THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1947 b Canuck Programs Win | United States Praise i i it be publicly or privately beamed, Both systems have cricks, some the result of trying too to ape program styles south of the border, some the normal hangovers of past adolescence, some the result of commercial competition in a de- mocratic land. But cricks or no cricks, fewer cranks and a little more kudos from within and without the indus- try might have amazing morale re- sults for Canadian talent -- those folk who it is sald are always on the verge of migration to the green hills of American networks. And although Canadians may seem reluctant to lay out laurel leaves, broadcasters, editors and educators in the United States are not a bit bashful when it comes to giving this Dominion's radio shows producers and artists a "well-done" nod. In fact, the 11th American Exhi- bition of Educational Programs sponsored by the 17th Institute for Education by Radio, meeting at Ohio State University, has given CBC programs three top awards, one special citation, and thrce honor- able mentions. These, by the way were gained in competition with crack American network produc- tions, ' First award in religious programs was given for the series "The Way of the Spirit," written by Rev.

The citation said, "there is refreshing sincerity and natural- ness to these programs, proving programs can be vividly entertaining without being sensa- tional, informative without being dull." Honorable mention was won by Andrew Allan's "Stage 47" series "for jis courageous and adult radio dramas on serious themes, and high quality of writing, acting and pro- duction," Other honorable mentions were given "Story Period for Jun- iors," a school broadcast written by Fern Rahmel and produced by 'Esse Ljungh in Toronto; and "Adven- tures in Speech," written by Ger- trude PF. McCance and produced by Dan E. Cameron of Winnipeg. Radio station CJOR, Vancouver won first award for cultural pro- grams in local station classification for "March of Progress," produced by Dick Diespecker, In special class for school broad- casts, "Animals and Birds of Cana- da," written by Orlo Miller and pro- duced by Kay Stevenson of Toron- to, was granted special citation of merit. You see, maybe it's not necessary to ring bells--but it seems timely tc be more proud and less shy about Canadian radio.

HOME-OF-THE-MONTH The heavy demand for family rental accommodation has revived interest in the row or attached type of housing. Expertly planned to meet modern living requirements, and expressed in pleasing architectural form, the row type illustrated in this 'N.H.A. Home-of-the-Month selection is an attrac- tive mode of rental housing. It would qualify for double depreciation and priorities assistance under the recently-announced Dominion Government plan. Financing of similar rental housing projects may be arranged by builders or property owners under Section II of the National Housing Act which provides for loans on a basis of joint participation by Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation and an approved lending institution. All negotiations are conducted through the lending institution selected by the borrower. Working drawings and cost estimates should be obtained from a local architect. This month's plan is a composite of two-bedroom and three-bedroom anits. The, sketch shows the first floor for the two houses on the left and the second floor for the two houses or the right. Both end houses have three bedrooms.

A ee rid Surplus Horses Food Source For Europe's Hungry Swift Current, Sask. (CP). --Sixty- thousand surplus prairie horses, pushed into discard by farm mech- anization, have already stilled some hunger pangs of Europe and per- haps 100,000 more may go as -can- ned meat in the. next two years. The Saskatchewan Horse Co- operative Marketing association -- formed in 1944 when a meeting of 200 farmers Jin southwestern Sas- katchewan were told there were 450,000 surplus horses on the prairies--has shipped 17,000,000 tins of horse meat to Europe through United Nations Relief and Reha- bilitation Association. The Belgium government has bought 3,000 tons of pickled meat and UN.RR.A. has an order for 8,000,000 more tins of meat, . Only $300 was raised by passing the hat at tht first meeting at Val Marie but now the association, with plants at Swift Current, Sask. and Edmonton hgs assets of about $1,500,000 and has produced more than $3,000,000 worth of goods in the form of the tinted meat and by-products sold to fur farms, tan- neries, upholsterers, glue factories and medical laboratories. Agriculture officials had warned that the surplus horses were using pasture which could take 500,000 head of cattle. Farmers, at first unwilling to part with the horses they now found useless, finally be- gan to sell them at $5 and $10 a head and now up to $30. The association, which has pared a $150,000 Saskatchewan ' govern- ment loan down to $47,000 now has 14,500 members all of whom have been repaid their original invest- ment with interest. Members equity is more than $600,000 which in- cludes-net-proceeds-up-to December last year. Some 400 men and women are at work in the two plants of the co operative, finishing off UNRR.A. contracts and preparing' for other private contracts with European countries, now being ne- gotiated by a company official over- seas. Besides the horse meat contracts, the association has plans for a new processing plant and research lab- oratory as an auxiliary to that at Swift Current. There, more by- products would be processed lead- ing eventually to sale of pet foods and bone meal E.coli CROSSWORD - - - By Eugene Sheffer HORIZONTAL 45. fastidious 1. whitemerve 48.

ToDAY'S ACHIEVEMENTS in-agriculture pro- duction are matched by those in manufactur- ing and the development of natural resources --creating new opportunities for Canadians in every sphere of activity surpassing those of any previous peacetime period. While our world importance as a food pro. ducer continues to grow, we have become also one of the greatest of industrial and commer- cial countries, with peacetime accomplishments maintaining our new war-won position, With the raliway opening the West in the 80's, the development of the famous wheats, Red Fife and Marquis, and the extension of the grain-growing area steadily north, Canada became the world's great wheat exporter. A Nourishing agriculture has always been the basis of Canada's expanding economy. 'First farmer was Cham. plain's Louis Hebert. Ontario's great agricultural development began with the arrival of the U.E. Loyalists. Canadian farmers answered the chal. lenge of World War II by producing more food than ever for our allies. While maintaining the vital wheat yield, they supplied a great new out. put of coarse grains, fodder crops and 15. peel 16. salter 18. delicious dri oil-bearing seeds--and achieved spec. tacular increases in meats, dairy prod. ucts and eggs. 53. masculine IMPORTED CRISP NEW .

The primary need is farm research, soil improve- ment, war on weeds and better seed grain. Thus with better profits, farm living standards can be raised and young people attracted to rural Canada rather than lost as emigrants. Organized farmers are making the farm Juture much more secure."
