Cheap Liquor '_

As Exchange Aid Studied

OTTAWA. Oct. 22.-(CP)—A pro- posal to enable visitors from the United States to take advantage of lower liquor prices as an aid to Canada's foreign exchange situatloni is receiving serious consideration by the Foreign Exchange Control Board. the Canadian Press learned yesterday.

The hoard is canvassing provin- cial liquor authorities on the ques- tion but the matter has not yet reached the stage oi iormal negoti- ation. it was said.

In its essence the proposal is this: That liquor in bond in Canada should be made available without excise and customs duties to bona iicle visitors from the United States. This would reduce the price of the better brands from about $6 to $2 for a 22-ounco bottle,

The liquor so purchased could not be taken out oi bond or consumed in Canada, but might be shippedto purchasers at their homes by ex- press in bond. lt could thenbetak- en out 0i bond by purchasers upon presentation oi the proper creden-

ori Allowed Ono Gallon

United States visitors to Canada are permitted to take back to the United States one wine gallon oi liquor (about (our quarts) without paying duty.

Informed source: said it was not believed United States liquor inter- ests would find such a plan making aiiv great inroads on their revenue because. from their point oi view, the amount oi liquor taken backto the United States by returning tour- ists would be small.

Whatever United States exchange accrued to Canada from the sale cf liquor at these cheap prices would be spent in the United States in any event for purchase of war ml- terials.

As to the amount oi Unit/ed States exchange that might be obtained ii such a plan were put into operation the figures of $l0.000.000 to $15,000.- 000 were suggested speculatively.

Big Balloons 0vcr London No Joke Now

After weeks of day-and-night raiding and many showers oi lead. the balloons are still there. Last year's jokers now respect them as sentinels in silver, a. menace t0 bombers.

The Air Ministry gives them cred- it for doing their job. The 10b l5 to rule out dive-bombing and keep the enemy at a distance. high en- ough for anti-aircraft guns and fighter planes at get at them.

‘They're nothing but big bags oi’ carefully sewed and gummecl Egyp- tion cotton fabric filled with hydro- gen, but Londoners are delighted to dote on their animal ways.

They look like circus elephants. or well-fed gyppies in ii fishbowl. They are stubborn as mules, and in a wind they are as Dlﬂyllll l“

kittens. The Nazis might have called

them silly-looking gas bags in the long months before the battle, but one oi the earliest "all out" raids on this country was aimed at bal- loons alone.

'I'hcy've had their bad moments. A few have been shot down. Some have snapped their cables and gone traipslng over power lines as far off as Finland. Others have snagg- ed enemy planes.

They've had unexpected good moments, too. One balloon was a nice cushion for an airman descend- ing by parachute near Hyde Park. l-le and the balloon were hauled down safely.

Noting that more than B0 per
