It was further indicated by de- fence circles today that the navy is gunning for a strength of 10.- 000 men. more than one-third larger than now, as the minimumn necessary for effective training. As one step. consideration is be- ing given -to lowering the age limit for recruits frcm 17% to l1 in an effort to boost. the influx of new men.

Ill Blueprint Stage

The aim-submarine escort craft now is in the blueprint stage at naval headquarters. It will be constructed in Canadian shipyards and will have a lot of equipment standardized with that used by the Americans. Its construction is expected to be paralleled by bulld- of more minesweepers.

This is a reflection of the belief that comtbatting subs and mines twill still be the R.C.N.‘e main job in any new war.

Meanwhile, there are no navy ships now under construction. al- thought major repairs and realm- ernent are generally under way.

The navy would like to have its own subs but the expense is heavy alld_ establishment 0f a special arm oi the service would be at. the ooei. of surface crailt. Tile compromise consists of man- oeuvres with British and us. subs.

It is fell. that the current strength of less than 7.500 nlen is considerably below the minimum needed for cifcctive training but improvement. in the manpower situation is oonddered fairly sat- isfuctcry.

Navy sources point out that un- less a navy is of a certain size it cannot hope to function effective- ly because it can't. get. the essen- tial group training. nor can li. af- ford to man all types of ships that. are essential to training.

It also co templates lose of some of its senior men to inter- national tasks because of Canad- ian comrnltments such as the At.- lantio security pact.

Discussion Overseas On Educational Film Needs

GWS

"Canadian educational author- ities are primarily interested in films suitable for Canadian child- ren, no matter from what source." stated Mr. II. B. Chandler. Provin- cial Department oi’ Education. who has just returned from a flying two-week trip to England where the directors of visual education from all the Provinces and New- foundland were the guests of the J. Arthul-‘Rsnk organization to dis- cuss educatlonal films for Canada. “In a highly competitive field. U. S. educational films have cer- tain advantages ill that the general educational set-up is very similat to ours. as is their way of life and nlanner of speech," stated Ml. Chandler. However, British films are commended by their back~ ground of the British pllllisophy of life. their general thoroughness and temperate approach to educa- tional problems. Mr. Chandler stated that the pur- pose of their visit. was to discuss Canadian educational filnl needs with Gaul-nont British Instruction. al Films with a view to servicing the Canadian market. Gaumonl British has been producing eduoa tlonal films for British schools for many years and have reached a high point in quality. There arc. however, several objections to tile present films for Canadian schools. For instance. the tendency in En:- land is to produce "secondary school films, while the need in Con ads is for elementary and junlo. high school level iilrns i. e. grades seven to nine.

"Oxford Accent"

Another point is the difference between the British film and the Canadian curriculum and one of the main objections is the extreme English "Oxford" accent. Ml. Chandler felt that an attempkwill be made by Gaumorlt British to meet these objections and stated that they are already looking around a "commonwealth voice. . Elementary and secondary schools were visited in Harrow, where the party saw at first hand the use made of visual aids. The Middlesex area had just had a grant of one million dollars per year for visual education. This rcp- resented the equivalent of one dol lar per child per year being spent in this field alone~exceeding ally U. S. or Canadian projects.

High-spots of. Visit

The Canadian party was partl- cuiarly interested in a visit to the animated fllm studios whore David Hand, until recently closely us- sociated with Walt Disney, is now turning out. both entertainment and educational cartoons for Gau- mont British. He ilad just com- pleted arl animated educational film on the geographic concept of the seasons, day and night. and latitude and longitude. Current. projects are a "hiellievai Castle and "Civil “hrs in England." Another high-spot in the \veli-or- ganized visit wilich gave them little time to themselves was the visit to the television studios. Britain leads the world in this field and the party of visual ed ucationallste watched remarkably clear vision experiments with large screens 12 feet by 14 feet, similar to normal sized movie screens. It is expected that some of the experiments witnessed will revolutionize the moving picture industry.

Mr. Chandler remarked on the progress which the British shelved in the practical application of elec- tronics developed during tho was. He saw an off-shoot of the mino- detector finding buried pipe, de- tecting foreign matter in animals. lumber and massed produced foods.

Mr. Rank Visited

A feature of the visit was their visit with J. Arthur Rank. "Prac- tically a minister without port» folio in the British Government. Mr. Rank, who is a tremendous worker and a retiring gentleman. gave the impression of complete sincerity ill using his world-wide interests to the best advantage ui‘ lile Commonwealth. He is par ticularly interested in the develop ment and production of religious and educational films." sold llll". Chandler.

Tho party paid a visit to the House of Commons and dined there with Hon. Geo. Tollllinson. Minis tcr of Education. A rough gfl ready Lnrlcusllire trade-unionist, Mr. Tomllnson impressed them with ills vigour nnd stated that the British Government is supporting the educational film industry.

Earl Winterton. who is known as the Father of the House, having sat there for 44 years and Hon. William Whiteley, Chief Govern ment whip were also visited.

Commenting on ills trip in gen. ere]. Mr. Chandler stated that ll was extremely well-organized anQ that they “were treated right ray. ally." He stayed nt the Savoy Hotel.

From Montreal to Prostwlck he flew B.O.A.C. and returned over- Greenland by T.C,A.. stopping in Iceland.
