• Exchange Fund Will Beast Trade

Britain and the United States differ-

which provedthe basis, of the 'agree-
ment reached by 24 United Nations:
Mr. King Presses Post-War',Pfaiii'-'
Mr. king emphasized to Parliament
that the Government intends to pass
this session •ite ecenprehensive pro-
gram of legislation .designed to meet
postwar problems and 'assure a high
etandard. of living in :the.. Dominion
after the war. IVIeaSeres to be
brought before Parliamentinclude a
national housing bill; a family alloW-
anee -bill, a bill -to provide a floor' un-
der farm prices and a health insur-
ance bill, if reasonable agreement can
be reached between. the previncee.
Thehonking program will. include
aid for -building and iniproving farm
homes and dwellings in villages and
towns, as .welf as in the large cen-
tres of popalation.
• The family allowance program, fed-
erally financed, will prOvide monthly
payments to, parents according to the,
number of dependent children, of
ndlitil.a,ge in the family. It will be
,ot special assistance to those in the
loWer incoine groups. The measure to
place a fleor under farm prices is de-
eigiled to keep agricultural prices

Plan To Avert Economic Slump
The fact that the .Government . is
proceeding without deley to establish
the two' new departniente,- the. main
duties of which will develop after:the
war, emphasizes` that pest -war prob-
lems, are to be tackled in advance, to
prevent dislocation of Canada's econ-
omic fabric and avert depression
when peace doniee. 'The Prime Min-
ister intimated' that the main task of
the rconstruction department will be
to assure jobs to the 2900;000.. men
and Women now in the aria:led forces
and in various types ''of war averk.
One of his most significant state-
ments.was that they must all be, plac-
ed at work which will be socially useful and that their jabs must be as
permanent as possible.
Though the war situation is striate
and pressing- for • Canadian people,
with Canadian feces likely to be en-
gaged 'in fighting at an early date On
an unprecedented scale, 'it is now ap-
parent that the Government and Par-
liament are determined there 'will be
no economic slump inqtareakpeitinithr
when victory demands a transition to,
peacetime modes of living.
Plan To Modify Hyde Park Pa' ct
' Complete success of the,Hyde Park
Agreement, reached by Mr. King and
• Presideat Roosevelt..in. 1941, .was, re-,
• vealeh -when the Prime Minister indr
cated to Parliament that it may soon
be greatly modified. Made at a time
when Canada urgently needed -United
States ioIiars to buy war require-
ments across the line, -the agreement
integrated. the economies of the two
• nations for an utmost war .effort and.
provided- for huge war purchases by
• the United (States from 'Canada.
The' arrangement has worked so
weilthat no'w Canada, has a large ac-
einulatien of United States money
and application of the agreement is'
to be radically changed: This, Wili
mean' reduction of 'United States war
contracts' to "Canada, but this will be
done by agreement on ari 'orderly- and
gradual , basis. It may be that some
'Canadian plants, now working on 11
S. war orders, may be able to change
over to manufacture .of civilian re-
quirements . for ,households o construc-
tion and business. Workers may also
be freed -for other high priority war
work' still necessary:

nounced that more than 100,000 air

The answer is that gains from high-

for a bog, you are quite conscious of
it, a reductiOn.'in,the price of things

'good nurserymen or seedsmea -d$ not
bring plants .righf out of the heated
greenhouse and offer them for s,ale.
First they will gradually adapt them
to cooler and 'mere rigorous outdoor
temperatures by' hardening plants in
a cold fraine.
Melons, Squash and Cucumbers
In very small gardens where space
is extremely limited these things can
be grown along the row of c-orn or
at the edge Of the garden where they
will trail over the ,fence, path or per-
haps the plot of the next door neigh-
bor. But for the best results,
hers, squash and 'melons should be
planted in specially prepared hills.
These plants like , hot weather, are
very much afraid of frost and cold,
wet feet.
Hills are simply, loose, soil -builtaip
mounds twa or three feet 'across 'and
about six inches high.- Into these
should be worked some Well -rotted
manure or' black' multh. This Jeeps
'the soil open so that the soft, 'fibrous
root,' can penetrate easily and the
'darkish color of the muck or Well -
rotted manure absorbs the beat of
the sun which- these plants love. •
Experts advise planting about five
seeds in boles abont an inch deep,
and six to ten inches apart on the
little mounds mentioned. Later when
plants develop, in about two weeks'
time actually, . thin to about three
plants to each group. Keep .weeds
cleared away, watch Out for bugs, and
to encourage early fruiting nip off end,
of vines when half a dozen melons
or a dozen or so squash or euoumbers
are on the way. If the ground is very
wet it is a good plan to put a little
straw under the melons or squash to
keep them from rotting.
