Following the announcement recently by the ra- tion administration of the Prices Board that 100,000,000 poundspf sugar would be available in Canada this year for home canning it is an- nounced the coupons required to be used when purchasing sugar for home canning in the pro- “vince will be distributed by the local ration boards. Distribution will be made by June I. Applications for canning sugar were forward- ed to the local ration boards throughout Canada last month. Ration officials announced recent- iy that a tabulation of reiums from these ap- plications revealed that a. grand total of 209,995.- 368 pounds of sugar for home canning, pre- serving and making jams and jellies had been applied for. It was necessary to reduce this quantity about one-half or approximately the same amount as was used by housewives for

liomc canning last year. i

For the first time since the war began, Great Britain now has more German prisoners than there are British prisoners in Nazi hands, a fact that may have considerable bearing upon the prisoners in German camps. Last Octo- ber, when the German Command ordered the sliaclding of prisoners, the Nazis held about 80,000 Britons, compared with 23,000 Germans in British camps. The British and Americans together have captured more than 150,000 in Tunisia. Italy has about 70,000 British prison- crs, but the British now have some 300,000 Ita- lian prisoners, not counting native troops cap- tured while serving under Italian colors. Thus ilic Axis holds about 160,000 British prisoners, compared with 450,000 German and Italian cap- tivcs.

It will be recalled tlic powers-iliat-be at O!- iawa decided to remove the H.M.C.S. Bruns- wicker, ilic navy training centre, from Saint _l0hn, N.B. An agitation was immediately start- ed in opposition to this move, headed by the Con- servativc M.P.'s for the city, and strongly back- cd by the Telegraph-journal. The result was ihe Federal Government took back water, and not only reversed their decision, but decided to crcct new and greatly improved headquarters to take the place of those now in use. Work of constructing the Canadian naval base on Britain Street will begin “almost immediately," the Ot- tawa correspondent of the Telegraph-Journal was informed at the Federal ‘capital by Naval bliiiisicr Macdonald. The contract has been let —the name of the contracting firm was not an- nounccd-construction will proceed under the supervision of the department of munitions and supply, and the total cost of operations will be about $346,000, Mr. Macdonald stated. Then work will be started on a naval barracks, the statement said. The building on the Britain Siicet site will, it is believed, house all of the ZNIIIIIIIISIFZIIIVC offices, sleeping quarters, sick hay and otlicr facilities of the regular naval per-

This is aporoprlabe enough at a _ time when the country's ﬁrst cIIl- i zen. Mr. Churchill, holds what Is l probably a world's record for thei number and variety of his head- ' gear. As far back as 1929 someone drew up a list. of coverings whlch had had the honor of graclntz the Churchill head.
