OTTAWA (CP) ~— A one-day .‘Dominion - provincial civil de- fence conference decided Mon- day that a national civil de- fence exercise will be held every second year.

Defence Minister Harkness told reporters after the closed meeting that the next exercise ,will therefore be held in the fall of l e last exercise Tocsin l, was in the fall of 1961.

In years in which no national

exercise is held, there will be gregional and municipal exer- scIses. Mr. Harkness said a “surpris- ‘ing amount of progress" was reported by the provinces in the field of civil defence. Some 450,- ,000 persons received some civil' defence training in the last year.

Burns Curry, head of the gov- ernment‘s Emergency Measures ‘Organiation, said any figure on lthe total number of persons now 'trained in civil defence would the "illusory" because “people gcome and go.

OTTAWA (CP) -— Transport Minister Baicer said Monday the government is well aware of the financial situations of the CNR and CPR and is preparing legislation “that will settle this thing for a long time." He told the Commons that the legislation. flowing from the re- port of the MacPherson royal commission on transportation, will be introduced at this ses- sion of Parliament but he gave no indication of when.

r. Balcer gave no details. e minister was replying to opposition criticism of his reso- lution, introduced in the House Monday, to extend provisions of the Freight Rates Reduction Act from April 30 of this year to April 30, 1963. The act involves a $20,000,000 annual subsidy. The subsidy measure was first passed in 1959 as a so-called “roll back" move, reducing to eight per cent the 17-per-cent freight rate increase authorized in November, 1959, by the board of transport commissioners. EXTENDED THREE TIMES Since then the act has been extended three times, providing government subsidies to the CNR and CPR in compensation for the railways’ loss of revenue through the freight rate reduc- on

Mr. Balcer said the new sub- sidy is temporary. pending leg- islation ﬂowing from the Mac- Pherson report.

The No. 2 producer, Reynolds Metals Company. said Monday afternoon it still was studying the price situation before decid- ing what to do, but trade sources expected the firm would ave to meet the competition. Aluminium Limited of Mont- real, biggest international fac- tor in the metal and leader in recent price cuts, said it, too. is studying the cuts.

Kaiser announced that it was shaving the price of ingot metal by 1% cents a pound to 22% cents and of softextrusion bil- let by 1.8 cents to 23.7 cents.

NOT SURPRISING

Frank Howard (NDP Skeena) said he thought it “time to express some doubts whether I can blindly support" the measure.

These sources said that such a cut would wipe out the price advantage in buying foreign metal, while buying domesti- cally carries service and deliv- ery advantages.

The effect, some said, would be to help stabilize the market.
