Valmore Bienvenue, Minister of Game and Fisheries, got first reading in the Legislative Assembly today to a bill to authorize the Lieutenant Governor-in-Council to permit prospecting for minerals and mining operations in the Gaspesian National Park, notwithstanding the general prohibition in the National Parks Act. This power will have retroactive effect since July 3. 1S4L The conditions for such explorations will be determined by the Lieutenant-Governor-in-CounciL British Government Wants It to Continue as Instrument of Democracy Toronto, March 9 Eliot War-burton, of the office of the British High Commissioner to Canada in Ottawa, today outlined to the Advertising and Sales Club of Toronto the problems faced by the advertisers in wartime Britain. Mr. Warburton, who is in charge of the information service in the commissioner's office and was chairman of the Incorporated Society of British Advertisers in 1939, described advertising as an instrument of democracy.

The British government, he said, feels that advertising should continue during the war as a means of promoting good-will in the postwar period and also because it gives "independence to the press." Since the war started Britain has been a seller's market, he explained, and there has been little need for advertising to sell goods. Reduction in newsprint supply has served to reduce newspaper advertising while there is no radio advertising whatever. The BBC, he said, does not handle advertising while continental stations which did accept advertising are now in enemy territory. Mr. Warburton said that the functions of wartime advertising in Britain were to help promote the national effort, to develop goodwill and to help the cause of peace in the "brave new wprld." BRITAIN'S INCOME UP Chancellor May Report Sur plus Over His Estimates (Wireless to The New York Times and The Gazette.) London, March 9.

Continuance of the recent high level of exchequer returns for the last three weeks of the current financial year will enable the Chancellor of the Exchequer to record "a surplus over his estimate for the year," it is stated. Last week's return shows ordinary revenue of 2,591.656,805. compared with the estimate of an increase of nearly over the corresponding week last year. Income taxpayers provided only 15,040,000 short of what Sir Kingsley Wood expected. Two other items have exceeded expectations, customs duties bringing in 825,757,000.

compared with an estimate of 805,000.000. and miscellaneous receipts totaling 936.692, against an estimate of 21.000.000. The cost of the armed forces comes out at 4.860,224,307, com pared, with an estimate of 5,364, 493,000. The total or ordinary expenditure stands at 5.179.596,536, against an expectea Plans are underway to stagger school holidays in England and Wales this year so that more than 250,000 boys will be available to help with the harvest.

FURNEAUX MONTAGUE VAN R.C.A.F., who was previously reported missing and is now for official purposes presumed dead, according to word received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Van Geun, 3453 Peel street.

Born in Birmingham, England, 23 years ago, Sgt. Van Geun came with his family to Montreal when he was a small child. He enlisted in the R.C.A.F. shortly after completing his senior matriculation at the High School of Montreal, Training at Eglington, Ont, and later at Edmonton, where he participated in the opening of an air observers' school. Sgt.

Van Geun took part in R.C.A.F. raids over Esseh.

The commission answers the latter question itself when it pro poses state insurance, with payment on a tripartite basis, the state, the employer and the 'employee and his family.

The Commission is of opinion that with the system suggested in force there would be more treatment of the sick at home, instead of them being sent to hospital by the doctors, who, in their turn, find themselves unable to treat patients at their homes when tne latter have not the financial means to pay. DOCTORS DON'T BENEFIT. As to the medical profession, the commission is of the opinion that they have fared poorly under the Public Charities Act. "The present system of assistance has in no way favored the medical profession; in effect, it provides only for the hospitalization of indigents-and provides for no compensation for the attending physician. The latter finds himself In a situation analogous to the institution' in that he tmust count upon the revenue coming irom nis weu-to-ao clientele to oe in a measure to exercise a charity.

which does him honor, in taking care ot the uniortunate. bhould he not be compensated for his care and service rendered to society? Furthermore, the poor, finding themselves faced with the impossibility of paying medical fees, often delay in asking for medical care. That is why we nave to cfe-plore premature deaths and the admission to hospitals of sick people in danger, who otherwise could be easily treated at home. "The doctor under the present system can only with difficulty concern himself with preventive medicine in the poor classes of society, still another domain unexplored here, and where interventions are necessary."

The district of Chandler sent a wire that it had collected $800 to date and was making good progress, while Cowansville reported that both men and women are collecting on behalf of the Red Cross and they expect to exceed their local objective.

EXTRA SPRING HELP FORBADE GLEANERS (Continued from Page 11.) tq put upon Canadian homes the burden of the cleaning work now done by the Industry, he added. Home laundering and cleaning takes five times longer than if the same job is done by a laundry or cleaning plant. This meant that the service now performed by the industry would take 260,000,000 work hours to do in the home, "or the equivalent of 60,000 people employed the year round. It would also require 17,000,000 more pounas oi soap, tnousanas of extra tons of coal to heat water, and thousands of additional kilo watts of electric power for iron ing, ne estimated. Mr.

Smith declared also that commercial laundering had been demonstrated to be more sanitary and to ensure the absolute cleanli ness of clothes far better than home laundering. He reported that irl a survey conducted in the United States, by an authority selected after consulting the American Med ical Association, bacterial counts were taken of rinses from cleaned clothes in 162 laundries and large number of homes doing their own washing. The average count for the laun dries, he said, was 31 per cubic centimetre compared with 318.792 per c.c. lor home washings. One home had a count of 1,087,550.

The chief reason why laundry-washed ciomes were iu.uuo times more sterile, he believed, was that laundrv equipment permitted the water to be maintained at a high temperature for long periods, while in homes the heat of the water dropped after the clothes were put in, In effect, he said, clothes were pasteurized at the laundry before oeing returned to the customer. With the same machinery and plants, reduced supplies, official restrictions on operations and labor, and serious difficulties in maintaining working forces and services, the Industry was making a vital contribution both on the home front and in many phases of the war effort, Mr. Smith declared. Along with a tremendously increased demand from homes, restaurants and commercial establishments, the industry was keeping clean millions of uniforms, blankets, linen and other pieces for the armed forces, the merchant marine, industrial workers (uniforms), plant cafeterias and hospitals. Other war work -includes flashproofing of gunners' masks, fireproofing of clothing of workers in certain lines of work, fireproofing of curtains and household goods, and similar war precautions.

Mr. Smith pointed out that the laundries were getting extra business from homes now without servants or where women members of the family were doing war work. He reported that a survey of war workers across Canada showed that 47 per cent, "used commercial laundry services and 53 per cent, washed at home. Of the latter group, a negligible number got a friend to do the washing and about one sixth washed on their days off. But another sixth took a day off for laundering and three-fifths washed after they got home from work.

The speaker stressed the contribution to wartime absenteeism of those who took a day off for washing, and remarked that washing and ironing at night hardly ensured efficient performances at work the following day. The laundry and cleaning industry-provided one of the three major safeguards of the health, hygiene and control of disease of the national community, Mr. Smith asserted. In wartime its work too on added importance through the conservation and longer usage ot fabrics of all kinds, thereby easing the demand for textile factory labor and avoidinz any threat is FRESHER at DEATHS BARCLAY.
