The unit will re- quire carpenters, bricklayers, stone- masons, steamfitters and other skilled men. A large number of in- experienced men will also be ac- cepted. This is the third C.A.S.F. unit to be recruited in Peterboro. The first raised was the 4th Anti-Tank Bat- tery, which absorbed the 4th Field at Lindsay. The city also provided the men for Headquarters Company of the Stormont, Dundas and Glen- garry Highlanders, 350 all ranks. And now 200 more men are required for the Engineers.

BUYING ' Tanks, Weapons Artillery, Other Included Washington, Aug. 9. States manufacturers were offered "hundreds of millions of dollars" .worth of new British orders for tanks, artillery ead other weapons heretofore not bought here. The important expansion of Brit- | ish purchasing was announced al- most simultaneously in London by Arthur Greenwood, Labor Minister without portfolio, and in Washing- ton by Arthur B. Purvis, chief Brit- ish purchasing agent. Flenked by three leading British military and industrial technicians, Purvis laid the proposals before Treasury Secretary Henry Morgen- hau, official co-ordirator of British and American war materiel pur- chases. Afterward Purvis that while formerly here only airplanes and other items of vital and immediate necessity, he and other British officizls were shaping a long - range program to purchase many weapons Britain for- | merly bought from only {ts own ; factories. He hinted that this might be a precaution against British plants by Nazis air raiders. May Top $2,000,000,000 While he declined to give exact { Higures, Purvis' statement that the new orders would amount to "hun- dreds of millions of dollars" indicat- ed that they might raise the British total in the United States since the war began past $2,000,000,000, He said thet tanks and field artil- lery were important items in the new program. That, he said, ex- plained the presence with him of Brig.-Gen. D. H. Pratt, and Michael Dewar, British tank experts. Also present was Admiral A. E. Evans, commander only re- withdrawn fro mthe battle fleet to advise Purvis and Canadian authorities on technical probléms of naval supply. Admiral Evans' work here, how=- ever, was sztd by Purvis not to in- volve efforts of Britain to buy old destroyers of the United States Navy.

The custom of treating the crew to beer or "splicing the main brace" is an ancient one for British Kings. The Duke and Duchess were in high spirits as they came in sight of Hamilton and completed landing arrangements, The ship was due in harbor at 2 p.m. The crew rigged up booms to land the Duke's car and trailer. Bermuda is noted for the fact that it is motorless. Flags were flown in the Duke's honor, and crowds assembled to greet him and the Duchess. It was arranged that the Duke for jand Duchess should proceed by [launch from the. Excalibur to the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club, to be received by Maj.-Gen. Sir Denis Bernard, the bachelor governor, and his sister and official hostess. A guard of honor was assembled to offer the Duke a royal salute, and a military band was present. The Duchess is to remain plain 'Your Grace" officially, and will not be styled "Your Royal Highness," like the Duke, during her stay in the Bahamas, as wife of the. new governor and commander-in-chief, it was learned from Nassau.

He added that January might be too early to reach the full igure of 3,000 airplanes, but Britain would take whatever is available then and hope for larger quantities J | later.
