Serious Loss from Fires in Dommion (By J. Groves Smith) In Canada and the United States the week of October 3 to 9, which is next week, is being observed as Fire Preâ€" vention Week. The Dominion Fire Preâ€" vention Association in coâ€"operation with provincial fire marshals, local chiefs and others are coâ€"operating with civic organizations in the furtherance of the aims of fire prevention. About 350 people are burned to death and a much larger number are injured by fire in Canada every year. The reâ€" corded loss of property by fire in Canaâ€" da during the 15 years, 1921 to 1936, exâ€" ceeded $650,000,000. In other words, at our present burning rate, approximately one human life is sacrificed and $110,â€" 000 worth of property is destroyed every day in the year. Fire is no respecter of persons. Every man has a responsibility towards his neighbours and that responsibility should cause every rightâ€"thinking perâ€" son to pause and consider what he owes the community in which he lives. We owe it to ourselves but in a greater degree to our fellow citizens to permit no condition to exist upon our premises that will invite a visitation by fire. A great majority of fires are so easy to prevent that it is certainly a moral crime to tolerate the things which bring them about. Cities and towns, like individuals, reap what they sow. To permit the erection of fireâ€"traps, to fail to proâ€" vide an abundant and reliable water supply and means of using it or to fail to apply the everyday rules of fire prevention,. is to constantly face a menâ€" ace of heavy fires and sweeping conâ€" flagrations. ire Prevention Week to Observed Next Week.

He meant that he was always of the same policy and beliefâ€"ithe North. So it can be said of Chas. V. Gallagher. It doesn‘t matter what govâ€" errment may be ruling at Toronto, his eyes are focussed on the North and his ideas are for a bigger and better North to live in. A man who has spent more than twentyâ€"five years in the North and travelled over it by canoe, plane and train, and surveying it, is the right man to elect in this riding. Chas. V. Gallagher is such a man. He knows the needs of the North. He has worked in the Northâ€"as land surveyor, engineer, prospector and as public man. He is the friend of the workingman, the settler, the farmer. The town of Timmins and townshin of Tisdale and all other towns and rural sections in South Cochrane are all the same to C. V. Gallagher. Elect him and get a square deal to all alike. He has served the people of Tisdale for several years. He has surveyed a large part of the North. Elect him to serve you as MP.P. for South Cochrane. Gallagher knows what is needed. Keep on the right road to progress.

Gallagher, Libera candidate for the ridng of South Coch rane. Mr. Kester referred to the radi( speech of the Conservative candidate J. P.

(Continued From Page Two) ‘"Why shouldn‘t the people of Canada control the Bank of Canada?" said Mr Slaght. "Ask this newâ€"found leader that." He wanted for his backing policy. Fought Treaty Referring to the trade agreement with the United States accomplished by Mr. Mackenzie King within six weeks of his election, Mr. Slaght emâ€" phasized that Mr. Rowe had fought the treaty and voted against it. Mr. Slaght continued to review at length the beneâ€" fits of that treaty to the people o1 Canada in general, andto the people of Ontario. From Ottawa statistics he quoted figures to show the increased moneys received for Canadian goods and proâ€" duce, and at the same time the money saved to Canadian buyers, particularly farmers, in purchases of a variety of inâ€" dustrial prducts. Mr. Slaght criticized Mr. Rowe for backing the policy of "No truck or trade with the Yankees." That slogan, he declared, was harmful to this country, and he outlined the extent of United States trade within the borders of Canada. Tommy Church Not Communist Choice He emphasized the importance Of amity between Canada and the United States and referred to statements by President Roosevelt and Cordell Hull, secretary of State, ‘stressing this thought.

In an effort to show the working men that they had received more benefits from the Liberal governments than from the Conservaâ€" tive he touched on the fact that the Hepburn government was bearing the cost of the Old Age Pension and had exterded Mothers‘ Allowances to widows with one child under sixteen years of age and to wives who had been deserted for a period over three years. The Hepburn government had placed itself on record as being in favour of a pension for the blind and was prepared to contribute proportionately to it. The same legislation was turned down by the Bennett government in April, 1935, and was only brought about through the coâ€"operation of the Liberal governâ€" ments at Ottawa and Toronto.
