The area is so vast and so teem- ing with blast furnaces, factories and plants of all sorts that "even if | the Germans completely knocked down one of the industrial sections of Birmingham itself, the damage still would be slight. Birmingham proper has been hit --and hit hard--but except for its satellite neighbor, Coventry, 18 miles away, most of the Midland in- dustrial centres have not been threatened. Birmingham possibly has suffer- ed even worse than Coventry from waves of night raiders. A big church has been blasted, hotels blown out and great stores, including some of the best in Engl- end, damaged. But on the surface it is less ap- parent, for Birmingham is big and sprawling and modern. While the heart ot middle-aged Coventry and 18th century Bristol burned out, most of Birmingham's modern buildings stand. Some of her big buildings are re- duced to shells, however, others have been sheered half away, and rows of houses and small shops have been blasted. At a rough estimate the city has 10,000 to 15,000 homeless and an equal number whose jobs have been destroyed. This is from a popula- tion of well over 1,000,000. 'Transportation rapidly is being restored to normal. There is no scarcity of food. In front of the bombed and burned tables on hucksters' carts. Night rdiders have concentrated on the business and shppping dis. tricts. In -workers' homes which surround these sections the heaviest casualties have occurred. People are going about their work as normally as possible under the conditions. 4 BEARS BEAT CAPS Hershey, Pa, Dec. 9--Hershey Bears made it three. straight by beating Indianapolis Capitals 4-2 in an American Hockey League game here Saturday: night, "10f a two-way address system. 14-16 ical Units, the Corps ON THE AIR TORONTO STATIONS CFRB, 690k.

Commindo on Wheels on Great Trek in S. Africa A mechanical convoy three miles | long has begun a great trek of the | Union of Scuth Africa. In its tour, | the convoy will cover 2500 miles in five weeks. In the convey are 200 vehicles | and accompanying is a miniature | aftny consisting of details from the | Tank Corps, the Armoured Car | Corps, Mechanized Infantry, Med- of Signals, | "Q' Services, "T" Services, Artil- | lery and a searchlight section.

At every town on the route are military par- ades and displays. Bvenings are given over to social gatherings, movie shows and a military band of eighty players which also accom- panies the convoy, Here are a few miscellaneous items from Pretoria: South Africa is to have its Home Guard, The Guard consists of two sections; (a) A Civilian Protective Service concerning itself mainly with air raid precaution work; (b) A National Volunteer Brigade to be used for military and police in- ternal security duties. French citizens, meeting in Johannesburg, established an As- sociation of the Friends of Free France which will act under in- structions from General de Gaulle. The aims of the Association are tu collect funds for transfer to Gen- eral de Gaulle; to maintain the free French forces; to assist all French- men to join the forces. South Africa is becoming an im- portant source of iron ore for Great Britain. Exports from the Union to Great Britain rose in August from zero to 173,037 tons. Accora- ing to a statement from the South African Department of Mines, tne Union has 6,000,000 tons of first- class iron ore around Rustenburg and Pretorfy, F. C. Sturrock, Minister of Rail- ways and Harbors, stated in a speech at Grahamstown that econ- omically South Africa had never been sounder than today, Industry was being given an impetus equal to 20 years of norma) development.

PLEAD GUILTY ON LIQUOR CHARGE Two People Assessed Fine and Cost By Magistrate Mabel E. Rice, 84 Centre street, pleaded guilty this morning in Oshawa police court to a charge of having liquor illegally. Defence counsel stated that the woman's son has been visiting his mother during week-ends 'since his dis- charge from the army and had left a quantity of liquor with his mo- ther due to her physical condition. A partially filled bottle of whiskey, allegedly found in Mrs, Rice's par- lor was displayed in court. His Worship, Magistrate Ebbs fined Mrs, Rice $10 and costs with the option of ten days in the county jail, and her place of residence was declared a public place for a period of one year. Charles Ford appeared on a charge of nron-support of his wife and three children, Mrs. Flora Ford, his wife, who is living at 165 Annis street, stated in evidence that she had obtained a separation from Mr, Ferd in 1835 and that he had contributed to the support of the family until last year when payments ceased.

' Royal Canadian Mounted Police disclosed the telegraphing scheme last night after they had raided a printing plant in nearby Verdun. Five men were arrested, two of them after police had found them in the committee-room of J. Adhemar Raynault, one of the mayoralty can- didates. They were charged with being in possession of fake cards. As voters fiocked into polling booths, they were warned in a state- ment {from Cily Clerk Etienne Gau- thier that false registration cards were in circulation, and that the penalty for carrying such a card was three years imprisonment under a section of the War Measures Act. At the same time, all returning officers and their assistants were warned to be on the watch for bogus cards, aistinguishable from genuine certificates by minor print- ing variations. Last week, city police announced that officers would be stationed outside the polling booths and that voters might be called upon to produce their national regis- tration cards. The arrests were made following an R.CMP. raid on a printing { plant in nearby Verdun, where po- seid they found 3,000 completed [ake cards, and 4,000 cards printed on one side only. An additional 5,000 cards were found at the home of one of those arrested. The men taken into custody at the printing plant were Edouard Leduc, owner of the press, J. O. Le- { mire and Germain Cayer. Later, J. Oscar Lefebire and Lionel Rioux were arrested after they had een taken from Raynault's committee- room for questioning. Pclice said that Lemire and Cayer drove up in a car and asked for de- livery of the cards as R.C.M.P. of- | lice ments made by the three men led to the hunt for Lefebvre and Rioux. About 20,000 bogus cards had been ordered, leaving several thousand still unaccounted for. The rather quiet campaign for the office left vacant by Camillien Houde, now in an internment camp for opposing national registration, ute development. Candidates for the Ald. Oscar Belisle, Charlemagne Landry, Josepn Mercure, J. J. Pen- | verne, Ald. Dave Rochon, Leon Tre. panier, Leonard Trepanier, and Raoul Trepanier. The trepaniers are not related. Aside from the candidates for the $10,000-a-year 'mayoralty position, candidates are contesting 24 council seats to fill vacancies left by accla- mations to the city's new 99-man council, The government of 99 councilmen, under the jurisdiction of the Que- bec . Municipal Commission which | has taken over financial administra- tion of the city, supercedes the 35- alderman system in effect since 1921. Under the new plan, 33 councillors are chosen by proprietors alone, 33 by proprietors and tenants combin- ed, and the remaining 33 are nomin- ated by representative public bodies in the city.
