Its duties would include exam- ination of the feasibility of estab- lishing unemployed veterans in communities, giving them small holdings to work. after a fashion of the various ex-service men's villages in the United Kingdom. The on would also set. in motion the machinery to this end.

Health, declared the govcmment had not yet. decided whether the report would be referred to a spe- cial committee. He would give a definite answer tomorrow.

If gold-mining operations were carried on extensively veterans might be employed in clearing land and in surface work. The work of authorised reforestation by the provincial governments and pulp and paper companies, says the report, might be suitable for many ex-service men. It was also suggested that radio license col- lectors might be appointed from the lists of partially disabled vet- erans. since this was part-time work they could perform suitably.

lllstablishmeiit of a corps of wmmlssionsires in the principal cities of Canada, along lines of similar organizations in the United Kingdom, should be considered by the proposed commission.
