There ls a proposal that. private radl should be allowed to form a chain of Ll) Canada. The idea, of course, is to turn Nothing can be done for the moment to pro- tect the isolated beaver colonies during the pres- cut open season. but it might be well for the De- partment of Fish and Game to study the matter and see if some regulations could not be embodied in the law to meet cases like these referred to. One suggestion is that some form of Sanctuary for wild animals might be declared in the districts around Northern towns where the animals were harmless and inoffensive and constituted so not- able a centre of interest. In recent years the De- partment. of Fish and Game has shown so keen and clever an interest in conservation of wild life that The Advance is encouraged to believe that something will be done about it. Both the local game warden and the president of the Porcupine Fish and Game Protective As- sociation suggested the answer to the immediate problem when they indicated on Saturday last that a broad spirit of sportsmanship should be exercised. Trappers might well centre on the districts where there are large numbers of beaver wâ€"especially those areas where the animals are causing actual damage and loss. In the area close to Timmins the beaver are doing no harm, interâ€" ierring with no one. but actually making centres of deep interest for large numbers of lovers of nature and the wild. If the trappers show that; they also have intelligent thought for conservaâ€" tion, all will be well. On the other hand. if there is any ruthless spirit of destruction shown. it will be remembered. a nuisance and an interference with farming, lumbering and other industries. There does not seem .to be any particular danger of the open season resulting in any serious depletion of the beaver in this province. After the season is over there will be enough beaver left in Ontario gen- erally to attract tourists and interest nature- lovers. If the beaver trapped in the open season are taken from areas where the animals are num- erous, no harm will be done. Indeed, there will actually be benefit derived. The case, however. will be altogether different, if there is any center- . ing on the isolated colonies where a single trap- per can wipe out all the beaver without exceeding the limit under his license. A little enquiry shows that the Ontario Fish and Game Department was fully justified in permit~ ting an open season for trapping beaver. In re- cent ye'a1‘3"there has been a large increase in the number of beaver in Ontario. In some sections the increase in the number of beaver has proved Usually when the question of conservation comes up, special thought is given to the tourists. It is pointed out that (deer and other Wild life is a particular attraction to tour- ists. Often the remark is made that if wild life is killed off, the tourist trade will cease to find a country of much interest. Last week. however, The Advance was given a strong argument for conservation without a single thought for tour- ists. The emphasis instead was laid on the loss of interest to the people of Timmins and district. The question arose in reference to the open seaâ€" son for trapping beaver. One local gentleman saw in the open season the danger of wiping out all the beaver colonies in this district. There are twenty or more such colonies of beaver within a comparatively short distance of Timmins, and these colonies have proved a very decided attrac- tion for the pCOple of the town. Scores of people, in Timminsâ€"men. women and childrenâ€"have been in the habit in recent months of visiting certain spots near here where there are beaver colonies and deriving unusual pleasure from see- ing the animals at work and play. The beaver seem to realize that their visitors are friendly and ' . Well-intentioned and know enough to keep a prop- ' er distance. None of the colonies are large. One particular favourite visiting place only a few miles from town has only ten beaver. The fear is that a few trappers might easilyâ€"and lawfullyâ€"clear out all these centres of deep interest and leave the country very much poorer without very great profit to the trappers. Because these beaver col- onies are isolated, the danger of their total exâ€" tinction is a serious one. It would be regrettable indeed, if anything of that sort should occur. It would mean that it would be years before other 0 beaver colonies would take their place. Indecd,.t it might be that the district would be cleared for, . ever of these interesting little animals.

