A southwest gale swept the city and countryside Friday morning reaching 82 mph at 1 30 pm. Power outages taxed linemen, dust filled the air, and Kenyon Field records show 97 mph at 3 15 pm on Nov 24 1941, likely the regional record.

Diesel locomotives to replace steam in U S railways predicted
A transportation expert foresees steam locomotives becoming museum pieces as Diesels take over rail haulage. He notes 94 percent of freight still uses steam and coal use would fall, risking 150000 miners, while diesel expansion burdens oil supplies. A coal burning gas turbine loco design may shift the balance within five years.

King's Record: Prime Minister King Near Macdonald Time
Ottawa reports that on June 8 Mackenzie King will have served 6,939 days as prime minister, one day longer than Sir John A. Macdonald. Observers foresee King remaining in office beyond that record to see peace treaties signed, with the first conference likely in May and a later session starting March 14. The piece notes opposition strength and possible focus on taxation, credits, citizenship, the flag, and redistribution of seats, with leaders Bracken Coldwell and Low among key debaters.

Alberta Legislature Urges $1.25 Wheat Floor for Five Years
The Alberta legislature unanimously passed a motion urging the Dominion government to set a floor price of $1.25 per bushel for wheat for five years, with adjustments for production costs. The measure, proposed by W. Gilond and Ira McLaughlin, cites Western farmers' lower prices versus the United States and stresses the war effort and peacetime food needs.
