| Calendar of Events O \ cesnn® : THE HAILEYBURIAN : ----HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO THURSDAY, MARCH 26th, 1953 Subscription Rate: $2.00 per year * Vol. 49; No. 3 Mines Minister Progress _ a = Reviews of Department Delivering his speech on the estimates of the Mines Depart- ment last week, the Hon. Vhilip i. Kelly said "Well to the fore- tront of our province's resources are those which lie beneath the ground waiting to be taken out and used to further our national well being and to promote an enviable living standard, not only in our own land but throughout the world. Untouched billions lie buried, awaiting the tap of the prospector's pick, the probe of a diemond drill." Mr. Kelly does not agree with Other speakers that Canadians lack taith in our country's future --faith that we are not prepared to back with solid cash, He is quite certain that the bulk of stock in the great majority of Ontario's mines is held by Cana- dians. Traditionally, Governments are spending bodies. The Mines De~ partment, however, is in the hap- py position of being a profit mak- ing branch of the government. Modest fees and the sale of min- ing lands will leave a surplus of $3,000,000. The Minister again asked for an appropriation of $1,000,000 to permit the Department to make final payments of $300,000 on many of the roads now under construction or contract and to add additional projects, some of which are presently under consid- eration -- the Matachewan-Ken- ogami road and the extension to the Warren Lake road. An estimated increase of $8,650 for the 1953-54 administrative centre is due to higher adminis- tration costs and a more ambi- tious program for production of geological maps and reports. In this connection, the Minister told ot an entirely new mineral re- sources map which is now in pre- paration. The map will be of great value in setting forth the while mineral picture in this province in graphic form. In ad- dition, the Department is prepar~ ing for the first time, on one sheet, all the available geology of the James Bay Lowlands Provided personnel is avail- able, the Department will place at ten to twelve parties in thé field this summer to continue detailed mapping to co-relate the results of certain airborne magneto- meter surveys. The Minister outlined the var- ious services available through the Department--resident geolo- gists are maintained at Cobalt, Swastika, Timmins, Port Arthur, and Kenora; annual prospectors' classes have provided a vital ser- vice; district mine inspectors are spotted throughout the province. Mine Rescue Stations have been established with the latest in Co- balt in 1952. In a laboratory at the Parlia- ment Buildings is a machine of gigantic power to test ropes and cables for the safety of the mines. It is the only one of its kind in the Commonwealth and the only one of its type in North America. Other laboratories include the Department's Assay office at Queen's Park and a laboratory providing prospectors with free assay coupons. The accurate analysis of such minerals as uran- ium ore has made necessary the purchase of certain X ray equip- ment and a fluorimeter. The Temiskaming Testing Labora- tory's reputation for accuracy stands so high they are often call- ed on to referee private assay office disputes. In closing the Minister said "An industry whose total produc-~ tion in a year is nearly half a pillion dollars deserves careful consideration. Everything must be done to 'see that the industry is encouraged." Haileybury Art Exhibition, March 28th and 29th. High School Operetta, April 16 and 17. 1.0.D.E.

Miners' Licenses Expire The End of the Month The Mining Recorder's Office has issued a timely warning that miner's licenses expire on the 31st day of March and must be renew- ed before that date if the licensee wishes to retain his claims.

McQuaid Posied to Canadian base in Germany On Monday, March 30th, LAW Olive McQuaid will leave for La- chine--the first step en route to Halifax where she will board the Cunard line "Cythia" headed for Germany and service abroad with the No, 3 Fighter Wing, R. CALF. LAW McQuaid is one of fifty- one airwomen chosen for duty at the air wing's base at Zweibruc- ker, One hundred and thirty- three RCAF ground technicians will also board the ship. Eight nien from Northern Ontario are included in the draft, A graduate of St. Mary's Aca- demy, the twenty-three-year-old airwoman was with the Town office here for five years before joining up in February, 1952. During the past year, she has been stationed at St. John's, (amp Borden, Aylmer and Chat- ham, N.B., where she has been attached to the clerical branch of the service.

Department of- ficials believe that these may be some of the marten live-trapped in the Chapleau Game Preserve and transferred to this North- western Ontario district. Since marten are among the most valu- able fur bearers, trappers throughout the region are very much interested in the success of the Department's re-introduction proj.ect.