On several oc- casions the Legion has done similar service. It is well worth while. The more Canadians see of the New Canadians the better they will esteem them. and the more the New Canadians meet their older brothers the better they will like them. Old and New Canadians working together can face the world without fear or doubt. If Canadians, old and new, were proud of the also a thrill for all in the response of the repre- sentative of the New Canadians. “I am sure that the New Canadians will be ready to support their adopted country in peace," said Mr. Nicolas Lucyshin. “and to take up arms for her in the event of war." To work for Canada in peace. and to light for Canada in war. Isn‘t that the best summary of loyal citizenship condensed into a sentence? At the last regular meeting of the Timmins Lions Club some twenty New Canadians were ,guests for the occasion. Probably nothing else 5 that the Lions club has done in town has given I such striking justification for the Lions calling . themselves a “service" club. The meeting at which ' those New Canadians met was “service" to the community in the finest sense of the word. On the one hand it showed the New Canadians that their fellow citizens have interest and friendliness ii‘or them, while on the other hand it gave Can-i adians in general striking testimony of the good-i ) / their adoption. During the years The Advance has 3 had occasion to meet the New Canadians in their! own events at their own hallsâ€"4n concerts, ban-‘ quets and other affairsâ€"and has been impressed not only with the generous hospitality and friend- 'liness of these new citizens, but also with'their strong loyalty and devotion to their new land. E that these people can hold affection for the land 1 of their fathers, and yet give a deeper devotion to the land of their sons. Sometimes, indeed, the New Canadians seem to shame some of those of Folder Canadian citizenship, by the extent of their]; loyalty and heart interest in this new land. Any- 1: thing that makes the loyal attitude of the New!- Canadians more widely known and appreciated! is a genuine service to the whole community to, Canada. : The Lions were particularly fortunate in theirll‘ selection of a speaker for their meeting on Thurs- day night. There are few citizens held in as high regard by all as Mr. E. L. Longmore, and few,’ indeed. who can present a case with as much logic and force as he can. In a word, Mr. Longmore's address may be sulmmed up as proving that a‘ great nation can not be built upon racial super- 1 iority or upon racial lines, but that the only true It basis is manhood and womanhood of the right; C type. working for democracy, liberty, righteous- l E ness and progress. :f 1 I I ronp 20 The government will be very remiss indeed. in 11" its duty if it allows any further latitude to private 1 1 stations. In this, it will not be able to Shirk re-} 7 sponsibility by laying the blame on the Canad-, ian Broadcasting Corporation. The latter 15 only the creatu1e of the government, and the gove111- ! ment will find that the people in general very, properly hold the govemment directly responsible' for whatever may be done by the CBC. 1 One of the p1oblems featured by the Leade1-f ship League is the railway burden 011 the people1 of Canada. That is a problem that has 1eached‘ a fai1ly desperate phase. A great part of theI p1oblem arises f1om the fact that some of the: I railways are government- owned and others are' v- I the 1ailway p1oblem at this late date. The Leade1- ship League l1oweve1, could do a genuine public, C se1vice by taking effective measu1es to see that by fostering the private radio stations a serious ‘b' problem is not built up in regard to radio. Insteadi of more securely fastening private radio stations ‘1" 011 the country by considering chain plans orla‘ anything like that, oppo1tunity should be taken to i111p1ess on the private stations that they are 3 what they heralded themselves as beingâ€"simply stop- gaps until Canada could extend its system of government-owned stations to serve the coun- [M try.

' NE W CA NA DIANS 3 The Northern Tribune, of Kapuskasing, urges the establishment of a training field for airmen 5 at Kapu‘skasing. The Northern Tribune points pout that the men of the North have shown a .lparticular aptitude as airmen. Training could 3 be carried on at Kapuskasing under most practi- t, cal conditions and comparatively free from espion~ .iage. Reference is also made to the fact air de- ifence is the most practical and effective possible 5 for this country. and likely to be the most needed A type of service in case of trouble. The effort of . ! Germany to establish an air bas> at Iceland surely ,ggives emphasis ot the case presented by The Nor- ': thern Tribune. No thinking person can deny that .fin case of any war the North of Canada will need fparticular defence. Some of the danger undoubt- ‘edly will come from the air, and so the suggestion yof The Northern Tribune appears to be particu- Elarly timely. There will be danger. though. from ‘other sources than enemy aircraft. Defence will be required for the resources in mines and in {other industries in the North. There will have to l’be defence from sabotage and from destruction of bridges and other public works. The more de- fence against these things the less likely they are to occur. This is why The Advance advocates the [strengthening of the militia. There should be proper quarters in the North for the training of men to defend the North should the worst come '\ U Mr. and Mrs. E. Malom Cd from Toronto. where took special treatment at hospital.

If there is any truth in this excuse, there should be immediate meas- ures taken to make the line safe for the subjects of the King who use it. No loyal subject would ask that the life of the King be endangered by travel over an unsafe strip of railway. but no truly loyal son of Canada will tolerate the risking of the lives of good Canadians who may have to travel over this strip of Canadian-owned railway. One reason given by the gov ing the whole North in the ma of the royal visit to Canada is to the worst.
