Hj Wednesday, March 29, 1944 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Bofor® you bfame your tolophon*... j*-'^ i^^^^ #* thij4eX£tfe S»in/ui4 Engineers designed the month* piece of your telephone to gire best results at one-quarter of an inch from the lips. When your lips arc farther awRy than thii, your voice is transmitted less strongly . . . less clearly. Failure to remember these simple factr accounts for the great majority of "trouble" reports. Help avoid needless service check-ups, and at the same time let tliose you talk to hear you without strain. Just remember: Talk clearly, normally, directly into the telephone, with your lips just one-quarter of an inch from the mouthpiece. Git/infU/uifStfUMtek Sfnotcing while you talk may causa distorted reception. It also preveats your hoMing: the mouthpiece di- rectly in front of luc lips. If you need to reach acioss your desk as you talk, continue to hold the telephone in atrrcct position, dose to the lips. A wall set can't come 10 you; stand or sit so that your lips arc directly in frotit of and dose to the mouth- piece. Don't "talk across" it. For clear, noite- free transmission, always keep your desk telephone uptight â€" not at or oear the hor- izontal position.

C. D. Howe's clear cut enunc- iation of the Government's civil avia- tion policy featured a week of im- portant Parliamentary woi'k. Ml. Huwe declared that in order to assure the public of the best possible air s<'rvioe and to igive returnin'g air crfvv an opportunity of lucrative po&i-war employment, ownership and ..rt'i-ntlon of Canadian air lines are to be divorced from the railways. Trans-<!;anada Air Lines, the big publicly-owned system, is a subsid- iary of the C.N.R., while most other .oir services in the Dominion form part of the Canadian Pacific Air S-. A separate government-owned company is to be foiined to operate T.O.A., which plans a new trans- continental sei-vice Ifroni Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto to the Yukon and .Aliska, via North Bay, Sault Ste. â- vturic, Port .Arthur, Winnipeg, Sas- !:;;'t00n and Edmonton. T.C.A. retains' the exclusive fran- -hir".' fur main air lines. Feeder and kvelopnient air routes will be oper- . ted by smaller privately-owned companies in which Canada's fisrhling ah'men will have a chance for exec- nuvo positions and management •"hsn thny reti rn. Because all air frp.nchisos r.re under authority of the dominion, the Pwloral Government v'ill be able to exercis^e supervision of all commercial aviation, to assure proper facilities at fair rates.

T.'HILL & CO., Umitcd MARKDALF, ONTARIO WE DE1.IVSR Cnnadia also became the first coun- try in the vroM to outline its' inter- national post-war aviation policy when Mr. Howe tabled in the House of Comiinons the Doiminion's pro(posal for joint control of internation air soi'vices through an International Air Authority. It i* well understood that some satisfectory comprttmise on air sover.>ignty must be achieved if bit- ter por,t-war national air rivalry is to be avorte<l. Illn this respect, Canada ha» given the lead in protposingr that plants of all member nation::^ have the right of free passage over other territory, the right to deliver passen- gers from, the home country and take on passengers Within any meoniber iiation, destined for the home country of the plane in transit. Thiai would permit an equitable division of inter- national air business and assttre the Dominion of a first rank place in post-war air development, to which it is entitled because of its strategic position on main air routes to Ehirope and Asia. It ^ill also mean that Oanada'n air prestijre, won by scored pt thousand's of airmen during he war, will be maintained during peace, givluK jobs i)-n international air lines to a large nunAer of men wh« have served in the war. Canada i,s to m«kc it.s own huge p88Si(inger machines for international air iTAvel.
