest impost in the reprinted bill which contains four major classifications of taxation as compared with the six in the old measâ€" sure. One important factor is that in the two bills, both old and new, asbestos mines do not come under the special taxation. These taxes are rectroactive to Jan. 1 of this year, although the bill, of course, still has to be adopted by the Provincial Legislature before it becomes an actuality. Before it was reprinted, the sid hbill had a 6 per cent. tax on the excess above $1,000,000 up to $2,000,000 and one of 7 per cent. on the excess above $2,000,000 up to $3,000,000. Ths measâ€" Hre also contained provisions for an impost of 8 per cent. on the excess above $3,000,000 up to $4,000,000 and one of 10 per cent. on the excess of $4,000,000 both of which have now been dropped.

The tickets originate from the Wellington Branch of the Legion, and are in no way connected with the branch here.. The officers of the Timâ€" mins branch ask that those who have received these tickets return them at cnce to the president or any officer. The reason for the action of not allowâ€" ing these tickets to be sold here is the fact that the Iscal branch cnly sanctions such sale of tickets among its memâ€" bers for relief purposes. It is felt that the draw arranged by the Wellington branch, the profits of which are to cover trips to the Vimy Pilgrimage, is not in keeping with the Legion policy. Much better uses could 5se mads by the Welâ€" lington branch of the money collected. Another reason given is that the Timâ€" mins branch was not consulted in the matter and in this way the selling of 1 these tickets locally has not the sancâ€" 1 tion of the branch officers.

We feel, however, that such a condition bears more hardly upon the exâ€"service man than upon the rest of the comâ€" munity and that, even with a return to normal conditions, it would be very difficult indeed for the unemployed exâ€" "The Canadian Legion of the British Empire Service League has, for some time past, been giving serious considâ€" eration to the problem of the unemâ€" ployed exâ€"service men in Canada, parâ€" ticularly those who, by reason of age or physical disability, are handicapped in securing employment. We welcome this opportunity of discussing the proâ€" blem before a body charged with full powers of investigation, and submit the following observations, based upon our investigation of the problem, and inforâ€" mation â€" which we have collected throughout Canada:â€"â€" (A)â€"Unemployment Generally: graphs. All are asked to clip these out for future reference of what the Legion really is doing in the way of creating better conditions for the unemployed exâ€"servicemen. . The report is one preâ€" sented by Brig. General Alex Ross, Dominion Fresident of the Canadian Legion. The first article follows: DATEâ€"In view of the fact that it is necessary that the Pilgrimage should be held in the Summer, which is the busy season in Atlantic shipping, it has been found almost impossible, if the Prilâ€" grimage assumes large proportions, to arrange for the necessary shipping to reach France to carry out the unveiling on the first of July, particularly if the ships wait for us in a French port. This holding of ships is absolutely necessary if the main body is to be transported to England, as desired. Accordingly, it will be necessary to fix the date for the unveiling for later in July when the castward ccean traffic is lighter than it is in the last two weeks in June. Therefore we agreed that in order to obtain the holding of ships for three days in France that about July 15th or 16th be the sailing date from Canada. By semng ‘A later date we are assured ys in France wihh shins- i . Next week more reasons will be given followed by the Legion survey. More News of Vimy Pilgrimage Owing to conditions arising over which the Pilgrimage committee had no control some changes have been made in the Vimy Pilgrimage for 1936. The general plan such as ship accommodaâ€" tion remain the same. "Immediate Relaâ€" tives" is defined as viceman, wife, children, father, mother, sisters and brothers, and husband subâ€" stituted in the case of exâ€"service woâ€" men." By this ruling it will be seen that only direct relatives are eligible for the special fare etc. Then follows the reason for the change of date. | (c) There is a large proportion of un â€" skilled labour. Thousands of boys beâ€" tween the years of 16, 17 and 18, or thereabouts, rushed from school to the forces. For years, important years, their every move was ordered and they returned grown men totally unacquaintâ€" ed with the struggle for economic exisâ€" tence, and yet, class conscious in their pride as fighting men, unprepared for the new discipline of economic training. They have never had a chance. (@) So many suffer from war disaâ€" bility. According to the figures for 1934 there were then in Canada 77,855 disability pensioners, of whom 50,667 were in receipt of pensions assessed at less than 40 p.c. and with average penâ€" sion, exclusive of dependents, of $210.00 per annum. WithOout quarrelling with the degree of assessment it will be obâ€" vious that an unskilled workman, 47 years of age, and*handicapped by war disability even to the extent of 20 p.c. is severely handicapped in securing employment in industry. (b) By enlisting for service he gave the best formative years of his life to the service of his country, and while he may have returned physically unimâ€" paired, yet he sacrificed opportunity. (2) The unemployed exâ€"service man has to meet this competition, subject to the following handicaps:â€" (a) The average age of the group is believed to be approximately 47 years. (1) During these years of depression there has grown up a great army of youth, claiming, and rightfully clamâ€" curing, for admission to trade and inâ€" dustry wherein they can work out their destinies, as they are entitled to do. They are young, vigorous, generally well educated and capable of rendering efficient service. service man to be speedily or profitably absorbed into industry. In short, we feel that the problem of the employâ€" ment of exâ€"service men is a problem quite different in many respects from the general problem.
