Big Export Trade Forecast For Canada

OTTAWA, Dec. 27 -(CP)—Can:-1da should expect the greatest export business with the United Kingdom during 1940 of any year in its his- wry, government experts who have returned from thftrade mission in London told 'l‘he Canadian Press tonight.

1n addition to the war orders which the experts declined to dis- cuss further than to say they were being planned oil all extensive scale. Great Britain is depending on Can- ada to supply mucll of its food supplies and its metal requirements.

Wheat, cheese, bacon and lumber are four commodities for which the United Kingdom will draw largely from Canada. Under the new agree- ment Canada will supply bacon in a weekly export far exceeding any other year.‘

No defmitc arrangement was made about cheese becaue the season is over in Canada and it was decided it would be better to rriakc any a- greement next March before the 1940 season opens. It appears cer- tain however that the United King-

lizet of the serious illness of Mss uriel Harding. French River, wish Muriel a lrleedy recovery frcm her bed of illness.

Mr. Robert Bowen. who has been employed in Summersiiie during the summer months hrs returned to his home ‘n Kenslngton for a short but well earned holiday.

Well fronds. we have good news for you all, the latest reports are to the effect that the ice-makers 111

dom will take all the cheese Canada can produce,

Lumber Included

With the Baltic lumber supplies cut off, Great Britain is in need of lumber and will take all available in Eastern Canada and the ship- ments from the Pacific coast will be limited only by transportation facilities.

Canned salmon, camped fruit and canned tomatoes will move forward from Canada in quantities at least equal to normal years. There is a good demand ior eggs but Canada will find competition with eggs from the continent both in quality and price.

The dried fruit control board set up in the United Kingdom was favorably impressed with the sam- pies of dehydrated a-pples sent over from Nova Scotia. It. expressed it- self as willing to buy extensively if the quality could be maintained.

On the other hand there will be reductions in Many Canadian ex- ports. No live cattle will go over. Canada normally sells Britain about $2,000,000 worth of automobiles. Th1", will be wiped out, entirely. “You couldn't sell them if you could get them in," one expert said.

As previously announced Canad- ian hcney will he auowed to enter Great Britain and 8.000.000 pounds of tobacco, Britain had decided to ban tobacco altogether relying on its large suprply already on hand to carry it through but the mission was able to have the ban partially 1ifted_

Fsh Demand Uncertain

The demand tor fish is rather un- certain but m-enl‘ ers of the mission expected an increased demand would be developed. At present fish 1-; readily available 1n the Kingdom.

It was taken for granted here that Moslem troops would be followed later by other contingents. In the first great war Indian troops saw. service on the western front as well as in East Africa, the Persian Gulf and Etizvnt.

The Indian troops brought with them hundreds of mules. This led one British military commentator to write that "machines may have

replaced horses but tile illLlil reiauis his Illdl-SDCILSIIJIIILY . Whatever the circumstances. no war or mili- tary operation can be coilductcd safely without him.’

Mrs. Buckley pleaded not guilty and her acquittal came after Royal Canadian Mounted Police infonn. cd the court the prosecution yvas not pressing for a conviction.

Only witness was R. C, M. P. Constable H. C. McGuire who read a letter written by Mrs. Buckley

to Mrs. H. A. Frame, Tulsa, Okla,

Magistrate Barnhil] said he had

know "everything going on in Halifax," such as the time of de-

,p:1.-,~ture of ocean-going vessels.

However, lle said there was no intention of punishing the de- fendent or making a “scapegoatw of her. But the purpose of the trial was to stop people from writ- iniz letters containing information which might be valuable to the enemy.
