Canadian Development of Guided Missiles Iteporled In Final Stages

II! DAVE Memrosn Canadian Press Staff writer

OTTAWA (CP)-Canadian dev- elopment of an air-to-air guided missile is in its final stages, de- fence officials said Friday.

For nearly fours years. scientists have been working atithe Cana- dian Armament Research and Dev- elopment Establishment at Vulcar- tler, Que.. to produce a guided missile in arm fighter aircraft.

It is hoped that the missile will be at least part of the answer to the threat of long-range jet bom- hers.

One authority said that rapid progress has been made in air- craft development since the Sec- ond World War but that there has been little advance up to now in aircraft armament.

BEE HIGH RATE OF KILL!

Canada's new missile is not the be-all and end-all of fighter aircraft armament. But, fired at a plane from within a certain range, its ratio of kills probably will be ex- tremely high.

The missile can be carried by either the CF-100 long-range jet in- terceptor or the Sabre jet fighter.

The tweapon itself has not yet been fired. though working model: have. When it is, the RCAF prob- ably will use pilotless jet aircraft as test targets for the missiles at its new 330,000,000 wegpons range at Cold Lake. Alta.

If any potential enemy knew the exact range of the weapon. it would be possible for him to deter- mine its vulnerable points and

..ret- lluarrr sac svrnnsrcnno It is possible. officials said, that the weapon might never go into production. If the Americans or British came up with something better in this field, Canada would not hesitate to adopt It. However. present plans are that the Valcar- tier missile will be produced In this country. The guid.:l missile being dev- eloped by Canada is not intended for gxound-to-sir use because its range isn't great enough. This tueans that if Canada wants to set 1.1a anti-aircraft defence it will havp to obtain ground-to-air missiles such as the American Nike from the United State: or Britain.

While a patient is waiting for a major operation, sometimes he re- ceives temporary medical aid to tidt him over until he can be more or less permanently patched up, 1: would be fine if the Summerside town fathers. in their role of high- way surgcons, could follow this same procedure with some of the Summerside streets waiting to be paved. It is encouraging to know that help is just around the corner, but. in the meantime, cars crossing Upper Granville and Russell, to cite two examples, look -like canoes rid- ing dangerous rsplda. some sort of temporary fill would be welcom- ed. even it it lasted only a few weeks.

We started from Summerside to Charlottetown recently via the Trans-Canada Highway and for about three-quarters of the way, rolled effortlessly over the smooth new pavement. Then came the de- tours. It reminded us a little of the games patterned after "Parcheesl" where, if you land on a certain space, the instruction is: "Go back five spaces." A really intricate labyrinth of branch roads takes you about fif- teen mlles out of your way over some typically beautiful stretches of Island land and seoacapea. We were in no hurry and enjoyed every minute of it. We can im- nglne others feeling the same way. But in the case of travel-weary tourists, anxious to get placed for a night's rest. the detour sit- uation might rankie a little. It would be wise to direct such visit-

The City block bounded by Queen, Richmond, Pownal, and Grafton streets may, in th not distant future, become a ho low husk, or partially so. There is a proposition afoot to clear a number of the old buildings out of the interior of the block to make a parking lot for shoppers. A number of promin- ent Queen Street merchants are known to have discussed the plan. l'br a few days men with tape and note books busied themselves in the vicinity measuring 'and jot-

In one spring of use when the whole new plant is in operation. the Griffin Company expects to employ one hundred people, which will boost the number of people engaged in fish processing in Souris to almost three hundred. Quite a change from the pre-drag-

It is hard to believe that Islanders overlooked this source of revenue for so many years. similar situation would exist in Agriculture, tivated only 595 or so of their ar- able acreage.

thing has been heard, but it is said the proposal is only in abey- anco and has not been dropped. There is ample room in the inter-I ior of the block for the purpose intended. ' The scramble for car berths a- long our city streets has reach- ed the point where there is not enough room in the down-town area. to go around when traffic is heavy. Too many shoppers are finding themselves parked out on the perimeter of the business aeo- tlon of the town, when they want to be conveniently parked at its hub.

0 When representatives of the Un- lted Air Force were in Charlotte- town a few days ago recruiting men and women to work at air bases in Labrador Greenland and Newfoundland more than one hun- dred people applied for jobs. Of this large number only twelve were successful, in obtaining posi- tions. and there was great dlsap pointment among the rejected. The high number of rejectees a.- rose when many of the spplicanta proved to be laborers and carpen- ters, whereas the recruiting agents had advertised for diesel mechan- ica, heavy equipment operators, plumbers clerks and stenographers. Most of the disappointed ones dis- regarded the wording of the news- paper advertisement, and were un- able to fill the fairly tough ro- quirementr.
