(From our Own Correspondent.)
OTTAWA. Jan. 28.--'l‘Iio imperial
Munltion Board has Issued at stats-
mcnt explanatory oi' why morn shell
contracts are not coming thc way of
Canadian lnanuhicturers. A vital
reason, it states, is that thcro are
large arrears oi' delivery from present
contracts. “lt is not reasonable to
expect further large orders." asserts
the llonrd, " until part, at any rzttc, of
the arrears on delivery oi' existing
orders has been made up." ’
Dealing _with the orders generally,
the Board point out that in October
last con-tracts aggregating $169,000,000
were passed. Delivery ol' these orders
has not yet commenced except In one
or two cases. It is not to be expected
therefore, that fresh orders would be
given until the old ones were running
out. It is evidently a waste of money,
the Board says. to increase the output
of shell bodies beyond thc capacity lor'
loading and fuse fitting. There are
only two shell loading plants in opera.-
tlon in Canada and one under con-
struction, while there is no fuss lond-
lng plant. at all. The only way In
which Canadian factories could ho
kt-.pt fully employed would he for some
or tho plants now occupied in similar
work to be shut, down. This sugges-
tion has been made by the Imperial
Munition Iloard io the Ministry ol’
Munitions, but it is doubtful whether
it is practicable on account of exist-
ing contracts. As to prices, the Board
says the British Government deliber-
ately sanctioned a high scale of prices
for munitions made in Canada to bring
Canadians into the field. They had
the advantage of these prices for a
year and the Board considers it new
time to get down to a business factory
and to be prepared to meet competi-
tive conditions. s

LONDON, Jan. 28.-Although con-
siderable ilghting has taken place
along the various 'war fronts there
have been no.notabIe changes in the
positions of any of the combatants.
In the region of Neuville St Vaast the
French have attacked with hand gren-
ades the positions taken from them
by the Germans but, according to Ber-
lin, they were repulsed with heavy
losses although the mine crater was
captured by the French. Paris says
two attacks by Germans on the road
between Arras and Lens were put
down and that a German munitions
as blown up near Pulsaleine
by French artillery. All along the line
from Riga to Bukowina there have
been artillery bombardments and in
fantry attacks by Russians and Gor-
. I
f
mans anti Austro-liungarians. Petro-
grad reports a. surprise attack near
Buezacz, Galicia, by Russians in which
a large party of 'l‘eutons were put to
flight after suffering heavy losses and
the capture of three mine craters by
Russians north of Boyan. .
Despatches t'I‘0m Kiev says Aus-
trians and Germans are making great
preparations to stem any"attenip¢_ at
further advance by the Russians in
Galicia. Large quantities of artillery
of all callbres are being rushed to this
quarter. ,
The mutans re-océipled the height
to west of Gorizla, ground they pre-
viously had been forced to retire from
in face of an Austrian attack, and also
put down with heavy loss an attempt
by Austrians to advance in the upper
lsonzo region.
