Mr. BALLANTYNE:
These three employees have been transferred from the Marine and Fisheries Department at Prescott to Ottawa, and we particularly need the services of these men now in connection with our shipping programme. They are expert draftsmen.

Mr. BALLANTYNE:
I was not expecting the Civil Government estimates to come up to-night, and I could not get in touch with Mr. Johnston and I have not all the details I would like to have, but I should judge, inasmuch as the number of employees this year is 125, four less than last year, that the positions at Prescott are not being filled, but I will not give that as a positive answer.
I will furnish the information at some other time.

Mr. BALLANTYNE:
There is an appropriation for the appointment of an assistant to the Superintendent of Fisheries, and two promotions in the tidal service, two in the Accounts Bratfch, and one in the Fisheries Branch.
