Canada‘s Output of Gold Rapidly Climbing up Figures recently tabulated showing the number of mines in the world poâ€" ducing over 100000 ounces of gold per year are very intéresting. Out of 65 gold mines in this class. there are 46 in the British and no less than 10 in Canada, with practical certainty of others in Canada being added to the list in the comparatively near futurs. Canada‘s growth in production of golid is particularly notcworthy. Twenty years ago the gold output of Canada was but 9 cent of that of South Africa; ten years ago it was equal to over 18 per cent; and last year it had further increased to 39 per cent. In the latter year Canadian producâ€" tion also surpassed that of continenâ€" tal United States by 582,113 ounces, worth $20,373,055, â€" Below will be found a special list of fiftyâ€"five hardrock gold mines the world, each which produced in exâ€" cess of 100,000 ounces in the last year for which statistics are available. â€" Such operations as Bulolo, estimated to produce around 150,000 ounces anâ€" ually, have not been included, although that particular, enterprise, in New Guinea, under British protectorate, adds one more to the many mines on the list in countries comprising the Briâ€" tish Commenwealth of Nations. Only 9 per cent 20 years Ago, Last Year 39 per cent. Fortyâ€" six Mines in Empire Yield Over 100,000 Ounces per Year. Canada Has Ten in This Class. Hollinger High on List. The outstanding fact gathered from andiysis of this is that out of the fiftyâ€" five total no less than fortyâ€"six of the mines are under British control, dividâ€" ed as follows: Transvaal, thirtyâ€"two; Canada, ten; Gold Coast, two; Australâ€" ia, one; and Rhodesia, one. Canada‘s ten are Hollinger, tenth on the list; Lake Shore, eleventh; Noranâ€" da, seventeenth; McIntyre, twentyâ€"fifâ€" th; â€" Wrightâ€"Hargreaves, twentyâ€"sevâ€" enth; Dome, thirtyâ€"first; Lamaguse, fortyâ€"sixth; Hudson Bay, fortyâ€"eighth; Teckâ€"Hughes, fiftyâ€"first; and Braâ€" lorne, Tiftyâ€"fourth. Continental United States has three mines:; Homestake, which is fifth on the list; Empire Star, fortyâ€"fifth; and Idahoâ€"Maryland, fortyâ€"seventh. Alaska has oneâ€"Alaska Juneau, fortyâ€"third on the list; and Philippine Islands two, all credited to United Statesâ€"Balatoc, thirtyâ€"sixth, and Benquet, fortyâ€"first, making total gold mines credited to the United States, six. The remaining three mines on the Mst are credited to Sweden, Belgian Congo and Brazil, the latter‘s being the S, John del. Rey, oldest gold mine in the world and one of the deepest.

Of these we append a list of fiftyâ€" nine mines, with production last year varying from a high of 94,012 ounces for Pamour to low of 2,072 for Normeâ€" tal. It will be noticed that several on the list have not yet struck their full production stride and that others are contemplating increases in mill capatâ€" There are several other mines just starting milling plants, or have already commenced millinz, but have not run long enough to permxt a fair estimate of what may be expected.

Preventive Medicine Discussed at Convention Windsor, June 17â€"The annual meet inz of the alumni of the Ontario Colâ€" lege of Pharmacy drew the largest atâ€" tendance in recent years More than 500 pharmacists hear Lieut. Col. George A. Drew, K. C. laud the high ethical standards of the profession. Wesley C. MacAuley, professor of pharmacy in the Ontario College, disâ€" cussed "New Medicinals in Pharmacy." His speech was a technical survey of current literature on his subject, with .:J;-;ecm.l attention to sulphanilmide and sulphapyrindine. These new substances, said Prof. Mcâ€" Auley rank in importance with that arsphenamine as the greatest advance in chemotherapeutics. The particular field in which these substances are most useful to medicine is in treatment of infections resulting from "incapsulated bacteria" which inâ€" cludes streptococci, meningiiis, purâ€" pural fever, and other infections. As research and experiment is still being carried on extensively, it is beâ€" lieved that the near future will bring astounding advances in preventive medicine as the uses of these druss beâ€" come more accurately known.

