This compares with $5,122,000,000 in 1952, an in-| crease of nearly $300,000,000. | He predicted that more money | will be employed for expansion in| trade, finance and commercial en- | terprises, as well as niining and oil drilling. Housing, hospital, uni- versity, church and other institu~ ter. Investment declines were esti. mated for agriculture, fishing and other primary industries as well as manufacturing. However, invest- ment by various governments | would be higher. Mr. Howe made the prediction | in a 22-page booklet, tabled in the Commons, on the outlook of pri-| vate and public investment. The | forecast, if fulfilled, would raise total investment in Canada since | the Second World War to $30,000, | 000,000.

Government brakes on non-essen- tial building have been removed, and for the first time since the | Second World War, said Mr. Howe, | "the capital expenditure intentions | will not be subject to any serious limitations from material short- ages."
