OTTAWA, August 6.-.---At7 the request
of the FfireigI1 Exchange Control
Board, thealt.(,'.DI.I'. have commenced a
cou.t try -wide Aleck ()t the way in which
storekeepers, service stations, hotels
and others are handling V.S. currency
received from tourists
The U.S. dollar expenditures of tour-
ists in Canada are. one of the main
sources of the fureigli,exeharige needed
to pay for Canadian .imports and other
normal expenditures in the United
States. So that. the U.S. dollars spent
by tourists will be available for these
purpoSes, the Foreign EXchange Con-
trol Regulations require that Canadian
merchants and others turn the U.S.
currency they receive into their banks.
Officials of the Board said that re-
ports -they have received indicate. that
many merchants are not turning •in
their -U.S. dollar receipts brit ire ay-
ing them out freely in change and in
-some cases are selling them to members
of the ptiblic in exchange for Canadian
-currency. This has led to the check-
up now • being made, and where
breaches of the regulations are found
prosecutions under the Foreign Ex-
change Control Act•will be commenced.
Under the regulations a merchant.
hotelkeeper 'or other . person engaged
in a business serving tourists may ac-
cept U.S. currency at par and may
make change hi F..S. currency for a
non-resident -tourist who tenders U.S.
currency in payment for purchases.
I+or this purpose a merchant may keep
on hand a- rens(iapable amount of U.S.
currency,: but, -with this one exception,
-is required to turn in to lit bank all
U.S. currency he receives.
In no circnrnstances is a merchant,
hotelkeeper, etc., entitled under the
regulations'to pay out U.S. currency in
exehauge for Canadian currency or
in change 'to a .Canadian resident, even
thouh the1 tt may • have tendered

did blossom as the rose, and Kintaii
and Lochatlsh became the laud of homes
where toil can make men free, the
true aristocracy of earth,,.
_-. the Vision Jack and the Royal
Standard, fluttered iii the breeze. The
Scottish tartans and beret worn by
the men intensified the glamor of the
'I't'ene, and the golden glow of the
setting sun fell on the gathering like

Harry MacDonald was chairman for
the day. Miss Marian Munn sang in
