OTTAWA. Aug. 21 —(CP) -- Lasge-ocalo aerial transfers of ‘European displaced persons to Canada are going to be undertaken by the Dominion Government this fall, Reconstruction Minister Howe said today on ‘his return from a four-week vl-slt to Europe.

In o. pro-dawn interview aboard an airplane as he fie-w from Mont- real to Ottawa on the last lap of a trams-Atlantic flight, Mr. Holwe told the Canadian Press the flying lm- tmlgratlon project was expected to be launched soqu after the end of September.

When the scheme gets into full swing, the Minister declared, be- tween 2,500 and 3,000 persons from Europe's “D. P." camps would be landing in Canada monthly, and it was expected the Plederal Govern- ment would assume responsibility for the tranqiortlng of all such persons to the Dominion.

The new movement would be touched off when Trans-Canada Air Lines received delivery of 20 large new planes for its trans-At- latntlc service, due lsfe in Septem- ber. The 40-p1ssenger machines with prfssuulztld cabins will more than triple the T.C.A.'s trans- ocean capacity,

Mr. Howe said that in picking up displaced persons, the Government planned to have the planes go right to the continent and fly the immigrants direct to Canada.

“I think they will be able to get them over just as fast. as by ship," he said.

At the same time, he declared he

had been making efforts in Brit- ain to obtain more shipping space for the transporting of immigrants of all kinds to Canada, and he was hopeful that the accommodations would be enlarged.

During hi5 Lrip, which took in England. Ireland and ' parts of Germany, Mil‘. I-ialwe visited several displaced persons camps. and he said the Canadian machinery in Europe for the handling of these prospective citizens was being ex-

Applications from Romania, Bul- ‘ garla and Hungary also were re- i jecled through failure to get tlie necessary seven votes which must include those of all the Big Five, in the Security Council. Only i Syria supported the three and no l veto was involved.

Herschel V. Johnson, United States deputy leader, branded the latest Russian actions “an abuse of the veto power." Within the last three days Gromyko also has killed membership applications from Ireland, Portugal and Trans- jorclaii and nullified two majority Council decisions for settling dis- turbances in the Balkans.

The vote on Italy and Austria came on an Australian resolution which noted that the peace treat- ies for the two had not yet come into force but would have given the 55-power General Assembly
