Bg is for them that the books are bpen. "Their subscriptions, in vast num- bers, not only register this nation's patriotic unity, but help ensure a wider and healthier wartime and post-war distribution of purchasing power in the form of earnings. "Safe and income earnings invest. ment though your subscription is, it is in another sense the greatest, soundest investment opportunity you could seize an investment in human freedom for you and your "children. "In this hour we fight to save all we have from destruction, our- selves from enslavement. We fight for the precious, priceless, right to Hve our lives in liberty. "It is for this country, this free- dom, that our men in arms are risking, giving their lives. In the air, cn the sea, and on the land. Those of us who do not bear arms must bear our dollars to the colors to support those who do. "Largest subscribers, institutions, eorporations, responded quickly and encouragingly -- sure evidence of their sense of safe investment value as well as their sense of patriotic duty. "To those of more modest means, as to all Canadians, I stress this lemn appeal: Recruit your earn- gs, your savings, quickly to the jolors. Buy War Loan bonds. Invest how in human freedom." REWOVE BOMB NEAR ST. PAUL'S (Continued from Page 1) es in St. Paul's, but for the first e in many years there were no pervices. In mid-afternoon two tandem- ptohed trucks finally dragged out the bomb. It was no dud. Its eight-foot Jength was fitted with a profusion pf fuses which made it dangerous even to touch. Gently it was loaded on to a gruck, and Lt. Davies drove it away, with red flags waving to warn of danger. Tt blasted out a 100-foot crater in the marsh where it was set off. The Ministry of Home Security said "only the courage and tenacity of the officer and his non-coms and men prevented St. Paul's being levelled to the ground." Elatedly telling of a new method of combatting these bombs--one of which damaged Buckingham Pal. ace, Tuesday, after lying unexplod- ed for three days--the News Chron- cle said: "Our scientists have found an ' answer to that terrible weapon, the time bomb which Hitler has used against St. Paul's Cathedral and ingham Palace and other Lon- lon public buildings. "Working in hidden Government laboratories the experts have pro- guced an apparatus which halts the action of the bomb. The bomb then can be safely removed for disman- ling. "Only volunteers hand-nicked for their coolness under the menace of sudden death are allowed to ap- proach these bombs." RAF.

The smashing bombing attack on the port of Antwerp was hailed as a vital blow, because the sea port has been described by British lead- ers as "a dagger pointed at the heart of England."

Wreak Havoc on Docks Huge quantities of bombs smash- ed into the Nazi concentrations of ships and supplies at Antwerp, Os- tend, Flushing, Dunkirk, Calais and Boulogne in a continuation of the night-after-night aerial assaults, In Germany, it was added, sup- ply depots at Osnabruck, Mann- heim, Aachen, Hamm and Krefeld were bombed, as well as the Nazi- held Belgian capital of Brussels, through which the Germans are said to be moving a great part of their railroad traffic to the Chan- nel bases. Railroad communications were said to have been blasted at Rheine, Ahaus, Sundern, Husten and West- hofen. The Air Ministry told of "much damage" to the Antwerp docks, and said: "Havoc was caused to a vast net- work of docks, warehouses and patrol sheds on the banks of the Scheldt (river) and shipping lying in the stream as large forces of our bombers dropped nearly forty tons of high-explosives and more lasting from 11 o'clock until 1:30 a.m. today." The British bombers attacked Antwerp in waves, it was explained, and one pilot reported that flames from the dock fires were visible thirty miles away. CLAINS PAINT ILS TYPHOID OTHER GERMS Electrical Weaving and Synthetic Quinine Are Described Detroit, Sept. 16. -- Four new chemical miracles -- wall paint which kills disease germs, a terrific explosive, electrical weaving and the first step in synthetic quinine from oil wells--were announced to the American Chemical Society. The antiseptic paints are made with a little chlorine or iodine, re- sult of thousands of experiments. These paints kill typhoid and some other germs for nine weeks and re- tain some killing power after six years on the wall. They kill molds and yeasts. Uses are children's rooms, hospitals and damp places like breweries, where molds and yeasts spoil beer. The explosive is a combination of butadiene, from which Germany makes synthetic rubber, and ozone. A laboratory explosion showed it is terrific. A little exploded in a metal apparatus. Fifteen feet away stood a water bottle. A bit of metal drilled two clean holes, one through each side of the bottle, something no bullet could do ordinarily. The electrical weaving machine makes the velvet type of fabrics. Velvet is ordinarily made by sewing in threads and cutting off their ends like mown grass. In the new way electrostatic forces pick up short threads, and shoot them like arrows, to stand on their heads, their tips sticking into a new type of resin coating the base fabric. The resin will wash and iron after drying and the electricity sticks each thread arrow separately like the hairs on the head.

