The final meeting of the Week o! Prayer was held in the Baptist Church and was very largely attend- ed. The pastor, Rev. C. W. Cook conducted the service. A mixed choir from the different. churches with Mrs. Dobson at the organ as- sisted with the service of song. Rev. L.E.G. Davies was the guest speaker and brought comfort and hope to the congregation as in a convincing semen he showed that if we lieve the teachings of Christ. we cannot but. feel certain that He is the answer to the world's need.

Rev. George Ayers was the speak- er on Thursday at the service which was held in the Presbyterian Church.

Already there have been indica- tions from several roggoels that the proposed chm." m n on-pro- vinciel fiscal relations and transfer of powers to the Dominion will meet with opposition.

Under the commission's fiscal plan. the Dominion would assume the entire cost of relief for em- ployable unemployed and take over all provincial debt. In return, the provinces would withdraw from the personal income tax, corporation and inheritance tax fields and izlve up existing subsidies. National nd- justment grants would be made to provinces chronically unable to maintain aver standards of wel- fare and educa cmal services.

According to the rocedure plann- ed by the Prime M Lster, each pm- vlncial Premier will be asked to present the views of his government.

These proceedings will be in pub- lic and will be followed by s dis- cussion on whether the remainder of the conference will be open to

press.

Premier Hepburn of Ontario has stated publicly that he is stronILV in favor of opening all deliberations to the press and it. is understood the federal government is Wllllm to sooept whatever i1 the gene will of the conference.

An Italian officer captured near Klisun. was reported as saying the "Italians are in a most critical sit- uation as a result of the break in their lines at this key point."

‘me Greeks continued to clean up isolated Italian detachments in the Klisura area while others fought a- round Tepeleni. In the coastal sec- tm’. the Greeks made further ad- vances toward Valona despite des- perate Fascist resistance, it was said.

The government spokesman gave this picture of the fighting:-

“Despito difficulties of terrain and other difficulties governing opera- tions tn Albania, our units confin- ued their attacks successfully and threw back the enemy from ford- fied positions which he was hold- ing after extremely rapid action which took the Italians by surprise".
