Canucks llad Land Exercises

By ROSS MUNRO

Canadian Press War Correspondent

WITH A CANADIAN ATTACK FORCE AT A BRITISH PORT. July 13-(0? Cable)--'I‘his ciack Canadian force. taking a leading part in preparations for possible combined opeiations and attacks against western Europe by the army, navy and air force. We!“ through intensive exercises ashore in addition to great sea manoeuv- res during weeks of second-front training which have just ended.

Six battalions of infantry, sup- ported b_v armored elements, engi- neers, signals and miscellaneous units, set a new high shock- troops trainiii- for the military forces in Brit i.

From land training this "web-foot-

ed" force graduated to sea-going d;

exercises. working with one of the most powerful invasion fleets ever collected. ‘Ilhere were several hund- red assault craft of various types

Some time ago the Canadians were biought secretly to camps near this port and from the crack-of- dawn reveille to nightfall trained in all the complexities of combined operations.

Street fighting was the feature and the infantry worked in a‘ bomb- ed-out village, battling throuch wrecked buildings and adding to the damage with hand grenades which they flung like baseballs.

Every battalion had an obstacle course over which it practiced as- saults deliberately rendered harder than anything it would be likely to find on an actual raid.

Speed marches were held a'm:>.;t daily. Wearing battle kit and carrv- ing raiding weapons. including the new cheaply manufactured auto- matic Sten gun which is being pro- duced in Canada the troops moved l0 to 20 miles, marching at top speed and descending all inclines at the double.

Thousands and thousands of pounds of live ammunition were used in field firing practice. Never has any Canadian force had such an opportunity to become p-‘ofici- ent with its weapons except in nc- tual combat.

This was the largest Canadian force ever to be concentrated for combined training and it was an impressive sight to witness its gOinz to sen, with its great naval support-

, ing force.

Strong‘ Protests Made By C.W.L. At Coiuvention

MONTREAL. July 13—(CPl-'I‘l"ie National Executive of the Catholic WONG"? IMIBIJQ, in convention here, has passed a resolution "deplorinz the tendency on the part of in- dustry" to employ ‘teen age boys ﬁnd Kiri-s, it was announced today.

The resolution. one of sevens!

passed at c closed session of- -tlie~

executive, said that older trained workers are not called upon "to the extent that is possible and reas- onable" and that boys and girls were being tempted away from school by "the lure of earning mon- ey.'

In another resolution the execu- tive callcd for a campaign protest- ing against the radio dramatization of "stories which we consider de-

cidedly salacious in that they fea- l

ture illicit love and the like, fre- quently presenting, in a ‘most subtle manner, pagan philosophies."

The resolution added that other radio programs "feature pagan mys- tery stories of s. most ﬂlle-wmc "ﬂ- ture, decidedly harmful to immature children, spiritually, mentally and physically.”

The National Executive protested against "the action of the govern- ment of Canada in granting prior- ity to the manufacture of rubber contraceptive devices."

The resolution said thlt it WM the patriotic duty of Canadians to conserve rubber by curtailing the manufacture of non-essential rub- bei- products. and added: "We con- sider the ntlng of such priority to be det mental to the successful prosecution of the war since it im- plies and encourages the wide-spread use of’ such devices wifh the conse- quent lmmornlity which will un-

doubtedly result in the disintegration ed u! cm- mnt Canadian notion."

Msccionald told the members of the sinking or an Allied vessel in the St. Lawrence River. And on the preceding clay he had announced the terpcdoing of still another ship. Mr. Macdonald then told the House that IIBWS 01 my subsequent sink- ings would be withheld for military reasons.

Today, referring to Mr. Roy's statement of last Friday. the Navy Minister reminded the members that he had "endeavored to lay down certain rules which should guide in further pronouncements of this nature." He added:-

. .The chief censor for Canada. Col. (QM) Biggar in co-operation ujith the officers of the naval ser- vices. issued a circular which was vmted to _the newspapers of the country setting forth in greater d:- tail the considerations which should be kept in mind in making state- ments of this sort.

Newspapers Careful

"I am very glad to sav that the newspapers of this country have ob- served with the greatest care the suggestions made to them by Col. Bigger. I should like to point out that in Great Britain announce- ments of sinklngs of merchant ships are not now made."

‘ There were. Mr. Mncdonald added. 'exceilent" reasons for that policy, one of which was to prevent the next-of-kin of casualties from bein

informed before receivin ofilcia notification. But the maﬁn reason was to Prevent giving useful infor- mation to the enemy.

That is the chief reason why some secrecy has to be maintained." he said. "And the ways in which announcements of this sort may be of use to the enemy axe many and varied.

"If he does not get the informa- tion from us he has to work it out for himself. he has to separate ru- mor from fact. He has to Judge of the reliability of his information. and in a hundred ways he may re- main uncertain. But when we in this country. and particularly in this House. give him the information on a platter. then the thing is settled and he docs not need any more to inquiieas to the accuracy of the mlvllerii/i d id aid

-. ac ona. s asaresult of Mr. Roy's statement of last Friday he felt "almost required" to an. nounce the sinkings.

Gave Little Dclall

He gave little detail of the U-boat attack. but said that the residents of the region in which the occurred “have shown in this and in the other instance which occurr- ed two months ago the highest measure of charity and kindliness.”

