20 Homes Are Destroyed In . Rochesiei N. Y.

(By Owen J. Crumb) ROCHESTER, N. Y., Sept. 21- (AP)-Three persons were known dead and 10 were injured in a series of gas blasts that destroy- ed at least 2) homes in the fash-

day. The coroner's office said it had no reports of anyone missing. The blast claimed the lives of

More than 2.000 homes in the night-block blast area were va- cated on police orders. All house- holders within a two-mile radius were told to shut off gas lines.

Most homes were to wrecked

The bodies of two children, re- moved from the wreckage of one home. were burned beyond re- cognition. but were believed to be Mary Ann, 8, and William Jr. 4, children of William J. Mass. Mrs. Louise Meyer, 77, was fat.- ally stricken with in heart at- tack while being removed from her home.

A utility company official said the first explosion apparently was caused by a regulator on n principal gas main that failed to function.

Unofficial estimates placed the damage at more than 3500.000. Robert A. Pavlour of the Roch- ester Board of Estimates said the average valuation of homes In the blast area is 525,000.

Several thousand school child- ren were evacuated from grade and high schools on the fringe of the blast area. There were no , .at the school build- ings;: v '

Mr. Leo Mclsaacis Report On, European Tour And PEI Survey” s

The Guardian has this week

' secured all rights for the orig-

inal publication, in serial form. of Mr. Leo P. Mclsaacls forth- coming book, ”Lessons from Eur- ope in Community Progress."

One year ago today, Mr. and Mrs! Mclsaac et out for a year of study and travel in Europe. As secretary of the Prince Ed- ward Isinnd Federation of Agri- culture, Mr. McIsnac's outstand- success was recognized abroad as well as at home. The Canadian Association for Adult Education recommended him for a scholarship that provided an opportunity to participate in an international study tour of Great Britain and Western Europe.

Fortified with a comprehensive understanding of Maritime so- cial and economic conditions and imbued with nn ardent faith in the potentialities of his native Province, Cnnadn's representative on this ten month's survey of the various social and economic policies and movements in Eur- ope has brought home valuable lessons gleaned from decades of experience in the Old World.

Since his return in July, Mr. Mclsaac has worked steadily at the compilation of a detailed re- port which The Guardian will serialize in its entirety beginning Monday next. The report is in three parts; the first. "The Tour- ist's Tour". covers his trip from the tourist) point of view. It is replete with interesting side- lights nnd brings one up to date on trends. conditions and (us- -toms" in the f'olcl countries". The second part is a. brief review of social and economic policies and trends in the vnrious people's organizations and in the govern- ments of Western Europe. The third part is Mr. McIssac's sur- vey of trends and conditions at home with an application of the experiences of Europeans who have had and still have many problems like ours.

The Guardian has reviewed the first draft of the survey and has found in it a great wealth of information, coupled with com- ments and detailed suggestions of a sweeping nature for the im- provement of conditions in this Province.

The European review and the home appraisal provide a solid foundation for the far-reaching. yet practical. blueprint in which Mr. Mclsaac suggests revisions in the administration of our social. economic. and political organiz- ations. Pnrla two and three of this report in their preliminary form have been presented to the executives of various provincial organizations. A joint committee has been set up to study them and it will likely make a public report of its findings and recom- mendations within a week or ten days.

Realizing that too often Prince Edward Islanders are prone to neglect Island talent and turn to outsiders for light as well as recreation, The Guardian is pleased to publish Mr. McIsaac's report at first hand. and give it the Province-wide publicity it well merits at this time.

Since the report will likely be published in book form enrly in 1952. all rights are reserved and no portion of it may he repro- duced.
