The larger part of the wages even went to parts of the Provinte for food supplies, clothing and houschold requirements. Only about fifteen per cent. or less remained here. The Bsard of Trade had been very aciive in urging the government to put the road to Pamour in first class shape in order to avoid the necessity for the establishment of a townsite there. The establishment of a townsite would mean further debentures and public debt as well as the duplication of services, Timâ€" mins, Schumacher and South Porcuâ€" pine would lose the added residents and ratepayers to help relieve the already tco heavy burden of taxation under which they labor. The first petition for a direct road from Pamour to Matheson was in 1921 and was based on the desire to foster agricultural possibilities around Mathâ€" eson in order to have farm produce and vegetables brought to the mining areas. The time for development was when markets were available for such proâ€" duce. Eightyâ€"seven carloads of vegeâ€" tables had already been brought to Timmins in one year, in addition to what was brought in by truck. The government wanted the considâ€" ered opinion of the businessmen thrcughout the country on that and other problems That was why the Board of Trade Act was passed. The development of the "real gold" of the North could be obtained, conâ€" cluded Mtr. Langdon, by the coâ€"operaâ€" tion of the mining, timbering, agriculâ€" tural and tourist trade industries.
