An Urgent Need

‘Among the problems emphasized by ‘the Minister of Education, Dr. | Dewar, in the Draft Address debate on Tuesday was the need for mak- ing’ greater provision “for vocational education in the province. This has

become a matter of gro concern all over Canada. A glance at what other provinces are doing, as outlin- ed in the current issue of the Fin- ancial Times and briefly summariz- ed here, may help to get the picture in perspective. — ; Newfoundland has built 12 region-

This price decline, however, has already subsided. The Wheat Board has high hopes‘ of achieving export sales of 400 million bushels this year and for two years thereafter. If it can do so, and if the threat of an international price war has been overcome, then the prospects for Prairie wheat would would seem to be better than they
