(OP)- Canada's two top labor bodies urged the sown- mcnt Tuesday to help relieve Can- ada's housing shortage through a drastic cut in mortaga interest rales for low-income families. The 580,000-member Trades and Labor Congress in a. submission to the Commons banking committee proposed that the rate be cut to 3 1.4 per cent - equivalent to the government's cost of borrow- ing money. The current rate in ii 1-4 per rent and under the new homing legislation is likely to rise to 5 1-2 or 5 3-4 per cent.

B., where some 690 men have been laid off in the last few months, he said. The ports of Saint John and Halifax faced "a bad situation." Shipments at Saint John were down 35 per cent over last year. Blames Trade Paths Mr. Brooks said this results from 60 per cent of Canada's trade taking a north-south path to anti from the United States. instead of an east-west direction overseas through east coast ports. The economy of the country had been built on east.-west trade. Overseas exports were down due to high production costs, some of them based on high taxes. He suggested that perhaps Can- ada should base its economy on the production of raw materials. Lack of east-west trade move- ments and lower Maritimes car- loadlngs forced the rail compan- ies to lay all large numbers of men in Moncton and Macadam. N. B.
