Italians Used Red Cross, Churches, Ete. for W ar Uses kasien). Kavuskasing, Cochrane and some Kirkland Lake girls will attend this camp. (By Hiram Blauveltâ€"in a despajuch from Pretoria ‘to the New York Herald Tribune.) Contrary to the popular belief that the Red Cross symbol is a protection to hospitals, hospital ships, ambulances and other services caring for the ill and wounded, I have learned from personal observation that in this war the Red Cross serves merely to attract the enemy‘s attention and intensify his attacks. Throughout the East African camâ€" paign the Italians were guilty of misâ€" use of small dispensaries installed at the ends of large ammunition depots, on which large Red Cross signs were painted at intervals along the entire roof, sparing the building from atâ€" tacks by British bombers. This ruse was not discovered until attacking ground troops captured the buildings. At half a dozeon airdromes from Mogadiscio to Addis Ababa, Italians planted "ambulance ‘planes" on the eground in the midst of fighter ships to appeal to the mercy of attacking South African pilots. The dummy ‘planes were painted white with large Red Cross symbols on the sides and wings. These white ‘planes, known now to the British as "white rabbits," were discovered â€" floating as observation ‘planes and maintaining communicaâ€" tions for the Italian forces. Hospital and church towers were used by the Italians as observation points and radio towers. The Italians used the abandoned British Legation in Addis Ababa as a munition dump, where they stored more than 4,000,000 rounds of smallâ€" calibre ammunition, artillery shells and rifles. Cannon and additional heavy ammunition were to be found under the beautiful gardens, which the Italâ€" ians were confident would not be bombed by Royal Air Force pilots. Catholic missions at Diredawa were found by the British invaders to conâ€" tain huge stories of munilions, which â€"the fleeing Italians had abandoned. Inside the walls were stored great quantities of â€" rifle cartridges, and Tommy guns and automatice pistols were found even in the sisters‘ bedâ€" rooms. Leslie Howden, of Savard township, near Englehart, was fined $25.00 and costs for setting fire to grass without a permit. The fire set by Howden is said to have golten out of control and burned across 490 acres of bushland before it was controlled. before it was controlled. Crown evidence was given by Ernest Gardiner, deputy Chief Ranger from Englehart and Provincial Constable Lee Walker, also stationed at Engleâ€" hart. Both officials told the court that they did not believe the firing of the grass to be a deliberate move to desâ€" trovy timberland. The fine imposed for the offence. * London, July 19â€"Czechoâ€"Slovak miliâ€" tary units, operating under the Red Army high command, it was agreed in a mutual aid and support treaty signed by representatives of Russia and the government of Czechoâ€"Slovakia at the Russian embassy here this week.
