One answer is a frameless, feuild-it-yourself house designed by Canadians of Canadian alum­ inum. It needs no foundation; is non-corrosive and verminproof; is so lightweight that it is packed in car tons .easily carried by plane, jeep or even burro. The Colombian government has ordered 3,200 of them to help relieve the shortage of rural housing in that South American country. So it’s not surprising, with aluminum travelling so far and doing so muph, that Alcan is again increasing its smelting capacity in both Quebec and British Columbia. ALUMINUM COMPANY OF CANADA, LTD.