"Don't you think you are getting a little bit old for driving," Magis- trate Ebbs asked Walter Locie. the acused. The latter murmured that he was "all right." "You were not right this time," reflected His Worship, pointing out that a boy had been injured and that it might have been serious. Locie disclosed that he usually didn't drive very far, just the eleven miles into Trenton, and then back again. He was going farther this "day, he admitted, being on his way with his wife and another couple to Markham. Bombed Liner Was Armed Cruiser In Last Great War Montreal, Sept. 14.--The liner Em- press of Asia, announced in Tokio Saturday to have been accidentally bombed by Japanese naval flyers. saw service in the First Great War as an armed auxiliary cruiser and a troop transport. Officials of Canadian Pacific Steamships, Limited, owners of the 16,909-ton vessel, sald the Empress participated in the First Great War in the chase of the German raider Emden and took part in bombard- ment of Turkish ports. After the war, in 1919, she carried Canadian troops back from Europe. Most of the 580-foot craft's war work was on the Pacific patrol, but she moved into the Atlantic to as- sist in the movement of United States troops to France. Early in the conflict the Empress of Asia and a sister ship, the Empress of Russia, defended Aden, in the Gulf of Aden, for more than a month. The Empress of Asia was launch- ed at Glasgow in 1913 and always has operated in the Pacific. Her port of registry is Vancouver.' The Tokio announcement, from the Japanese Admiralty, sald naval flyers accidentally dropped a test bomb on the vessel, injuring four Chinese crewmen, | offices and | engaged in manoeuvres | miles southeast of Yokohama Air Blitzkrieg Fails To Subdue Londoners Officials Charge Hitler with Murdergus Attempt to Drive A and the King From London; But Evidences of Stout Morale and Cold Anger Seen. London, Sept. 16.--Embattled Bri- tain, confident of its preparedness, Friday night calmly awaited Adolf Hitler's expected invasion attempt with King George and Queen Eliza- beth bound closer than ever to their subjects by the common experience of air bombardment. © The German plan, according to Nazi newspapers, is to drive a wedge between the Royal family and the people by driving the Royal family out of London, but it has produced a contrary effect. The man in the street, especially the man who lost his home, now feels -- since Thursday's air attack on Buckingham Palace -- that the King and Queen have faced the same dangers as himself. The nation's affection for King George and Queen Elizabeth is now stronger than ever. Few here doubt that Hitler's policy now is undisguised terror -- that having failed to knock out the Royal Air Force, he is trying to win the war by breaking Britain's will. Hospitals, churches, museums and quiet residential districts, as well as military targets, have felt the sting of bombardment. The Germans have rained on Lon- | don high explosives, incendiaries, "hreadbaskets," oil bombs and deep- ly penetrating aerial torpedoes. Thousands of Londoners know what it is to dive face down into the streets -- as many did in the West End this afternoon -- when screamer bombs shrieked down. Thousands know what it means to hurry from their beds and put out incendiaries in their dwellings or leave their homes because of unexploded time bombs nearby. Yet so far there is no sign of Lon- don's spirit flagging. The people are tired and obvious- ly don't like the bombings, but this usually mild-tempered race is be- coming more and more angry and determined. Men are carrying on in their factories despite re- peated alarms and the occasional difficulties of going to and from work. JAPANESE PLANE DROPS LIVE BOM ON CPR. LINER | Ministry of the Navy Says Empress of Asia Mis. taken for Target Tokio, Sept. 16.--A Japanese plane dropped a bomb on the Canadian of Asia 50 to- day, damaging the ship slightly and injuring four Chinese members of the crew. Passengers were described as in "near panic" after the bombings, but calm was restored when it appeared the incident would not be repeated. The master of the ship had ordered lifeboats made ready as a precau- tionary measure. The Empress of Asia continued its voyage and arrived at Yokohama, where damage to its side was ap- parent to observers. A statement by the Ministry of the Navy said that the plane had mistaken the liner for a target and it was admitted that a small prac- tice bomb had been dropped. It was not expected here that there would be serious repercussions. and it was believed that the bombing would be regarded as an accident. The navy at once sent surgeons and official representatives aboard to give what assistance they could and express prompt apologies. The incident occurred while a naval squadron was in bombing practice off Oshima island. The Empress of Asia, painted a war-time grey, has been armed since the outbreak of war. It was not known whether her guns fired on the plane. The vessel carried 103 passengers. small live Pacific liner Empress Canada Rejoices King, Queen Safe Ottawa, Sept. 16. -- No enemy act could have more stirred the hearts of every part of the British Com- monwealth = than = the deliberate bombing of Buckingham Palac> Thursday by a Nazi airman, Prime Minister Mackenzie King said in a message to King George VI and Queen Elizabeth on Friday last. Text of the Prime Minister's tele. gram to Their Majesties follows: "My colleagues and I join with the people of Canada in expressing heartfeit gratitude to Providence for the preservation of Your Majesties' lives against the Nazi attack of which we have just learned. No enemy act could have served more completely to stir the heart of every part of the British Commenwealtin than one so clearly designed to de- stroy .the lives of their King and Queen." + a . Auto Sensation In Dodge Liner Officials Hint Toronto, Sept. 16 -- Although the new Dodge Luxury Liner Special is shrouded in mystery, it is rum- ored that it will offer as standard equipment an innovation in its price range which will make driving as easy as walking. The word has leaked out that this "revolutionary feature" is in some way concerned with added ease in driving, making it as effortless for the novice as for the experienced driver, Questioned as to the exact nature of this change, Chrysler officials have been reluctant to elaborate on it. "You can say," they pointed out, "that the new feature has never before been incorporated as stand- ard equipment on a Canadian auto- mobile, that it has been in process of development for a number of years, and that it has reached per- fection in time to become what we feel sure will be an automobile sen. sation of 1941."

