Air Defence Command. then. faces two huge tasks: To estab- lish bases for identifying aircraft throughout Canada. from Elm 10 west and from the 49th parallel to'the North Pole: and to establish communication .lines for relaying Information to command head- quarters here; c

Beyond those. lies one m0l'8 need - the maintenance of a force to destroy enemy aircraft.

For an organization that wins horn in 1948. and did not attain command status until 1951. Air De- fence Command has made im- mense strides. Air Vice Marshal l..E. wi-ay. oar-2. AFC.

Between St . Hubert and Ameri- can air defence headquarters in Colorado Springs, Colo.. exists a closely knit spirit of co-operation, sparked by a committee in which both countries share responsibili- ties. So close is the partnership that A. V. M. Wray on telephone directly to his American counter- part. General E. E. Partridge. faster than he can place a local call to Montreal. nine miles away. .. And, of the ' ence of an Arne- rlcan air division based in New- foundland. manned by Ameliblll air force A. V. M. W10! I!!! 1110' rely. "It is an historical prece- dent." He admits that there is an irony in Canadian air defence de- voting ltself.in a large measure to protecting the resources of an- other country - namely the 11.5. Strategic Air Command force that NATO conslde a its main deter- rent to war. The exchange, how- ever. is mutually beneficial. Surveillance of the sky. and ear- ly warning. then. are the vital functions of the Air Defence Com- mand. And every day, the latter becomes more difficult to attain. As the possible speed of invading aircraft increases to a point bey- ond the sonic barrier. true any warning becomes closer to im- possible. The radar belt which exists - backed. in some places by another. more southerly radar belt - scans the north. However, if communication from the pre- sent radar stations reaches Air Defence Command headquarters more slowly than the aircraft which are the subject of the worn- ing. Plainly no purpose is served. No bodies could be more con- scious of this truth than the Ca- nadian and American air forces and the. governments which sup- port them. The result of their awareness is two new radar lin- es. pushing farther and farther north - the Mid-Canada line and the DEW. line. Both co-operative
