At all police points manned by the
Royal Northwest mounted police,

these routes call for only portages and

Edmonton, Alta, June 10.-Fortune
! seekers from all parts of Canada and
various parts of the United States are
gathering for their dash into the far
north oil and mineral fields when
navigation opens about the middle of
June.
Edmonton, Fort McMurray and
Peace River Crossing, the latter two
gateways into the Mackenzie river
basin oil fields, are showing signs of
great activity with large fleets on riv-
er steamers and gasoline boats get
ting ready for the short summer
transportation season.
Edmonton railroad yards are jam
ming through freight for north points
and both Fort McMurray and Peace
River Crossing are experiencing un-
precedanted prosperity and hustle. all
coming from the first wave of the oil
boom.
The little town of Fort McMurray
has already doubled it's population
since last fall and with the opening
of navigation it is expected to reach
four times its previous size. Many
new buildings are being erected.
while along the banks OF the river,
boats scows and lumber craft are be-
ing constructed
Peace River Crossing also is gar
nering its share of the rush. This
town is the temporary headquarters
of the government parties going into
the north country this year in addi-
ton to oil prospectors. Ten govern
ment parties are getting ready at
Peace River or have already taken
the field from this point, including
four Typographical, three geological
and one astronomical survey parties.
Another government party will make

tiles of the new oil fields
River men say that they will be
able to handle all freight offered for
northern points, recent heavy rains
having filled all northern streams and
solved the problem of low. water

VIM. S. Sims made no direct refer

the Irish cause today during a forty
minute address at a luncheon given
IN his honor by the American Lun-

In an apparent allusion, to his re-
marks of last Tuesday, however, when
he addressed the English Speaking
Union, Admiral Sims said:
Perhaps we have used too ener-

but let us hope they will be amicably
explained away"

.MEDICS CONSIDER
NECESSITY FOR
ANAESTHESIA
Researches Conducted to Test
Value of Method Of Surgery
In World War

Columbus, Ohio, June 10.-The
United States government, through
the Office of the surgeon general of
the war department, has presented
to the Nationan Anaesthesia Research
Society, whose headquarters are in
this city, an opportunity for what
members consider is probably the
greatest service that has come to it
since it's organization.
The war department, because of
the comment made about the use of
mixture of ether, ethyl chloride and
chloroform in field operations in the
A :. E. F., and because this depart
ment is making researches in anaes-
thesia pertaining to such operations,
has asked the National Research So
ciety to take up the subject, and sub
nit the data to the surgeon general.
The war department believes Il gen.
eral anaesthetic can be developed
which will produce complete anaes-
thesia within a few seconds and still
have all the advantages of ether. On
the basis of the recent field expert
ence, and the severe comment that
has been arousd by the use of the
above mentioned mixture, the gov
eminent is asking the Research So
ciety the following five questions:
rs there a need for an anaesthetic
of quicker action and more lasting
qualities than the mixture employed
in the A. E. F. operations?
ITO what extent was nitrous-oXide
oxygen anaesthesia or any modifi-
cation thereof used in the A. E. F.
in France?
'Is the nitrous-oxide oxygen meth
/ cd reasonably safe, practible, rapid
and economical?
rs there a combination that would
better meet the need of such an
anaesthetic, if the need exists?
SHOULD the suggestion he expert
mented with further. and, ii so, with
! in what agency?"
