Four Suffer Injuries In iialifax Blaze

HALIFAX, Sept. l8—(OP)—-Two firemen were taken to hospital and two others given first aid in police station tonight for injuries suffered in a.n e lesion in John- son's jewellry re, downtown Halifax, where they were fighting

a fire.

The fire, which was brought un- der control, had started when a watch-cleaning machine caught fire. Four men in the store at ihs time made eir way out.

The exploson was believed to have been caused by combustion. The windows blew out and the firemen were struck by flying

debris.

Names of the firefighters are Reg Gray and Freeman Kynok, taken to oiice station, and Earl Fox arid aptaln Docks, taken to hospital. Earl Fox is the son of Police Chief Fox.

The blaze gutted the inside of the store and spread to en apart- ment upstairs next door as well as the upper part of Murphy's paint store to the rear.

Effects 0f Strike No_t Yet Known

WINNIPEG, Sept. l8 - TC?)- Just how badly Western Canada which has long proudly called it- self “the bread basket of the world”, will feel the effects oi the delivery strike by farmers in Al-_ berta and Saskatchewan was not immediately apparent tonight.

Surveys reveal that, so far at least, shortages in the two prov- inces appear limited to some rural districts although meat-packing plants in the cities of Edmcnlc-tl. Saskatoon. Regina and Prince Al- bert, Sash. predict a decrease in meat supplies within a few days. Receipts are, down as much as 36 per cent in one plant.

-Greatest scarcity appears to be in eggs and croamery products in some areas where picket lines have been strong. Grain deliver- ies in the three western provinces actually show an increase over the same period last year but so many factors govern daily grain deliver- ies that these are useless as a barometer of the strlke's effective-

ness. Minister MacKinnon.

(Trade said at Vancouver Mcciday, how- ever, that supplies of wheat in Al- berta elevators were “still inade- quate to support a good rall move- ment to the Pacific coast")

While Manitoba farmers are taking no part in the strike, it is doubtful whether any surplus in this Province would be used to ease scarcity which might develop elsewhere. Shipping costs and ex- isting price ceilings would oom- bine to make it an unprofitable venture even if difficulties of transportation and preservation of perishable products were over- come. In addition. most of ivlani- tobzrs farm products already are contracted for by eastern buyers.

Private Arab Army Prepared To Fight Jewish Terrorists?

(By Carter L. Davidson)

JERUSALEM, Sept. 18--(AP)— Palestlne Jewry tonight launched its own campaign against fanatical underground violence amid reports from Arab sources that a private Arab Army believed to number 25.000 had been offered to the Arab Higher Executive "to fight Jewish terrorism with all our strength."

The Holy land's Jews appeared to be marking time for a new policy course. In all Jewish com- munities the Jewish National Council (Vaad Leumi) staged mass meetings at which Jews were to be advised, Jewish sources said, plms for increased financial sup- port for Jewish immigration.

There was no official confirma- tion, meanwhile. of a report by Arab informants that Mohamed Nimer l-luwari, leader of Nujada. had offered his army to the Arab Higher Executive.

Huwarl. a Jaffa lawyer, could not be reached for comment. but associates said such an offer would mean principally that the defol- sive activities of his forces would be co-ordinaoed with the work of other Arab groups, rather
