i i The federal governments part civil defence is mainly to ordinate provincial with the- overall plan of the country event of an enemy attack It must provide direction assist- training But as Health Minister Paul Martin has said defence cannot be imposed lrom the top No government not even the federal government can do this alone he said in a recent speech Under Canadas const- setup the job of

need of civil defence in Canada as far back as when It appointed F as federal civil defence co-ordin- At that time civil defence came under jurisdiction of the Department of Health and Wei- Jl fare with Mr Martin as the re- CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IS BUILDING A BETTER COMMUNITY sponsible cabinet minister A federalprovincial con ference of civil defence officials agreed on which government would share what responsibili ties It was agreed that the Federal government would operate a central CD training school for civil defence specialists The Canadian Civil Defence College was established at On tario miles northwest of Ot tawa More than persons have been trained by the federal civil defence organization so far and Canada now has some CD workers including firemen policemen etc where normal jobs fulfill a CD func tion and volunteers- Courses are held at the college continuously except for the month of August when it closes for vacation Its staff of about 20 has given courses to police chiefs fire chief doctors indus trial personnel and many other groups from across Canada- Through the Health Depart ments information services the federal CD organization also has carried on an intensive edu cational campaign to acquaint Canadians with the importance and function of civil defence The federal government is re sponsible for cooperation with United States CD planners and establishment of a warning sys tem to tip the country of any possible enemy attack It is stockpiling medical supplies at strategic points across Canada It has provided essential CD equipment training manuals and publications It agreed to carry out research on civil defence through govern ment research establishments and to help the provinces by paying onethird the cost to fire hose couplings Ontario Alberta and British Columbia are the only provinces so far to take advantage of this arrangement which makes it pos sible for fire equipment from one town to be used in any other town in the province These are the chief functions of the federal CD organization in peacetime Should war come it would also Warn of an oncoming at tack through electronic devices being built around the rim of the continent by ground observer corps and other information sources 2 Coordinate interprovincial movement of aid to provinces and municipalities under attack and distribute the federal stock pile of attack supplies Coordinate the nationwide jobs of other federal agencies and keep the prime minister and the people informed of the at tacks effects Participate in decisions con cerning emergency restoration of communications transportation and other essential functions But in the words of Mr Mar tin again Senior governments can offer guidance planning and financial assistance but the successful prosecution of a civil defence program depends in the last an alysis on the participation of individual citizens and on com munity leadership This Badge km S ft THE FORCE PROVIDES A

we have watched the lovely growth of character and talent which to us and many others verges on genius Through a long career of teaching I saw children who were clever and some who had talent but they lacked the touch of divine fire which separates talent from genius Another thing which marks the difference is that goes to the piano for fun and enjoyment as well work She has never been or had to be

specialists in crime detection and suppression For all we know those pulp maga zines of yesterday may hold the answer to the question of capi tal punishment for the future Whenever Doc Savage captured a murderer that man would be taken to Savages secret labora tories where famous medical surgeons would operate on his brain obliterating all criminal of the past sending him out again into the world worthwhile know ledge he had gained in his life time This sort of thing of course run only ho wishful thinking now but medical science is daily gaming knowledge who knows maybe some future gen end ion will benefit by fltloii of our prayers and barbaric executions will become a thing of the past The very thought of lime men waiting to be sent to deaths by their men makes even the most stoic wonder

dence that capital punishment either docs or does not deter the crimes especially murder for which capital punishment is Im posed The murder rate is high er in many slates where execu tions are the law but criminolo gists believe that historic mores of the region have more to do with the murder rate than docs the matter of punishments Many a man tried for murder has been sot free because of a reluctant jury On the other hand It is reasonable to assume that an innocent man at one time or another has boon Imia Allen feature writer- with Front Page Detective Magav his to say have often wondered if there would be any executions it judges and jurymen personally had to pull the deathswitch even had to watch the results of its pulling Do men ever get so hopeless useless and lost as to to justify extermination by their betters I will always doubt it after seeing prisoners many of whom had committed greater crimes than those who wore executed show more un derstanding and than we who were seeing justice done I will always believe that the worst people deserve the chance to live and will prove to he of more use alive than dead For that night heard Mast mem sing Night in the deep
