Rothschild, of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Com- mittee in Ottawa, said army com- manders would appoint a liaison officer to work in co-operation iwtiletsh local civil defence author- The mobile support groups are designed to help the civil defence effort primarily On time of war, he said. But the armed forces, as has • always been the case, would provide all the emergency assis- tance required of them in event of any natural disaster such as floods, fire, and so on. In many cases this' assistance likely would include the mobile support groups. The 'military would come to the aid of the civilians at the request of the civil authority, as it always hasp In communities with a civil defence organization,- military as- sistance would be provided at the invitation of the civil defence authorities and over-all direction Of joint a:rmy;civil defence pro- jects would be supplied by civil defence leaders. Everything possible is' being done to proyide, Canada with ade- quate air defence, but as civil defence officials know, no such defence can be perfect. At present, three chains of elec- tronie warning devices are being built across the continent by Can- ada and the United States. One is 'along the U.S.-Canada boundary, tigated both accidents,. (By our Hensall correspondent) Two cars travelling north, driv- en. by Campbell Eyre, Kippen, and Gordon Coulson, RR 1, Staffa, were in collision at Highway 4, on 'the outskirts of Hensall, on Sunday., 'Eyre was making a left hand turn into General Cciach Works of Cgnada, when the cohesion occur- red. Both proceeded on and struck a tree. Damages were es: timated at $750. There were no injuries. George 'Munroe, Seaforth, mak- ing a right hand turn on High! way 84, to Main Street, Hensall, was hit in :the 'rear `of his truck 'by a car driven .by Alice Irene Colquhoun, Clinton. Damages were $200. OPP John Fordeo Ereter, another is across the middle of Canada and the .third---the DEW libe along Canada's northern- most fringe, But these lines, even when eoln, pieted, will not stop enemy bomb- ers, They will. warn of their approach end', the task of stopping them would fall to the air forces of both Canada' and the VS. Even then, it 'is considered impossible to guarantee that every bomber, each of which likely would be carrying nuclear bombs, could be stopped short of the populated areas. There are about 40 -Cities in Nor. th America where population and industry Is concentrated. If only -ten per cent of a 400-plane attacking force - a very small average compared to 'Second World War.. experiences - got through, the heart of the onto:: ent's.• productive capacity could be seriously impaired. Any potential attacker of North America is faced, of course, with retallotion that could bring him the same destruction or worse,. But it is obvious why 'officials of all western countries feel is more vital than ever to frustrate an attack by a system of passive defence, In this continuing need, to use the Deputy Co-ordin'ator's word's again: "Civil defence is now a pennon- ent partner of military defence," 0 Pair Of Mishaps In Hensall Area • kO.O.O.4o4pkootonolgo.,_,„_„ ingo.onto the open market" "Tile, present break. our hog prieeS *meat definitely would not have .occurred. had .our producers got mote hogs out onto the open- rnaticet," Mr, Mani* affirmed' "Interference from large packers in offering large under-the-table Payments to transporters have been responsible fot more hogs not coming onto the Open-market," Mr, McInnis said, r. Gardiner . Prounses Support To Egg • Prices In 1957 The Right Honourable James G. Gardiner has announced that the price sopport ',program for eggs will be continued during 1957 on the same' terms and conditioni as, applied in 1956. The support price will again be 38 cents per dozen, basis.Grade A Large eggs deliver- ed d storage points. Mr, Gardiner said that the board would, as necessary, pur- chase eggs at the• established price, plus carrying charges, and thps enable commercial buyers and marketing organizations to main- tain prices to producers in keeping with the support price 0 The growing season in southern Alberta Igo-usually about three weeks longer than in neighboring localities because of the warm Chinook winds common to the area. Canada's armed forces exist primarily to fight the enemy if he attacks„ but in recognition of the importance of civil defence, they Are now prepared to lend their aid on the civilian front if oeces-• sary. G, S. Hattep, Deputy Federal Civil Defence Co.-.orrlinator, has said: "The successful military defence' of a country is the best type of defence, but since we Are assured that no defence can be perfect and that enough bombers may be expected to penetrate our ;Mili- tary defences to cause mass de- struction, we must spare no ef- fort to build . a strong civil de- fence . .• .• • "The whole country-Ate, ser- vices no less than the civil .populk. tien-is involved in civil defence." The arMy'in particular has been Prepared to .augment civil defence. .By the 'spring of 1956 its five commands across the country were scheduled to have set up each a, mobile support group designed to meet the peculiar needs, of the area it would serve in war or natural disaster.
