A sketch et Ste - phen Foster's lite was gîven by Reconstruction Plans Dr. Wallace said that the Do- minion Committee on Reconstruc- tion has one broad idea that, if possible, full time employment should be developed and main- tained after the war. Obviously that involved many difficulties, but on the other hand the people today are witnessing general em- ployment for the specific purpose of winning the war. Colonel Nicholson, a Montreal lawyer who lost his right arm in the last war, spoke for the Can- adian Legion and its hopes. He recalled that the Legion at its na- tional convention in Winnipeg last May called upon Federal and Pro- vincial Governments to work out long range plants for the absorp- tion of the returning forces in ad- equate employment, and also that the preliminary steps be taken now. Co-operation of Govern- ment in this planning was empha- sized as essential, and the Gan- araska survey was viewed as an earnest of intention, "and was hailed as first step to the desired objective." "'Our interest in conservation and reforestation is the possibility of finding jobs for the chaps who corne back from the war. And we feel that a broad program of this kind must be integrated into the economic structure of the coun- tr?, a a Vast Problem "We realize that this is a vast problem," Colonel Nicholson said. "Reforestation and conservation is only one scheme the Legion is ad- vocating. We don't want to be told there is no money."' "We are not financial experts and the Legion is not advocating newer theories of currency con- trol, but it is obvious to us, as it must be to everybody that what happened in 1918 must not be permitted to happen again. Other speakers were Dr. Det- wiler, who spoke of the conserva- tion aspect of the Ganaraska pro- ject, and A. H. Richardson, who was in charge of the survey and showed kodachrome slides of the watershed country, featuring the "gulleying" in the hilîs, erosion, and sand drift.

Ganaraska Watershed Survey Discussed at Conservation Banquet Consequences of deforestation were described at Port Hope, by Dr. R. C. Wallace, principal of Queen's University, to a joint meeting of the Ontario Conserv- ative Association and citizens et Northumberland and Durham counties. "We have permitted our re- sources te be depleted by unwise exploitation to such an extent that it is now imperative that steps be taken to restore the soil fertility or forest growth-or both. Other- wise we face senieus impoverish- ment." Dr. Wallace was referring to the findîngs et the Ganaraka watershed survey conducted by A. H. Richardson. Importance of the survey, Dr. Wallace continued, lay net only in the tabulations showing that de- forestation is a highly detrimental factor, but that post-war planning could be based to a great extent on the fact that new forest pro- jects might absonb large numbens of soldiers or war workens until peacetime industny was re-estab- lished on a normal footing. "The Ganaraska area," Dr. Wal- lace remarked, is looked upon from the standpoint of what can be done to provide the soundest and most prosperous economic life of the area that the wisdom and scientific ability of man can de- vise."1. 6ET OFF TM A FING START EVFERYMIORN/N60I At an impressive candlelight ceremony December 2nd, at 7.30 o'cieck, in Giles boulevard United Church, Windsor, Miss Editb Kathleen H.
