Power output by the central elec- tric stations is much in excess of what it was a year or two ago. re- flecting further manufacturing ac.- tivity and the multiplied use of el- ectri: appartus in homes.

Although the chief stimulants to the increased activity in leading industries may be attributed to the advent of war, it is a notable fact that most of these industries have exhibited steady and uninterrupted improvement over the past several years _

All provinces should be benefici- arir oi industrial expansion, mainly the eastern provinces. which are well provided to be of assistance in supplying the requirements of foreign markets. since they are favoured with diversified industries. extensive agricultural and mineral resources and extensive transport

facilities. Construction in Canada

has ly from the effects of the depres- sion. From time to time, there have been periods of temporary lnlprove- ment but activity in this field has remained at a ower level than prevailed during the years imme- diately preceding the depression. Heavy taxation and moratorla. amongst other things. have been discouraging factors in the building of dwellings in urban centres. Some suppliers of building materials have enjoyed fair progress in reoent years as a result of public works _ having been undertaken by Gov- ernments. The Home Improvement Plan. operated by the Dominion Government. has been a ‘stimulat- illg incentive to the repairing and modemizatlon of buildings and this has contributed to a certain degree of activity. Building awards in the past year indicated a modest qllick- enllig in interest by contractors, but the total results are not yet impressive. War periods usual y dis- couragc building and the outlook for the wining year is thus obscur- ed. On the other hand , plant construction and the expansion of those already existing may have a beneficial effect

During 1939, nature was partic- ularly bountiful, and agricultural interests in every part oi the coun- try benefited from larger crops of higher quaiity. which has contri- buted materially to better tile farnl- ers' economic welfare. Coming at a time when foreign countries were making cmcrgcalcv demands for considerable quantities of grain, this proved to be a happy coinci- dence benficial to the farmers and retail trade. This large crop has helped to expand ilreigllt move- ment arld to tax elevator and ship- ping facilities by rail and water.

Canada's enviabie position amongst the trading nations of the world has not only been maintain- ed, ‘out has been satisfactorily ex- tended durirlg the past year. with the ever-growing volume of raw an finished goods going to other countries. Imports- have increased in keeping with added industrial activity, but the balance in our fav- our remains gratifying. As a conse- quence oi the war in the latter pal-t

Nickel. copper and zinc which were fairly active throughout the first part of the year. have attain- ed a prominent position as there is a steady increase in output and -sllipping.

The year 1938 has added another chapter to the epic story of the Ca- nadian mining industry. A record output was relzistered by gold mines and producers’ revenues were add- ed to further by the premium on US. funds since the beginning of the war

Imports of cotton and rubber have been much higher ainoe last September than previously. Moat branches of the textile industry are operating at high levels and the rubber and shoe industries find it. difficult to fill orders for local requirements and for ex rt.

Substantial gains have en rea- isteled in the clothing industry, and in certain quarters manufacturers are complaining that deliveries of raw materials are slow, while con- tlued pressure by retailers for de- liveries is taken u In indication that inventories are low.

The output of paper registered advances over comparative months of 108G. except during the first quarter oi the year. since Ben- tember. prices are firm and the trend ia upward. Bhipments are higher and bring in better returns on account of the premium on American funds and export ship- ments yalfe in that currency.

of the year. some of the channels of trade have had their course chanced. Some markets are clos- ed while others are open to us. The countries of South America are now attracting more attention from Ca- nadian exporters than formerly. Steady betterment of economic conditions in the United States has been a sighificant factor in the im- provement oi our export position. In a consideration cf wholesale and retail conditions. the year should be divided into two distinct carts: the period preceding the outbreak of war and the period immediately following the declaration. After pursuing a steady coursc throucll most of the Spring and Slimmer, all fonns of retail and wholesale trade were vitally stimluhted at the beginning of September. Price levels rose all along the line: net advances in average prices of food material in September and October were reported at l3 oer cent. mil prices of manufacturing materials at 30 per cent for the samr- period. Regulations imposed the war- time Prices and Trade Board in- fluenced the levelling of prices: the prompt acceleration of business that n-mvailed in September. econ- eioncd by heavier pzlrclla-cs in an effort to renlonish invwtorlcs than below normal. or in anticipation of speculative yvofits disappeared. and the prices came flown fr. mzlrly lines. but the avcraize is still ll per cant. to 10 per cent higher than in
