Plans Being Formed for
Entertaining Van. Board
of Trade at Alice Arm
A meeting*of the Alice Arm
branoh of the British Columbia
Chamber of Mines was held
on Wednesday evening in the
Anglican Church building. The
meeting was well attended and was
conducted by H. Fowler, who aoted
as Chairman.
The minutes of the last meeting
were read by secretary A. D. Yorke
and adopted.
The reading of the correspondence oaused some discussion. Tho
seoretary stated that he could not
obtain any information regarding
the disposal of the ore display sent
to the Prince Rupert exhibition
last year, nor had the various prizes
been delivered.
A letter was read from the secretary of the Vancouver Board of
Trade, stating that 100 members
of that organization would call at
Alice Arm on their northern trip.
The date of the visit would be
Thursday June 23rd. and they expected to arrive at Alice Arm at
4 p..m. leaving at 8 or 10 p.m. the
same evening.
It was the general opinion of the
meeting that in view of the fact
that such a large number of influential business men of the province
had decided to visit the camp that
no pains should be spared to show
them as much as possible of our
great mineral resources, and what
had already been done towards
developing them.
It was also the wish of the meet:
ina that a reception committee be
formed to meet the visitors, and
answer tho many questions that
will undoubtedly be asked during
their stay.
During a discussion as to the
feasibility of conducting them over
the railway to the end of the steel
aud a visit to the Torio mine, Mr.
0. Evindson informed the meeting
that Mr. A. C. H. Gerhardi, managing director of the Toric Mines
Co. Ltd. had signified his willingness to place all his speeders and
locomotive at the disposal of the
visitors, and was willing toco oper-
, ate in every way possible for their
,   trip up the valley.
A committee consisting or a. i>.
Kergin, O. Evindson aud E. Moss
were appointed to interview Mr.
Gerhardi and report at a future
meeting to be held on Wednesday
June 8th. At this meeting plans
will be completed for the entertain
ment of the visitors, and it is hoped
that everyone will co-operate in
helping in every ,way possible to
make the visit of the Vancouver
Board of Trade a pleasant one,
and that they will leave with a good
impression of the camp, its people,
and its future.

Eight Million Feet Logs
in Water Since August
By F. L. Housley
Logging   operations   that have
been carried ou during the past lew
years on  the  Kitsault flats have
played no small part in keeping
Alice Arm on the map.    The logging of the flats commenced at a
time when the oamp was passing
through a quiet period of the mining industry and will be completed
this summer, but the mining industry is expanding by leaps and.
bounds, and although the loggiv jj
will be missed the loss will be offset*
by increased milling activities.
The camp conducted by F. L.
Housley is the last one to lie
operated. Mr. Housley commenced
operations iu August 1926. He.
took over the oamp after others had .
made a failure, and has operated it
successfully since that date. He
holds a record for the northern
coast, inasmuch as he kept the
camp running continuously
throughout the winter, encountering snow difficulties that seemed at
times insurmountable, but persev
erance won through and consequently the cost of closing and
again opening up in the spring
was avoided.
Since Mr. Housley commenced
operations, he has put 8,000,000
feet of logs b.m. in the water,
these have been transported ,.„
paper mills at Powell
logs comprised 70 pe-
< New railway buiL
prises 7,000 feet'ana
oarried on an additio
A bridge has been
aoross the North-east fork or
Kitsault River, and the railv
extended a distance of 8,000 feet'
from the. bridge.
At the present time the daily-
output of logs is around 50,000 ft.
Logging is being conducted at tbe
extreme north end of the flats, and
it is expected that everything will
be cleaned up during the latter part
of August. When this has been
done Mr. Housley expects to log off
some stands of timber at Roundy
Creek and Perry Bay down the
inlet and also at Indian River.'
Two Davis rafts of logs have
been constructed near the Dolly
Varden wharf and contain 2%
million feet. They are practically
completed, aud a tugboat is expected to arrive at any time to transport them to Powell River, taking
out both rafts. These rafts clean
up nearly all the logs in the water.

Copper Producers Are
Urged to Curtail
Output
Thero is again talk of the oopper
producers of the world organizing
to out production so that prices can
he maintained that will give better
profits than has been the case dur
ing tlie past nine years.
Other industries have curtailed
output and why not copper producers?
The steel producers of Europe
have combined to coordinate their
production and Ueep price levels
above marginal cost. In suoh a
policy lies economic salvation.
Fiance and Germany have also
combined to coordinate their potash
production and uphold the price;
level. Brazil sold its output of
coffee for a century at less than its
marginal value, hut at last it came
to realize that curtailment of production and export was the only
way to secure adequate prices for
its coffee exports.
Bengal has stabilized its jute
production and made it a most
prosperous industry by curtailing
production to balance consumption
Chile has done the same thing with
nitrates aud iodine. Canada is
fahout to apply like methods to its
nickle and asbestos production.
England to safeguard its rubber
producers, cuts production to 60
per cent to secure remunerative
prices for its rubber planters. This
is the only and safe way to secure
adequate prices, wages and profit.
Producers must combine to coordinate production to demand. It
is infinitely better to secure international co-operation for the coordination of production and the
'stabilization of the price level than
for any nation to attempt it alone
After all, the world is an economic
unit.

The Mining Laws of this Province are more liberal and the fees lower than those of any other Province
in the Dominion, or any Colony in the British Empire.
Mineral locations are granted to discoverers for nominal fees.
Absolute Titles are obtained by developing such properties, security of which is guaranteed by
Crown Grants.
Practically all British Columbia Mineral Properties upon which development work has been done
are described in some one of the Annual Beports of the Minister of Mines. Those considering

Fellows Dance
A large crowd attended the Empire Day Dance under the auspices
of the Local I. 0. 0. P. The Hall

red white and blue streamers,
which were very prettily arranged,
The Moobo orchestra was in

usually good music. A very tasty
supper was served in the dining

full justice by those present.

Craggs and R. Strand.
Anyox Fishing Good
A great many salmon are being
taken in the bay this season.
Every evening the local fishing
fleet can be seen trolling back and
forth past the Coke Plant, and
very few of the ardent Isaac Walt-
ons come in disappointed, This
season has seen the largest run of
Salmon in the bay for years.
Fire Injures Logging Engine
On Tuesday evening a fire
occurred at the big logging engine
of F. L. Housley. It broke out an
hour or two after the completion of

Your Social Position
and Clothes by
eishman
It has been proved many a time that Hood
appearance has a definite value in the social,
business and industrial world.   It builds
prestige and earns dividends.
Being well-dressed induces a firmer step—
a snappier stride—a better personal appeal,
and an increased self-confidence.
Wearer's of IRISHMAN'S CLOTHES are
men who realize that good clothes are one
of their greatest assets socially and financially.   They know that clothes bearing
the Leishman Label keep their shape and
good appearance long after mediocre clothes
would be worn out.
