When the Wartime Prices and Trade Board was first established, Canada was given the honour of being the first country in the world to try out such a plan of price and wage control. Mr. W. J. Gorman, who writes the column, "Grab for The Nortnern Minâ€" er has unearthed evidence that sugâ€" gests that the plans are old after all, like so many other things loudly herâ€" alded as "new." Indeed, the scheme to go back nearly six centuries, acâ€" cording to Mr. Gorman. Here is Mr. Gorman‘s article on the matter:â€" Price Control in 1349 Nearly 600 years ago England had price control and wage fixing laws. In 1349, King Edward III sent a letter to the Sheriff of Kent and other sheriffs throughout England setting out the need of controlling prices and freezing wages. This interesting data has been uncovered by students at the University of British Columbia who were asked to prepare a paper comparing Canada‘s price efforts along corresponding lines. A plague had ravaged England and many working and servants had died. This created a‘ scarcity in the labour market and "servants will not serve unâ€" less they receive excessive wages and others prefer to be in idleness rather than seek their livelihood by labour." The king took counsel with "prelates and nobles and other learned men." In his letter to the sheriffs the King set out that: "Butchers, fishermen, hostâ€" lers, brewers, bakers, poulterers and all other sellers of victuals whatsoefer | shall be bound to sell such victuals at a reasonable price, regard being had to the price at which such victuals are sold in the neighboring places; so that sellers have a moderate profit and not excessive." ! Tradesmen were also compelled to conform to the price ceiling. The clause read: "Saddlers, skinners, shoemakers, tailors and smiths, carpenters, masons, tilers, boatmen, carters and other artiâ€" ficers and workmen shall not take for their labour and craft more than is used to be paid for such and if any receive more, he shall be committed to the nearest gaol." In the wage fixing field it was orâ€" dained that;: "Every man and woman of our realm of England of whatsoâ€" ever condition, free or servile, ableâ€" bodied and under the age of 60 years, not living by trade nor exercising aA certain craft, nor having of his own whereof he shall be able to live, or land of his own, in the tilling whereof he shall be able to occupy himself,+and not serving another man, shall be bound to serve him who require him." shall be able to occupy himself,+and ; ‘The late Mr. Carson came to the not serving another man, shall be .

Sudden Death Last Week of Thomas George Code Last week‘s issue of The Haileyburâ€" ian had the following reference to the death of T. G. Code: "Stricken suddenly with a heart attack while in a downtown restaurant on Monday eveningy, Thomas George Code, one of the old timers of the Cobalt camp passed away before medical aid could reach him. He had been in his usual health. had been in Haileybury during the afternoon on business and his faraily and friends had no intimaâ€" tion that he was seriously affected unâ€" il his sudden collapse. Mr. Code was in his 58th year. Some time ago the Cochrane town council issued a protest against the condition of the coaches on the Porquis Junction to Cochrane run of the T.N. O. and had the Timmins town council among other similar bodies in ths part of the North, endorse a resoluton askâ€" ing for improvement. In view of this, is it only fair to refer to an article on the front page of The Cochrane Northâ€" land Post last week commenting on the improvement. In this connection The Cochrane Northland Post says: Almost dazzling in their shiny newâ€" ness, the renovated coaches for the T. N.

Since then he had his home in the silver town, with the exception of a period spent overâ€" seas during the last great war, when he served as a lieutenant in the First Tunâ€" nelling Company of the Royal Canaâ€" Gian Engineers.

