22 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Pridey, Apri 30, 1965 DEALERS GET REVERSE OF EXPECTED EASING OF CONDITIONS Labor Tightens Up U.K. Credit Situation | womw:x:;:: By JOSEPH MacSWEEN LONDON (CP) -- The Labor government turned the screw on Britain's already tight credit Thursday -- a shock move that came just as dealers were ex- It was the second tough step in as many days by Prime Minister Wilson's administra- tion.in its battle for financial stability and industrial effic-) ciency. The Bank of England an- nounced it is pulling in £90,000,- 000 ($270,000,000) from 11 clear- ing banks under a "special de- posits" device used for the first and only previous time by a Conservative government in) 960 Use of the deflationary) weapon simply means it will be} that much harder for compan-} jes and individuals to borrow) money from banks at a time of] year when borrowing tends to be brisk. POUND STRONGER | Following the announcement, | share prices were slashed on) the stock market but signifi-| cantly enough, the pound ster-' ling was stronger. One of Wil- son's main aims has been to strengthen sterling in interna: tional dealings. mee Dealers who had been hoping} for a small cut in the bank) rate -- increased to a record! seven per cent from five after Wilson took power last October) --were staggered by the news that credit was to be squeezed tighter still, The news reached dealers at the same time as weekly announcements on the| bank rate. A Bank of England spokes- man said the move was made 'in view of the sharp increase in bank advances last month."

The Defence Research Board, RCAF, transport department, U.S. Army and the University of Michigan co-operated in pro- ject Bold Survey, and the re- sults have just been published in a huge, 819-page report by the university. The main conclusion; 'The ability to obtain an interpret- able picture of the sea ice dur- ing total darkness now makes it possible to conduct sea ice) reconnaissance the year round." The "picture' was obtained by infra-red (heat) sensors car- ried in an RCAF Argus patrol plane which covered--in com- plete darkness -- most of the) Canadian Arctic Archipelago) and a segment of the Arctic Ocean up to the North Pole. PATH SHOWED : Trevor Harwood, chief of the geophysical research section of the Defence Research Board| who participated in the pro-/ ject, said in an interview that) the results won't apply merely to sea ice. For instance, a path trampled down in the snow at Alert on northern Ellesmere Island showed up clearly on the infra- red film, which looks somewhat like the negative of a standard photograph. This means, Mr. Harwood said, that it is possible to de- tect any human activity or dis- turbance on a snow - covered surface such as the wheel or ski marks of an aircraft The survey also covered part of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and some lakes in southern Canada Infra-red film showed clearly icebergs with rings of rela- tively warm water around them caused by the rocking of the *bergs. The film even distin- guished between thin and thick ice.
