The funeral of the late Rhys Jones, who was killed in an accident underâ€" ground at the Hollinger Mine ten years ago, was held on Thursday, July 18th, 1929.. Services were held in the United Church and interment made in the Timmins cemetery. The Rev. J. D. Parks conducted the services and gave words of sympathy and comfort to the bereaved friends and relatives, The attendance at the funeral was unusuâ€" ally large. The Welsh people, with their usual kindness and sympathy, had taken off the shoulders of the immeâ€" diate relatives here the sad burden of arrangements for the funeral, and practically all the Welsh people in the town were present at the funeral to express thus their high regard for the late Rhys Jones and their deep symâ€" pathy for those bereaved. A special feature of the service was the singing of the Welsh people, the volume of vocal music making an impressive part of the service. "There will be general congratulation extended to Mr. Lawrsnce O*‘Toole Cooper, son of Mr.. and .Mrs. P. E.

For the third time this student is first in his class, winning similar distinction in his previous two at McGill, He is in his third year in Applied Science at McGill, specializing in Mechanical Engineering." THE PORCUPINE AODVANCE, TTIMMINS, ONTARIO Most of the capital involved in the foreign funds westward represents the fortunes of well to do sudeten Gerâ€" who have migrated through fear of confiscation ‘or other misfortune" beâ€" cause of their political or religious beâ€" liefs. Few parts of the world are 30 ideally situated for offering sanctuary to capital and its owners as Canada, gnd for this reason the inflow to this country has been particularly heavy. Along with the money are hund?eds of immigrants and each immigrant family must possess at least $1,000 beâ€" fore they are admitted. Some of the farms around Toronto are said to be armed with as much as $20,000 in cash. Many others are transferring small industries from Europe. An importâ€" ant feature of the movement is that in every instance credentials and qualâ€" ifications are carefully checked before certificates of admission are granted. Only those who are self supporting are getting through. Generally speaking, instead of adding to the unemployment problem the movement is more likely to caus> the greater employment of Canadians. "So far as the mining industry is concerned the direct benefits from the infflow of refugee capital and the acâ€" companying influx of immigrants will be negligible and the indirect results will not be apparent for some time. Most of the newcomers are from parts of Europe where the ordinary citizen is not even remotely interested in mineos or mining speculation. With their abâ€" sorption into Canadian life will come the inevitable realization with the rest of Canadians that the mines are an important and vital part of the Canâ€" adian economic structure, and it will not be for long that the country‘s leadâ€" ing industry will escape their attention. The initiative and independence which gave them couraze to escape from the hepelessness of regimentation in Eurâ€" ope run parallet with the spirit of adâ€" venture and speculation, upon which Canadian mining has thrived. The new money and new blood of selected imâ€" migrants who found the political hotâ€" beds of Europe too warm for security can scarcely fail but become a national asset if properly directed along Canâ€" adian lines on Canadian solil." _ Since last fall, The Northern Miner hears from reliable banking sources the amount of refugee funds arriving in Canada in the form of Bonds and other securities would easily total $100 millions while in estimated $25 milâ€" lionor more have been deposited with Canadian banks by people who have either left Europe or have made arâ€" rangements to leave. One estimate is that at the present time Canada is recovering close to a million dollars a day . Every month since the beginâ€" ning of the year there has been a successive increase in the balance of sales of securitiese to foreign countries over their purchases. A sharp distinction may be drawn between the "hot money‘"‘ influx of five years ago and the influx of "reâ€" fugee" capital which Canada has been enjoying in recent months. Whereas the former consisted chiefly of time deposits in Canadjan banks, brought here for safe keeping until the politâ€" ical storm blew over, some 90 per cent of the new money arriving in Canada toâ€"day is estimated for permanent inâ€" vestments. In the main it is moncy that is secking permanent sanctuary from conditions which its owners have found in Europe. There is a probability, however, that if the Czechoslovakian experts came here and found the situation in reâ€" gard to china clay and gypsum as it is believed by the Canadian experts who have studied it, the financing might be done by the Czechoslavakians themâ€" selves. In this connection there is a very interesting and informative editâ€" orial article in the last issue of the Northern Miner. Here is the article:â€" New Money, New Blood, New Canadians Five years ago Canada exxperiencâ€" ed an influtx of capital for which there was little welcome, either in our finâ€" ancial institutions or in industry What we were getting then was "hot" money, chased out of the United States chiefly through the fear of its owners of the inflationary effects of Rooseâ€" velt‘s monetary policies. In recent issues The Advance has been urging the government to do something in regard t> china Cc:ay and gypsum development in the North by securing the services of the Czechoâ€" slovakian experts who have been disâ€" possessed in their own land by the Nazi robbers. The Advance belipves that it would be good business for the government to secure the services of these experts, even if financing for the industries had to be raised separately.

Councillor â€"Armstrong pointed out "Well", said Councillor Gauthier, "I am no friend of Mr. Wren‘s but I do agree with him on this matter. Those people who have not got cars cannot take their children to Gillies Lake as the water is polluted, or to Miller Lake, so they should be allowed to send them to the playgrounds.

At that the Cauncillor resumed his seat, Said the Mayor: "Apparently this present was given to the Cauncil in good faith but it had a sting in it, We are embrazing a serpent, perhaps." In full voizse by this time, Cauncilior Armstrong aired another grievance. He referred to a picture in the Press which showed a small boy wading through a large puddlo of what the cutâ€"lincs desâ€" criked as "stagnant water" at the north end of Birch Street. The Mayor went on to say that the expenditure of $3,600 for pavinz lanes would have the effect of covering the accumulation of thirty years filth.
