Ln her report, Mrs. Beer out- lined the work of the Atsoclatlon for the last year, referring espec- ially to the war work which has been covered in weekly meetngs at the hospitals.

Last fall 42 graduate nurses com- pleted the St. John's Ambulance Course and received their vouch- ers,

Up to the present time 29 nurses have been called for military duty. thus entailing a serious shortage of qualified institutional, public health and general duty nurses.

Questioned on the discussion 1n the Canadian House of Commons this week over the shipment of

~ Canadian wheat to Japanese-con-

trolled North China. he answered:

“I have very little doubt that the Canadian policy with regard to wheat is closely concerted with that of Greet Britain."

Discussing Britain's blockade of the Axis coutries. he declared i: W65 effective now “only on a, much more limited front than be- fore" because of Germany's m- vasion of other countries. But the Reich was “certainly tight for oil."

‘The main thing about the oil blockade ls that Germany is lim- ited as to its transport facilities," he pointed out. Oil was available in Rumanla, but it was difficult to transport 1t in quantity up the Danube.

Coming Events Cast Their Shadows Before

A curious thing happened yes- terday and something which many consider a very peculiar coinci- dence. The large Victory Loan thermometer which is set up on the Weigh Scales near Victory

which is used to indicate the total subscriptions at the end of each day and is operated by "the pull of a rope" was found at noon yes- terday to be registering total sub- scriptions of $350,000. The dis- coverer got quite excited and rushed up to victory Loan Head- quarters to find out if the amount showing was correct. l-ic was told that there must be some mistake as the total had not been changed from the previous day when $320.- 950 was registered and had not been changed. Speculation a, tr what had been the cause of the phenomena finally arrived at the correct wscluslon which was that the rain had tightened the rope causi the thermometer to soar up to 0.000 which curiously en- gugh was very little above the total achieved when the shades g of night arrived and the staff is-
