Production of atou cars for ciliAn use is being stopped, as well as radios; the output ýof ma-ny houi.seýhold articles and appliances stopp-ed or substantiýaliy reduced. Sugar has been rationed.

The mfiî"ae being elimiinated and variety of output is being lessened. Construction puojects are severely restricted. A sanivage organization is collecing scuap and waste mnaterial ta help f eed the hungry miilîs of war. In the next fiscai year the Damiinili spend the uinprecedent- ed am of $30500 millions, 03,000 mnillionis of whlicb i-wiil l ho for war.

Hle expresses the Bitish peaýpie's spirit of -unbuenkabie rosis- tance btter than anWvane else bas been able Vo do i. Churchili hlm- self is reported ta bave remarked in Otta'wa, 'ýMy streagth lies la the fa-ct that I amr.ahi-e Vo put into wards the thinga that a-ue la the ainds of thoe-British -,)eople." A few wecks ag-o Chaý-chili cauld do a-o wuoa. Now-ý certain sec- tions af the Âmeicaa presla particular, but aisa of the B-itish and Cana-dia-n press, ha-vo turned against -Chai-chili. They seaun bis wýau stuategy. Weil, on the recor-d it has noV heen too goad. They dialike bis obstinate Ioyalty ta some of bis mare seond-rate associates.

Bt total yield 'peu acre is not the only argument la favaur of alfalla for pasture. Of equal imponrtance is the fa-ct tha-t alfa-Ifa- romains productive aveu a longea' ps-eaon than any other grass or logo-mo specios iacluded in the tests.
