THE HAILEYBURIAN THURS., OCTOBER 22nd; 1953 Page Four Canada Prepares To Deal With Disaster FARM AND FOREST BATTLEGROUNDS Just as modern war has spread from field forces to civil commu- nities, the line of defence has broadened, say Canadian defense experts to embrace all sections of the country--not only thosein crowded, potential-target areas. The farmer, most of all, has an important role to play in any measures which Canada may have to take to fight off attack. Destruction of sources of sup- ply for fighting forces is a tech- nique already being employed effectively in areas where war flames, evennow. Any assault on Canada, according to the experts, would certainly give priority to sections which sustain the pop- ulation with food, as well as to sites of great' arms production plants and industrial zones gener- ally. The potential dangers of bio- logical and chemical warfare have already been explained, with their peculiar significances to those who operate farms and who live outside the larger communities. There is still another possible threat to such places--incendiar- ism. When we think of arson-- the deliberate firing of property--we usually think of such acts as di- rected against stores of materials, key installations, production machinery, transportation, etc. But the Civil Defence authorities believe that an enemy might at- tack our farms and forests as well as our industries and defence establishments, in. an effort to cripple our resources and under- mine our whole economy. Bush Fires The havoc which forest fires cause is, unhappily, too well known to Canadians, from peace- time experience. They will have no difficulty in visualizing the ter- ror and destruction which could be spread, in wartime, by the de- liberate burning of our timber lands. Those charged with our national security urge all who - live in or near wooded areas to be particularly watchful should the threat of war draw _ nearer. Of course, thy count on them for vigilance in peacetime, too, for fires can start--and most often do--from sheer carelessness.

Fire will uot spread in standing crops ex igi'. Vg Be cept during the period between ripening and harvesting, and then only in dry weather. At these times, standing crops might be a target for incendiarism. At- tempts might be made, too, on stored grains and loss of basic cereals and provender would not only be a calamity for the farm- ers but, if widespread, would constitute a national disaster of the greatest, magnitude. Farming people, therefore, are counted upon by those setting up our organizations for dealing with trouble, no matter where or when or IF it comes, to do their share in defending this land and in foiling activities of this sort which may well be decisive factors in our sheer survival. 'Farm Fighters Ottawa officials and their work- ing partners in all the provinces are heartened by the interest be- ing shown in rural communities in the subject of civil defence and in measures which many of our smaller places are taking to en- sure that they play a worthwhile role if ever Canada is in danger. They have expressed admira- tion for those villages and sec- tions where, already, civil de- fence services have been set up to fulfil the function of mutual aid and reception areas, in support of the bigger communities which may be expected to undergo direct attack. But, the farmer may find that war has ome right into his own barnyard. He must, say the. ex- perts, be constantly on, guard to ensure that no one tampers with his holdings or endangers his own family, stock or yield: He, as a Canadian, is an important mem- ber of the national army defend- ing our very soil and is counted upon, with the sturdiness which marks him as our prime producer, to do his share in ensuring the national safety and, if need be. backing up our disaster services with posititve action. Scouts Hear Lecture on Guns On Tuesday, October 6th, the Haieybury Boy Scouts were en- tertained with a short lecture on guns, conducted by George Byles. The object of the lecture was to show that whenever you point a gun at anything you mean to kill it, whether it be man or beast. fhe fundamentals of a gun, such as cleaning, loading and us- ing the gights were briefly ex- plained while the more important things such as the correct way to carry a gun through the bush and over a fence were taken into consideration. Mr. Byles ended his lecture with an explanation and the naming of the parts of a bullet. ( c The Scouts were greatly inter- ested in this lecture and decided to have a competition for marks- man badges in the near future. --David Tuer.

Stubbora.Fire After an intensive program during Fite Prevention Week, the Haileybury fire brigade made two calls last week. Both causes of the fires were points which were stressed by. the fire " chief in his annual appeal and he has asked that "citizens should' not relax their watchfulness to avoid unnecessary fires." On Saturday afternoon at 2:20 the brigade answered a call fro~ the home of John Fortin on Al- bert street where chilldren had been playing with matches and 'set fire to the woodshed. It took firemen some time to put the blaze out as the shed was filled with birch wood and a wind was blowing. On Sunday morning at 11:50 a chimney fire at the home of Mrs. Maud Mawhinney on Niven St for lunch which, was provided. by... was quickly extinguished with no damage.
