municipalities with war contracts
could receive assistance of War
Time Housing Ltd. Training schools

it was learned. Information on priv-
ately operated firms making quickly
built prefabricated houses had been
obtained. Most of these were consid-
ered too lightly constructed for
year-round use.
A lengthy communication 51010 the
Canadian Federation of Mayors giv-

was referred to by Mayor Cluff.
Rooms for the boys on leave from

politicians in stglst, and I happened
to spot him adieu I was going
through the coach.
Mr, Aberhart carries his age eas-
ily, which must be over 65 years. He
has the expression that he is at
peace with the world, I asked him if
he had any worries and he said that
he has neves' been troubled with
things like that. Or at least he
throws them all off when be goes to
beet and never keeps awake thinking
about things that are irretrievable.
He was interested in my smoking
and said he had never smoked but
was wondering if there was some-
thing in it, and was he too late to
start? I told him that you had to be
"acelimatfzied" and that it was too
late to start now.
The only politics he mentioned
was that he had once quoted a para-
graph from the Independent in one
of bis speeches that "Alberta was
first in health, first in education. and
the time would come when it would
be first in social security," but this
was hardly politics as he did not
mention social credit at all, but said
he hoped my prediction would come
free.
The talk was chiefly about school
days, and about the teachers such as
Crawford in classics, Pendergast 01
