Ronald Seddon, drew the lucky
tickets. • Ural. Leslie Oliver, Grey
township was the fortunate winner
of the $10.00 prize. Mrs. Oliver,
who had deposited only a small num-
ber of tickets last week and had not

Thecost ot Canada's war effort' ha'
this fiscal year is estimated at about
02.500 millions. Of this amount,
$170 millions has been allotted td
the Navy, $667 millions to the
Army, $397 millions to. the Air
Force. In addition, financing , '+
Britain's requirements in Canute
will take 0900 millions, to $1,150

It will be noted that the biggest
individual item is financing British
purchases, This is made up of
repatriation. of ''securities and
credits. These represent the
method whereby Canada enables
Britain to securegoods without
having to pay Canada any cash. BP'
bis means Britain is able to buy
from Canadian fac'toriesi war goods
