LESS THAN 80,000 CANADIANS TO COME A despatch from London says:- There ays:There are less than 80,000 Canadians now _ awaiting repatriation. Over 54,000 sailed during May. The last units of the Fourth Di- vision sailed on the Olympic on Fri- day. About 2,500 Canadians, consisting Iu � n You give up your liberty to him to whom you tell your secrets. Better For Her.

A despatch' from St. John's, Nfld,, says: -Announcement by Major Part- ridge, R,A.F., .special "`agent for the British Admiralty ,en connection with the, proposed trans-Atlantic aedplai:e flight ea Commander John Cyril Porte, that he had been suoned home, was construed by the British aviators here as an indication that the Admiralty had cancelled Com - mender Porte's flight and was can- eentrating all its efforts on the pro- posed flight of the dirigible R-34, from England. Advices received hero indi.^ata that the R-34 will start not later than June 20. It is understood that the big ship will fly first from Eng- land to Labrador, then south over Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and New England to New York. After stop- ping at New York for inspection the R-34 will proceed to 'Florida, where atmospheric conditions will permit •If her being moored in the open until the future direction and scope of the cruise has been determined. Major Partridge also was serving as official starter here for the Royal Aero Club of the trans-Atlantic flights by the crews: of the Handley. Page, Vickers-Vimy and Martinsyde planes now being assembled here. B,is departure, however, will not af- fect the plans of these crews, all of whom are meshing preparations in the hope of "hopping. off" before the R=34 leaves England. HUN SAIF LOSSES 3,500,000 TONNAGE , Sunk, Captured and Seized by the Allies During War. A despatch from Landon says:- Vice-Adm,,ra1 %Tollweg, writing in the Vossische Zeitung, estimates the Ger- man mercantile marine before the war at a gross tonnage of five and a half millions. In the four and a half years of the war about three-quarters of a million tons were added, little more than the output of asingle normal year, During the war about 1,000,000 tons were captured by the enemy, of which 325,000 tons were taken on the high seas. Two and a half million tons tools refuge n neutral harbors, but as neutralscame into the war the great-. er part of this was lost. To Spain a total of 22,000 tons and to Holland 38,000 tons were given in compensa- tion for losses due to the U-boat earn. paign, He estimates that, • in all, Germany lost about three and a half millions of gross tonnage during the war. BRITAIN WILL PURCHASE ALL AVAILABLE CANADIAN 'FOODS/EFS British Food Controller Has Already Arranged For the )(report of Bacon, Butter and Lard -Big Demand For Cheese. A despatch from London says:- Negotiations ays:Negotiations are now in progress be- tween Britain and Canada for the supply of all available foodstuffs to the former. High as are prices ori Canada at the present, it is on ar- rangements with her and her sister Dominions that the Mother Country is pinning her hope of cheaper food prices, now . that -control has been removed. Already arrangements have been made for the export of bacon, butter, lard, etc., from Canada during the present year, while the British Food Controller, Mr, G. H. Roberts, advocates permanent arrangements with a view to making the Empire self-supporting. There has been a rapid redaction -in Brit'ia food rices, but duringg the last month the. � `urea fig urea 107 per cent. higher than before the war as compared with 138 per cent. in Nevean;ber. It is threatened, however, that next Winter prices may be higher than ever, and it ,is for this reason that all available sur- pluses of food are being secuzie from Canada, Australia, South Africa and. the other overseas Dominions. For bacon supplies, for instance, Britain will continue to be dependent on Can- ada and the United States, but fears competitive buying by Germany apd Austria in this market. The stocks of bacon owned by the Ministry of Food are almost exhausted, and bacon will probably cast 3s. 6d. a pound very soon. As regards butter, Govern- ment contracts have been made with Australia and New Zealand for their exportable surplus up to next sum- mer, while 'negotiations are also in progress to obtain all available sup- plies from Canada as well as the United State!, Holland, etc. Lard is expected toe extremely expensive, and Britain alone could take all of Canada's surplus. As regards cheese, supplies are to be imported on private account from Canada. Mr. H. B. Thomson, ex -Canadian Food Control- ler, states that .the Canadian farm- ers could increase their _ production tenfold and still be unable to meet, all demands for the next few years. The Canadian production, he says, is the most disappointing when viewed in relation to the opportunities which exist. 3Et tar I AT et- T.7 YPI JI445 • YOUR TROU[3LE. IS • `fes DON'T HANDLE TOUR.
