WAR EQUIPMENT
MANUFACTURE IN CANADA. MEETING BRITISH NEEDS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright OTTAWA. November 9. The Controller-General said aircraft, anti-submarine boats, ammunition and gun barrels will form the basis of the initial orders of which the British Board of Supply is placing in Canada. He added that he was unable to estimate the volume, but expressed the opinion that Canada had sufficient potential resources to provide all Britain’s war needs but not without extraordinary industrial expansion. He did not expect there would be any volume production of aircraft engines in Canada, but fuselages would be built in large numbers. The motors would be imported, either from the United States or England.
