PAGE TEN THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, "TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1940 "ANADA PLANE PRODUCTION WILL BE TRIPLED IN YEAR DEPUTY AIR CHIEF REVEALS Dominion to Have 2,000 More Pilots by 1941 Toronto, Oct. 8 -- Within a yeer nada's aircraft production, now 2 times greater than before the began, will be tripled Six housand airmen are at this mom- nt in various stages of training, before the year is up, 2,000 more vill be added. A total of 10,000 men how find employment in the air- | ft industry. inside of 12 months his figure will be doubled These were the salient points re- pealed before the Canadian Club at e Royal York yesterday by James | B. Duncan, deputy minister of Na- jonal Defense for Air, who out- ined the development of the Em- pire Air Training plan. At the present time, he asserted, there are more men overseas, more men on ome defense, more men in train- ng, schools in operation. mere air- fdromes constructed and more build- ngs ready for occupancy than were ontemplated in the original plans. Before the war began, Mr. Dun- an explained, aircraft production did not amount to $1.000,000 and less than 1,000 men were employed, vhile at the present time orders to- alling over placed with many Canada to-day. he ing ac many planes per head of popuiation, United States. NO LIMIT IS SET "We have no artificial limit our minds to the exten' of the a we hope to send Britain," declared Mr. Duncan. "We are going to seek continually for wavs and means of speediing up the process. In June only four mont ago, we had but S500 air pilots, air gunners and air observers under training That' number has jumped to 6,000 and by the end of the year the figure wil be at least 8,000. We have some 8.- | 000 ground men in training at the present time, and the strength of this staff by the end of the year will be about 14,000, or a 20 per cent. increase cver the original plan, "Our department dustion tells me," speaker, "that "their long-range program contemplates, with the possible exception of aero-engines, a completely integrated, self-con- tained industry, capable of produc- ing anything from a primary train- er to the largest long-range heavy bomber. "By the end of the year we shall have trained twice as many pil as the plan originaly contemplated. We will have 48 schools of vari kinds in operation as against 36 the plan called for, and during the same nericd twice as many men as were planned for will have been sent overseas. I believe there is room for confidence. but none for complacency." YOUTH URGED TO GIVE Mr. Duncan appealed tb Cana- dians to "give of oursel ingly," emulating the = of young men in the Royal Cane Air Force. "Our country nor valor in its clared. "If we lack any "it is rather in an adult of the task confronting us." Another great task, he said, was being done by the R.C.AF. in con- junction with the Royal Canadian Navy--that of the defense of the east and west coasts. Since the war started, the speaker declared, more than 3,000 ships, rep-eseniing over 17,000,000 tons had already left Canadian shores and not one of these chips have been lost on this side of the Atlantic while under Canadian protection. "They represent the very of those beleaguered Great Britain," he said. "They are the life line of Canada, too, which could not live without the freedom of her trade routes. And yet enemy has not been able fo claim a single ship in Canadian waters . .. If the enemy did not know of the thoroughness of these patrols, he would be lurking daily in our home waters and yet we hear little of these the seas."
