Mr. Howe was commenting on statements contained in the de fence production department's an- nual report for 1955, tabled Tues- day in the Commons The report said that, as a result of work on 'Velvet Glove," the Canadian-developed missile, "valu able experience has been gained by the government, its contractors and by service evaluation teams A fully developed missile produc: | tion complex has thus been added to the defence production base.' The report did not elaborate Neither did Mr. Howe. PRELIMINARY WORK However, , it was learned last month that preliminary work has already begun in Canada on pro- duction of an American-developed air-to-air guided missile for the RCAF, under the direction of A.V.| Roe (Canada) Ltd., of Malton, Ont. The missile frame is to be made by Canadair Ltd., of Montreal and the electronic gear, which guides the missile, by Canadian Westing- house Ltd., of Hamilton. The Velvet Glove was developed after five years of Canadian re-| search and is understood to have _ cost millions. Informants say t defence department decided pass over the Canadian product because U.S. air-to-air missiles al-| ready in production have a far greater range The report said Canadian indus try supplied 96 per cent of 1955 defence production compared he to only 89 per cent in 1954.
