Thanks to American newspapers for their co- operation in helping to dispel false rumors which hurt US. tourist traffic to Canada was expressed by I\Ir. D. Leo Dolan, chief of the Canadian Traffic Bureau, in reporting in Mont- real a strong recovery in the tourist trade. Mr. Dolau said that a cnuipaign in the United 5tfltfi8 to tell tlie truth about holiday [vossibilitics in Canada, had greatly lii-lpcd to bring about re- covery of a tourist trade which, he declared, had been badly hit by malicious rumors spread among the American people. In speaking of the co-op- oration of United States newspapers, he said: "There has never been a time whcn the gond- will of the U. S. newspapers has done more for us." 1\lr. Dolan said that the hotels he bad vis- ited had reported long lists of American re-

Suggestions came from some speakers ln the wheat debate in te House of Commons recently that somebody, probably the Gov- ernment, should "plan" the future of Canada's wheat-growing Indus- try.
