It will take time for the Mission to Complete its report Hough much study will be saved through the information available rom the formula set in 1948 he flooding of the Fraser Valley British Columbia. In the meantime he people of Manitoba have the pledge of the provincial govern nent for immediate assistance for cases of need both individual and at the municipal level this pledge represents an additional financial commitment of the Manitoba government. Already under an agreement signed with the Canadian army on the 14th of april our government agreed to accept the costs of transporting military personnel to the flood area the value of All materials supplied by the military and not returned to them the value of any tools en1 equipment which May be lost or damaged the Cost of gasoline Oil and lubricants and the Cost of billeting and feeding the troops in places where Normal military facilities Are not available. In addition the government in paying a Large sum of Money each Day for welfare of evacuees particularly those who Are hospitalized. And there have teen other for too Many to mention Here. All these will amount to n Side Rahle sum. Though it is much More Businesslike for the municipalities to Landle the work and the no problems involved in fighting the flood itself and we have asked them to do that.
