A de- cade or two ago this 'branch of the crane family was pronounced on the verge of extinction. In spite of- its extreme rarity today, vari- ous wildlife organizations are 'making an effort to find the pos- 'sible seven or eight nests, to guard them and so start the grus amerl- cana, to give the whooping crane its sclentific name, on the road to survival, says The Edmonton Journal. The bird is the largest known in the Dominfon. It winters In "Texas and nests in'northern marsh- lands of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba during late May, June and July. The whooping crane {8 pure 'white with black wing tips. and is recognized by its very long legs. It stands four feet high, Only those who frequent the north country 'are 'likely to find a nest- ing pair, If a nest can be found, a guard will "be . placed near it to protect the birds from natural predators, hunters and marsh fires. 3 CONFIDENTIAL REPORTS ON CANADIAN GOLD Mines - Properties - Companies ASCOT AGENCY Four Colborne Street TORONTO, ONTARIO Phone BLgin 4085 You "wih "Enjoy Serine At The ST.

As Suicide Troops The Japanese Army has called on the people to commit national hara-kiri in defense of the Empire against American invaders, 'Radio Tokyo 'reported, In a 20-page "People's Handbook for Resistance Combat," the Army exhorted the "100,000,000 people" of the home islands to 'become spe- cial (suicide) attackers," in the event of American landings, "thus defending the Empire to the last," a radiocast quoting Domei newp agency said, Restrictions on the production of "pleted by the industry, prodiiction Ic That Canadians Will Be Asked To Contribute Used Clothing For Needy In Europe National War Services and the Prices Board, which sone time ago halted relief campaigns for over- seas countries, have now granted permission to the Canadian United Allied Relief Fund to conduct a nation-wide clothes collection in Canada, Because of shortages in textile and other fields the public will be asked to contribute only ser- viceable used clothing as can be spared without replacement UNRA will undertake the shipping and distribution to the needy in allied war-devastated countries, « «= The United Kingdom Information Office in Ottawa discloses that timber resources in Britain were utilized ruthlessly to meet the needs of war. Some 130,000,000 trees were felled--two out of every five hardwood; three out of four softwood, and three out of five timber trees... At that, the use of wood was cut to a minimum. Even spools and women's shoe heels were reduced in size, and only scraps were permitted for limited toy-making. } " x & Captain Harold T. W. Grant, D.S.0., of Halifax, who commands H.M.C. Cruiser Ontario, the new- est and most powerful of the 60 ships Canada is sending to the Pacific, has already won a place in Empire and Canadian naval history. Captain Grant went to the Royal Navy on loan in the summer of 1943 and was given command of the aging cruiser Enterprise. What he did with that ship won him the admiration of the allied nations, : Not counting' the cost, he drove _ the Enterprise, which was in company with another Royai Navy cruiser, into the Bay of Biscay, engaged 11 German destroyers, sank three and damaged others to the extent that the surviving des- troyers fled. In that action he was wounded and won the D.S.O. When he recovered he went. back to sca with the Enterprise. His next_ exploit came 19 days after D-Day in action against enemy in- stallations at Cherbourg. The United States government awarded him the United States Bronze Star Medal® for "his aggressive determination, delivering accurate and effective gunfire and providing splendid support for units of the U. S. army involved" A veteran of World War I, Captain Grant became chief of 'naval personnel at headquarters" in Ottawa in 1940. Subsequently he was stationed in Newfoundland, after which he went overseas to take command of the Enterprise. - Of the 900 men Captain Grant now commands in the Ontario, 330 are from the province of Ontario. The cruiser which can stand 18 miles off shore and drop four tons of concentrated death and destruc- tion. per minute on- enemy instal- lations, is equipped with. the moat modern gunfire control directors. It can blast enemy planes out of the sky before they can be spotted by the naked eye. Ukraine's Civilian War Toll 7,000,000 The Soviet Ukraine lost 7,000, 000 civilians during the war, Guards Col. Vladimir Mochalov said inthe 'official army organ, Red Star, ) He said that .2,500,000 lost their lives outright, 1,500,000 are miss- ing without traces~and 2,000,000 were -shipped to Germany, The Ukraine's population before the war was 40,000,000, 'Mochalov said the material loss to 'the Ukraine during 'the war was more than $100,000,000,000.

Special attention should be given to the finger nails and the skin between the fingers, As an added precau- tion, the hair should be washed and then rubbed' down with al. cohol. If the skin turns red and blistery despite these precautions, a doctor should be consulted. Temporary relief may be obtain- ed by bathing the irritated parts fn hot water or by applying milk 'of magnesia, calamine lotion or a solution of epsom salts (one tablespoon to one cup of water), An authority on 'this subject emphasizes that cold cream and | other ointments should never be used. He claims they only spread the poison, ge Total Destruction Of World Possible? The Germans came within six months of splitting the atom and 'possibly destroying the world in the process, Herbert Agar, special assistant to the American Am. bagsador to - Britain, sald ifn a speech last week, "It the war had gone on an- other six months. it was quite :pos- sible that this. planet would have ceased to exist, because it was probable that someone would have controlling it," Agar said. "There was a danger that the Germans would learn how to split it first, and our scientists gave the date as Aug. 6 of this year, "I sincerely: believe that in = very few years, the human being will know how to destroy the hu- man race."
