Denton Massey

Mr. MASSEY:

Order, nothing! I have the floor, and I am going to make use of it. The question I should like to ask the minister is this. Will he be prepared to make a statement within the next day or so in regard to the fate he has in mind for the sea, army and air cadets?

Lion. BROOKE CLAXTON (Minister of National Defence):

I know of no confusion across Canada with regard to the cadet situation except that which has been created in

consequence of the questions put by my hon. friends opposite. It seems to me that the question of the cadets, reserves and active forces can properly be dealt with when the estimates are reached. I could deal with those matters, if the house wished, at some length on the orders of the day, but I do submit that would not be a proper use of the orders of the day.

May I draw Your Honour's attention to the fact that I have asked this question twice, that the minister promised a reply, but that he has not given one as yet.

PC

Gordon Graydon

Progressive Conservative

Mr. GORDON GRAYDON (Peel):

I

should like to ask the Secretary of State for External Affairs whether or not the Canadian information service has been dispensed with as far as the Department of External Affairs is concerned.

Right Hon. L. S. ST. LAURENT (Secretary of State for External Affairs): I am afraid I do not fully understand the hon. member's question. I will have to read it before I venture to give an answer.
