A $65,000,- 000 program of western debt cancellation and re- funding, provided for in a bill which hasbeen given third reading by the House of Commons concerns all four western provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba in varying degree.

Under the terms proposed, British Columbia will be able to pay off both principal and interest in instalments of $l,l24,675 annually, whereas previously the in- terest alon-e had cost the province 9,020,000.

About 180 miles south of Nagoya her path crossed that. of the submarine Archerfish, which was under Commander Joseph t‘. Enrlght. It was a o'clock tn the morning and rather dark, and the Shinimo was just about at range limit.

He heard one torpedo explode.
