J. J. Doyle, Director, Recommended Accommodations. Dominion Automo- hile Association, who has a more than ordinary interest in these activities, had D..A.'s Statistical Research De- partmcnt gather Up some figures which uncovered a surprising ignorance bv Canadians of their campatriots and where their campatriots live. Up until the axe feli on the Canad- ian dollar ini 1962. an astonishing 25%o cif native Canadians had neyer been in anolher Pr-ovince in Canada other tbart the one in which they lived. Another 20',- had livcd in, or at some time had visited one Province, other than their rurî'ent rrsidonce.

Ojne major point is worth tof note: fram a tiade standpoint, Canada is aur host, custamner by a wide mam'gio. Canada buvs $3.8 billion annuallv in US. gonds, more than the next two foreigýn customezrs comhined. Ontario Province alone buys more U.S. gonds than anv other country. It is a sore point with Canadians that their balance oif trade with this country is about $1 billion in the red.

Municipal counicils, nevertheless, have the re- xponsibility ta see to it that builders oif apartment blocks, office buildings, ec., provide off-street parking facilities. Clogging the public streets with park- Pd x'ehicles can lead ta public outcries for law similar ta that in Tokyoi. *Atitttped cas ,oenduu( JOHN M. JAMES EDITOR-PUBLASMER here in Durham.
