Expect Important Announcement 0n Seaway Project

OTTAWA. oche --(AP) -—Im- portant government announcements having to do with St. Lalvre-llte Riv- er power development, appoint- mcntsnmd a. pohcyd-cslguco to ails-c the wartime ilouslllg siloringe in certain localities are looked for dur- ing the coming week.

A government spokesman told Tile Canadian Press Saturday that.

the Canadian and United States government on St. Lawrence Riv- ers power developments are expect- ed to reach the stage in a hatter of days where an oiilclai announce- ment can be made.

It probably will be forthcoming late in the week.

The belief has been expressed here that the objective is that Canada and the United States de- velop jointly the water-power" rc- sources ln the International rop- lds section of the St. Lawrence riv- er near Cornwall, Oilt.. and to per- mit certain diversions of water lll- to fake Superior from the Long Lac and Ogoki River watershed in

Q, northwestern Ontario.

Meantime the llovemment, is working on suggested measures for relieving the shortage of living accceilmodation created by colleen- tratiorls of population in certain areas by establishment of huge war industries.

The understanding here was that one proposal considered ls the pro- vlding of low-cost hotlsing ln the form of pre-fabricaied dwellings built on a mass production basis and to be sold on easy terms.

Any appointments announced might include new senators for tilrce vacancies in the upper cham- bcr.

corral": ll. S. Will Call Naval Reserves

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6—(CP)—— The United States navy, beiu! swelled almost weotly by new ships coming from the ways, will be brought up to the necessary strength in manpower through the calling out of-rescrves.

The Navy Secretary, Knox, issued an order that will placo 27,591

Frank Saturday navy and

of the staff 0f the tele- nllarine reservists in uniform and increase to 230.281 the number of I

officers and mcn on active duty. Tile order applied to the entire organizcd naval and marine corps reserves. It was described as in line with the policy under which recently the National Guard was summoned for a year's duty.

Knox issued the order after alarming the Rome-Beriill-Tokyo alliance Saturday in a speech that. “if a fight is forced upon us we shall be ready."

A navy spokesman said the call for the reserves was necessary be- cause the fleet-construction pro- gram is five weeks to six months ails-ad of schedule.

Silortly before he issued his order, Knox said that the Japa- nese-Gcrnlan-Itaiian alliance "is

directed at us," and that the Uni- led States will not be intimidated. His remarks were interpreted as a TPDiy by the United States Gov- emmeiii i0 Friday's assertion by Prince Konoyc, Japanese Premier, that ally challenge of the 5x13 would tumble the United stages into a “fight to o finish."

“We arc the largest obstacle in the hath of the totillitarlan powers," Knox said. "Should Great, arltuin fail to stem the tide of ever-ad. filming tyranny. we shall find ourselves surrounded of these in- ternational hrigands. whose great.

“The little ones couldn't: stand the exposure. . neither could most of the adults,” Mr. Forsythe added.

He was just entering his cabin on the City of Benarcs about 10 p.m. on the night of Sept. 1'i when there was a terrific explosion. "The cabin practically disintegrat- ed before my eyes," he related.

Mr. Forsythe ran on deck. ‘The calm of the passengers was amaz- ing," he said. The ship's officers were truly wonderful."

People were at the boats. ‘The ship remained on an even keel for a few minutes, then started dip- ping by the stern.

"It was ilorrlbic. but that was ull we could do." he sold.

"It was impossible to provldc any physical comforts - for the children. They were numbed with cold. We tried to keep four of them warm with blankets. They lived until a destroyer came to our rescue (about 20 hours after the torpedoing), but two of them died
