Some of them. including their leader. Joe Lawrence of Philadel- pi-,i., wouldn't call it quits, how- ever. After an overnight rest, they went Sunday into Mammoth cave.

Some of them were awed by the big cave's vastness after their week of crawling and climbing Hound Crystal Cave's passages. some of them exceedingly narrow.

They were especially impressed with Msmmoth's huge amphithea- tre, nearly as big as a real theatre. and a big opening with 5 dome 192 feet above the cave surface.

There was some talk of later sxploratlon to penetrate deeper mo Crystal Cave's unexplored rim,-mcis, but official discussions were deferred until the National Speleological (cave study) So- ciety's April meeting.

OTTAWA. (CP) - Twelve miles north of Nottingliam, England, not far from famed Sherwood forest. is small band of Canadian asmen is making Canadian military his- tory.

The "forgotten men" of Canada's 12-squadron air contribution to the NATO forces in Europe. they form the first all-Canadian supply base for Canadian forces in the field.

some 300 personnel, Including 15 nlrwomen, make up the RCAl"'s air materiel base at Lsngar, a. former RAP bomber ststion. They have a Job of supplying and ser- vicing four Sabre Jet wings in three countries with everything from from clothing and jet engines to clothing and jet engines to cotter pins and 10-ton trucks.

Strong Force

The Canadian air division, which forms the strongest striking unit of the Allied air forces. has nearly 7,000 personnel.

It's the first time a Canadian force in the field has been able to rely on its own logist.ics- sup- ply and maintenance-and the boss of AMB at Langar. Group Capt. Gerald McCormick of Vankleek Hill, 0nt., finds it refreshing.

Group Capt. McCormick, 41. had experience in overseas supply when he set up the station in the summer of 1952. He served over- sea: with the RCA!" from 1943 un- til the end of the Second World War as director of equipment.

"I was not much more than a glorified liaison officer." Group Capt. McCormick recalled during a recent visit to headquarters. ”I had not control over any of the equipment.

Belted On RAF

Canadian airmen were supplied mainly from RAP stores, allocated to Canadian units as the RAP saw fit. , similarly, Canadian soldiers and sailors have never operated abroad on their own supply system The 1st Canadian Infantry Brigade now in Germany is supplied by Britain. In Korea. the Canadian 25th Bri- gade has been American-supplied. Canada has found it more conven- lent. to use supply services of other countries and pay them for it.

Langar supplies everything but food to the Sabre squadrons at

offices, the selling Agency may require the order to be filled in the specified area of the assembler. to) Where specifically branded bags have been used to supply special markets, the sellim Agency shall make every effort to main- tsin a continuity of such packages and special markets to the deal- srs who now have such outlets.

(f) The Agency shall promptly place all orders receiv- ed with the dealers who are in line for an order.

(gt Payment for any such order must. be made to the selling Ag- ancy before any purchase order is issued.-this payment to be in the form of a certified cheque or de- posit with the leiiing Agency, Charlottetown.

(hi Dealers. when accepting or- ders and shipping cars, must as- sume fuu responsibility for col- lections, ahrlriksgea, etc. and shos-tags will be charged back by the shipper to the aotuel auesnbler who ioeded the car.

RCAF Operates First Overseas Supply Base

North Luifenham, England, Gros

and Sceliingen, Germany. The di- vision comes under the Allied powers 4th Tactical Air Force which supplies rations.

This time, since the RAF was not equipped to do the job, the Canadians at Langar are handling their own show. They stock about 50,000 different items of equipment, Group Capt. Mccormack said.

Cover Wide Range

These include spare Sabre jet planes. engines and airframe parts. clothing, and a whole range of Canadian-made motor vehicles which must be kept in running or- der-staff cars, station wagons, ambulances. crash and fire trucks, power cranes, aircraft tow tractors transports and 40-passenger buses.

The AMB, which gets most of its equipment from Canada by sea. assists the RAF in Sabre aircraft supplies and sublets repair con- tracts to British industries.

Langar does the job with 800 airmen plus about 250 British civilian hired hands. with only two large warehouses at the airfield. The base relies on quick supply and dispatch of materials and a mechanized accounting system.

"The essence of the operation," Group. Capt. McCormick said, "is quick supply."

Three Bristol frcightcrs. each capable of carrying four or five tons. run a shuttle service to the four Canadian bases. They fly new parts to the stations and loan up with unserviceable items which go back to Lnngar for replacement or repair.

Brilish Complain Of Shadowing By U. S. Ships

on British to For

LONDON. (AP)- owners accused the Sunday of imposing credible" restrictions merchant ships trading Eastern Communist ports.

They said U. S. authorities had detailed naval cutters to "shadow" these ships from one American port to another.

The powerful Chamber of Ship- ping of the United Kingdom-:1

private association - complained that British ships were being "subjected to interference by a

friendly power." Senator Joseph McCarthy was singled out particularly for critic-

ism in the chambers annual re- port. which declared: "It is almost incredible that in

peacetime the U.S.A. should place armed guards on British merchant ships while in port and detail naval cutters to 'shadow' them from one U. 5. port to another."

Comic Touch

Just how the "shadowing" work- ed was not explained in tiie report but it said:

”The drama was lightened by a comic touch when a British s ip obllgingly reduced speed to end ie her US. cieiv to keep .stali.on."

in Washington, spokesmen for both the ll. 5. I'in.V'y and the state department said they knew noth- ing of any such activity and doubt- ed the report.

The British shlpowners said tiicy had accepted licensing controls imposed by the government as a means of preventing the use of their ships by foreign ciiariernrs for carrying strategic materials ll) Communist ports.

"The system worked smoothly," the report said. "and but for the developments in America. it wodld not have hindered owners in carry- ing on their legitimate trade in non-strategic materials with China. "Unfortunately. the repeated and hysterical denunciations of this trade by Senator McCarthy were followed by the imposition by the United States government of further, but ill-defined. restrictloiis on ships trading to Far E:-istcrii Communist ports."
