 encouragement through an ap- propriation of $185,000 which the Provincial Government has voted for the development of it's fisheries.
 A form of subsidy was institut- ed for the purpose of helping the fishermen to equip them selves with new boats. This al- loWance was made on "length of keel' basis. A still more com- prehensive form of assistance has just been granted which will allow the fishermen to reflt and improve the boats they alrc 2dy have.
 Under the terms of the new grant, every fisherman who equips his boat or vessel with new rigging, which includes sails motors and other accessories, is entitled to a subsidy of 25 per- of the cost. The maximum al- loWance which fisherman can obtain from the Government is limited to $100 Should the new equipment run to $500, the mox- imum grant of $10O will be m1de. No grant will be made for re- pairs to old rigging.
 Through this assistance, it is expected that many boats ,-'"l be fitted with new engines and brisk derl md for new equi1- ment is fo"casted.
 Assistance is also being given in establishing modern plants for the production of high-grade cod liver oil and fish meal r7 awarding grants for the pur- chase of the necessary equip ment.
 The encouragement of the Quebec Government will un- doubtedly result in a consider able impe us being given to the fishery in nl1stries of the province which employs over 12,0O0 men. The amt. T value of Quebec's fish prOdl. ~tiOn is around $3 GOO =

Gently did it's best to encourage the automobile
trade as to say that since so many people lost
money in the stock crash, more people should
buy cars in installment), it now writes that
bankers expect that the crash will set back
the auto industry at least six months. And the
head of Montgomery, Ward states that there
will be no recovery until the end of 1880. We
shall go further into this at another time.
At the end of November Ford had fired
about half of the $4,000 workers in his plants,
with many of the rest on part time, and the
others facing wage cuts, speed-up and dis
charge His thirty plants were fully or partly
shut down-ostensibly to prepare for new
model, but actually because his dealers were
greatly overstocked. Ford himself admitted
before the Wall Street crisis that american
production had come to equal and surpass the
peoples power to purchase"--that is, over
production of goods as well as of plant capacity
was fact, and the much discussed "satura-
ton point had been reached.

of unemployed in Detroit is over 100000, in
Philadelphia over $4,000, etc In Detroit, TO,

Since 1921 about 100000 workers in ir

power corresponding with the industrial pro-
ucing power Of the nation' He speaks of
