An inkling of the extensive wea
ther and general air reconnaissance
already attempted in the north wa
given recently when a Un te
States army air force B-29. base '
in Alaska, was force i down in
Greenland.
C. D. Howe, Canadian recon
struction minister, told Parliament
yesterday that it is hoped the new
system will facilitate exchange o:
weather information with Russia
“and other neighboring countr e>
in the north when possible.”
Russia, Howe said, already has
a “very extensive exchange of
weather information with Canada
and will be greatly benefitted by
the additional reports which wll.
be made available to them.”
During the war, the United
States used weather reports f’om
Russia, particularly those on storm
movements from Siberia which
eventually reached such areas as
the Aleutians and Alaska from
which American air and naval
forces were operating against toe
Japanese.

OTTAWA, Ont. (>P)—U. S. and
Canadian cooperation in develop
ment of the Arctic air defense and
commercial purposes moved an
important step forward today with
announcement that nine new wea
ther stations are to be jointly built
in the northern Canadian waste
lands within the next three years.
Announcement of the plans by
reconstruction minister C. D. Howe
marked the end cf the first stage
of a project first broached by the
United States last summer, when
American military author1 i t i e s
showed a pressing interest in hem
isphere defense arrangements.
U. S. military forces will under
take virtually all of the construc
‘ion, it is.understood, being better
equipped for the task.

Marshall Leaves
For Peace Parley
WASHINGTON, (^P)—Secretary
of state Marshall left today for the
Big Four foreign ministers meet
ing in Moscow, openly expressing
doubt that a pence treaty for Ger
m my can be written there.
He forecast success, however, for
a second aim of the momentous
gathering—the drafting of a peace
agreement for Austria.
Preliminary talks have laid the
groundwork for an Austrian ac
cord. But Marshall said the Big
Four—France, Russia, Great Bri
tain and the United States—arc
-•till in disagreement on the fun
damentals of a German treaty.
This preview of the Moscow
meeting was given reporters just
before Marshall’s plane took off at
!):11 a.m« The secretary added in a
dictated statement:
“If we are sVicPessful in reach
ing agreements on major funda
mental principles I would be very
much pleased.”
In any event, Marshall said, he
is conscious that the negotiations
will be “extremely difficult and
their consequences momentous.”
Several top govermental offi
cials, including undersecretary of
state Dean Acheson, and treasury
secretary Snyder, were at the air
port to see Marshall off on his most
important undertaking since he
took over the nation’s top diplo
matic post.
Europeans first exploited Liber
ia’s rubber industry in 1898.
project coincided with tabling in
Parliament of the government’s fi
nancial estimates for the fiscal
year beginning April 1, in which
defense expenditures are cut by 52
per cent to $239,741,000.
Of this amount $5,429,577 is for
the northwest highway system, the
Canadian section of the Alaska
highway built largely by the
United States during the war, and
$6,311,287 for the jiorthwest stag
ing route, an airline built largely
by Canada and roughly parallel
ing the highway.