"They are not wealthy people I understand." he added. “ they have little to give. but what they had to give they gave a cheerful heart to those men who were r- haps worse off than themselves.

, Macdonaid said there was no doubt that many Canadians knew of the slnkings early last week. It was known along the waterfront of the country and it was known to the press. The news was widespread in this country.

“People say to me, ‘well. the pub- lic know about this anyway. why don't vou make an announcement about it?‘ But there is a tremend-

ous difference between Canadians in

knowing about something and Cler- mans knowing.

"The entire people of this country might know o a sinking or some other event of that kind._ but as information did not get to German . so long as it was not made publ c in our papers. broadcast on our radio. the chances of its getting to Germany would be s

mali......

“So these rules laid down two months ago and repeated by the chief censor are not made for the purpose of keeping information from the people of Canada. not at all.

Captain is Blown off Ship's Bridge

AN EASTERN CANADIAN PORT July l3—(CP)—A serious-eyed cub- taln, blown off his bridge and T95- cued after en-emy torpedoes sank thiee ships in the Gulf of St. Law- rence reccntly, got out of a life- boat. protested attempts to treat his injuries and snapped out: “This is not the time to be tiursed. it 15 the time to fight."

Later a newsman. visiting the hospital where the skipper lay lest-

ssiy on a cot, was told that it was ouiy after such argument a doctor was able to persuade the 01:1 seaman to have his injuries treated. so intent was he at gettin back to the bridge of another slip and “delivering the goods."

The captain said it was only through the action of one cf his officers that he is alive today. “I guess I was protected by my Guard- ian Angel,” he said. -

‘Then he recited a graphic ac- count of this second St. Lawrence attack by Nazi raiders in which lives were lost and sailors injured.

“We were steaming along." said the captain, “in quiet water and in fog. Suddenly we heard a terrif- ic explosion and saw 8- 118* indi- catin that a ship not far off from ours ad been hit."

“I immediately ordered a change of course and at the same moment we heard a. new detonation and a second ship, close to ours, explod- ed and sank after a burst of flames shot into the air.

"I was about to give new orders when a torpedo hit our ship. The U-boat hit us from a distance of only 150 feet and he was between us and the shore. I was blown off the bridge by the violence of the explosion and wounded on the head and one foot (hand he moved irritab- ly, indicating his bandages). But one of my officers at the risk of being trapped himself made a search for me.

"The officer carried me to a life- boat which had been lowered and as soon as I took my place in the boat our ship went to the bottom. I believe that one of my men, standing near wheze the ship was hit. was killed."

He added that tr'_‘. of the crew of his own and anchhcr ship were able to get away in iifeboats. "Three to four on the other ship were kill- ed." They rowed for several hours before being picked up by a can. adian warship. In the boats they hoard the sound of gun firc.

To Celebrate Bastille Bay

By J. WES GALLAGHER

. (Associated Press Staff Writer) .

LONDON, July 1a - (AP) France's underground leaders, un- dauuted by violent new Gestapo op- pression, will celebrate Bastille Day tomorrow while Free Frenchmen the world over will observe the occasion by prepaiiug for the day when they will help throw the German conquer- or out of their homeland.

Gen. Chailes De Gaullc and French underground organizations called upon their followers to cele- brate the French day of liberation in Vichy tcrritoiy by flying the tri- co'or and singing the National An- them in the streets. Celebrations were not encouraged in occupied Fiance because of the dangers in- volved.

_In an anniversary eve broadcastm his homeland, Gen. De Gauile said tcnizht the celebhtions in unoc- Chilled France “will signify that France is making ready for the day “hen the entire nation will rise to drive out and punish the enemy. The demonstrations will show that France lives on. . . .

"In each town and village French men_ and women will march past the appointed spot. Everywhere the Marsellaise will ring out, rising from the hearts of the people. . . .

Observance in Britain will range from a London gathering at which Gen De Gauiie will decorate mem- bcrs of his fighting forces to 5mg}- er ones in training centres where Free Fkenchmen are toughening up as Commandos. Admiral Harold R. Stazk. commander of United States naval forces in European waters and Bug-Gen. Charles L. Bolte, chief of staff to Lieut. Gen. Dwight D- Eisenhower. commander in chief 0f United States army forces in the European theatre, will attend the london celebration. i

in the future be known as La France Combattante - fighting France.

There were strong indications that the underground network in Nazi- hcld Rhee might celebrate in a more destructive manner than fly- ing flags.

The Free French press service in London reported underground chan- nels in France were circulating lists of rendezvous in various French towns where demonstrations are scheduled to be held. Secret broad- casts tc France also are announc- ing these locations. it was held.

Betraylrig nervousness over anti- German attacks, the Gestapo issued a decree on the eve of Bastille Day providin that in case of sabotage or shoot rig of German soldiery, all male members over 18 in a sus- pects family as far removed as in- laws would be shot. women will be sent to concentration camps, child- {en to Nazi-supervised reformator- es.

A Free French spokesman here said the Germans could use this decree to "get rid of anyone, as any. one might be classed as a suspect."

But he predicted the stern new German measure would not stop the almost daily sabotage, shoot- lugs and bombings which have not diminished despite previous German retaliation since the stunned, pass- ive days of 1940.
