BRITAIN WINNING (Continued from Page 4) the training of not only skilled men but in management. She must study the matter of deployment whereby workers can be shifted around where they are most need- ed and necessary. TRIBUTE TO UNIONS Lord Rochdale paid tribute to the large unions in Britain who had come to realize that they have in- creased productivity responsibiliti- ties and are making an important contribution to industrial develop- ment at this time. MEET CHANGING CONDITIONS Broadly speaking, said Lord Rochdale, Britain must be prepar- ed to change her industrial pat- tern to meet the needs and de- mands of a changing world, and she was in a large measure doing this very thing. "Unless we meet the challenge of the changing world we shill fall back to more | difficult times than we have here- tofore experienced,"" he said. The speaker pointed out that in the field of research Britain was working on several things at the present time, among them a snrall atomic heating plant, and gas turbines for boats, ships, railways, ete. It was essential to look ahead in 'in- | dustry of tomorrow as well as to- | 'day, Lord Rochdale said. SHOW GREAT INCREASES Eord Rochdale said that indus- trial expansion and production in Britain today "were showing great increases, illustrating the gradual change in the pattern of British industry. The Motherland was get- ting away from the old and tradi- tional industries, in such fields for instance, as engineering, where great industrial strides had been made, But, he pointed out, "we cannot have a change such as this unless our basic industries are thriving." Lord Rochdale said that much criticism had been levelled against coal miners because the true facts were not known. "Tell those who criticize that the coal miners in Britain today are pro- ducing more coal Ri mine per man than in any other country in Europe," he said. OTHER DEVELOPMENTS Britain was developing her elec- tric power, which had been increas- ed today to roughly three more times than the beginning of the war. She had also overcome a great shortage of steel, with pro- duction increasing from thirteen million tons to sixteen million tons since 1946. Speaking of textiles and ship- building, Lord Rochdale said that 40 percent of the world's tonnage was now in British shipyards. "In our newest industries lies our greatest hope," he said, naming those turning out tractors, aircraft, lastics and machinery of many inds, PRICE COMPETITION Admitting the seriousness of price competition in the world mar- kets, Lord Rochdale said that here again Britain was overcoming dif- ficulties, in the field of engineering in particular. Against this compe- tition, and despite the effects of U.S. trade restrictions, two large contracts had recently been secur- by British firms in the United States. He pointed also to the fact that Nash Motors, an American concern, had found it necessary to build a plant in Britain for export king | from that country, He emphasized also that Britain must balance her trade with the United States. THE APPROACH TO INDUSTRY Lord Rochdale said that Britain could best make use of her produc- tive effort in the markets of the world by seeking to increase her trade in markets not only the Commonwealth countries but the nations open to British trading. Here, he said, was the pattern of British exports today: Half go to countries of the sterling area; one- quarter to Europe; one-twentieth to the United States, This pattern has grown over a jod of years and Britain must develop from it and build upon it. She must open a two-way trade to world markets for she rhust either go back or ex- pand. She must seek to improve her position in the sterling areas and gain more dollars. THE PATH TO PEACE Lord Rochdale in closing placed great stress on the need for ex- pansion of Commonwealth trade and the development and strength- ening of the Commonwealth family of nations, which, he declared is a very potent factor in the acHieve- ment of world peace. The thanks of the Club for the very fine address which he said had been an inspiration and source of great information how Britain was heroically winning a great fight against economic and social problems was expressed by Presi- dent Creighton. RELIEF FUND HISTORIC VOLUMES HALIFAX (CP)--pDalhousie law school has received a seven-volume set of Campbell's "Lives of the Lord Chancellors," once the prop- erty of Hon. S. L.

Wood Bylaws Still In Force In Oil City EDMONTON (CP)--In a city heated almost entirely by natural gas, there still exists an Edmonton firewood by-law regulating loads and sales and providing for prose- cution of firewood salesmen short- weighting customers. While many such regulations rarely are .used, they remain on the books, either because there is no hurry to repeal them or be- Save Money on cause of the possibility they may become useful in future. | One city legal official suggested ; that most of these horse-and-buggy by-laws are allowed to lie idle be- cause it would require too many | policemen to enforce them. { One antiquated by-law requires | the pound-keeper to know how to | milk a cow. Under a law never | repealed he is required to milk | impounded cows twice daily, get- | ting use of the milk as compensa~ | tion. Besides being an offence to per-! mit a horse, mule, bull, steer, cow, goat, sheep, swine or poultry to| run at large in the city, it is illegal to let pigeons loose. Exercising the pitching arm with | snowball throwing is as much | against the law as throwing stones | and ice, or using bows and arrows | or sling shots. { One by-law which seems to con- | tradict even civic practice says! that salt is not to be used on side- walks or roads for dissolving snow and ice. Also, there is a much- abused law which states that it is an offence to wash your car on the street. Rhorigines Hounded Aged Beasts SYDNEY, Australia (CP)--Scien- tists now say they know that aborigines lived in Australia when | giant long-extinct beasts roamed | the country. Dr. Edmund Gill, of the Mel. | bourne National Museum, has | found a quartzite weapon, worked | by hand, among the bones of giant animals at Lake Colongulac, Vic- toria. . He says that the giant animals included koalas (known the world over as Australia's teddy bears) as big as small elephants, giant kangaroos and giant birds twice as tall as a man. Australia was then a vast for- est with many inland lakes. But the lakes dried up and as the giant animals were mostly vegetarians their food supply gradually dis- appeared. Unable to travel far for further supplies of, food, they too disapeared.