Ottawa Extends Time for Payment of Subsidy on Cordwood Will Subside Cordwood Proâ€" duction to Dec. 31st. OTTAWA, June 29 â€" To aid in preâ€" venting firewood famine next winter, the period during which the Governâ€" ment will subsidize cordwood producâ€" tion has been extended to December 31, it is announced by Munitions Minister Howe. "I should like to remind farmers and farm workers, entitled to postponement of military training and lving in areas where they can spare time from their normal agricultural pursults, that their postponement will not be affected by engaging temporarily in cutting fireâ€" wood," said Mr. Howe. "I might point out, however, that such temporary abâ€" sences from the farm must not interâ€" fere with agricultural production." When the Department‘s plan for meeting the emergency was announced on March 4, the decision at that time was to pay the $1.00 per cord subsidy to dealers only on commercial cordâ€" wood contracted for and cut on or before June 30, 1943, and delivered to a dealer or held to his account after March 5, 1943. Under the extension, the subsidy will be paid on the same basis for cordwood cut on or before December 31, 1943. According to Mr. Howe, the shortage has been aggravated by the severity of the past winter and the lateness of the spring thaw. "Unless firewood is cut during the summer and early fall, the situation in many parts of Canada may be critical," he said. "For this reason, the subsidy will be extended for six months." The Minister urged dealers to arâ€" range, wherever possible, for the purâ€" chase of slabwood from the mills. "On such purchases a transportation subâ€" sidy will be paid, if the dealer can show that otherwise he could not obtain the wood for his customers," he said. The transportation subsidy can apply not only to slabwood, but also to cordâ€" wood. The Wood Puel Controller will authorize the payment of such portion of the transportation costs as he conâ€" siders proper, particularly in instances where dealers, to procure supplies, find it necessary to contract for firewood at locations outside the area from which they normally derive their supplies. In order to receive any such subsidy, dealâ€" ers must obtain a permit from the Conâ€" troller before contracting for the supâ€" plies. Transâ€"Canada Highway Tested by Ontario Police The cutting and transportation subâ€" sidies will be made available only to wood fuel dealers registered as such with the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. "I+ is encouraging to note that many communities have realized the seriousâ€" ness of the firewood shortage and are taking all possible steps to arrange for local solutions of the problem," said Mr. Howe. "On the other hand, there are communities where nothning at all has been done, and the citizens will face extreme hardship unless action is taken immediately." The Minister pointed out that a coal shortage also exists, and warned not only that coal will not be available for use as a substitute for firewood, but because of the coal shortage firewood consumption is very likely to be greatly increased. In a frontâ€"page article last week The Haileyburian had the following:â€" "Two inspectors of the Ontario Proâ€" vincial Police are this week testing the new link in the Transâ€"Canada Highâ€" way from Hearst to Geraldton on a trip that .had as its chief object the delivery of a patrol car to the detachâ€" ment at Port Arthur, it was learned at the Haileybury headquarters of the force. The officers are Inspector P. Walters of the special liquor enforceâ€" ment squad and Inspector E. Hales, head of the force‘s transport division. Both had business to attend to at the lakehead cities of Fort William and Port Arthur, it was stated at local headquarters. "The inspectors travelled in the patrol car, one of the white variety that is used by the highway traffic officers and which will be left in Port Arthur for use of the detachment there. In addiâ€" tion, a station wagon, with certain supplies needed in the western section of the province, and driven by an ofâ€" ficer of the force, is making the trip over the new, highway section which was only opened to general traffic a couple of weeks ago. There are no service stations on the route, it has been announced ,but it was expected that the two vehicles would make the trip with their tanks filled before leavâ€" ing Hearst." In the overhaul tall travellers were given the breaks as compared with the stouts, for while it was not possible to widen the seats they have been reâ€" spaced to give more leg room. By careâ€" ful planning the reâ€"arrangement was made to retain good visibility from the windows at all seats, but long legs can row be stretched. The seats in both cars were raised two inches and seat pack raised two inches. Seats in the first class can No. 1002 were completely reâ€"upholstered. The partition in this car was removed to that there is now no smoking compartment in it, but smoking is permissable in No. 1001. The most important improvement is the use of new trucks of the equalizer type instead of the old arch bar type which has resulted in much smoother riding. but for their improved riding qualities In addition to the paint jobs on both extrrior and interior of both cars, the floor in the second class No. i1801 was recovered. Confusion in Observing Dominion Day This Year There is a muddle and confusion this year in regard to the observance of Dominion