THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., MAY 17, 1945 ' SURRENDER TO MONTGOMERY Admiral von Friedeburg, Supreme Commander for the German Navy, signs surrender pact as Field Marshal Montgomery looks on An estimated 1,000,000 Germans laid down their arms in Denmark, Holland, and northwestern Germany. VOICE OF THE PRESS SPEED OF THE FUTURE Some visionary foresees that planes of the future will fly 100,000 miles in 60 minutes.

A humorist replies: "The trouble is, they do!" -- Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph. NO ILLUSION MAC DONALD'S BRIER CHINA'S SOONG Dr. T. V. Soong, head of the Chinese delegation to the Security Conference, probably is tops among the Chinese who have sought to modernize his country's economy by introducing Occidental methods and who, by their famil-iaritiy with both c i v i lizations, have contributed enormously to understanding between East and West. Soong is a graduate of Harvard Uni-versity, took p o s tgraduate Soong work at Co. lumbia University and worked in a New York bank before returning to enter the government of his sister's husband, Dr. Sun Yat-sen. After Sun's death in 1925 Soong worked with Chiang Kai-shek, who two years later married another of Soong's sisters. The respect in which Soong ia held by western nations springs in ■ part from his personality and wide acquaintance, anu in part from his remarkable success with the extremely complicated tangle of Chinese finances. This had specific evidence in 1933 when, for the first time in modern history, he balanced China's budget. Since two weeks after Pearl Harbor he has been Minister of Foreign Affairs. Canadian Lumber For British Homes The British government has air ready earmarked around $150,000, 000 for timber from Canada for delivery following the cessation hostilities, states The Calgary Herald. Filling of this huge order may prevent the inauguration of home building operations in this country on the scale needed, but British necessity is greater than that of Canadians, who have not had one home demolished by eneiV- action throughout the war. OTTAWfl_BEPORTS That Munitions Minister Howe Forecasts Minimum Disturbance In Conversion From War To Peace In Canada Based on information from the United Kingdom and the United States, the immediate war production picture in Canada was that aircraft production would continue indefinitely, and there would continue to be a high rate of delivery of ships well into 194G. Production of railway equipment would be stepped up to supply domestic and foreign demands. There would,be a cutback ii» explosives in line with ammunition demands, but chemicals for agricultural and other in high rate. Gun and small arms ammunition would be cut progressively. Armored vehicles production would decline sharply. There would be partial conversion in automotive vehicles from military to civilian requirements which would keep factories fully engaged. War and civilian demands would keep production of raw and semi-processed materials high. 1 of c Product together with prodi ports to liberated countries, would absorb manpower released by the lessening of war production, Mr. Howe said. He pajd tribute to the excellent plans laid by most ^of Canada's industries for the period just beginning and stated that in many of these reconversion would mean simply the moving of workers from one machine to another. Canada will have a carry over of about 300,000,000 bushels of wheat at th: end of the crop year, July 31, and the United States, about 350,-000,000 the Dominion Bureau of Statistics estimates. This would be the lowest midsummer figure since Officials from Dominion Department of Agriculture, accompanied by United States Department of Agriculture representatives, will go to Fort William later this month to observe tests being made in the NirJigon region to destroy the Spruce Sawflv. RCAF crewf flying PBY'S will spray the new DDT insecticide on timber stand* there in experimental tests. Stalingrad Reborn All Stalingrad celebrated when the 3,000th tractor was recently turned out in the giant planf^^l born from the ruins and ashes^Wt | by the German invaders. Engineers and workers, most of whom fought in defence of Stalingrad, carried out their pledge to rebuild this pride of the Soviet tractor industry in the shortest possible time. ™ WE CAN T Fill ■ : I jJlj OUT OF A PECK MEASURE It is estimated that about 72,000 people in Canada want to buy a new heating system. A good percentage of them would like a CLARE-HECLA Furnace. Even with normal production we would not be able to meet the demand. And materials and manpower are still very much restricted.
