mm lugs building had concrete floor and walls. From the floor alone twenty to twenty-five carloada of broken concretb were taken out This concrete is being used in pieces for filling needs.

workmen are still digging out the concrete floor in the western section of the old buildiugzt At the other end men are laying tiles and track from the railways in the diesel shop. over which the an- sines may run when ifhey have been serviced and return to the main line. .

The diesel shop after a renova- tion which began three years ago, can now provide facilities for all servicing and repairs of the en- gines. except where an engine has

cose it is shipped back to the manufacturers for overhauling.

The diesel shop formerly was divided into four sections with a wall across the centre. In the easternjend were the machine and erecting shop and in the western rt the forage-and boiler shops were housed.

Full-length Pill

These four sections have been done away with. and the railway pits that formerly ran half the length of the building in the ma- chine ahop are new extended the full length of the shop. The three pits have been raised. 15 1-2 Inches on a concrete foundation.

Each diesel. after making one road trip. is run into the shop on the railway pits and checked. The diesels are now backed out of the shop but when the work is com- pleted they will run out of the building on the extended pit line! and by means of the switch revert to another track which will take the engine back to the main line.

In addition to servicing after each trip. the diueis are given weekly. monthly. quarterly, semi- annual and annual vcheck-ups. Work on the machines continues night and day with two shifts of men being employed. . 'mree shift! will be used when all work around the plant. has been completed.

Four rows of lights. each light with a 300 watt bulb. gives plenty of illumination to the plant for the night shift. Also along the roof are fans which blow out gases that ac- cu-mulate.

sand Drying liqnlpment

Replacing the old water tower. which was built in 1900. and the coal yard at the eastern end of the power house. will soon be a "sand drying house and sand storage building. The drying house is partially constructed while the foundation of the sand storage building is being laid. The storage building be a long construc- tion running pnrnllel and near the railway tracks.

The sand will be carried by the locomotive: and used on the tracks in places where the wheels slip due to ice. rain or any other cause. nch locomotive will carry four boxes of sand. .

The Itationeryboilera in tho pow-

er house have been oonverted to oil burners, and the cobweb-laden. coal-dusted walls have been trans- formed to spotless white and brown painted walls. The burners were changed in order to eliminate the use of coal in locomotives and to provide more space on the carierry as the transportation of cool and coal cars was taking up room that could be used by cat-loads of pro- duce. The feed water pump: in the power house will be rep this fall by new pumps. - . The dieeelization of the shop will mean employment for more men. Mr. McNevln stated. some old- time jobs will be dispensed with but there will be more men em- ployed ln other cleaned of work.

Australia Needs Capital Goods From Cailada

OTTAWA. Aug. 0 (cp) .. Australia, bringing in nbout 200.- 000 lmmigrants every your. needs capital goods from Canada which she cannot: get. from non-dollar countries, Prime Minister Menzies said here today.

"Newsprint is one of the things we need most badly tram Canada," Mr. Menzies said at a. press con- ference. He left later for Vancou- ver alter a three-day visit to the calpitni, which followed. talks in London and Washington.

"At the moment." the Prime Min- ister told as questioner, "I cannot say whether there is any likelihood of our newsprint purchases from Cnnoda being renewed."

The problem of Australia's dollar shortage was "sufficiently teasing to have o my attentibn con- siderably during the last six weeks." However, he aide-stepped a direct answer to the question: "if you borrowed money from Canada could you trade more with us?"

Mr. Menzies dealt briskly with a battery of questions on the Korean war. To some of them he replied tersely: "No comment." ,

He had r ceived "no word" as to how soon uatralian troops would be ready for service in Korea. but agreed that there were "similar- ities" between Canadian and Aus- tralian plans to aid the United

ntiona in the current conflict.

Mr. Menzies confirmed that there

is some Communist activity in Australia. and said the govern- ment will press a. meuure to pre- vent Communists from holding Government office or trade union sts. Asked if there is any movement afoot to form an Empire cabinet to meet the Korean crisis, he re- plied: "I do not think so."