Day. Timmins, New Lisâ€" keard and some other towns in the North are observing the proper date, July ist. Other towns in the North â€" Cobalt, Kirkland Lake, etc., are apâ€" parently going to keep the holiday on Monday, July 5th. The Dominion Govâ€" ernment is to blame for the confusion. Some weeks ago the announcement was made at Ottawa to the effect that it was desirable to observe Dominion Day this year on Monday, July 5th, inâ€" stead of the proper date, July 1st. Then, later, the Dominion Government saw the error of this sort of thing and rescinded its previous instructions and . made it plain that the legal date to observe July 1st was July 1st and not some other day. There are always number of people who are more conâ€"‘ cerned with having a holiday than obâ€" serving any event or occasion, and the Monday holiday appealed to them, beâ€" cause it would mean a "long weekâ€"end." These people made the original error an excuse for calling for the observâ€" ance of July 1st on July 5th. They conveniently overlooked the fact that it would be just as logical to observe Chirstmas Day in June or July when the weather would likely be milder as it would be to observe July 1st or some date days later than the proper day. Then, of course, there were other peoâ€" ple who took the original announceâ€" ment by the Government at its full face value, and went ahead quite seriously to p‘an affairs for the Dominion Day holiday. Among these innocent vicâ€" tims were the firemen of the North. For a quarter of a century or more it has been the custom of the Temiskamâ€" ing Firemen‘s Association to hold their annual tournament on Dominion Day. The Temiskaming Firemen have preâ€" viously observed Dominion Day on July Ist and no doubt this year would have done the same, had there not been the Grovernment announcement that this year the legal holiday to observe the anniversary of the Dominion would be on July 5th for a change. Before the Government had changed its mind on the subject, or had a change of heart, Duparquet, Que., where the annual Temiskaming Firemen‘s tournament is to be he‘ld this year, had proceeded to arrange the programme and other afâ€" fairs under the impression that Domâ€" inion Day this year was to be observed on July 5th. (Printing and other work was done in the belief that July 5th should be the date. When the second announcement was made from Ottawa to the effect that Dominion Day should be held this year on July 1st as usual and sensible, it was felt to be too late and too expensive to alter the date of the tournament. As a consequence Robin at New Liskeard Mothering Pigeon Hawk Birds are often mentioned as showing the mother instinct to breeds that are not their own, cases of hens attempting to bring up young ducks and geese often being noted. A still more unusual case along this line was reported last week from New Liskeard where a moâ€" ther robin has apparently adopted a young pigeon hawk and is apparently planning to bring up the pigeon hawk as a good little bird. The story is told as follows by last week‘s New Liskeard Speaker : â€" a number of towns in the NortMh intend to follow the plan of observing the "long weekâ€"end," and thus allowing‘for a lot of people to take in the tournaâ€" ment at Duparquet. The confusion of dates, however, will be a handicap and a nuisance to all towns no matter which day they eventually decide to celebrate. "The unusual circumstances of a mother robin feeding a young pigeon hawk that apparently was one of the brood she is currently raising, were reported from a Whitewood avenue house the other morning, according to Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Young, who live there. The attention of the occupants was attracted by a commotion outside, caused when the robin and her partner apparently had observed danger posâ€" sibilities from a cat, and when they BROAD W AY A FAMOUS PLAYERS THEATRE "White "Ghosts on the Loose" Thursday â€" FOTOâ€"NITE JON HALL â€" SABU MARIA MONTEZ Thursday, Friday and Friday Midnite Double Horror Show Last Times Toâ€"Day!

Mother robin was not far away, with a big worm in her mouth, andi this, when danger had been removed, was duly fed to the pigeon hawk. The latâ€" ter bird, it is thought, came from an egg some flighty parent had deposited in the robins‘ nest, but it was being mothered in the timeâ€"honored manner, Mrs. Young said,. It was a good=sized bird, with a big spread of wings. It disappeared toward a neighbor‘s lot and was not seen since." Rebekahs Hold the Final Meeting of Season Thursday ‘The final meeting of the season was held by the Gold Nuget Rebekah Lodge on Thursday evening, with Mrs. P. Masters, Noble Grand, presiding. During the meeting, the first nominâ€" ation of officers took place. The second nomination will take place at the first meeting of next fall, September 2nd. Cochrane Exceeds Its Obiective for the Blind Afer the business period, a social time was enjoyed, bingo being played, with many prize winners. A delicious lunch brought to a close a delightful evening, and the members will not meet again until Thursday, September 2nd. The recent tag day for the Canadian National Institurte for the Blind at Cochrane netted $112.64, which is a litâ€" tle more than last year‘s collection at Cochrane. Money for the campaign will continue to come in for some weeks, but a week ago the total (including the ing day) was $342.64, which is some $60.00 better than last year‘s total.
