Moving The Diamond Industry An interesting story 0f the way new import- ant, industry and 4 Nazis is told Ln the overseas edition of the British Jeweler, bv J. C. Gin- rier, head of a firm of British dia- mond cutteis. Previous to the invasion of Bel- gium Mr. G.nder had been in the habit of traveilmgb every fortnight to 8.1155015 by air uyinq diamonds. On May 9 last year, he was Just about to take off by airplane for Belgium when the news came of the occupation of Brussels and An- twerp and the destructive bombard- ment of Rotterdam. His policy had been. and was, to buy all the dia- monds which could be obtained to prevent the Germans getting them These precious stones can always be realized for foreign currency and the smaller ones, "industrial dia- monds", are esse “ i for precision work in factories, for airplane cn- gines and for other vital purposes. "Diamond merchants are like one big ianrly”. says Mr. Gindei", ‘by l-iccping in touch with friends and acquaintances we succeeded in preventing the Germans. either from selling to us through Dutch and Belgian merchants diamonds they had polished themselves, or from buying industrial stones. Among the adventures related are those of certain Hollanders who wczit buck to Amsterdam on a Bri- tish destioyer and got nearly all the diamonds out of safe depcslts.

Preparations had been - lng on since April and half of e machinery ordered from Belgium had already arrived. but the other halt was seized by the Nazis at Antwerp. “That was a blow," continues Mr. Cinder, "so I cabled my brother in Toronto to buy up all the diamond cutting machinery he could lay his trends on New Yor ."

R. Brennan. the president presiding. There were many matters up for discussion- Mayor Campbell referred to Prev" ious discussions on the matter of having some of the meet supplied to the airport here, killed and m- epected at the Summer-side abat- toir. He said that he had taken the matter up with the Drill)" Mil-him‘ ties at Ottawa and was awaiting i! reply. l-Ie said that he had spoken to a local cattle buyer who assur- ed him that s. high grade of bee! could be bought in the district if there was the danend. He had also asked m. Rushton. a government inspector who is stationed at Jen- kins Canning Factory. to look over the abattoir and he had spoken very highly of the building and its equipment which he declared would be quite capable of taking care of all the beef required at the airport. Several members spoke on the matter stating that it would be a good thing for the farmers. Mr. J. E. Dalton who moved a resolution that the board support the town in this matter, said that it would en- courage the farmers to raise more and better cattle if they were given the incentive. Mr. B. W. Robinson seconded the motion. Mr. Frank MacKenzie brought up the matter of fire protection and stated that in the recent two dis- astrous fires in the town there had been complaints that there was not sufficient pressure to effectively deal with a serious fire and that. many of the firemen were too old. Several members spoke on the mat- ter and said this was a very impor- tant matter. Mayor Campbell stat- ed that he had heard remarks and complaints (at the time of the Reed's warehouse fire), that there was "not sufficient pressure and that there was an agitation for a pumper but he didn't think that was necessary. He had been on theta l work and he said the pressure was or two men to manipulate the hose and that the pressure of water tore roof. Mayor Campbell said he had spoken to the firemen at the time about. the matter and had gone into the situa- tion very thoroughly and intend- ed as soon as the snow is gone to have a proper test of all hydrants and see to it that regular fire drills are carried out with proper tests each month. Speaking in defense of the older firemen Mani‘ Camp- bell stated that t-he Summerside firemen had one of the proudest and finest records in Canada and had always responded to duty and had done their duty well.

Now, one by one. they are going out oi business as the new economic victims of this war. No members of Parliament are asking questions about them. No rsrganvations are pleading their cause for government assistance which would tide them over their present difficulties. On the contray, government agencies are hoping that this slice of British economic life will shrink even mozc. Because in war time your mach=ne achieves greater efficiency when the coils are few. And having to supply thousands of small shopkeepers with the ROOds that will keep them alive is waste motion which impedes the national war effort.
