Whereas Engiand used to cut the'emrs. of criminals, the Turkish officials are tattooing or burning old offenders so that they may be recognized and avoided.

ROBB Head of the Colonization and Devel- opment Department of Canadian Na- tional Railways Toronto, Sept. 7 --- Tt is the intention of the Canadian National Railways to use every possible in- strument in the Dominion of Ca- wici, Roummanian inventor, who came to Canada last spring at the invitation of Hon. L. A. Taschereau. in regard to the problem of winter navigation in the St. Lawrence rier and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, is in Ottawa now and has presented some intéresting plans before public men | in Canada, including the Jremier, Hon. Ernest Lapointe, min!ster of marine and fisheries, and Hor. L. A. nada and in the British Isles, not only to bring desirable people into this country. but to take care of them after they arrive." In these words .W. D. Robb, vice- president in charge of coionization, development and other departments of the Canadian National Railways. who was the principal speaker on Transportation Day at the luncheon of the'directors of the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition, outlined the po- the Canadian National tion and immigration along the lines of the system. "The Canadian National Railways since the advent of the present man- agement." said Mr. Robb, "have been planning an active and effec- tive organization to deal with the Taschereau One of Mr. Joanowici's plans, which should have a great cffect on the shipping in the St. Lawrence, is that of building a dam across the St. Lawrence river from.

Probably one of the most potent factors in ac- complishing this will be the intro- duction of necessary capital to de- velop our natural resources and the many industries that can be built upon them. Serves All Province... Mr. Robb drew attention to the fact that the Canadian National Railways served every one of the nine provinces and all the principal cities and towns and in addition Rreat areas of undeveloped country which showed every indication of be- ing wealthy in mineral deposits. In this connection he added that it was necessary for the country to have a rallway framework before there can be any density of settlement and the railways of this country were brought Into existence to perform no less task Our policy is to bring | over the harbor. If this plan is followed, the inventor claims that the water will not freeze, as the oil will act like a warm blanket over the water. Electricity to operate the fans, which will be situated at var- fous points on the decks could be supplied from the nearest plact, or from grain elevators. Owing to the fact that grain elevators do not opér- ate at night----when the weather is most severe--an abundant supply of electrical current could be obtained. The inventor is reserving tie right to keep this secret of preventing the fce to form on the. 300-foot-wide channel, which makes 300 feet less ice in the river from Montreal as far as is necessary for the purposes oi navigation. Mr. Joanowici, has also suggested a plan by which grain coming from the west may be transported to Hur- ope via the St. Lawrence river dur- ing '0 monthe in thc ywar His sug- gestion embraces the development of Lark Point, waich lies about 123 miles below Quebec City, as a har- bor and shipping port; and the bulld- ing of a railroad from Cressman, where the Canadian National ljnes cuts the Trench river to Lark Point, a distance of 145 miles. According to Mr, Joancwieis observarions, Lark - Foiot presents wonderful ad- vantages as a prospoctive shipping port, and the fact that it will be than the turning of our vast was spaces into populated areas. ? "When these are filled." concluded Mr. Robb, "with an industrious peo- ple yviplding traffic it wil! be time to apply to the railway some of the tests that reasonably apply to other bubiness from the ontset. The west- ern country 's only now coming into its own and it is my prediction that in the course of a few years many hundreds of thousands of settlers open 10 months in the year should prove, he declares. a great impetus to-Canadian shipping.
