GILBERT Maintaining a keen interest in education and in Sunday School work during her life- time, Lillie J. Gilbert, died on Monday, February 10, 1975, in Marnwood Nursing Home, Bowmanville, in her 95th year, following a lengthy illness, Born in Enniskillen, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Gilbert, she was educated in Bowmanville High School and Peterborough Teacher's Coflege. A teacherby profession she taught in several local scbools and in Toronto, residinfg in Toronto for many years, and at 25 Centre Street, Bowman- ville.

The projected increases in em- ploymient together with rising wages, a modierate rise -in farm income and the effect of tax reductions should contri- bute to a growth in consumer spending of just under 4 percent. Capital spending will be "extremely strong", both be- cause many projects planned, last year are in an, avanced stage of implementation and because financial markets may well be a little easier this year. The forecast calîs for an overali real gain of 9 percent. On the other hand, housing will remain relatively weak. The Bank believes that bous- ing starts in 1975 could exceed Finance Minister Turner's earlier forecast of 200,000 by perhaps 5,000 to 10,000 units. But this would stili mean that total real spending on housing would faîl by about 15 percent. Slow invenitory accumula- tion rnay be another negative torce, althougb, an involuntary buildup of inventories due to slow sales and some rebuild- ing of run-down stocks may render the decline moderate by the standards of recent economic slowdowns. Thede- dline is expected to occur mainly in the first baîf of the year. Exports are expected to continue their sluggish perf or- mance, with a drop in volume in the order of 312 percent to add to the decline of about 11'2 last year. Although improving external conditions should bring higher sales in the second haif, the export sector is nonetheless facing one of the largest annual decreases in volume since 1954.. -With imports- of goods and services expecte d to rise sharply, Canada's balance of trade "seems fated to deterio,- rate deeply into deficit, indeed into the Magest ever recorded ed," As a result the exchange value of the Canadian dollar-' will almost certainly weaken, even though large capital inflows will have a cushioning effect.1 Otfsetting these drags on the economy to some degree will 'be a strong rise in federal and provincial government spend- ing. The inflation-inspired re- trenchment in the smaller municipalities will moderate the total rise in government spending only slightly to a real increase of 6.5 percent. The Review p oints out that Canada so far h as weathered the slide in worldwide econo- mic activity q uite well, des- pite the fact that real G.N.P. has not risen in the last three quarters. Activity is expected to continue slow through the first haîf, but growth pro- spects should improve mark- edly if the external environ- ment, improves later in the year as forecast.
