10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondoy, October 5, 1964 Canadian First Gained In National Fire Code JIts thinking occupied the -minds and hearts of more than 30 experts over eight years. No best-seller in the conven- tional sense, it is not designed for se peed -time reading. But for municipalities (and like- minded s) ina nation of 19,000,000, with one of the world's worst fire loss rates, it is recommended study. And because hundreds of Can- adians needlessly perish by fire every year, it is truly a docu- ment for living-- a blue-print for greater community safety. For Canada, it is another "first," It is National Fire Code of Sugar Prices Sour Cubans -- WASHINGTON (AP)--Tumbl- ing sugar prices have put a squeeze on Cuban finances which, in the opinion of U.S. experts, will keep the Cuban economy in the doldrums dur- ing the next two years, This is the assessment of the impact on Cuba of the plunge from. more than 12 cents a pound to below four cents, This drop in the world market price of sugar, the island's No. 1 in- come producer, has come in Jess than a year.

MODEL CHECKLIST The authors provide the basis of a model fire prevention by- law, particularly valuable to authorities of smaller munici- palities in adapting sensible, practical regulations for pro- tection of their people, Also, of course, it offers a checklist for existing acts. Besides the Association of Canadian Fire Marshals and Commissioners, the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs, and the Canadian Federation of Mayors and Municipalities, the organizations assisting in the production include: All Canada Insurance Federation, Associa- tion of Consulting Engineers of Canada, Canadian Construction Association, Canadian Labor Congress, Canadian Underwrit- ers' Association, Engineering In- stitute of Canada and Royal Apoutares Institute of Can- ALL OVER WORLD The increasing awareness of fire prevention need across the country, the committee believes, is reflected in the book. It is in- teresting to note that in the few months since publication was d, many requests for copies have come from coun- tries all over the world. "This indicates that people are more and more thinking about fire wherever they are," says the committee. Canadians burned up an~es- \timated $155,000,000 in property in 1963, It was the greatest fire Joss of any year in their history. The 1962 total was $140,144,643. Soaring industry losses mainly accounted for the increase. Fig- ures exclude forest and federal Soaring Industry Losses Push Fire Damage High lowest death rate ever. The 1962 rate was 3.3, for 626 victims. In relation to population, the annual incidence of fires is com- ng down, The simple fact is that fires are becoming more expensive.

For the first time in many years, the lines in Belfast's back streets were drawn ly between Roman Catho- sharp! lics and Protestants, After) gam, three nights of rioting scores of persons lay injured or were un- der arrest, So far the violence has been confined to a few blocks of a predominantly Catholic and working class district in west Belfast. The weapons have been rocks and Molotov cocktails from the rioters, batons and -- canes from 'the po- ce, But the fight is in fact an- 'other chapter 'in an argument that has lasted centuries. On the one side is the demand among Roman Catholics for an end of 'the partition of Ireland. The Protestant insist on contin- ued union with Britain, It is thus an extension of the Battle of the Boyne River in Ireland in 1690 where the Pro- testant King William III de- feated the Catholic King James II and his Irish supporters.

Instead of expanding his rchases abroad, it is believed ere that Castro now will have to tighten his belt and U.S. al- lies will become a lot more re- luctant to hand over goods on credit, And if sugar becomes clearly in surplus, the Unietd States may have more success in persuading non-Communists to buy their sugar outside of Cuba.