Citawa, June 21â€"Proposals to all2»â€" viate unemployment and to the needs of youth throughout Canada with referenc»s t>o chealth, education, marriage and cthor matters affecting their weliare, were outlined at Ottaws in a brief presented to Hon. Narman McLesd Rogers, Minister of Labour, by representatives of the National Counci} of Young Men‘s Christian Asâ€" sociations of Canada. The brief wa* gigned by Sidnsy Smith, president of the University of Manitoba, and presiâ€" dent of the Nitional Counzil of Young Men‘s Christian Assoviations of Canâ€" ada, and by Richard S. Hasking, generâ€" al secretary. Brief Presented at Ottawa on Behalf of Young Men "Our proposals are based primarily upon the fact that ncthing is more viâ€" tal to the existence of Canada as a naticn than the employment of all her human resources," a statement pointed out. It was deplorable, the brief went on, that the value of ysuth is recognized in times of war but not in times of peace. "We in Canada will be wise to develop without delay, peaceâ€"time democratic alternatives to totalitarian nationalistic youth programmes based on war psychology," it stated. "Unemployment is not a temporary emergency to be met soley by hasty expedients," the brief â€" continued. "Longâ€"term research, planning and experiment, and comprehensive. meaâ€" sures are necessary." The statement indicated that work is the only permanent and satisfactory solution to the problem which now face youth and urged that programmes for unemployed youth be well organized, that participants in the programme not be segrated from other persons, that they work under normal conditions of home residence and secial life and that there be some renumeration for the work undertaken. The proposals enumerated in the brief included the establishment of voâ€" cational information service, the launâ€" chiny of Dominion and Provincial Government work projects, the stimuâ€" lation of employment by existing indusâ€" try, the formation of special youth secâ€" tions of Employment Services of Canâ€" ada, and the enactments and enforceâ€" ment of legislation on maximum hours and minimum wages. The brief also recommended that A Dominion Youth Bureau should be esâ€" tablished for the protection and develâ€" opment of youth, to advise in the selâ€" sction and participation in youth proâ€" jects, and to carry on a continuous research into the needs of youth with special reference to health, education, employment, marriage, crime and its prevention and cure, and other matters affecting the welfare of youth. The brief also supported the recomâ€" mendations of the Cafiadian Welfare Council Conference held in Ottawa last January that a MDominionâ€"Provincial Conference should be called to consider the problem of migrants and nonâ€"resiâ€" dents. It was indicated that the estabâ€" lishment of camps for. nonâ€"resident youths was not the solution to the proâ€" blem nor was the enlistment of such men for military purposes. "some way must be found without delay of using the energies and talents of youth constructively and of preventâ€" ing the cost to the nation which will be caused through continued deterioration and possiblé loss of such valuable reâ€" source," the brief contended. The wholeâ€"hearted coâ€"operation of National Council of Young Men‘ Christian Association of Canada was offered the Government in an effort 4C cope with the problem. The proposals in the brief were prepared by a Young Men‘s Committee in response to geâ€" mands from many of the 75 Youn:3 Men‘s Christian Associations through~â€" out Canada. Among many prominent men from Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal who were with the delegation that submitâ€"~ ted the brief were W. R. Cook, Secreâ€" tary of the Young Men‘s Committee of the National Council of Young Men‘s Christian Associations of Canada, and R. E. G. Davis, secretary of the Canâ€" adian Institute on Economics and Polâ€" itics, who is also on the staff of thae Naâ€" tional Council. Huntingdon Gleaner: An excited woman advised police by telephone that "there‘s a car sitting on the sideâ€" walk." A cruiser car was dispatched to investigate. The report: "The owner just bought a car and ne was afraid it would get hit if he 1left it in the street. So he parked it on the sideâ€" walk." New Baptist Minister for Rouyn and Noranda Many in town and district will oe interes:ed in the following from The Rouynâ€"Noranda FPress last week:â€""neyv. Stanley Welling:on, who for nine years has conducted the work of the Baptist church in Rouyn and Ncranda, is leavâ€" ing the twin cities at the end of the month to take up evangelistic work. Mis work will take him first to Val d‘Or, where he will assist his brother, and later he will visit other towns in the north, as well as Toronto and comâ€" munities of the south>rn part of the province. His possible successor is Rov. mun‘ities of ue southgrn part C (h? province. His possible successor is Rov. Russel SBlade, brother of Roev. H. Sado 6f