Nova Scotia had been "exception- ally well looked after" in the est- ablishment of training centres. while New Brunswck had been neg- lected, said Mr. I-Iaaen. There were time Nova Scotians in the inlon Cabinet and it was ‘natural’ to assume that province would have its lair share of training establish- merits. .

"there is no Justification. how- ever, for giving it a. share out of all proportion to the population, or the contribution it has made to Canada's war effort," he continued.

"1t was hardly, o! be expected that New . would receive much consideration from the government. as it was rc- prasented in the Cabinet b_y Hon. J. E.

Mr. Haaen said the discrimination against New Brunswick existed else- where. The government had provid- ed capital assistance to Canadian companies totalling 31.723.827.009 of which $821,042,913 was fixed capital. 0f this amount New Brunswick Wlllnanies received fixed capital amounting to about ,0 per cent.

The Knights held a corpor- ate Communion during founders’ week, attended holy hour in a body a number of times and went to the memorial Mass for the deceased of our Order in November. We were also privileged to watch at the vigil on I-Ioly Thursday.
