Canada Opens Optical Plan! ForWarWork By HUGH NEWTON . TORONTO, Ont, U. The world'! finest optical glass Is be ing produced in Toronto as Can ada, for the first time in its his tory, has engaged in the manu facture of this product. . This month a $6,800,000 plant of Research Enterprise, Ltd, at Leaside, a suburb of Toronto, went into production. When asked about the compar- able quality of the present Ger man product, a plant official de clared that there was no German glass of recent vintage immedi ately available for comparison, but that recent examination 01 cap- tured Nazi military optical equip ment had shown that the German product had noticeably fallen off in recent montns. The five-acre plant in which the glass is being produced as re cently as last autumn was nothing more than a dream of a handful of Canadian industrialists and scien tists. " For many months, before and since the start of tne war, (Jan. ada top scientists had been woijji-.K together secretly. The University of Toronto's famous Canadian Resarch Institute, at one time headed by Lieut.-Gen. An- drew McNaughton, now com mander of the Canadian Corps in Britain, was the center of this work, and when the war broke all efforts and thought, were directed toward experiments which would aid the defense of Canada. At first this work was centered upon the development of secret British devices, such as those used for submarine and aircraft de fense. Last fall, however, Britain and American plants were becoming taxed to the limit with war orders and Britain's position was precari ous under heavy bombing, i The manufacture of secret de vices had to be transplanted to a large extent and Canada began Its third great Industrial expansion since the start of the war. One of the plants planned by the govern ment was Research Enterprises, Ltd. J: The heavy industrialized sub urb of Leaside was selected as the lite and building was started in September, 1940. By the middle of May, 1941, there' stood on that ground a . modern, streamlined five-acre war factory. According to the Canadian mu nition ministry, this is the only plant in the world built expressly for production of scientific war In struments. ' The raw materials go through a eomplictated process of manufac ture to the production of as fine a lens and as clear a piece of optical last as can be obtained anywhere. Here, cloistered from the outer world is Britain's greatest defen- live weapon the hush-hush radio-locator. Here, day and night in country's electrical geniuses are closeted with a $40,000,000 or der for the fog-piercing range finder. makejt.a SUMMER . . ft f THE EAST INVITES YOU Plan ta fa UNION PACIFIC The entire east Is within ear?, convenient reach through two Union Pacific oatawaya -Chicago and SI.
