Canadian Banks To Carry Unsold Balance Of Crop

(Special to The Guardian)

TORONTO. Ont... Aug. 6—The statement that the Canadian banks had promised to carry the, unsold balance of the 1029 wheatcrop, and that the arrangements were entire- ly satisfacwfy- was made by Prem- ier John Bracken of Manitoba, at the taonclusion of the conference to- day between eight managers of lead- ing banks and the three Premiers of Manitoba, Alberta and.

Since the guarantees of the three Prairie Provinces to the bank-s i0!‘ subsidizing the wheat. p001 naked an Augilst 1st, Premier Bracken was asked whether the Western Provin- ces would Main renew the WEN-fl- tee; to the banks. There has been no request made for guarantees on the new crophlndltlis not anticl- patsd that guarantees will be re- quired, he replied.‘ The guarantees were to cover the whole crop. he ex- plained and the only dlmculty arose through a small portion of it not hav ing been delivered at the end of the crop year, July 31st. It is concern- ing that portion that we have been having conferences with the Banks.

Combined Flight Ove r Ottawa And To r0 nlto

ST. l-ItTBER-T AIRPORT. Montreal Que, Aug. S-The dlrlgible R-l00 will make a combined flight over Ottawa and Tbronto, the date to be announced in the near future, ac- cording to- an ofllclal statement 1s- sued here thls morning. The state- ment reads: Repairs to the 11-100 areproceeding satisfactorily and 1t is expected they will be completed within the next forty-eight hours. In the meantime there has been no alteration of plans as announced in the omcial press statement issued on August/itlm, which read in part: Tho idea of a flight over Canadian territory before the return journey has not been abandoned. However. it is hoped to combine the flight to Ottawa and ‘Toronto into one and carry that out if reasonably favor- able weather conditions Should oc- cur for the flight prior to the de- parture of the ship for Enzlend.

Today's statement clears up much uncertainty regarding the program of the 3-100. Originally, it had been planned to make three separate Ca- nadian nights over Ottawa, Toron- to and Quebec.
