The ttempt to build a st at the outh of the Churchill river was made in 1688, but fire destroyed the building before it was even finished. Wars with the French prevented any further activity until 1717, when James Knight built a wooden fort a few miles up the river. This was named Prince of Wales. Later, an immense stone fort was built at the mouth of the river and has been restored by the gov- ernment as a - historical monn- ment.

(CP)-- This community of some 200 per- sons today is a miniature Quebec City, built like the ancient capital on a steep hill, but three years 'from now it may have moved on. The village, which has already moved once in its four-year history, thrives on timber. When the tim- ber is cut the lumbermen, with their families, move farther into the bush. Now set around a lake in the midst of burnt-over forest about 120 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie the predominantly French-Cana- dian community was brought to this 'area two years ago from a site 50 miles to the east. It was made possible when the Canadian government in 1949 grant- ed the four Dubreuil brothers, for- merly of Taschereau, Que., a con- tract to cut timber in one section of a huge area burned over by forest fires the year before. FAMILY PROJECT The brothers began at Mountain Ash lake, 50 miles east of here. They gathered workers and work- ers' families and built homes for them. But late in 1950 their cutting area was petering out. The government granted a sec- ond contract in the area surround- ing the site of the present Du- breuilville. Augustine, second- youngest of the four, was sent to timber-cruise the area. He found a townsite too. The lumbermen built six miles of wind- ing road into it, put up log houses on the old Quebec plan and moved the whole village, women and chil- dren, to the present site. The community has an appear- ance of permanency that belies its future. There are indoor plumbing, electric lights, a modern church and school, a general store and level streets. But the brothers say that al- though it will take some 15 years to cut their 16-township tract, the area around Dubreuilville will be cut in two or three years and they'll have to push the bush road farther -and 'move the community back into the wilderness. The four manage the whole tim- ber-cutting operation as a family affair.

That was the messag. given by USW president David J. McDonald at the union's three-day wage pol- icy convention last week. He i dicated, however, that no strike would be called to force the steel industry to accept the guaranteed wage principle. McDonald 'told the union's wage policy committee he was confident of the ultimate success of the drive for guaranteed wages but that suc- cess would not come overnight. The union intended to be "flex- ible" in its approach. - : superintendent, Augustine, saw mill manager and Marcel, manager of bite the planing mill. : Six hundred railroad ties are turned out daily and the lumber mill has a da capacity of 15,- 00 board feet.
