Estimates For

, Continued from page I

agreement: had not,been enactedx

Defence estimates this year were placed at s2.000,795.000. a decrease of 5930.000. But another 5250.000,- 000 available in a special fund from past appropriations will also be used. That fllnd has been built up as a result of shipments of arms to Europe.

For each shipment of arms taken, say. from llrmy stocks, the army was credited with sums equivalent to the replacement value of the equipment. The sums now will be used for the replacements.

Expenditures on defence pro- duction are expected to drop to 873,354,934 from sl23.452.992 as a result of a tapering-off of capital assistance for defence industry.

Approximately half ofg the de- fence expenditures will be on the R.C.A.F. Nearly half the air force total in turn will go for hundreds of jet fighters and cnglnes.,whlch Will come into use roughly twice as fast as in the current year. The navy. too. will bring its re- armament to a. crest by spending 592,000,000 on new warships.

The plans are to spend 5986.000.- 000 on the R.C.A,F. with a whop- ping 51.20.000.000 going for air- craft snd engines. ,signalling the crest of the drive to create a crack fighter force at home and abroad. The total. for planes and engines was almost double that for ti? current year. '

)Non-Defence Bill Up

Non-defence expenditures in the new year are estimated at 02.324.-

000. an increase of 090,000,000.

With old-age security payments included. the government wui pay out 34.749.892.236 in 1953-54 com- pared with 84.097.737.187. an in- crease of 552,155,049.

The Canadian Government's ex- penditures amounted to 558,003,098 in 1939, the first year before the Second World War. They rose to an' all-time peak of 85.322.258.505 during-the war. They dropped to a. post-war low of 82.190.777.192 in 1947-48. Since, then the ex- penditures have been rising stead-

y. The defence estimates were about one per cent lower than those for the current year. How- ever. the' government expects to fall more than :200.000,000 short of spending the defence money earmarked for this year.

The estimates for the first two years of Canada's three-year de- fence program have proved to be about 8400.000.000 too high. They could be high again.

The original estimate for the program outlined by defence Min- ister. Claxton Feb. 5, 1951. was 85.- 000.000.000 over three years. : To- day's figures indicate the actual spending should be around 05.- 200,000,000. The advance estimates for those ssune three years ran around s400,000.000 beyond that.

some of the things the program was supposed to do in those years - such as completing seven anti- submsrine veuele - won't be done on schedule. But others - such as forming and sending the

Several ' Plans Open To Government In Rail Strike Crisis

OTTAWA. Jan. 28 I-(CP) -Sev- eral possible alternatives face the government as it wrutlcs with the problem of stavlng of! s rallgstrike net for Monday morning.

The cabinet disposed of one to- day in a successful appeal by Labor Minister Gregg to the disputants to get together in s. fourths round of negotiations. ' .

While there has been no indicat- ion of what further action the Minlstersmight take in the event of one more collapse of union- cdmpany talks gt Montreal. the courses open to them include:

1. Appealing to the union to put off the strike date while new tries at settlement are made. 3

2. sending a mediator to deal with the disputants at Mont- 1'eal..

3. Asking spokesmen for the railways and the Brotherhood

' of Railroad Trainmen to come to Ottawa for conferences with

Labor Department conciliation

specialists and possibly with

the cabinet itself.

4. Indicating to the govern- ment-owned Canadian Nation- al Railways compromise settle- ment terms that might be ac- ceptable to the union. The other railways would almost inevitably have to follow any such lead.

5. Preparing no-strike lnw.' All of these methods were used

at one time ior another in the strike-threatened 1948 dispute and in the 1950 fight that resulted eventually in a nine-day strike of

non-operating elnployeu.

In the 1948 dispute. the settle- ment terms of e. 10-cents-an-hour wags incruss were dictated to the C.N.R. by the government. and the other lines had to follow suit.

In 1950, strike-ending legislation passed by Parliament in emergency session ended the tic-up. It pro-

vided for compulsory arbitration Ice 241. L Lmkmm. vs. L. H. of'I'tll11i!.,:erllel2;lelal..e ran through the MacF”lane'

This time. if all forms of volunt- ary settlement fail. the government has a stronger weapon in its hands for fast action than it had in 1950. That is the Emergency Powers Act of March. 1951.

Under this bill, cabinet may by order-in-council do whatever it considers advisable for the "secur- ity. defence. peace. order and Wei- fare" of Canada on various matters including:

"Transportation by land. air or water and the control of the trans- port of persons and things." .

The act. which declares a state of international emergency exists. evidently empowers the govern- ment to take any measuras it sees fit to keep the trains running.

Parliament now is in session. should the government want to put legislation through the Houses rather than use the order-in-courn cil method. However. the Senate is not due to reconvene from the Christmas recess until Tuesday

night.

Declares Key To Peace Lies In Hearts Of People

NEW YORK, Jan. 28 -- (AP) - Paul-Emiie Cardinal Leger. arch- bishop of Montreal. said today the key to peace lies in the hearts of the people everywhere.

En route home from Rome where he was elevated to the cardinalate last week. Cardinal Leger told reporters aboard the liner United States which docked this morning from Le Havre that ”there is no point in trying for peace in the world unless there is peace in the heart of every man."

The 48-year-old Cardinal, ap- pearing fit and well-rested. said he is looking forwaitd eagerly to returning to Montreal after his two-month visit to Rome.

Cardinal Leger was welcomed on shipboard in New York by Ro- mlm Catholic religious and lay of- ficials who came from Montreal to meet him. He posed for about 30 minutes for photographers in- cluding a. CBC television camera- man.

He ttold newspaper men in

interview. speaking about ll'ol-algltended the funeral of Mr, Baker's Iaunt. the late Mrs. B. J." Raynon,

"It is always critical for men of goodwill to try to work for God." he said. i

The Cardinal lunched with Francis Cardinal Spellman. arch- bishop of New York.

Later he attended a receptioni for the Canadian visitors at thel monastery of the Fathers of the'
