The December meeting of the Women's Music club was held last evening at the Baptist Church Hull. The program was composed of carols sung by Zion Church Junior Choir under the direction of Miss Rena Wood, with readings and continuit by Mrs. Arthur Roper. The c idren presented a charming appearance in their black and white stirplices against the background of brightly trim- med Christmas trees. Their well modulated voices were listened to with real appreciation by those present. The finely balanced pro- gram reflects great credit upon Miss Wood and Mrs. Roper.

TORONTO, Dec. 1'7—(OP)—J. A. D. McCurcly, first man to fly nit airphine in Catiitda. said today t-hc efforts of the Royal Canadian Air Force "have far exceeded expect-a- tions of even those acquainted with the superior fighting croft, training and personnel 0f the air force."

"It is difficult, at times, to real- ize that 10,000 young lads arc pro- viding the whole front-line de- fence of the British Empire." he said.

McCurdy who has given up bus- iness activities in the aviation pro- duction division of the federal dc- part-ment of Munitions and Sup- plies, is in Torolitoto tiddrrs oTor- onto flying club dlitrer.

Meanwhile, as the intensive new drive for greater arm- ament efforts got Into IulI swing, Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox announced the award o! contracts for 40 ad- ditional destroyers costing ap- pro "mately $253,384,874 and for an expansion of shipbuilding facilities at un estimated cost of $8,300,000.

As amove to expedite construc- tion in certain cases and achieve similarity oi" design, the navy also announced that contracts for seven destroyers and two cruisers prt viously announced litid been cancelled and transferred to other yards.

Earlier, secretary of State Cor- dell HLlll disclosed that he is coun- selling defence commissioners and other officials to greater effort in sticctling up production and it was lz-aritrd his advice was based on predictions of high American and British officials that a crucial phase of the war would come in the next three or four months. Although convoy protection for supply ships was held in some quarters to be of equal impor- tuncc, there appeared to be no \\'itli‘5])l‘€£ld support within the ad- ministration for the United States m ksllppiy naval forces for this tits '.

Not ruled out, however, was the possibility that more destroyers such as the 50 transferred to Bri- tttitt lost summer might. be re- lcrtscd. 4

The outright acquisition of Bri- tish territorial possessions in the tvcstern hemisphere in exchange for war supplies to ease Britain's financial situation has been ad- vacated in some congressional quartets.

Reliable Senate sources under- stood, however. that British offi- cials informally have expressed objection to the proposals on the grottud tlmt the British Govern- ment has no “moral right" to bar- tci" the lands and populations of the possessions.

The secretary to the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, was reported, to have told a. House of Represen- tatives Appropriations Committee that Sir Frederick Phillips, under- secretary of the British treasury had informed him that Britain could tnake no more commitments for purchase of’ war materials in the United States unless financial aid was extended.

He declined to confinn a report that. he had sent word to the National Association of Manufac- turers that Britain could hold out inoi"e than 90 days only if addi- tional Amerlcnn aid is forthcom- ing immediately.
