Fire Destroys Barn Nea_r_0'i.eary

Breaking out about 10:30 yes- terday morning, fire destroyed a medium sized barn and two stacks of hay and threatened to destroy a larger barn, dwelling and gar- age, the property of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Gay. who live about a. mile from O'Leary Village. It was brought under control and exting- uished through the efforts of the OLeary‘ Fire Department and the assistance of neighbors.

The fire started in one of the hay stacks and quickly spread to the other one and then to the building. Shortly before. men had been working at the stack halti- ing a load of hay away. The barn housed considerable machinery and some potatoes but fortunately all machinery was saved.

‘The fact. that, the wind was blowing off the other buildings contrlibuted ic the avoidance of what might have been e. much more serious loss. Even at that. the burning bits of hay swirled around in all directions and a ntwinber of times the larger barn caught and some shingles had to be ripped off the roof to save it. The fire in the hay stacks was fought by sticking a hay fork lrt them and hauling parts of them out into a field with a tractor.

New Air Force: Officer For S'Side

“King Cmdr. D. A. Willis, D. I". C., of Stoney Creek, Ontario, has arrived at the R. C. A. F. station. Summcrside, to take over the position of officer commanding the air navigation school, succeeding Sqdn. Ldr. W. C. Langstaff, D. F. 0., who has been posted to Air Force headquarters, Ottawa. Wing ‘Cmdr. Willis will serve under Vving Cmdr. G. R. l". Gram, who is the commanding officer of the Summerside station.

Wing Cmdr. Willis comes to his new duties with an impressive background of service with the R. A. F., the U. S. Air Force and later the R. C. A. F. '

In 1907 a scheme was started whereby a group of Canadians could Join the R. A. F. This was a mutual arrangement between the R. A. F. and the R. C. A. F. and Wing Cmdr. Willis was one of the first to Join. He proceeded to England and in 1988 after finishing flying training school went to a navigation school at Marston and earned his second class navigators ticket and also astro extension qualifications. 1n the some year he tw-nt as squadron navigation oftitcar to l0 Bomber Squadron and in October, 1940. was made station navigation officer and in August of the same year was ap- pointed group navigation officer. During this period he spent ten and n. half months in hospital from wounds received while on oprraiinns. 1n "to spring of 101B he came

Big Planes Due In S'Side Today From Ar_c__lic Tour

Completing two weeks qaent in the Arctic carrying out training flights over that difficult country. the two Lancasters. Zenith and Polaris. return f0 their home hase at Svummerside this morning

with their crews and the nine members of the first specialist navigation course. The trip was

made to give this course experience in polar navigation and with its conclusion the six months course comes to an end.

Squadron Leader W. L. Gillespie of Summerside and Toronto was in charge of the flights. The aircraft are expected to touch down at l0 o'clock standard time this morning, completing a non-stop flight from Whitehorse. Y. T. This flight will be about 3.000 miles longer than the non-stop flight from Sacra- mento, California. which was completed early last winter.

The next specialist course will not commence till nest October as it is planned to have only one a year-S

ssuéufi Makes History

O/ITAWA. May 6-tOP)—Fcr the first time in its history an R.C.A.F. aircrdft, has flown over the Nlorth Pole, Air Force head- quarters announced today.

The flight, which officials tie- scrlbed as "of no special signific- ance. apart from the novelty of the thing," was made by one of two Lancaster planes engaged in

advanced navigation exercises at Whitehorse, N.W.'1‘. The two aircraft. Zenith and

Polaris, have been making navig- ational flights in the Arctic for the last two weeks. to give spec- ialist navigation students from the air navigation school at Summer- side. P.E.f., experience in flying in high altitudes.

1t was not immediately known here which of the aircraft made the historic trip over the geogra- phic top of the world. The flight took place last Monday from Kit- iygazuit. near the mouth of the MacKenzie River. where the Air Force has landing facilities. but vmrd did not reach headquarters until today. ‘

The Zenith and Polaris are scheduled to return to Summer- slde tomorrow.

Dairy Products

The dgiry situation has deter- iorated since last week. Our nor- mal markets at mainland points have become, to some extent at least, saturated with supply. Some movement is taking place to Newfoundland at 60c fo.o.b. boat. The Jobbing price of Hali- fax is we. and St. John 62'..-c. Our Jc/obing price trs definitely in line with these prices at 62c but somebody threw a monkey wrench into the machinery with the result that jabbing at char. lnttetown has been dotvn to bit-g. Why, it is dillficult to understand. The bis-me has been directed at our large business firms who. it was stated. imported butter from New Brunswick. A contact; with these fintns indicates that such a

situation did not exist. It would be difficult to understand ltew firms could inqiort butter from

New Brunswick where the Jobbing price is 6l‘-.-c, pay ile cost to Charlottetown, and sell at. a job- bing price of 5950.

Our supplies tn this Province B" not IHBG- Our Co-operatives have been attempting to maintain the price at 62c.

The question is who broke through this level? With the sit- nation as it is there would seem to be no definite reason why the price of butter should have drop- ped 2¥6o overnight.‘

The quicker the nigger is poked out of the wcodpile and we find "W “*5? these things are taking place the better for all concerned. Our. producers are entitled, under the unfortunate competition they are now meeting. to every consid- eration. Tlhey should know just Why prices suddenly deteriorate and what and who Ls the cause of such deterioration.
