Delay In Housing Start Al S'side Dismays AOC

SUMMERSIDE BUREAU

OF THE GUARDIAN

Air Commodore W. I. Cle- ments, OBE-_ CD, air officer com- manding Maritime Air Com- mand has expressed dismay at the delay in the start of 275 additional housing units in th e Hillcrest Park area at Summer-

side. . _ Following his annual inspec- tion of the Summerside RCAF Station yesterday, he said th e delay in providing this housing means e ation 300 men below the establishment re-

quired.

The AOC also spiked local rumors that there would be cut-back of personnel or closing of the

r the Summerside or‘ Greenwood air s tions.

He stated he did not know what is causing the delay in the start of the additional housing units at Summerside and said “we have inquired repeatedly to Cen- tral Mortgage and Housing con- cerning this matter, and are al- ways given hope that the pro- Iect is almost ready to begin.” ’ Air Commodore Clements said that because of the lack of hous- lng the station did not have the personnel needed to fly a n (I maintain the complete Argus squadron. '

Group Capt. A. G. Dagg. com- manding officer of the Summer- side air base. confirmed the problem of housing shortage. and said that some RCAF‘ fam- ilies are residing as far distant

l as 25 miles from the airbase be-

cause they could not obtain clo- ser accommodation. and noted ih in order to be together. some RCAF families were living in substandard housing.

The second stage of"the Hill- crest development. comprising 200 housing units. will com- pleted by the end of November

While having no effect on the operational program of the sta- tion. it was revealed by the Air Commodore that the austerity program did affect some pro- jects on the station notably the renovation of an airmen's loun- ge which had been stopped mid- way to completion, resulting in the yoff of some carpenters and painters.

He emphasized that while this and some other expansion pro- jects had been deferred due to the austerity program. th e principle had been accepted that the operational effectiveness of th e Summerside air ata- tion would not be cut.

He said that the danger to this continent is less from inter- continental ballistic missiles than from nuclear warheads in re- ckets that could be fired at

closer range with greater accti:‘r- , .

acy and less cost than ICBM weapons. . He said that if enemy sub- marines could approach to with- in -100 on 200 mes of our coastline they could fire guided missiles on strat-=.gic_ targets with such reasonable accuracy and short range that little time would be left for their detection. interception, and destruction

This would be the primary role of enemy submarines in the first phase of "any future war, he said, and this made the job of the Argus aircraft vital to our national defence program be- cause a sub would he a mov- ing launching site and more difficult to get at.

Noting that this was his fifth inspection of the, Summerside station he pointed to the expan- sion that has taken place here in the past few years notably the new hangars, and other da- velopments. He also comr.. ed on the improvements to the older sections of the station which "had combined to greatly improve the appearance of the air base.

Air Commodore Clements said his inspection of the station indi- cated only ona _major problem which was centered in the condition -9! two _of the three runways at the airbase which are in need of rebuilding.

Group Capt. Dagg, the station's cdmmanding officer. revealed that the two runways in question had to be closed to air traffic last spring because of their con- dition, and that this would lik- ely be necessary next spring.

Both officers emphasized. how- ever, that the runways can be. kept usable by patching, and that the station has one large new runway that is in near per- fect condition.

Yesterday morning Air Com- modore Clements. accompanied by Group Capt. Dagg and other senior officers of the station. toured the new housing develop- ment at Hillcrest where the 200 new units are nearing comple- tion. .