CHALLENGES IRISH HORSE SHOE GAME (Continued from Page 1) which had been prepared in the form of a scroll, engrossed with the Regimental crest, the engrossing having been done by Quartermaster Sergeant W. Longbottom. The challenge prepared by Lt. J. C. Anderson, mayor of Oshawa, read as follows: "IN THE MATTER of a challenge of supreme skill in the Ancient Art of Horse Shoes. "To the Second Battalion, "Irish Regiment, "Niagara Camp, Ontario. "WHEREAS by devious means and idle rumour it has come to the attention of the 2nd Battalion, On- tario Regiment, that the 2nd Bat- talion, Irish Regiment, considers its strength contains men and officers of exceptional skill and bravery in the ancient and honorable art of Horse Shoes. "AND WHEREAS the 2nd Bat- talion, Ontario Regiment. thereby considers its honor has been serious- ly impugned and is therefore al stake. "THEREFORE TAKE NOTICE. "THAT the 2nd Battalion, Ontario Regiment, hereby issues forthwith a challenge to the 2nd Battalion, Irish Regiment, to select a team of any rank to uphold its honor, such challenge to be accepted at any time up to 1200 hours, Wednesday, 18th, of September by the 2nd Battalion, Irish Regiment replying hereto in such manner as it deems proper. "AND IN DEFAULT OF such ac- ceptance, the 2nd Battalion, Irish Regiment, are expected to forever after hold their peace and the blot upon the escutcheon of the 2nd Bat- talion, Ontario Regiment, will be thereby wiped out. "Issued from Headquarters, 2nd Bn, Ontario Regiment, this 13th day of September, A.D. 1940, by Lieut.- Col. R. B. Smith, V.D., Officer Com- manding, 2nd Bn. Ontario Regi- ment." After the scroll had been read-by the Irish Regiment orderly officer, Lt. Col. L. H. Nellis, D.S.O, RM.C, commanding officer of the unit, in- structed that the challenge would be received and a proper reply deliver- ed in dle course. It is fully expected that the chal- | lenge will be accepted and at pres- ent writing Ontario Regiment men and officers are unanimously back- ing their team to triumph in the anticipated duel. (Don't tell the Irish, but Dean McLaughlin, horseshoe champion ol Ontario in 1939 and runner-up for the title this year, is on the camp strength of the Ontario Regiment along with his brother, who rates nearly as high as Dean when it comes to the barnyard golf game.) Apart from the matter of dealing with the Irish, today is anything but a jinx day in camp, and Battai- ion Paymaster, Lieut. A. Kidd, is the most popular officer in the lines to- day for he is paying all men a por- tion of the pay which they will re- ceive for their camp stay. Whitby Company retained poss- ession of the pennant for the best showing in drill and on the parade ground when it was awarded.late yesterda;. Other companies, par- | ticularly A Company were close on their heels. That Ontario Regiment are not entirely content to serve merely as members of the militia was revealed Wednesday, Lt. P. G. Mc- ronto for examination for enlist- ment with the R.C.AF. and today two privates, Pte. H. Grice, of Osh- awa and Pte. R. L. Harris, of Whit- by, were given special leaves for the same purpose. Boomerang For Reporter Your reporter has joined the Bat- talion Orderly Room staff with the rank of sergeant and that promotion caused him to 'eat crow" aplenty today when Thursday's papers reached camp. In the story which appeared Thursday, we stated that everybody was acquiring a good tan except the orderly room staff and added the epithet "the sissies." To- day that term is a verbal boomerang of unexpected power but there's nothing to do but carry on so here we are. Whitby Company is duty company today and among the potato peeling detail was none other than Private Lawrence Agg, Councillor Agg, well- known merchant, when not wearing khaki. His peelings were no thicker than any of his unhappy comrades. Because today is payday both for the Ontario Regiment and the C.A. S.F. forces in camp the Ontario Re- giment provost squad under Provost Sergt. "Scotty" Gunn has been augmented. To date the provost ser- geant has carried on with only two: men on M.P. detail, Private Tom Hele and George Makarchuk but to- | day Privates "Slim" Johnson, well- known Oshawa sportsman, and John ! Moore also were detailed as M.P.'s. | Everyone .in the M.P, detail stands | well over six feet and in size, if nothing else, command the respect of all men. Incidentally Provost Sergeant Gunn had high commendation for the general behaviour of the Osh- awa men when they are outside the camp. The Ontario Battalion sold- fers are the quietest and most order- ly of all the units in the camp, the provost declares.
