washings ton there will also be the announce ment of means to be adopted by the government in the campaign against unemployment transportation questions win fill a good deal of the time of the parlia ment not only will these important and baffling problems be discussed in a special committee of the senate and the canadian- nauonaj deficit he te- subject of debate in the commons but mr howes transport bill will have still to run the gamut of investi gation and criticism before r it be comes law hitherto the railways only have been untter a board of regu lation the board of railway com missloners under the new bill this board to be called the- board of transport commissioners will control rates on inland shipping except bulk commodities such as grain and coal and air traffic as well as coastal ship ping via the panama canal the bill isnt an attack on the railway prob lem along the whole line it is a prepared advance in certain segments of the line highway traffic being under the control of the provinces except for the small interprovinclal traffic is not included the grim and forbidding fortress of the rail way problem itself stul remains in the path the bill however repre sents a real advance and the general opinion appears to be that the trans portation situation will be consider ably improved if threatened opposi tion is overcome and it passes into law the visit of the british air mission interest has been aroused by the visit of a british air mission to am erica it is hoped and believed that after making the rounds of aircraft manufacturing plants in the united states and carrying- out negotiations for delivery of aircraft to britain from that country they will make a similar extensive tour of canadian factories many people feel that the delivery of aircraft rrom factories in canada relatively more immune from aerial attack on account of distance than plants in the united kingdom would not only stimulate our air craft mahufacturing industry but would be a genuine contribution to defence national defence estimates there is likely to be a lively dis cussion over the balance of the de fence estimates when they are brought up in parliament but in view of the bitter truths in regard to the world situation which have been driven home to peace loving and peace sup porting canadians during the past few months there will in all prob ability be little serious obstruction to the appropriations a mr macken zie the minister of national defence said in an explanatory speech at van couver last wednesday the bulk of the criticism now being directed against the estimates is that they are too small as he pointed out the de fence programme is directed to the defence of our trade routes along which flow our wheat timber miner als and other commodities which are part of the ufeblood of our industries defence of our ports and of our neu- iucjtralltt 1 case some nation on the acton mrr n brown has purchased the sandy mann farm just east of

truths will seem to many ca as unanswerable the onus on the defence ministry seem gradually to be swerving from proving defence is needed to proving that the measures being adopted are adequate for