THAT BEST PORTION OF A GOOD MAN'S LIFE, HIS LITTLE, NAMELESS, UNREMEMBERED ACTS OF KINDNESS AND OF LOVE. THE WORK OF MERCY NEVER ENDS GENEROUSLY GIVE TO THE RED CROSS C.I.M.M. Hear H. S. Ireland on "Dynamics of Foremanship Officers for the coming year were elected at the annual C.I.M. M. meeting held on Friday night in the Legion Hall. The new ex- ecutive is headed by O. E. Walli with M. Debastiani of Cobalt as vice-chairman. Other officers are Bob Jackson, Cobalt, C. Camsell, Haileybury, George McLeod, Gowganda, J. Sparrow, Matach~ ewan J. Plackman, Belleterre and J. Cooper of the Provincial School of Mines. Sixty members listened to an address, "The Dynamics oft Fore- manship'", by Mr, H. S. Ireland, factory manager of the Domin- ion Rubber Company of Mont- real It was an enlightening talk regarding what management could do to co-operate with labor. His remarks were vividly illus- trated with a late type machine which enabled the guest speaker to act as operator and make use of the picture on the screen with- out turning on his audience. "Canada, with all its natural resources,' said Mr. Ireland, "may be likened to a sleeping giant which has just been awakened and is stretching.' As the New York Times stated, we have every reason to believe that this coun- try will match the rapid growth of the United States. Contrary to public opinion, the speaker pointed out that 85% of the four anda half billion invested in Canada's expansion was Canadian capital. In the last decade, 600,- 000 new jobs have been created in the country. Turning to his immediate sub- ject, Mr. Ireland listed the ob- vious factors inyolved in the operation of a successful indus- dustry--a high quality product at the lowest cost, an adequate pro- fit, delivery on time and the men, materials and machines. For a sound and happy family within the industry, Mr. Ireland touched on the various aspects which must be understood to pro- gress. Common fears held~ by labor were that of too much pro- duction creating a surplus and halting further output; the com- pany cutting wages if it could; and loss of jobs if the new mach- ine should cut down working hours. Their common beliefs are. the thoughts that "'I am better off if I can get more pay for the same production", "the government will take care of me in my old age'; and "the company makes so much profit that a little loss of time and material is not import- ant." Resentments arise with the thoughts that the company can cut their profits and pay more; "that the brass hats take all the gravy and leave me out in the cold." "Free men in a free world", Mr, Ireland said, "can forge a- head and change this attitude" He gave his listeners seven points to consider. We can only have what we produce. The peo- ple produce everything and the government nothing (their task is to govern and to transfer inonies). The only true job se- curity is customer security. So- cial welfare stem from teamwork with industry. Money is not a true measure of our welfare. The easiest way to boost our output is to get more tools and ma- chines. Output is highest when nullions of free people make their own economic decisions. lf we fail to produce the best at an economic cost at a satisfac- tory profit,we will directly under- mine the democratic way of life. A debasing of the value of our currency will lead to a serious disruption in a steady economy. 'Lo those responsible for good relationships between labor and management, namely the fore- man, the speaker had a forceful reminder when he said "You hava hired his hands. Why not enlist his head and his heart?" Rotarians Elect Officers; Harry Kemp Guest Speaker The election of officers took place on Monday at the regular meeting of Rotary. The new president after July Ist will be H. Brown. Other officers elected are as follows: Vice-President--F., Thompson. Secretary--S., Granam. Treasurer--J. Lecky. 30ard of Directors--J. Hughes, Jim Blair, J. C. A. Crawford, W. R. Somerville. Rotarians listened to an inter- esting talk given by Harry Kemp of New Liskeard on income tax regulations. Mr. Kemp referred in particular to the new regula- tions in the recent budget which inakes the situation better for the rich man and not the poor man. Members listened attentively as the speaker spoke of various ways in which accounts can be kept so that the income tax may be worked out with ease. Trout Released In Northern Lakes Speckled and lake trout were released in nearly 300 lakes and streams of the North Bay, Sud bury and Parry Sound districts last year. The fish were supplied by the North Bay and Hill's Lake hatcheries. Bass and ouananiche or landlocked salmon were also distributed in the area. aS The coronation chair at West- minster Abbey contains the Stone of Scone, brought from Scotland by Edward I in 1297. Broken Service Connection Hollows Out Main Street Probably no other individual covers as much ground in one day in town than Frank Plaunt. it is fitting, therefore, that he should quite unintentionally have unearthed a little history this week regarding the water main on Main street. Parking his truck in front of the Hydro office, the back wheel sank into a hole that no one knew existed. A service connection which has likely not been in use since the fire had broken off at the end of the valve coming from the eight-inch main, and so the story began. Roughly two hundred gal- Jons a minute haye been escaping for several months. The, under- mined area shows an excavation 8x6x5 this week and it is fortu- nate that the discovery was made as soon as it was or it is quite likely the next truck would have disappeared for all time. Furthermore, Council may now have a good idea of where some ei the extravagant use of water has taken place. Good Response to Plan For Cemetery Gates Donations-sent in to the fund now open for the new gates \at Mount Pleasant cemetery amount to $277.00 this week. Citizens are reminded that if they wish to share in this worth- while undertaking, they may send their contribution to the chairman of the Board, T. Lemon, or to the secretary, J. E. Dunn.
