A remarkable achievement has been carried out in the transfer of a shell-flung factory from. Wool-

Reciprocal Trade Aswich Arsenal to Churley, in Lanca Aid To World Peace

Washington. Dec. 6.

A seven-point recovery program- me was outlined by Mr. Henry A. Wallace, Secretary for Agriculture,

In a radio talk this evening in which he appealed for the co- operation of all sections of trade to bring about a co-ordinated drive against business recession. He urged co-operation, firstly, In a revival of housing; secondly, by a revision of taxation to cyre injustice but to maintain revenue: thirdly, the maintenance of farm purchasing power by an enactment to assure an ever-normal granary; fourthly,

maintenance In the purchasing power of labour by the formulation of a sensible labour programme; fifthly. the assurance of an abundance of supply of cheap credit and capital by a healthy securities market with a view to encouraing increase in out- put and employment.

A sixth point was the provision of Government capital in case of

need to carry the burden until private capital takes over. And finally he asked for continuance of a careful approach for a revival of world peace and world trade by a reciprocal trade programme.- Reuter.

Scottish members have signed a round robin to the Secretary for war, Mr. Bore-Belisha, protesting against the proposal.
