Operation Alert Air Raid Test

By WARREN ROGERS Jr.

NEWSPOINT. Operation Alert (AP)-spurred by a personal visit from President Eisenhower. civil defence chiefs Monday tackled the order-out-of-chaos phase of Opera- tion Alert I957.

Eisenhower dropped in on the mountaintop secret relocation cen- tre by helicopter. Hc made I brief Inspection tour and then flew to Washington. DC, ending his par- ticipation in the exercise.

The capital had been theoreti- cally laid waste Friday by a mock attack supposed to have dropped 166 H-bombs on 115 American ci- ties. , The attack phase of this fourth annual civil defence drill ended Sunday night. Officials toting up the damage figured 41,000,000 Am- erieans were evacuated from the target areas. where populations amounted to 95.000000.

That left 54,000,000 unaccounted for. Presumably they were dead or huddled to bomb shelters as long as the radioactive-free can- ned food holds out. But officially there were no ”casualty" figures.

Strawberry Harvest Fast I Reaching Peak On Island

The strawberry crop on the Is- land is about reaching its peak ac- cording to Mr. Norman Mncl.eod d the Charlottetown StrIwberrY Exchange which is daily hund- llng large quantities of berries for processing in the frozen food mar- ket. He predicted that the best of the berries would probably be har- vested by the latter part of this week.

At the start of the season it was thought that due to an Increase in the crop across the continent and du o the dumping of United Sta es berries on the market with the resulting backing up of proces- sed berries in storage. Island Far- mers would have to take I severe reduction in price over former years.

However. I very poor crop in Nova Scotia and New Bruns-

during the past threee years re- ceived a much higher price for

their berries than In any other part of the North American contin- ent and this year California grow-

an received eight cents I lb while Michigan grower! 801 19 cents.

tatlve was shown some of the her- ries grown by Mr. Elmer Jay of Mount Stewart. Mr. Jay is experi- menting with I new variety known In "Catskill." These berries grow to a giant size and the flavour proved to be excellent. The Mount Stewart grower is also ex- perimenting with the "Sparkle" variety which he hopes to have in production next year. HEAVY YIELD

Both varieties are said to bear heavy crops and berries of unus- uIl size and it is hoped that their quality will enable their shipment to more distant points. These varieties are also expected t 0 yield well on the second and third year after planting.

Monarchy After Franco Is Gone

By HENRY BUCRLEY

MADRID tReuters) - One of Gen. Francisco Franco's chief aides told the Vortes (parliament) Monday that when Franco dies or gives up power he will be re- placed by I monarchy.

Luis Carrcro Blanca, minister in

charge of Franco's office. said the monarchy would be "neither lib- eral nor absolute but I traditional. representative and Catholic mon- archy." Carrcro Blnnco. I navy cnptnln. is one of FrInco'I close collabor- Itors. He has ncted II go-between for the 64-year-old chief of state and Don Juan. pretender to the Spanish throne.

Franco is expected to bypass Don Juan and select Prince Juan Carlos. I0. Don JuIn'I son and grandson of Spain”: luf kind. D0! Alfonso XIII.

Carreni BlInco'I speech was received here as reflecting the de- sire of the regime to accustom the nation to the idea of a future monarchy. This Ilso was shown In the copious publicity given in newspapers int week to the four- dny visit to Madrid of the prince. NOT SAME POWERS

Currero Blsnco said that the monnrehy which replaces Franco will not have the same powers as the generaliutmo "who Is In ex- ceptional mIn won the Spanish civil war and reconquered Spain."
