The gasoline or kerosene stove, or the alcohol stove using methyl spirits, is now in common usage in the north. Here, again, it has saved the building of camp fires plus, of course, the inconvenience of gather- ing wood. Experienced rangers now used the “gas” stove in their patrol trips through the forests. Officials— warn, however, that in using the gasoline stove a funnel of the trans- parent variety should be-used in fil-

els, commonly used, give: no indic- tion of the height of the fuel in the tank and, not infrequently, some gasqline is spilled. An incautiously

The fact that tourist activites can be developed along lines of forest conservation is a most interesting one. It points up the importance of well-directed publicity to this end, and to the stake which every pro- vince has in providing camping site facilities that are conducive to the saiety and protection of these natur- al resources.

One ‘stage of a Thor-Able rocket failed and a navigation satellite did not go into orbit. Even an “old- fashioned” Snark guided missile nose-dived to earth and blew up.

A significant thing about these failures, of course, is that they were freely reported in the American press. We do not know how many failures the Russians had; only news of their successes is announced. But these successes indicate that they are still definitely in the lead. This despite the fact that since launching its first satellite, Explor- er 1, on Jan. 31, 1958, the U.S. has put into orbit:a larger number of satellites than the Russians, eight of them believed to be still in orbit, and - that the biggest one of these, the 4-ton Atlas project launched last December, relayed back to earth the first message by human voice from outer space. .

The recent rash of mishaps at Cape Canaveral may be due to a rush to equal or surpass the Soviets without proper préparation in the pro- pulsion and guidance field. No doubt this will lead to a complete overhaul- ing of Washington’s rocket program,

‘and to substantial gains. in, future. In the meantime, however, nothing | is to be gained by minimizing Russia’s amazing progress since it put the first sputnik into orbit around the earth two years ago. We can only hope that these achievements will, as is claimed, be conducive to world progress in astronomy ‘and other peaceful pursuits, rather than to universal destruction.

Aiding Forest Protection

In this Province, as elsewhere throughout Canada, a noteworthy de- | velopment in the past few years has been the increased popularity of camping. One of the results of this ‘could be the increased respect of people in general for the country’s natural resources. Despite the fact that record numbers of tourists and travellers have been in the Canad- ian woods this summer, the forest fire toll is down from last year.

In Ontario, officials of the Lands and Forests Department state that 4 the records are improving every year. More people than-ever before are us- ing the. fatilities of nearly 100 pro- vincial parks and are not only under closer supervision as a result, but are personally becoming aware of the fire danger. They are interested

Like a voice from the past is this tirade from a leading Laborite in the British election campaign. The Con- servatives, he said, are “the party of jingoism and international anarchy, the party of out-of-date colonialism, the ny of Cyprus and Suez, the party of privilege, the party of snobs and the servile and the stuffed Shirt. The party that must go—for the good of Britain and the welfare of the world.” We should like to hear Sir Winston Churchill on that theme!

Convalescence from the current U.S. steel strike will be more pain- ful than the strike itself, according to an industrial magazine. The strike that started July 15 has caused dir- ect losses of over $3,343 million, ‘with irfdirect losses estimated at $6,- Besides the 500,000 steelworkers who struck, another 175,000 have been laid, off mostly in coal mining and railway industries. The industry won’t reach 90 per cent of-shipping capacity until about six weeks after-the end of the strike, and shortages will be most severe for the first 30 days of this period. —

FIRE CRACKER MENACE Sir.—At the request of a num- ber of responsible citizens, I take

this opportunity to write the fol- |

lowing letter in reference \o fire crackers.

Owing to the widespread misuse of these items, it was found nec- essary to prohibit their _ being bought, sold or kept in any part of this Province. This was done by Fire Prevention Act, Order in Council, dated October 19. 1959 and amended‘on Aug. 2. 1951 and November 17, 1952. See also Royal Gazette, Vol. LXXVIH - No. 48, Ciarlotietown, P.E.. Nov. 22, 1952. These regulations prohibit

| Toy Caps, Chinese Crackers, ‘Fire

Crackers’, Rockets and Salutes. The reason for this prohibition. was the unsupervised use of fire-

works by children and teenagers |

in such a way that they became a danger to the life.and limb of the users themselves, to other zens and to the destruction of property.. Should amy cynic fee that these dangers are over stressed, may we who have seen the resiflts again draw attention to the fact, that these fire crack-

» ers are éxtremely dangerous, and

their continued use, apart from being illegal, may cause unneces- sary injuries.

We are gratified to say that our merchants have fully eom- plied with the law, and for a year or two the absence of fire crackers was noted. However as time went on a certain amount of them began to turn up in the Pro- vince;?coming in by. automobile, by C.N. Express and, we believe some even by mail. In the main they were brought in by boys. mostly perliaps without the con- sent or knowledge of the parents.

The Polices are aware of the fact that orders are already in the mail to points outside the Province to insure a supply for Hallowe'en. We feel that our ef- forts alone will not be enough to suppress the use of these danger- ous items, so we are asking: the support of all parents or guar- dians to assist us supervision, admonition and advice to those under their care and guidance.

We do not feel that in this re- gard we are asking too much. A great explorer and historian once said “‘To save one life is better than to found a new empire.’ We say, if our combined efforts can save some child from being blind- ed or maimed for life, then our

efforts will -hot have been in * vain, j 1 am, Sir, etc, C.W. MACARTHUR Chief of Police
