Muskeg. a pest soil. is found over some 1.000.000 square miles in north central Canada. though dis- tribution varies. In any event a knowledge of muskeg is important in defence planning or in battle tactics. Here is an example: Defending troops are strung out on one side of s bog. If inter- pretation of photographs of e muskeg shows that vehicles or men cannot. move across the bog without getting mired, that area can be lightly defended. If there pre.found to be access. points through the muskeg, defence could be concentrated at those points. DETERMINE SAFE SITES Further, a knowlscuzs of muskeg fan determine ssfs sites for build- H8.

The Star of Beth- Mary and Joseph with the lehem can be seen shining through the stable door while wisemen offer their gifts to cattle graze nearby on the straw covered floor. To Defence servers in the air to tell the type of muskeg over which they are passing. Muskeg is covered with vegetation but under the surface soil there are vast differences. some muskeg is so swampy it won't bear a man's weight. Or it. can be firm enough to carry a tank. An interesting sidelight. on Prof. R.adforth's I aumental task is that it may be useful in lnterpretr ing terrain in Russia which comes under the same climatic conditions as the Canadian ground which he has studied. Seek Information On Montreal Police Changes MONTREAL (CP)-Mayor Jean Drapeau was urged Monday to give his 99-member city council addit- ional information on recent, top- level changes in the police depart- ment. Marcel Lafaiile, leader of the council. said councillors are in the dark about the changes. He asked that a special meeting of the coun- cil-closed if necessary-be called to hear the reasons for the changes. In a statement. Mr. Laiaille re- ferred to 3 special press confer- ence Sunday at which Mayor Drap- eau said the administration wants all its act.s to be in the open. "I think they should start by in- forming councillors of these mat- ters which seem of primary im- portance." the statement said. It added that councillors could not Barter's Filmk Lab.

He captured the'fancy of the Allied world by replying to a Ger- man demand for surrender with one word: "Nuts." answer legitimate questions from their electors. Mr. Lafaille did not mention spec- ific incidents but presumably he was referring to the appointment of Pacifique Plants as the police force's assistant director, s. job from which he was fired in 1948 for ”lnsu'bordination." Mrg Plante was sworn in Monday. Following Mr. Planted appoint- ment. assistant director Wilfrid Bourdon. awe former head of the detective bureau. resigned. There has been speculation more moves are pending. PREACHEWS SIP BRAINTREE. England (CP) - Authorities of this Essex munici- pality charged the Congregational church 15 shillings a year for water.
