BERNE, Switzerland. Aug. S. — (AP) -By the light of hundreds of fires blazing from Alpine peaks, Swiss residents celebrated tonight the 649th anniversary of union anti freedom and heard their leaders ohdc- BJlCW a firm determination to defend the notion against any and all invaders.

Gen. Eleni-i Guisau, commander of the Swiss aritiy. and Dr. Mar- cel Pilet-(iolaz. president of the Swiss confederation, joined in tell- ing the people the armed forces and the government would fight "to the end" to maintain Swiss neutrality and independence.

“The war around us is not end- ed; the armistice is not a peace," both declared. They counselled the people to go about their work as usual. but to remember they might bjecome soldiers on a moment's no- we.

Transports From Trains-Do Not See Port City.

By Frank Flaherty Canadian Press Staff Writer

An east coast Canadian port on the eve of the departure of a troop convoy provides the most warlike scene to be found anywhere Canada.

There is no hurry, cracking of guns, no ostentatious marching of soldiers. All is quiet, orderly, purposeful.

Palatlal passenger liners. paint.- ed in the dull, inconspicuous col- ors of war. stand moored to piers. Aboard _hundreds of khaki-clad figures line the rails and [seer through the iportholes. watchini the ships ply the harbor.

They are Canadian soldiers wait- ing for the big ships to carry them across the sea to Britain. Most of them are far from home but they may not ivalk the streets of the east coast city they have never seen. They are at it but not. in it. They marched from train to ship and. except for the odd route march while awaiting departure, will not step ashore again until they reach their destination.

Nearby at other piers lie speedy destroyers of the Royal Canadian Navy and battleships and cruisers of the Royal Navy. Overhead roars an occasional patrol lane of the Royal Canadian Air crce.

no fuss. no

Departure Hour Unknown

At an hour. known in advance by naval officials only, the troopshlps. destroyers, battleships, and air- planes take up positions together and more as a unit towards the open sea.

So it was with the sailing of the Canadian troops whose safe arrival overseas was made known yester- day. Theyt were the fifth major contingent of soldiers to sail over- seas from this east coast Canadian port since the present war lx-gan.

The naval. military and air for- ces, Combining, their power and their ingenuity‘, have prepared a smooth-lvorkiiig arrangement to protect embai-kalion points for the troops and supplies which leave Canada for Great Britain.

The Air Force patrols the coasts and ranges far out to sea, look- ing for any enemy approaching. Canadian surface vessels also roam coastal waters ilslng listening de- vices to detect. any submarine.
