His statement was in reply to questions by E. D. Fulton (PC- Kamloopst which reflected a new Opposition effort to get facts about the program's delays and frus- trations.

Highlight! of Report

Mr. Howe made these points: I 1. Canada is constantly studying new concepts and designs for more modern fighters but military secur- ity forhids him going further.

2. Once the lt.CA.P'. is up to strength in aircraft, production will be cut to a "small yearly vol- ume” just large enough to meet replacement needs.

3. The structure of the O1"-100 had to be redesigned when prov- Eng flights late in 1951 showed "8 failure in the ring connecting the fuselage to the front spar."

-1. An eight-month delay hit the Orcnda program due to a shortage of steel for completion of the plant. The Mark III CF-100 plane was delayed four to six months. The Mark IV's delivery date will be determined by delivery of the air- io-air rocket woa-pone system to come from the United States. Mr. Howe said the biggest orders yet for CF-100's will go for the i.hird type to be prepared, the Mark IV, because It has been the policy "not to load the R..C.A.1". with the earlier Marks."
