Two New Armouries Planned For P. E. I.

GITAWA. March 12 - (Special) —-Georse McIlr-aith, Parliamentary alllltant to Reconstruction Minis- ter Clarence Howe. today told The Guardian that among the bulld- in; projects planned for every province are new Arrnories, put up on the basis of accommodating slnlzle units.

They will cost around $330000 each, and construction will get underway as coon as something has been clone about ths‘crls‘.a in residential housing. '

The Defence Department through the office of the engineer officer of‘ the master general of the ord- trance said that initial plans for Prince Edward Island call for con- struction oi new Armories, one in

Charlottetown and the other in Bumrnerside. “The proposal is," related Mr.

Mcilralth “that where-congestion oi military units has resulted, the oldest regiments be given use of the old time large scale armorles. and new buildings, on a more mod- est and more modern scale. be connructed for the newer units or any other formations to take lhhpg in the organization at the permanent peace time army."

A Prices Board official said that the Marltimea had KPOWX! llttl! more than enough to fill their own immediate provincial requirements‘ last year.

"Rather than ship Maritime po- tatoes to the Central Provinces and then have to import supplies for ‘the Marltimea themselves, he reported. “the Board ls bringing in potatoes for Ontario from Ameri- can producers." = .

The potato shortage in Ontario. and in the federal capital 8P0! 0f the Ottawa alley is acute.

Women are starting to line up for them at the doors of grocery stores in the morning. something the same, but not to ouch an ex- aggerated degree as these lined up two weeks ago for nylons stock- lngs.
