OTTAWR REPORTS That Two Empire Statesmen Pralsed Canada's Part at San Francisco Conference Once implacable enemy of the British Empire, now one of its greatest and most trusted leaders, Field Marshal Jan Christian Smuts was greeted by thousands when he visited Ottawa. In the red-tabbed uniform of a British Field Marshal, he laid a wreath for the Union of South Africa at the National War Me- marial, Inspected servicemen, in- cluding a group of South African War veterans, and decorated nine returned Canadian nursing sisters representing a group of 300 who responded to the call of the South African government in 1941 to serve with the forces of that coun- try. Later he spoke vigourously and hopefully of the events of San Francisco from which he had just returned. * LJ * Despite his 75 years General Smuts steps along with the brisk- ness of an athlete. His physical fitness is attributed to a frugal life on his farm near Pretoria where he spends most of his time. His mother was of French Hugue-? not descent, his father a Dutch farmer and minor politician, Once destined for the ministry, Genéral Smuts became a lawyer,--later ~ soldier and statesman. . + * Lord Cranborne,' British secret- ary of state for the Dominions, who also came to Ottawa from San Francisco, said in an inter- view that the conference and Lon- don talks which preceded it, were good examples of how the relation- ship between the Commonwealth coumdries works under the Statute of Westminster. "There {8 no question of the coercion of one member by the others. We are all arbiters of our own fate, but, by constant consultation with each other, we are able very often to reach common view. By maintain- ing that view we can exert great influence in the affairs .of the world." Lord Cranbourne said of the Canadian delegation to San Francisco, "The amendments which they put forth were always constructive and helpful, and the contribution which they 'made left its mark upon the charter" EE EEE EEE HOTEL METROPOLE All Beautifully "Furnished With Running Water.

Not Demobilization But Re-Allocation Although it is expected that some 750,000 men will be released from the British Army by the end of the year, the mobilization of Bri- tain"s war effort remains. What is now taking place is not demoliliz- ation but re-allocation of manpower, The call-up into the forces con- tinues for men up to the age of 30, and citizens will continue to be "directed" into war jobs, although with some modifications. Men eligible for military service will no longer be drafted into the coal mines, although those called up may go into the mines instead of into the armed forces if they pre fer. The rate of release from the Royal Navy and the R.A.F. will be much slower than from the Army because of the needs of the war against Japan, which is the controlling factor of all three Ser- vices, Those now being released from the army are older men with long service, or men with special skill badly needed for urgent recon- struction work, mostly building. The former will be given eight weeks 'resettlement leave." If during that time a .man has not obtained a job (or has not elected to take up his old job under his reinstatement rights) he is liable to be drafted into a civilian war job like any other citizen, ; ' Strength of R.A.F. Cut To One Third The RAF. is to o reduced to about one-third its present strength of approximately 1,000,000 men and women in the next 12 months, ac- cording to the Air Ministry, -- Readjustment for-th~war-against Japan will bring about the release of many groups, the retraining and remustering of others and the re- 'cruiting. Some R.AF, personnel has been transferred to the Navy. The European war required 75 percent of the R.A.F.'s personnel to be based at home stations to send bomber fleets against Ger- many. In the Japanese war home- based personnel will be reduced to 60 percent of the force, -- SS ee ---- == _= | VOICE OF THE PRESS mmn-- HAVE PATIENCE Frau Goering is reported to be seeking a divorce from Hermana.

DIDN'T NEED 'EM Switzerland has started demo- bilizing, and has taken down the boulders it. was keeping ready to roll down on the heads of invaders, As it turned out, the Hun was hit with everything but an Alp. : --Edmonton Journal, Britain Moved Gold To Other Countries Britain moved virtually its entire gold supply from the British Isley in the greatest gamble in financial history when a German invasion threatened, a Bank of England spokesman said recently, Every type of ship, from tramps to luxury liners, some running through U-Boat infested waters unescorted; carried the gold to sec- ret hiding places in the far parts of the carth, Movements during the entire war from England and South Africa amounted roughly to $4,000,000,000 worth of gold, with losses totaling hardly more than $20,000,000 Some of the lost gold later was recovered after treasure-laden ships sank. One case which the spokes- man called "perhaps the most re- markable salvage job in history" saw Australian divers scrape up from the ocean bed 423 feet down $325,000 worth of a gold cargo valued at $8,000,000 that the ship Niagara was carrying when it went down in the Pacific. Stores of gold were concentrated "in naval bases and other 'strategic spots throughout the world--a tes- timonial that Prime Minister Win- stone Churchill meant what he said when he asserted Britain would fight on even though the home is- lands fell to the Nazis. Huge funds were moved to two North Ameri- can centers, York and Ottawa, Britain To Build 200,000 New Cars A British automobile industry proposal to manufacture 200,000 private cars during the next 12 months has been approved by the British Board of Trade and the Supply Ministry, It was understood that most of the cars will be of small types and half of them will be for overseas export under the agreement by Government agencies, The manufacturers expect to complete 40,000 of the carg by the end of this year, Do not make thing comfort- able for yourself in such a way as to make them uncomfortable for others. i --Chinese Proverb DhoYoukhow? any other fly killerllt ware and General recommend WILSON'S FLY PADS.

It. was the first showing of a series of newsreels of Nazi prison camps which the War Department has ordered all German prisoners to see. As pictures of gaunt, emaciated German captives were flashed on the screen, many of the prisoners shifted uncasily in their seats. As they filed out, many of the Germans were swallowing hard, their lips in tight thin lines. There was no joking, laughing or falking among themselves as when they were going into the theater. China Plans 100,000 Miles Of Railways During the war China has lost most of her railroads. However, she plans to build a railroad sys- tem with 100,000 miles or rails, 20,- 000 of which is to be built within ten yearg after the war. : The Chinese railroad engincers and personnel have been the last to retreat from places taken by the enemy and they are now the first to enter regained areas. They have moved rails by hand over long distances. They have built bridges where it was thought bridges could not be built, They have improvised with never before thought of in rail- road building. But in spite of all this, China is left with less than a tenth of the railroad lines she had before the war, which was approximately 13,000 miles or railroad. Lack of railroad equipment has been the biggest of China's prob- lems since the war began.

Very few of the 1,600 men and women working in the build- ing throughout the war knew the secret of the fourth floor. The existence of the apartment was disclosed when it was learned that the Dowager Queen Mary would use the flat when she re- turns from her country home in another week or so if her own Marlborough House is not ready for her, The King and Queen never used I Easier To Move "Dutch Than Rebuild "It - would be much easier to transport all of Holland's nine million people and re-establish them in America than to re- build the country", Prof. -F., J.

Prof. Rutton is adviser of the Dutch Government and has just arrived in Canada on a special mission. their emergency palace, but the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and the Duchess of Kent used the apartment during the worst of the London blitz.
