Premier Angus L. MlcDonslzi, making the announcement tonight following an important four-day cabinet meeting released an ex- chance of w“ ponde ".6 in which he asked Prime Minister Macken- flll‘ K1118 to reconvene the Domin- ion-Provincial conference late this month and in which Ml‘. King pg. plied a resumption of the confer- once might serve only to "make still more difficul: an eventual long-term agreement between the Dominion and the Provinces."

Reporters, summoned to old Province House as the cabinet meeting ended, pressed Mr. Mac- donald for worrl as to the nature of the cabinet’: "views" But he said it would have to have the ap- proval of the caucus before it was released.

Much Speculation

There was considerable specula- tion on the announcement. And One widely-repealed report was that the cabinet was advocating ac- ceptance. with minor reservations. of the Federal proposals. This spec- ulation was based on tne fact that Macdonald was seeking ap- proval of the putty membership - n, rare move and one which might ‘ -" ‘ ho has departed from his previops_,etand against certain of the Bdfilinlon proposals Mr. Maodonald used the word "unanimous" regarding his cabin- et’s undisclosed "views?

Since one cf the concerns of the Provincial Department of Recon- struction is the assisting of com- mercial enterprises within the Province in their construction problems, it is understood the mat- ter c1 securing such building ma- terial as steel from surplus War Assets property was brcttflht t0 tho attention of Mr. JP Connolly, Deputy-Minister of Reconstruc- tlorr who has given the question sympathetic consideration.

HALJIPAX, N. 8-. Nov. 8-(CP)— Labor Minister Mitchell painted a bright picture of the employment situation in Canada today. declar- ing that more people now are gainfully employed in the Dom- inion than at any time during the war.

Mr, Mitchell made the slate- ment in an interview here while awaiting passage to the West In- dies where ha will spend a short vacation accompanied by Mrs. Mitchell.

“At the peak of the war we had 0.000.000 people employed ln the armed forces. agriculture and in- dustry." he said, "and we were able to reach that figure only by regulating employment through the War Labor Board. Today we have 4.M0.000 people in gainful employment. which does not in- clude those in the services. We have 000.000 more people working

Reports More Employed Now Than In War Years

in Canada this November and I17.- 000 more women than we had last November."

“The labor situation is pretty well stabilized in Canada as a whole. There are no disputes in the basic industries and no atop- pages of work. Employment today in the larger picture la lighter than ever before. with more people working in industry, agriculture and commerce than during the most difficult period of the war.”

"This condition rather confounds those gloomy ones who were pre- dicting that 500.000 would be un- employed withln six months after the end of the war)!
