can abroad. Today this country maintains 59 posts in 45 different countries and they are staffed by 356 foreign service officers.

In the 1940-41 fiscal year, total

expenditures of the external af- fairs department amounted to 5958.367. The 1956-57 budget is

856.078. Canada now is a mem- ber of almost 70 intergovern- mental organizations and Cana- dian representatives attended more than 30 international confer- ences or meetings during 1955. Canada now maintains abroad I staff of 1.726. including Cana- dian administrative personnel and local staff. compared with :74 in l939. Besides this. there are some 30 Canadian civilians serving on the international truce supervisory commissions in Indochina. EXTERNAL

Of the 59 posts abroad, 83 are embassies. seven offices of high commissioners. four Iegations. ll consulates, two delegations to the United Nations (one at Geneva. the other at New Yorki. one dele- gation to NATO in Paris and one mission in Berlin. ANALYSE EVENTS The key man is service officer who reports and analyzes political events in the country where he is stationed. The external affairs depart- ment has no trouble finding men to do this job. They must be uni- versity graduates and are paid between 83,900 and 313.000 a year depending on experience and cap- abilities. '

But the department has I con- tinuing problem in obtalnl the administrative personnel t staff posts abroad. It has a hard time finding suitable clerks and stenc- graphers willing to serve in trop- ical or out-of-the-way capitals as well as in London. Paris, Home or Washington.

These de rtment members. do not require college degrees. This applies only to foreign service officers.

The lowest-paid Canadian civil- ian working overseas for external affairs makes 83.300 a year. Liv- lit: and rental allowances are paid besides basic salary and these are based on a world-wide cost-of-living index.

VABIED CONDITIONS

Caracas, Venezuela. is the most expensive capital. Its c0st-oi-liv- ing is more "than twice as much as Canada's and I Canadian clerk there is paid 55.000 a year. The living allowance is 32.100. Canberra. Australia, welling- ton. New Zealand and Dublin are rated as the cheapest capitals from the point of view of living

costs.

Posting: to London. Paris and Rome are the most popular in the department. The least attrac- tive include Karachi,, Tel Aviv. and Ankara. mainly because of living conditions.

These are only general views. Canberra. for instance. is unpop- ular with singie women because it is a civil service town where women outnumber men. However, it may be enjyable for a mar- ried man with a family.

Tropical climate Is hard on Canadians abroad. A Canadian serving in New Delhi said re-

cently in a letter home that when his air conditioning unit broke down he felt like a fish thrown up on the beach. LENGTH OF STAY

An external affairs department member serves two to 39': years abroad. depending on'the post. The shorter term applies to trop- icnl capitals. the latter to the U.S. or northwest Europe.

Numerically speaking. the larg- est Canadian post abroad is in London. it has a total staff of 90 including local help and represen- tatives of other government de- partments. The Paris and Wash- ington embassies each have some 60 personnel. Several posts abroad have only two or three staffers.

Many member. of the Canadian staff in Moscow. now numbering about 20. ask for repeat postings there. Freedom of movement. there is considerable compared with what it was and a good deal of travel is permitted.

The department some time ago considered giving up its missions in Warsaw and Prague. Move- ment was so restricted that it was difficult to do a proper reporting

job and living conditions were bad. However, there now is no intention of abandoning these posts.

Language is not a major prob- lem in the department. French. English or German serve in most capitals. Foreign service officers proceeding abroad. however. are expected to acquire some know- ledge of the language of the coun- try where they have been posted even before they leave Ottawa. There are tuition allowances for this purpose. Some officer: he- come experts in foreign Ian- guaizcs.
