Immigration To The U. K. ls Suggested

by mail and saw each other for the first time last week.

(By The Canadian Prell) LONDON. Jan. 17—While more than 300,000 Britons await trans- portation to now homes in the Dominiono the Times of London and the weekly National News- letter have urged that the Gov- ernment consider the advisabil- ity of starting a program of im- migration to the United Kingdom as the answer to the acute man- power problem. “The case for a selective im- migrutioh of up to 500.000 foreign workers during the next few years

is exceedingly strong." a Times editorial said. “We think the Government

would be abundantly justified in arranging for immigration at once of not less than 250.000 foreign- crs," said the National Newslet- tor, published by Gmdr. Stephen King Hull.

"As n. footnote to this plan we hasten to acid that we would warmly support any proposals (such as an assisted passage scheme) for enabling any of the Dominlons, who wish to throw in their lot with those island-S. l0 migrate."

The influential Liberal news- paper Manchester Guardian avoid- ed the word "immigration" but Commented nn the coal mine la- bor shortaec: “Tilcrc will not be enough suitable men among Poles in t-hls country-indeed there are said to be only 170 experienced miners who can be employed at. once. We must therefore recruit. other labor from Eurol>9~~9 sinrt should be made quickly." The newspaper comments came one day after the national mine- workers’ union. followlmf a year's consideration. announced its wil- lingness in tolerate the employ- mgnt of polish lnbnr in British mines. Master cotton spinners and other industrialists also are talking of an influx of foreign workers. Farmers must relv rm German prisoners of war for l! large proportion of their labor.

THREE PROVINCES REACH TAXATION AGREEMENT

Premier Dff To Cardinal Vi

But Details Are Dloaked In Secrecy

By WARCY UDONNELL

O'1'I‘AWA, Jan. 1'7 - (C?) —- New Brunswick. Manitoba and Saskatchewan tomy concluded tho Jfinegbtiation of taxation agree- [ments with the Dominion. but tho ‘details of the new Bmeemento were tcioaked in secrecy.

It is know-n that the Dominion put forward a formula aimed at: equalizing the stlbsidleg the Fed- eral Government proposes to pay the various provinces for almost exclusive use of such major tax fields as personal income, corpora- tion. and succession duties.

The details of that formula, a key point in the renegotiation discus- sions. probably will not be made public before next week. However, the progress made in the discus- sions indicated that it fulfilled de- mands for equalization of $15 per capita subsidies offered New Bruns- wick, Manitoba and Saskatchewan with the $21 subsidies offered Brit- ish Coltunbia and Prince Edward Island.

The discussions ended in atmos- phere o; almost Etneral optimism. Hon. Clarence Fines. provincial treasurer for Saskatchewan. pre- dicted that by the end of the month seven if not, all nine provinces will have signed new taxation agree- ments with the Dominion. Finance Minister Abbott laid. "most satisfactory progresg had. been made." The three province: were to report the rwult of the dis- cussions to their respective cabin- ets "without delay."

At the conclusion o! the meet- ings, Premier Garson issued a brief statement in which he said.
