Nixon, | M.L.A. for Temiskaming, given 1 in the Legislature last week. Mr. Nixon's' constituents wil support him in his efforts for im- @ provements to the general condi- ions in the North. "Construction of better main highways and improvement of 'lateral and settlers' roads--work| instead of relief for Northern On- tario settlets--expansion of the mining and agricultural develop- ments of Northern Ontario-- these were the highlights of a reply to the Speech from the Throne 'made in the Ontario Le gislature by W.

A farmer north of Cochrane last year produced 2800} bags of potatoes--"'some fertiliz- of = ' «made to get settlers off reliefeand "on to a_ higher plane where they shall have a broader outlook, a greater hope the future, not only themselves but for moral for for their families present policy, excepting guest that where settlers must have financial assistance they be required to return work for such assistance. My keenest inteerst is in seeing something done to put settlers on a self-sustaining basis} to give them encouragement to become more self-reliant, to re-, store in many instances a broken down morale." | Mr, Nixon urged that a Rehab- replace the Direct Relief Fund. "Use the fund in the ditching, grading and gravelling of settlers | roads," he advised. "Use it also in the purchase of a flock of poul- try, a brood sow, or a milk cow-- where necessary to do so, to help establish the settler. Consider the advisability of giving limited as- sistance in land clearing where a, settler has not sufficient acreage under cultivation to carry him along.
