Difficult
Shortages
Coming
up
OTTAWA
(CP)
The
Trade
Department
said
yesterday
that
prospective
Canadian
home
owners
will
have
trouble
building
new
houses
ln
1951.
Shortages
are
likely
for
such
essential
home-building
items
as
copper
tubing,
steel
pipe
and
fittings,
hot
water
storage
tanks
and
wire
nails
and
spikes.
The
department
outlined
prospects
for
building
materials
in
a
white
paper
tabled
in
the
House
of
Commons
by
George
Mcllraith,
Parliamentary
assistant
to
Minister
of
Trade
Howe.
"Full
realization
of
1951
construction
intentions
is
likely
to
be
hampered
by
shortages
of
key
building
materials,"
said
the
report.
"The
average
house
will
probably
take
longer
to

completion
of

may

TORONTO

Solon

leader,

that

"It

clear
that
the

policy
Is

Low
said.
This
was
what
the

wanted
because
they
knew
that
Inflation
would
sap
the
strength
of

undermine
them
to

OTTAWA
(Special
to
Daily
News)
Amendments
to
the
Canadian
Citizenship
Act
were
Introduced
yesterday
for
sec-end
reading
by
Hon.
W.
E.
Karris,
minister
of
citizenship
and
immigration.
The
new
act
enlarges
the
provisions
under
which
Canadian
citizenship
can
be
revoked,
particularly
ln
cases
where
a
naturalized
citizen
has
returned
to
his
country
of
origin
or
has
been
convicted
of
an
offence
Involving
disloyalty.
Speeches
supporting
the
bill
and
condemning
pro-communist
activity
were
made
by
Liberals
and
Conservatives
and
members
of
the
CCF.
APPLEWHAITE
Edward
T.
Applewhaite,
Liberal,
Skeena,
spoke
in
somewhat
different
vein,
stating
that
he
felt
any
Liberal
government
must
have
been
reluctant
to
admit
the
need
for
such
an
act
as
any
Liberal
member
would
be
reluctant
to
admit
the
need
for
supporting
it.
However,
communist
activity
had
been
such
that
it
was
necessary
for
Can-!
ada
to
take
steps
to
protect
herself.
Applewhaite
stated
the
principle
of
the
bill
Is
not
new
but
its
provisions
are
becoming
broader
all
the
time
due
to
the
activities
of
those
commonly
described
as
subversive
but
for
which
the
Skeena
member
pre
ferred
the
word
"traitors."
TODAY'S

Applewhaite
outlined
the
value
placed
for
years
upon
the
status
of

"Canadian

ana

,
in

cases,

placed
as
high
a
value
on

as

although
he
regretted
it
had
not
been
the
Canadian
practice
sufficiently
to
emphasize
this
value
at
the
time
of

While
expressing
sympathy
with
the
need

Intent
of
the
proposed
legislation,
Applewhaite
warned
against
succumbing
to

fear
which
might
result
in

hunts,

Admitting
that
the
legislation
provides
for
a
hearing
in
every
case
before
citizenship
can
be
revoked,
the
Skeena
member
said
he
did
not

to
see
an
orgy
of
such
hearings
based
only
on
suspicion
across
