"You can see that we are taking the thing rather seriously," he said. in revealing that tHe original dele- gation had been doubled to include representatives &f virtually everv branch of Provincial Government and every phase of social, educa- tional and industrial activity. Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of Lands and Forests, will géemain be- hind as Acting Premi Besides the Premier, the Ontarigfdelegation will consist of Hon. T. B, McQues- ten, Minister of Highways and Mu- nicipal Affairs; Hon. H. C. Nixon, Provincial Secretary and Minister of Fish and Game; Hon. N. O. Hipel, Minister of Labor and Welfare; Hon. Gordon Conant, Attorney- General; Hon. Duncan McArthur, Minister of Education; and Hon. Robert Laurier, Minister of Mines. The Premier has called a meeting of the Cabinet for Saturday morn- ing at which there will be a full- dress discussion of the brief which the group of seven will present at the Ottawa conference on the Sirois Report recommendations. Premier Hepburn maintained his silence upon the Government's in- tention at the Ottawa conference. It is common knowledge, however, that its opposition to a holus-bolus adop- tion of the Sirois Report is un- changed. It is particularly opposed to any move tc have Confederation rewritten during the war emer- gency and, in line with the Pre- mier's brief at the Queen's Park hearing of the Royal Commission on Dominion-Provincial Affairs, it is opposed to Federal encroachment on Provincial rights. RIDE IN BRITISH TANK DESCRIBED (Continued from Page 1) tank commander and drove in a down-hill charge manoeuvre with a famous British regiment, well- known to Canadian troops in Eng- land. Flankéd by other tanks, the squadron staged a modern 'charge of the Light Brigade" that would put the old cavalry to shame for terrorizing the enemy--and a news- paperman. The gunner in our crew was Sgt. H. A. Scott of Winnipeg. In another tank was Sgt. W. J. Trump, also of Winnipeg. These and other Cana- dians throughout the armored units are carrying out responsible duties. The tanks nosed over the crest of the hill in file and at the signal of the commander our leading tank spurted forward and lurched down a steep incline. "Push your foot down and make her move," the commander shouted through the loudspeaker to the driver. A cloud of dust swept over the turret from the whirling caterpillar treads. The machine gathered the mo- mentum of a runaway locomotive and smashed down on the target near the base of the hill. The squad. ron roared along behind. Suddenly LISTEN IN!

Then the turret whipped back into forward position and in a smashing finale the target was hypothetically demolished. We counted our body bruises. Sgt. Scott grinned up from the bottom of the tank, apparently unshaken. "I used to be a heavyweight wrestler in our west," was his dry comment. WAR GUESTS ARE EXEMPTED IN TAX LEVY Ontario Annoules Plan Whereby Those Liable for Income Return Can Deduct $400 Per Child Toronto, Dec. 5 esidents of the province who ar® now housing or prov iding for British war guests will be given provincial income tax exemptions of $400 per child, Premier Hepburn announced yes- terday. The order went into force some months ago, the Premier said, af- ter the matetr had been discussed with Chester S. Walters, co.aptrol- ler of revenue, and an amendment to the Provincial Income Tax Act will go before the Legislature for ratification. The Premier said Ottawa had been so advised because the Fed- eral Government collects for the province its income tax. HAIL TRADE PACT WITH TURKEY AS BRITISH ADVANGE (Continued from Page 1) sterling, with Turkey sending Brit- ain mainly agriculturgl products in exchange for woolens, cotton, loco- motives, wagons and munitions. "Under the new arrangement," The Times declared, "Turkey will be free to develop her economy in co-operation with the British Em- pire. On our side we now effectively challenge the great German share of the Turkish market." The accord, which the foreign of- fice announced both governments hoped would "bring about a consid- erable increase in their trade," pro- vides that payments between Turkey and nations of the sterling area be made at the existing rate of ex- change between the Turkish lire and the pound sterling. It complements a trade andspayw ments pact signed between Britain and her non-belligerent ally in the Near East last Feb. 3 and also stipu- lates that "special accounts" be created to facilitate commercial and other payments between y and the British Empire, (In another Balkan devellpment the semi-official paper Ulus in"An- kara praised recent improvementa'in Turkish-Bulgaria" relations and suggested that "certain injustices to Bulgaria" could be adj peace- fully. This apparently "referred to Bulgarian demands for an outlet to the Aegean Sea.) TANKS, MOBILITY IS ARMY KEYNOTE (Continued from Page 1) mans invented a number of ingeni- ous things which we later adapted and beat them at their own game. We are feeling confident now that | we have taken another leaf from their book regarding mechanized fighting." Armored units in the new British army are equipped with light tanks, cruiser tanks and ponderous vehicles of enormous tonnage. Motorcycle and reconnaissance squads with a variety of armored cars operate with these tanks. British officers said many of the tanks are better than the Nazis have yet devised and new mobile guns provide fire power never be- fore achieved--and there seems to be quantity as well as quality. The aim is an army of techni- cians to operate the equipment and the British appear well on their way to this goal. The tank men are among the keenest in the whole military set-up. Mosfpof them are short powerful soldiers*who speak a technical jargon almost incompre- hensible to anyone trained in an- other branch of the service, Some members are from the ter- ritorials. They bring a civilian en- thusiasm to a dangerous task and well-tested civilian courage to the military areas. They are of the same stuff as the men of London and want to show it in open battle. Other regiments are from the permanent force, made up of sol- diers who already have fought against vast odds in this war and are going back for their revenge in more powerful mobile fortresses. There is the spirit of the British Expeditionary Force of Flanders and of the little man in England's cities. It is this combination of man power that operates the arm- ored units, the new army's great ac- complishment and its hope in the offensive to come, tt eee ------ Minneapolis, Dec. 5.

TREASURER (Continued from Page 1) Henry Morgenthau--and perhaps to explore the question of future as- sistance from the United States in cash or credit. The possibility that the subject of financial aid might be discussed at the scheduled conference brought new demands that complete first- hand information on Britain's pre- sent status be given congress--pre- ferably by Sir Frederick ---- before any action is considered or propos- ed. Senator Hiram Johnson (Rep. California) foresaw an imminent drive for repeal of laws now bar= ring loans to Britain and announced he would fight it to the last ditch. Barring a miracle, he said, "there is no doubt that the United States will go to war." Significance was attached in some official quarters to the fact that announcement of the Morgenthau- | Sir Frederick talks coincided with a seemingly unconnected statement by Senator Walter George Georgia) that United States in- dustry should be placed on a 24-) hour "war time" schedule if aid was to reach Britain quickly be effective. As chairman of the senate foreign relations committee, George is in a position te obtain confidential information on Bri- tain's present position and his sug- gestion consequently caused specu- lation. He spoke cnly of material aid, and not of loans, Secretary Morgenthau gave only the broadest indication of the ground he would cover Sir Frederick. He said merely British expert was here "to place the latest available information (on British finances) before sury."

Richard Rocas, an employee at the airport, said the plane was making a "perfectly normal" ap- proach to the field when suddenly the motors roared as if the pilot tried to attain height. "The plane's nose dipped down and it turned slightly to the left" he said. "Then it hit the ground and broke into flames."
