some years ago the Chief Conl- missioner of Canada, while at an International Girl Guide gather- ing in the United Btatcs, was very interested in the International
Camp for Guides which was held I: the same time. The Guides who
were camping there were seeing idiot; sister Guides from other
a . milling on how they live. hearing about their 0 and about their countries. that this meeting together at Guides from other plaou out in the ovenslrincampheld more of the true spirit of the sisterhood of Guiding than anything else could. Ever since then. the Girl Guides of dcanada have been hinting an planning for a large Camp of their own to bring to- gather girls from all over Canada. While campins is part or the ob- iect oi the National Camp which will be held at Connaught Ranges, Ottawa. from Jilly 11th to Ilth of this year and it will be conducted as a true Guide Camp, the main emphasis and the theme of the fuamp will be our "Canadian Heri-
e".
The learning of citiunship is one of the chief tenets of Guiding but this summe the girls will learn about citizenship as Canad- ians. not as Newfoundlanders or British columblans. They lwill learn to know eachrother. Every day there will be sjioms Town Gossip Forum when they will talk about life in their own towns. Ev- ery Guide will be taken on an all- day sight-seeing tour of Ottawa and will also have one day in town to explore the Capital for herself. ,
The Guides wul camp in groups of twenty-ilve. Each group will have the name of a Canadian riv- er. a lake. A mountain or a Na- tional Park. The program will contain Canadian Ionll and dan- ces, as well as simple drsmsties on a Canadian theme. The skills
be built around heritage.
The girls who will attend this Camp-(and there will be twelve from Prince Edward Island privil- eged to attend it)-will be out- standing membe of Guide Com- panies throughout Canada. They will carry back the responsibility of giving the knowledge they have acquired at camp to their own. Guides and their communities.

"House Builders May Cut Profits For Ready Sales
UITAWA. May Id - (CP) - Canada's house builders are still searching for high profits but they are show a readiness to sacri- fice part o them for bigger sales and increased government loans. the Commons banking committee was told.
D. B. Mansur. head of the Cent- ral Mortgage and Housing Cor- poration. said the response to the C. M. H. C. offer to increase bl.iilders' loans in return for a fix- ed sale price is "satisfactory"
Between October. 1961. and April 1. W52. the corporation had re- ceived 3.0i8 requests to shift. loans to higher levels in return for a selling price'on the house fixed by the corporation.
"This would tend to show that the builders had adjusted their sights as to the amount of profit they were willing us accept in re- turn for ready sales." he said.
Dealing with mother aspect of construction financing. Mr. Man- sur indicated that the C. M. if. C. and Canada's commercial lending institutions do not see eye-to-eye on mortgage-loan policy
He said the short amortization period is the "holy cow" of. the lending institutions They were more interested in protecting their loans than in maintaining a "flexible and progressive policy."
Lending institutions did not want to make mortgage loans running for more than 20 years. The C. M. H. C. made loans up to Ill years depending on the borrow- er's ability to repay.
But there was a limit on the amount or money the C. M. H. C had available for lending purposes. if lending institutions would broaden their policies. he added in an interview. the amount. of house-
building in Canada might. in- crease. r
Turning to the question of builders' loans. Mr. Mansur said
at one point: "There are except- ions but most builders are inter- oeted in obtaining as large a prof- it on each house as possible."

legion Would Keep Meyer In Prison For Life
By Douglas Ilrrw
MONTREAL. May 26 -(0'P)- After a debate hot and unhappy with memories of the battlefield. the Canadian I..egion's national convention called on the govern- ment to keop' Kurt Meyer in prison for life. it narrowly rejected a proposal that he be returned to a Canadian prison from Germany.
During the argument, one man who had buried the victims of Meyer's troops' atrocities cried out
against any suggestion that the former German 5.5. should be sCICI8Gd.
Earlier, a man made prisoner a Dieboe took the opposite view.
The viewaranged between those' extremes after the chairman said the Legion has been informed by Defence Minister Clsxion that the government has no intention of dealing with Meyer's sentence "at this time."
He said Mr. Clsxton made the statement in s. letter-written in January or February-adding that Canada still has ultimate control
of the man serving life for respon- ,
sihility for the shooting of 16 Can- ntlinn prisoners in Normandy in 1944. The resolution was based on the belief that the government is mov- ing toward Meyer's release. Its
preamble said so.
when it came to a vote. the sup- port was heavily in favor or the ruolutlon. some shouted disap- proval but not many.
The convention, in the fourth or five days. also:
i. Elected Dr. C.l. Lumsden, M. M. 6'1. Bible-teaching professor at Acadia University. Woifvilie. N.B.. to be president. Another clergyman Dean .l.O. Anderson of Winnipeg lot the No.2job as first vice- president.
2. Heard Mai.-Gen. r.r. Worth- ington, civil defence co-ordinator, say Canada will have 160,000 train-
ed civii defence volunteers by March. 1063, triple the pruem number.
3. Unsnimoulsy endorsed a.nm. tion by retiring president Group. Capt. Alfred watts of Vancouver laying the press has a right to write what it. wants. This followed statements by relatively few mom. has attacking articles and head- lines in the Montreal Herald.
