OTTAWA. May 10.-The Journal in an editorial today says:

“Due to a letter addressed by A. H. Jarvis of Ottawa, to the United States Consul-General here, steps‘ have been taken by the State De-znlw- DR" partment at Washington which‘ may result in the future accept- ance of‘ Canadian currency at all centres across the line. Hesitatlon on this score on the part of Am-, ericans in many districts has long‘ been a source of inconvenience and‘ annoyance to Canadian visitors tol the United States although we arc‘

Despite that the‘ American dollar is accepted with-l out question over here, there are many places and business houses and hotels across the border where‘ the Canadian dollar is no more re-‘ garded than if it were the paper of Soviet Russia. l

On March 28th last Mr. Jarvis‘ brought this fact to the attention of the United States Consulate here,‘ suggesting that in the cause of good will between the two countries ignite effort might be made toward‘

tterment. The United States Com; sul referred the matter to the State; Department at Washington, asking; that it be referred to the United States Chamber of_ Commerce, and he is now in receipt of instructions that this has been done."

TORONTO, May 10.-Practically all of Northern Ontario on the‘ southern watershed of the height‘ of land is in a flooded condition, ac- cording to Col. C. H. L. Jones, Gon- eral Manager of the Spanish River Pulp and Paper Company who is in Toronto. The condition is unpre- cedented in his experience. Ail the rivers are higher than in their us- ual state of flood.

“They are all on the rampage“ he said. "You can see floods everywhcrc upon rivers flowing from the north.“ His company's plants at Espanoh and Sturgeon are closed down he- cause of water on the floors, but there has been no real damage. It

opened by next week. - At the main plant, he said, "no- thing has been knocked down and nothing swept away, but we arc having a hard time. We had to stop production on account of the water, and filling of contracts has been in- terfered with.

Col. Jones was at Queen's Park in conference with surveyor-general L. V. Rorke concerning flood con- trcl measures on northern rivers and Iother matters concerning his comp- any.
