W h i io students throughout
Canada are enjoying their suM-

Ceenneullicatielle 'Khoo). the
Only one of its kind in Canada
—.operated by The Bell Tele-
phone Company of Canada,
The 250 men are beingtrained
for service on the ,IVIid-Canada
Line
Young technicians recreited
within the seven companies
which,form the Trans-Canada
Telephone System are taking a,
course which covers the entire
range of modern communiea-
ions, After six months of study
—three months basic and three
months ed*anced training—the
young -telephone men emerge
with.a good knowledge of micro-
wave transmission, raddre4adio,.
telephone, radio-telephene, tele-
type, power distribution and
many other components of up-
to-the-minute communications.
In his six months a journey-
ing through the electronic Maze
a student acquires 5,000 sheets
of paper with • various ,kinde of
notes, He "sees 400 slides, num-
erous diagrams and circuit 'lay-,
outs, several films including one
on fire-fighting, He Teams to
become safety conscious, he im-
provee his knowledge of first aid
and he also acquires a gdod ape
preeiation of problems connected
with survival in, the Arctic.• .
' Then after six months of lee-
tures, many hours of home work
each, week and several exams,
'the new electronics specialist is
ready to go to one of the detec-
tion stations on the northern
frontier. Along with- other grad-
• uaths' from the )3ell school, he
will 'coordinate equipment instal-
lation, operate the electronic ap-
paratns and keep it ,in working
condition.
Training these technicians for
the lid-Canada Line is part of
the giant task—undertaken by
the. Bell company in acting as
the Trans- Canada Telephone-
system's_ project agent for the
construction ofthe radar fence
,for the Canadian Government,
Working in close cooperation
with the Bell Company are six
other Canadian telephone orgatt,
leatiene ee. the Maritime Tele,
graph and Telephone Company,
the New Brunswick Telephone
Company, the Manitoba Tele,
phone Company, the Saskatche-
wan Government Telephones,
the Alberta Government Tele-
phones, and the British .Columbia
Telephone Company, The. Mid-
Cenada, Line, which will'be over
3,000 miles long, is being built
and .eventually will be maintain- e
ed,• by the Trans-Canada Tele-
phone System. •
One of the early steps In
carrying out this .project.• was
the establishment of the elect-
ronics. school in, the old St. Lew-
renee Street building; long the
homy of ,a famous tea company.
• Instructors were selected a-
mongst experienced plant men,
for the basic training period; and
telephone engineers for •the„ad-
. vanced course. When the engin-
. 'eering of the equipment has been
completed and the plant .men
have bowie fully conversant
with its maintenance. and opera-..
tion, they will take Over teach-
ing in both par* of the course,
:In addition td•-• the telephone
men, one class of RCAF men in ,
7-111-nforin attended the advanced
course.
Out of -this schtiol, 'one top
telephone official-remarked, will
come many , of the telephone
plant managers of the • future.
Another.incentive for the :ambit-.
eious young technician who vol-
unteers _for service on the Mid'-•
Canada Line is the additional
pay he will'receive' for working

Pig Prices Rise
Attributed To
Marketing Agency
The 'President of the Ontario
Hog Producers' Co-operatiVe, Mr.
Charles, McInnes has stated that
there is a well organied effort on
the part of 'proceseors Of pork to
break the price of hogs paid to
farmers. Mr. McInnis said that
the level of 29% cents a lb. back
to 27 cents per lb. for hogs was
off-set last Wednesday through
the, efforts of the. Ontario Hog
Producers' Marketing Agency. • ,
Monday, July 30, Mr. Mc-
Innis stated that no processors
in Ontario or. Quebec had bid the
Agency more than -27 cents per
lb. On the , morning of July 31,
he said that the packer organiza-
tion broke and the Ontario hogs
moved at the price level of 28
,centg? and some at the price of
28 Ye cents.
In the face of resistance by pro-
cessors to price asked by the Mee.=
keting Agency prices were main-
tained at a level very c'lose to that
asked by the Marketing Agency.
The Ontario Hog Prodileers'
Marketing Agency 'reaffirmed
their contention that had all hogs
been on the open market the
price to the producers would have
held to the 2914, cents level this
week. 'Mr. McInnis said that with
the consumer price of ham rang-
ing from 95 cents to 99 cents
per,. lb., and weekly hog market-
ings in Canada averaging 100,000,
and considering the average ex-
port and domestic disappearance
of pork for June, 1956, at 120,000
Per week, the Ontario Hog Pro-
ducers' Marketing Agency refus-
ed to sell at the ridiculously low
prices the 'packers offered,
Mr. McInnis urged all produc-
ers to,place their hogs on the open
market, This would help, he said
to eliminate at certain times the
packer pressure for lowering the
price of 119es.
