l)'I'rAWA. (GP)-C. E. Johnston lsC"BOw River) said Monday in lhP Commons the Canadian coal illrlllslfy is "going to be ruined" lirllcss something is done soon.

The government had spent :50.- i:rl0,000 in the last five years to '-llbsldlzb the gold industry while coal miners were being squeezed cur nf their jobs because there U13 no national coal policy.

rmiarla had produced 17,360,000 wins or cool last. year. at the same 'llTie importing 24,178,000 tona from the United States.

Alberta coal production was as- iilmtcd at 6,262,000 tons this year. hut the industry in that province rllllld produce almost 10,000,000 inn: with present facilities.

It the. government wanted to save the coal industry, markets nivict he found in central Canada. sales of 3,000,000 more tons a year ll (ieiimil Canada would stabilize the industry and 4.000.000 more ions would put it back on its feet.

Ontario and Quebec would bene- .':t from. an all-Canadian gas pipe l:ne. It would have to be sub- xdized. Thus Nova Scotia would be nskcd to subsidize cheap gas for Central Canada while its coal min- PT! were unemployed because of lack of a government policy on coal.

Mr. Johnston said it was the tihcight of folly" to allow the coal industry to go bankrupt. Produc- tion this year would fall to its '.o'.vcsi. amount since 1041. There was a "crying need" for a policy to meet "thls serious national

To Spend More Money The provincial delegates and representatives of tron-rportsizlon

companies reported they plan to spend more money in 1954 on tour- ist promotion. particularly in the United States. They warned that Canada facs increased competit- ion for the American tourist dol- lar, especially from Mexico.

"We can't increase tourist traf- fic with the tools we have been using for the last few years.” said D. Leo Dolan. director of the travel bureau. "The United States is Canada's best tourist market and we need more promotionarid advertising to attract Americans."

Mr. Dolan said the bureau's ad- vertising and promotion budget in 1954 will be spent on newspaper and magazine advertising, films, booklets and pamphlets. There would be no paid radio or tele- vision adverlising. but films on Canadian travel would be submit- ted to TV stations.

Mr. Dolan said a l.'l-week radio program used on the CBC last spring and winter to encourage Canadians to visit. their national parks instead of the United States was not fruitful.
