Defence Bears Fruit

The record of 34 night raiders brought down already this month was compared to the previous best of 32 each in September and October when the Germans were busiest. and many Britons believ- ed the work the air force has been putting in on manifold defence methods was bearing fruit. Meanwhile the Clydeside dug out from under demolished homes and factories.

The Government said Glasgow suffered a "heavy and prolonged" raid. Industrial buildings were damaged. many fires broke out and ‘the number of casualties was "ser- ous."

Only a crater marked the site of one tenement. several families were dug nut from tinder another three-storey apartment that col- lapsed. and there were oihcr vic- tims when a row of houses was demolished.

'I'he raiders also made a repeat- ed raid mi Liverpool and set fire to l paint factory which blazed for hours at. a northeast coast town. (The Germans claimed this was Hull. There was no British con- firmatloii.)

Coincident with the attack on Glasgow the Government announ- ced that a marine expert. sir Arthur salter. is being sent. tn the United States at once to work out details of aid t0 British shipping. Robert H. Brand. n. director of Lloyds Bank. also is heading a mission to the United Statcs to arrange for food shipments, it was announced.

Charlottetown music lovers had the privilege cf hearing last evening an ouisiaiidin: Polish pianist. Mr. Mieczyslaiv l\luiiz. who appeared un- der the auspices of the Community Concert Association in a brilliant performance in St. Paul's parish

Few txmcerts in the long series which the As ooiation has sponsored gave such genuine pleasure and sat- isfactioii.

Mr. Miuiz opened with the beauti- ful chorale. “Jesu. Jov of Man's De- string.” from the Organ Cantata. No. 1-17 by Johann Sebastian Bach. The melody familiar to successive generations seems never to lose its charm. was the oiilv Bach number cu .e program. It was foi- lowcd bv another: cliis 1c of endur- ing popularity.

The third. selection. also by Handel. was a graceful Minuet from an early opera “Bernice? which Mr._ Munz transcribed last summer while Ln Canada on vacation. The first sec- tion of the program concluded with "Pasiorale" and "Cupriccio" by D0- nienico Scarliitti ("the younger Scarlaitrw one of the 18th century tnastcrs of liurilsichord comflfisiticii.

The commerclalizintl of Partridge was being made a regular business of. he said. also statlnz that he knew of what had once been good 1 ties, were now nearly depleted.

He urged that a move should be made so as part-ridges should not be kept in cold storage pointing out that if this was continued the v1- olatlons would continue.

Hon. W. H. Dennis wondered whether or not we shouldn't have a closed season on native partridge for a year or two. and in regard to the selling of partridge in stores the speaker was of the opinion that true sportsmen should notify the authorities and have this stopped. Such information would be treat- ed confidentially the speaker said and would be a bl- help in stamp- ing out this infrac ion of the game aw.

Mr. Gardiner told the House it was not to be assumed others than men aged 21 would not be called for military training under the fmir- month plan. lib: the present only men 21 years old and others who had been called for the 30-day training periods but who had cured postponement: were being called.

But the department would call u many a! wereneoessary and go vond the 21year class 1f necessary.

There were about 96.000 men in this class and 72.000 were required at the rate of 6.000 a month to kee the training centres operating a year. Out of the 96.000 11101116001116 men who enlisted voluntarily for active service or were unfit.

I I I I British Training JAClIEI/ilid from iggc 1)

Six British planes were lost.

The last waves ‘of British bomb- ers visited Hamburg after 4 am. to "give the fires already set a new start." the Air Ministry news ser- vice reiported.

Most of the bombs, however. were dropped from 10.30 pan. Thurs- day to 1:80 am" Friday, and after that, cfflcial accounts said, "so much damage had been done that it uios difficult to pick out details on the ground because of the glare of fires and the smoke over the city... Aloni; both banks of the Elbe and a1 amongst the intricate network of docks, harbors and quays, warehouses and factories were blazing."

Powerful Attacker;

'I'.he attacking forces was describ- ed even in the official accounts as "powerful." The primary targets were docks and stripyazds where are manufactured U-boats and ships of all kinds.

Izi connection tvith the training of dfensiva troops. the. organiza- tion of a “nsccnnaisance corps" of the army was disclosed in the of- ficial gazette. An announcement covered commission of officers foo’ this cinps.

It will blast the way for infantry and make deep raids similar to the cavalry forays of classical tactics.

Observers point out, that a few hundred trained soldiers of this sort. striking at the right spot at the right time, will be able to keep thousands of German troops (n guard and thus virtually immobiliz- ed—-—long befcre the British army starts a continental invasion in earnest.

Targets for these tactics are any lightly defended spots along 2,000 miles of irregular continental coast- line, finm tlie Arctic to the Bay of Biscay,

German raids, on the other hand. would have to be undertaken in the face of sea superiority and a oom- paratfvcly short coastline bristles with. defences.
