Germany

Col. J. C. Lockwood. Conservative. early last week.

Oliver Lyttieton. member and President of the Board of Trade in the wartime coalition. government. charged the British Government with having no clear-out policy for the British zone. adding that no’ one could give more than the vaguest reply to such questions as to whether the occupation was likely to last for a decade or a generation; whether Germany was to become an industrial country, and whether the British policy was punitive or constructive.

The Conservative member said that Britain, a victorious Dower. was subsidizing its conquered en- gmy to the tune of 280,000,000 (8330000000) annually. In one year. Britain had spent a little under £3 ($8) a head of her own population on support of the Ger- mans who had fought Britain with ferocity and cruelty. h-e said. but only five shillings on the support o: the colonial empire and colon- ial empire and colonial people who fought for Britain.

On June '7 the proposals wet-e tonight were threatening the town accepted by the Congress party, of Shediac and the village of Rrchibucto alter destroying at

ieast a dozen summer cottages at Cfllssle Cape. 26 miles from here.

Forest Rangers said that only a heavy rain could halt the spread- ing flames. Although property damage was comparatively light, loss in timberland was heavy.

Most serious fire was that near the Northumrberland Strait resort town cfSt-iediac which burned. out of control throughout the day, fanned by a 25-mile wind. The flames moved with such speed that the hundreds of tire-fighters had to confine their efforts to protecting farm buildings in the path of the fire.

The Wastmorland County nre was burning on two fronts. The chief blaze. on the bank of the Scoudouc River opposite Shediac spread to the Westrrrorland-Kent border. destroying at Caissie Cape.

The second major fire wee burn- ing near the outskirts of the Kent Coilntv village of Richibucto. Dur- 1mg the night the breeze subsided. bringing temporary relief to the fire-fighters who had held a tire- ilne outside the village during the

9-

ay. The outbreaks occurred during the weekend when embers from week-old fires were fanned by stiffening breezes.
