Japanese sayon the attitude of Germany and Italy to the far eastern colonies of Francs, Britain and Holland.

Details on the distribution of training centres for the recruits announced today give a picture of the organization. In .30 training centres scattered across the coun- try 29.750 men will be trained each month. Each centre will handle about 1.- ling 1,250, The grand total trained in 1o training periods of 30 days each will be 297.500 To obtain this number of men. calls will go out to single men m various age groups starting with age 21. The calls will go to men who are not already members of the non-perznanent Militia.

For High Courage LONDON, Aug. 2 —(C'P) 40am Daphne Mary Pearson, chic in her trim grey uniform with a ribbon medal of the OB E. over her breast pocket, has returned to duty “ful- ly recovered and fit." to assume more onerous duties as assistant section officer in the women's aux- iliary air force. Jcao. who used to bee corpor- al, had been convalescing since last May when she displayed such courage and presence of mind site was credited with saving the life of an injured flying officer —for which she became the first woman in this war to be awarded the Or- rier of the British Empire for mil- itary service. The story goes back to a. spring night when the 29-year-old cor- poral, struggling into bed after a tough day's work at a. coastal com- mand station, sat up suddenly and listened intently to the roar of a motor of an airplane. Her ear. made sensitive to the tones of a motor tarcugh years of flying. had caught something. She leaped from the bed and with a few hastly- donned clot-hes raced into the tiizhtks blackness. Almost in front of her there was a terrific crash. Flames sprouted into the air. She raced t0 the- scene and helped two airmen hatii the body of an unconscious officer from a blazing shell. To a comparatively safe distance they carried the form and then the two men turned to clear the way for a hastily -summoned am- btranoe. They were straining at a wire fence when a muffled explo- sicn filled the air with black smoke and flaming debris. The fuel tank had gone. And there still wen" bombs aboard. ‘Iihey shouted a warning and Joan looked in ViIiD for something with which to pro- tcct her helplem charge. She fell to her knees and crouch- ed over the prostrate form.. . there was a deafening roar....aii kinds of missiles screeched through the thick air... smoke and fumes sneaked across the field where Joan still crcuched amid a shower of burning embei's.... Vlhcu stretcher-bearers groped their way to the scene. Joan was unconscious. still shielding the helpless officer. Beautiful Blonde Was Film- star; ls Refugee Now AN EAST COAST CANADIAN PORT.
