Communists Agree To Bed Cross Visits To"POW

Written for the Associated press service by Christopher Bi-adby. secretary of the Church of England Information Board.

LONVDON, Feb. ll-(AP)-"I am the resurrection and the life. palth the Lord; be that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liv- elh and bellevcth in me shall nev- er die." (St. John II, V 25-26).

These challenging words from the Scriptures illustrate the sim- pic but dignified service which it'll be held for the King at St. George's Chapel, Windsor.

One of the treasures that is shared by sovereign and citizen llllle is the rich heritage of the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England.

The dignity of the occasion is matched by the directness of the words and melodies of the burial rervice which ends with the aft- quoted phrases of the prayer of committal:

"Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust: in the sure and certain hope of the resur- rection to eternal life. . . "

The Chapel of St. George Windsor is one of the royal. those foundations stand as evidence of the un- broken link between the crown and the established Church of England.

The chapel Royal is attached to the court and in theory should move from place to place with the court. It is not subject to the jurisdlction of the bishop of the diocese.

St. George's Cha-pcl has been associated for centuries with that ancient. order of chivalry, the Order of the Garter, whose head is the Sovereign. The chapel was begun by Edward IV. who is buried there, nearly 500 years 310.

On either side of the chancel- the place allocated to the Knights of the Garter-are carved stalls of darkened oak, one for each

design of its occupant.

The King will be laili to rest in a vault under the chapel.

The final order of the service has not yet been finally approv- ed. but it will almost certainly Dmceed in this way:

LONDON. Feb. 14-(Reuters) - Dr. J. C. Heenun, Roman Catholic Bishop of Leeds, today criticized the BBC for "wrapping the na- tions in organized gloom" because of the death of the King.

The BBC, in government mono- poly. shut down for the day ex- cept for hourly news and weather rcportl after announcing the King's death last. Wednesday. It since has banned all light music and entertainment.

Speaking at n memorial service for the King M. St. Anne Catli- edrul in Leeds, Bishop Hccnan said:

"I cannot think that the mem- ory of our Gracious King was well- served either by the melo- drama or prolonged silence: on the day of his death or by the sombre and mlrthlcss programs which our fellow countrymen were offered without alternative for more than Ii week."

New, Air Horn Equipment Installation Under, Way T

Installation of the new air horn equipment for the City Fire De- partment is pr ceeding satis- factorily. At the present time workmen areuninslplllng a ifive. horsepower electric compressor it. n- section:-of the basement of-t'Olty Hall at theuoutheast corner.

A trapdoor was cut. in the floor of a small storage room and the large green compressor was iii- stallcd directly below to, permit- of easy access. On the floor above will be installed two tankseonc

by 8' and another slightly smaller immediately above it. They will hold compressed air. Both tanks are reported as being on their way here and are expect- ed to arrive-shortly.

When installation of the new fire warning system is completed Fire Chief H. H. Jewell estimates that the sound will carry distance of nine miles. This will represent a great improvement over the ancient fire bell which now signals a fire in the city. Complaints have long been heard that all too frequently the sound of the bell cannot be heard in many parts of Charlottetown and this has been particularly true when there has been 1 strong wind blowing.

Fire Chief Jewell expressed the hope that the final installation would see a ':tlming" device at.- tachcd to the button used to start the air horn blowing. This would permit the engineer on duty at the time of a report of fire to start the horn and then attend to the many duties neces- sary to get the fire fighting equip- ment underway.

The individual firemen will continue to be notified of a fire in the present manner. Each of them has a warning bell in his home which rings when an alarm comes into the Fire Hall. some members also have alarm sys- tems installed in their places of business for daytime notification. Other firemen respond to the call of the tire bcll tolling.

Just how the location of a fire may be announced by the new air horn system is not known pending tests to see locally how the new mechanism actually per- forms. At present the tolling of the fire bell tells the ward in which the tire is located by ring- ing. after the general alarm. once, twice or ulp to five times to des- ignate the particular ward.

Communiii Bald Hurled Back " By ll.N. Troops

By Milo Farnetl

SEOUL, Feb. 15 - (Friday) - (AlP)-Thc Communists last night broke the quiet of the Korean battlelines with a 1.100-man at- tack that was shattered by a storm of Allied fire on the east- ern front.

it was the largest Communist attack in four weeks or more.

The Communists threw out feel- er thrusts all along the 155-mile front, testing the strong Allied defences. About 200 reds were in one raiding party that hit the western sector of the long line.

The attack in the east rolled down Mundung valley and wash-l ed up against Allied hill positions. on both flanks, a field disipatchi said.

The Communists, believed to be Chinese, struck behind an artil- lery cover, but this advance pre-

paration did no good. Allied mortar and artillery fire burst among the Reds.

The struggle raged for an hour. One Allied unit. was almost sur- rounded. It hurled back the Reds without it. casualty of its own.

Then the Reds began their re- treat behind a. smoke screen. The smoke prevented an immed- iate Allied estimate of casualties.

On the western front near Yon- chon, which is only 24 miles northeast of the Panmlunjom truce conference site. a reinforced Red company fought for two hours. Communist small arms fire, artillery and mortars drove Allied troops out of their pos- itions. Then the U. N. troops went back and found the Com- munists had taken off. .

Another Red platoon attacked northwest of Yonchon. The Al- lies withdrew again, then re- occupicd the point.

In the air war a. flight of 30 Communist jets tried to block Allied fighter-bombers on a rail mission. U. S. Sabre jets chased off the Russian-built Migs" before they could fire a shot.

The Sabres claimed-damage to one Mig.

cllll Figures Show Large Decline In Januaryshipments

A heavy drop of 988 carloads of export freight from this Province during January as compared to the same month of last year was almost entirely accounted for by the heavy decrease of shipments of potatoes and roughwood.

January 1951 showed a. total of 1998 carloads being shipped from here while this January the figure was only 1010. A sharp decrease in the number of carloads of potatoes from 1433 to 579 accounted for 851 cars while rougihwood dropped from 196 carloads down to 87.

During the same period imports showed a slight increase rising from 1014 cars to 1060.

A majority of exports via the C. N. R. Borden to Cape Tormentine car ferry route remained steady by comparison with the same month of last year. Principal among them. with figures for last year. were livestock 87 and 92; less carloncls 69 and 73; meats 13 and 20; outs l and 15: starch 4 and 6:
