M. Weir, "A Survey of Rehabilitation" tabled recently in the House of Commons. Dr. Weir, who has had consid- erable experience in preparing re- ports such as this one, is acting Director of Training of the De- partment of Pensions and National Health, and has been engaged since 1942 in compiling the survey based on opinions of substantial numbers of people with specialized knowl- edge irrwidely varied fields and on questionaires from men and wo- men in the Armed Services, and business and professional groups. * * * In the opinion of these thous- ands of Canadians, when peace comes and after the transition from wartime to peacetime economies, there is a possibility of there being anywhere from a million to a mil- •„ lion and a half additional jobs ;avai•Iable in this Dominion. Professional opportunities are seen increased by 50,000 with doc- • tors and dentists heading the list. Construction and building, manu- facturing and agriculture are seen as offering the greatest opportuni- ties for employment of men in the Armed Services, and, in the case of women, the three principal fields will be found in service (profes- sional, personal and miscellaneous), vocational and clerical work. * * * The report discusses the possi- bility of using present federal es- tablishments for training, including Army trade schools, Naval training :centres and Air training schools and special centres like Research Enterprises Limited`, Toronto, and No. 1 'Wireless School at Mon- treal. Public health experts agree on the early need of obtaining a Largs slumber of trained personnel and extension of both curative and pre- ventive facilities, and based on the possibility of a greatly expanded public health and health insurance program, the report foresees a def- 'inite increase in these services in municipalities. The report also re- gards as an encouraging sign "an .educational awakening, particu- larly in Quebec and the Maritime .Provinces." * * * In agriculture, the report indi- cates 1,240 government personnel will be needed. Of these, 1,000 are in Quebec alone, under the. head- ing. "District Agriculturists," The report explains that the Quebec fig- - ure means • positions corresponding ;to principals of rural elementary ''agticultural schools. The deputy ininlster of agriculture for Quebec .and his assistants have been experi- anenting during the last three years with boys' schools staffed by com- petent instructors trained in agri- culture. The three R's and other elementary school subjects, as well as practical agriculture, are taught, and it is suggested that about 1,000 such schools would be desirable in the interests of Que- bec rural life. Churchill's Delayed Christmas Party The Prime Minister was unable to share any of the Christmas festivities, having been at that season an invalid, whose condition caused much anxiety to his medi- cal attendants, writes the London correspondent of The Ottawa Journal. His recovery has been so- somplete, however, thanks partly to his splendid constitution and partly to the skill of his doctors, that Mr. Churchill was able to hold a delayed Christmas celebration at his house in London on the night of his return from Morocco. There was a jolly party—a turkey which had been kept carefully in cold storage — and Winston pulled crackers with the best of them. tI is as wel that these facts should be kn,,wn, in order to reassure the public generally as to the Prime Minister's health. Those who shared in the deferred Chris- tmas party declare that he has never been in better form.

Hitler Indicates Suitable Understudy According to- Stockholm reports, which may be taken as • well -an - formed, Hitler recently held a Berchtesgaden conference at which . he indicated Martin Bormann as his nominee for the Fuehrership in case anything happened to itinr self, writes the London corres-' pondent of The Ottawa Journal. Whether this is a hint that Hitler contemplates hara-kiri, 'which he. has frequently stated would be his resort in extremity, anybody is at liberty to guess. His selected triumvirate, in the event of his own demise, consists of Bormann, as Number One, with Goering and Himmler. Bormann's reputation is a sinis- ter one, He is reputed, by 'those who know about hint, the most ruthless Nazi of them all. His present task is disciplining Ger- many's dangerous home -front gar- rison of millions of conscripted foreign workers, These are said to total over twelve millions, and they have been showing signs of restiveness. Bormann's plans for handling them are as drastic as his reputation suggests. He is 44, an atheist, and is described as "a chunky' little man with thin black hair." He will indubitably look his best on a gallows. We can often blame nervous tension for miserable feelings and fears.

Current ivents Invasion Of Europe from West Impossible Without Air Supremacy A clearer perspective of the war -••- one which holds out high hopes for the future, but also reveals by bow narrow a margin the Allies may have escaped catastrophe ---is pro- vided by two reports just published, says the New York Tidies, One is th•ereview presented 'to -.the House of. 'Commons by Air Minister Sin- clair in which he declares: 'There lies before us now clearly attainable the glittering prize of air suprem- acy ---a talisman that can paralyze German industry and war trans- port." This is a confident, sweep- ing anal authorative statement, all the more impressive because it is based on actual battle results. First Condition pf Victory It has become a military axiom that while the airplane can no more win wars that can any other single weapon, nevettheless, supremacy in the air is the first condition of victory, and especially` of a ,Victory which depends on the, success, of. amphibious operations of , unpre- cedented dimensions, Tit'e course of the war has shown that victory in Europe is impossible :Without a mass invasion from the'-wesi,` dud the lessons of Sicily and Italy have demonstrated that such' which must be staged front Britain across the English Channel, is like- • wise impossible without complete domination of the skies. •; At best, the invasion will :involve the great- est reatest risks ever faced by any army; it would be foolhardy .to undertake it before decisive victory is won in the air. But until recently the possibility of such an air victory was ins itself a smatter of grave doubt. In 1940 Hitler possessed air superiority, as the''Allies' do to- day; yet the British air force was able to maintain such striking power and reserves that Hitler did not dare stage his. own cross -chancel invasion of Britain and instead turned east against Russia. Decisive Period Now, however, Air Minister Sin- clair assures us that not. only Allied air superiority but Allied air su- premacy is in. sight. His statement that the period between the Febris ary and the March moons is likely .to prove the decisive stage of the whole war demonstrates his con- fidence that the air victory is close at .hand. That may turn out to be the optintisni of; the specialist, but Mr. Sinclair -is able- to back up .:his optimism with a greater display of air -power than was thought pos- sible only a sllprt while ago. He is able to baGlci'i up with round-the- clock air attacks by' thousands of American and British planes on both the German air force and the factories which produce>,� . T He' is able to back it up with 'the dizninishing power of the German air force to interfere with these as- saults; in fact, some of the, Allied air armadas now roans the German skies withoutatching a glimpse of a German plane. He is able to -back it•up, finally, with the dimin- ishing rate of Allied losses, a trend HAS INVASION ROLE Rear Admiral Alan Goodrich Kirk, above, will command U. S.

This is interpreted in Wash- ington to mean that both the Uni- ted States and Great Britain strip- ped their -own forces in the begin- ning to provide the hard-pressed Russian armies with that additional equipment that spelled the dif- ference .between victory and- defeat. These shipments, which now exceed $4,000,000,000 in value and include ;,800 planes, 4,700 tanks and tank destroyers, more than 170,000 trucks, 83,00Q jeeps and many other items, •in addition to the huge sup- plies shipped to Russia by Great Britain, may have • delayed both the training and the equipment of the American and 'British armies, and therewith also the Allied prepara- tion for the present air battle and the invasion. But they helped to keep Russia in the war, and in so doing not only helped to save the Red Armies for the final battle but also prevented a junction of the German and Japanese forces and a decisive shift of the balance of power in favor of the A.iis, The fact that Russia is now publishing frill details -of Allied aid, and that the Russians themselves are aston- ished -at its dimensions, indicates a new appreciation of the Allied role in the was whic;i should smooth the path to a more perfect co-oper- ation in the future, VOICE OF ,. 11-1 E PRESS BLOOD' ,DONORS CLINIC "Supposin" you 5aref wear a uni- form, haven't the money. to buy a bond• or. even'a 'Wan:savings stamp.

He takes samples of sand front the grinding Machines and sifts them through a series of screens of varying fineness. It is easy to weigh and measure the coarser sand particles, but those which collect on the bottom screen are too fine to move the pointer on the tiny scales. So he shuts his eyes and sets his finger- tips down on the screen. By feel- ing alone, he says, he counts the grains and notes thein on the work sheet. May Fortell Weather Year In Advance Today we retake a new weather map every three hours to keep up with the rapid changes in the weat- her, and extend the forecast every six hours, John Humphreys points out in The National Geographic Magazine, Twice a week we make a forecast for five days ahead which is eighty-five to ninety per- cent correct the first day but gradually decreases in accuracy to- ward the end of the period. But these five-day forecasts are good enbltgh so that urgent war traffic on the railroads is often routed .according to them. A world network of weather - observing stations, sending reports to central offices, will come after the war, Ships and perhaps automatic floating stations will send in reports from the oceans. Long-range forecasts will im- prove. Research may enable us to predict weather trends for six months or a year in advance. `You Can't Be Too Careful Nowadays' Months of accumulated resent- ment smouldered between the lines of a letter received by a London girl from a Canadian sailor, excerpt: "After leaving where we were be- fore we left for here, not knowing we were coming here from there «'e could not tell if we would arrive here or not, Nevertheless, we now are here and not there." The censor appended a rueful note, saying "you can't be too careful nowadays."
