PHONE 8 PHONE 77 NAVY'S 15,000 RADIOS Do Not Give Away Positions to the Enemy Portable radio sets for ships' crews which do not give away posi- tions to the enemy aie now in .use in Britain's Royal Navy. The Navy has received more than 15,000 sets and £25,000 raised by, voluntary subscriptions has been spent by the Admiralty in supplying them. Corvettes, minesweepers, sloops, submarines and torpedo -boats are among the small craft whose ship's companies can now listen in when off duty. As the sets are "screened", they do not re -radiate, and so do not disclose the ship's position to the enemy. The manufacturers made several modifications in a standard portable radio, giving it an exceptionally strong cabinet and fitting up the "chassis' so that the set would be able to stand up to the many bard knocks likely to be received under Service conditions. It has roughly 800 separate parts. No accumulator is necessary and the battery gives 240 hours' service. The makers have been able to issue fresh batteries at the rate of 1,000 a week, rand 10,000 valves have been sent out in the last twelve months. The Royal Air Force has been sup- plied with 5,000 sets and the Arniy has had 8,000. They are being used in many remote districts of Britain as well as in Iceland and the Middle East. The nanufaeturers carried on pro- dueing the sets throughout the "blitz" although their factory and workshops were actually razed to the ground and many essential parte and mach- ine tools destroyed. Despite these difficulties, they have been able to carry on, and there are now morn 100,000 of their sets in use. AUBURN - TTr.

J. G. Taggart, foods administrator of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board told a Dominion -Provincial confer- ence being held in Ottawa to consid- er methods of increasing butter pro- duction. Addressing one of the opening sessions of the two-day meeting Mr. Taggart said that no date has been set for the termination of payment of the subsidy which is aimed at giv- ing the farmer a better return for his product without increasing the retail price. Agriculture Minister McDonald of Nova Scotia told the meeting which was attended by federal and provin- cial agriculture officials and dairy organization representatives, that lie hoped the Dominion fertilizer sub- vention policy would be continued .to enable fanners to obtain cheaper fertilizers for use in the fall, 0. M. Shaw, chairman of the con- ference and chairman of the Agricul- tural Supplies Board, replied that provision has been made for the 'Do- minion department of agriculture to continue the subventions until the end of this year. C. E. Lackner, of Toronto, Ontar- io dairy commissioner, urged consid- eration of a campaign to induce con- sumers to conserve butter. This was as necessary as to ask producers to increase their production of butter- fat, he said. Dr. G. S, H. Barton, Federal. De- puty Minister of Agriculture, dis• cussed the diversion to butter pro- duction of other dairy product man- ufacturing facilities. He said the Dominion Department was opposed to any sharp diversion, especially from cheese to butter, although there will be some diversion. The point to be kept in mind was that while the shortage of butter was not now acute it would become so next winter. At that time cheese production would be down—as it always was -in winter—and there would be a natural diversion to but- ter, which would, relieve the situa- tion at a time when it would be more necessary. F. W. Present, feeds administra- tor, of the aa'ricultural supplier. board, told the delegates that a' sur- plus of oil cake production is being built up to help maintain the milk output when pastures are drying up. Small dairy farmers could increase the milk output of their cows by bet- ter feeding without additional farm help. L. A. Gibson of Winnipeg, Mani- toba dairy commissioner, reviewed the increase in butter production in his province within recent years while Percy Reid of Regina, Sask.. dairy commission, told how his Pro- vince is rapidly returning to an even better position in dairying than it held before the severe drought years of 1981 to 1937.
