sterling to dollars were of tremendous importance Mr Drcw said The immediate Im pactof this was not as visible now as it would be later on be ause It would result In steady removal of trade

every six months These and later reviews bygtthe Pro grossive Conservative govern ment brought on delays Not only that but Avro had wanted to build singleengine singleseat plane while the ECAF held out for two engines and two seats This inevitably drove up the cost as well Avro unveiled the Arrow at its Melton Plant Oct 1057 The data turned out to be highly sig nificant because on the same day Russia launched the first earth satellite Willynilly decisionon the Arrow Was thrust on the Con servatives The government reviewed the program last summer and de cided to keep It going until early 1959 KILLED BY RECESSION Officials say the Arrow might have been put into production If it had not been for the reces sion With big deficit in the 195559 fiscal year and mounting non military expenseshospital insurance for examplethe gov ernment faced an even harder decision on the Arrow At the 1957 unveiling Defence Minister Pearlres said that manned interceptora for some yedrs to come