Timmins. Mr. Slade, who graduates this year from the Toronto Baptist somirary, has for several years worked guring the summer in connection with the Baptiit church. Mr. Wellingion, according to present plans, will deliver his farewell mes:ago on Bunday, Juns 25th. It is with great regret that his congregation and many friends ‘n ecmmunity look upon his departure Kiwanis Emphasize Value of Newspapers to Communities Boston, Thursday, June 22â€""The most unsuccessful newspaper in the United States does more for the supâ€" port of its community than the finest community ever does for the support of its newspaper‘!" Such was the statement made toâ€" day by Karl Lehmann, of Tavares, Fla., publicity chairman for Kiwanis Interâ€" national, to convention delegates,. He explained that the value of Kiwanis news is to educate a community in the service organization‘s civic and welfare programs. Other Subjects Discussed by Convention: Crime, Trafâ€" fic Safety, Narcotics. "The newspaper," he said, "reflects all community life, religious, educaâ€" tional and civic. Therefore the averâ€" age citizen is indebted to his newspaper which constantly brings to him the news of local, state, national and inâ€" ternational affairs. Free Space "Every civic, religious and educaâ€" tional group in a city is in the habit of coming to the newspaper publisher, asking him to give away free the ons commodity he has for sale. This is space! We would ask of no other form of business in our community to give away free that which gives a liveâ€" lihood. We would not go into a bakery and ask the baker to give us a loaf of his bread. Yet the newspaper owner is asked to give away the space he has to sell; perhaps not realizing that this commodity, like any other merchanâ€" dise, costs money to produce," he said. Kiwanis does not need to sell itseif to its own member nor does it need to to seek publicity to glorify its work, Mr. Lermann estimated. Kiwanis pubâ€" licity must be really educational. Crime Conference The $15,000,000,000 annual «crime bill in the U.S8. represents an expendiâ€" ture for the greatest wholesale lawâ€" lessness of any nation in the civilized world, Kiwanians were told toâ€"day. Idleness and selfishness were anâ€" nounced as two of the greatest contriâ€" buting factors in crime. Poverty and lack of employment were seen as conâ€" ditions breeding all types of crimes. In the following ways the conferâ€" ence recommended that Kiwanis clubs cooperate in commuity law observance and enforcement. 1. Creation of respect for law among all citizens. Acquaint people with the actual cost of crime and the problem confronting the United States. Overâ€" come indifference by creating sound public sentiment for enforcement. 2. Close up public nuisances such as roadhouses, gambling joints and houses of prostitution. 3'. Seek the elimination of delays in criminal court procedure, 4. Help secure for prisons and other institutions officials who are penoloâ€" gists so these reformatories will be conducted in a scientific and humaniâ€" tarian nanner, yet not with overâ€"emâ€" phasis on sentimentalism., 5. Defeat politicians who tamper with criminal proceedinzs and thereby break up the politicoâ€"crime influences 6. Create public demands for stopâ€" ping paroles for desperate criminals. Too many enemies of society are seâ€" curing politicallyâ€"controlled pardons. Traffic Programs A series of speakers describing trafâ€" fic deaths all agreed that there were better automobiles, safer highways, increased insurance protection, vyol!â€" umes of traffic ordinances and better handling of traffic! Yet the tremenâ€" the dous death rate continues annually! Traffic precautions of all kinds have been taken but the greatest hazards remaining are the imperfections of the drivers themselves, speakers explained. the conference agreed that this huâ€" man element can only be controlled by education and punishment. Kiwanis clubs were urged to study local enforcement of traffic ordinances. Police must be made responsible for arrests and the courts equally responâ€" sible for punishing violators, the conâ€" ference suggested, as the first step in community control. The cause of a community unwillingness to advocats rigid enforcement, Kiwanians admitâ€" ted, was due to public opinion being sensitive to punishment of violators. There are at present 1,150 Kiwanis clubs in the U.S. and Canada now en» gaged in safety programmes. Night traffic still continues to be the most hazardous and fatal, the conâ€" ference reported. It is still four times more dangerous to drive after dark, when only 25 per cent of the traffic is on the roads, than in the daytime. Marijuana "The use of marijuana is on the inâ€" crease and thousands of free lance peddlers are selling it to youths at any price they can get for the arug." deâ€" clared Dr. Charles B. Holman, of St. Louis, Mo. Because of the illegal inâ€" crease use of marijuana and all other narcotics a special conference was callâ€" ed to combat the drug evil.
