eluding the most valuable wood tracts
in the country. Approximately one-
half of the bombs which might fall
in Western Canada would land in
wooded areas..
Some of the bombs were of the high
explosive type, but any which were
detonated fell in open country and,
no material damage or loss of life
occurred. The latest recovery of
parts of the weapon was at McBride:
B,C., on August 4th. To date more
than 250 recoveries have been made.'
Possible death lurks in these areas
in the . form of unexploded. anti-per-
sonnel and incendiary cannisters
dropped from these balloons which
were believed to have originated in
Japan. This menace to the camper,
trapper or resident in rural areas of
the West may remain for some time.
The self -destroying mechanism on
many of the balloons did not function
and the picric containers, designed to
explode the paper balloon or "chan-
delier," can be just as dangerous as
the unexploded bombs.
Although no definite clue has been
unearthed as to the object of these
attacks, it is believed the Japs even-
tually hoped to gain information on
weather conditions, prevailing wind
currents and behaviour of their bal-
Ioons for future systemized flights.
Research experts, inter - service
bomb disposal squads, Air Force per-
sonnel, Royal Canadian Mounted Po-
lice, civilian police, Indian trappers
and forest ,rangers, joined as a 'co-
operative force to comb the great
hinterlands of the, West to recover
and render the missile harmless; By
plane; dog team, pack horse ,and mo-
tor :they gathered detail on what is
described as the Japanese "silent, V -
"weapon "
1LC.A.F. •pilots" were stuocessful in
shooting down several of the bal-
loons. An insight into the valuable
part played by this branch of the
armed services is described in' one re -
port. '•
A balloon was sighted by an R.C.
A.F. crew, drifting towards Coal Har-
bour, B.C., • in March. The crew forc-
ed it down intact using the slipstream
of the aircraft as a steering guide.
When it caught in' a 200 -foot tree,
dynamite was used to bring it down,
The balloons, constructed of tough
paper, 33 feet in diameter and carry-
ing 19,000 cubic feet of hydrogen ga&,
were designed to operate at a height
of nearly five miles and to stay aloft
for about one week.
This was done by an ingenious sys-
tem of dropping ballast whenever the
balloon dropped below its operational
height. If the balloons went too high
gas was automatically released from
the balloon. The mechanism, with
its battery and aneroid barometers,
was so arranged to release the bombs
after all ballast had been dropped.
Faulty mechanism prevented the self -
destroying device operating' and some
balloons were recovered intact.
A•lthougii no loss of life is attribut-
ed to the balloons in Canada, bomb ( Walkerton
disposal experts consider it a miracle
that a picric container did not explode
when opened by civilians at Provost,
Alta. The' lid of the tin •had been
opened by a hot poker.
Bomb disposal experts also ran
across cases where Indians had un-
dertaken to break down the bombs.
Theyfound the balloons excellent ma-
terial for tepees and boots and the
"chandelier" a source ,of material - to
make various gadgets.
Melvin Kline, of Wimborne, Alta.,
actually saw one of the balloons
fall. It landed about 100 yards from
his farm house. The •explosion was
not great, but flames leaped 20 feet
in the air for two minutes following
the detonation. The bomb made a
crater six feet in diameter and pene-
trated to a depth of seven feet.
Meat Supplies
Greece is a country7ithout a scrap
of fresh meat, according to Philos
Philton, charge d'affaires of the Greek
legation at Ottawa. He quoted what
he termed' "conservative" figures to
indicate the condition of the coun-
try. "A report made by two economic
experts last year showed that 100 per
cent of the pigs have disappeared,
that 90 per cent of dairy cows had
been wiped out and 65 per cent of
oxen, sheep, goats and asses and' '50
per cent of the horses, mares, mules
and buffaloes," he said. Almost all
our livestock will 'have to be replac-
ed with 'reported animals and that
will take • time. The transportation
system is completely out of commis-
sion and even if animals could be
brought to Greece, they could not be
distributed. Besides. Greece is a
rocky country and there is not suf-
ficient feed for many cattle, and
practically all agricultural machinery
will have to be replaced.
