SCOUTS PREPARE
FOR FIELD DAY
Annual Cape Fear Area
Council Event To Be
Held Today

Final plans for the annual Field
Day for the Cape Fear Area coun-
Gil, Boy Scouts of America, to be
held in Fayetteville today, have been
completed. Scout Executive David
Lilies left for Fayetteville yesterday
morning.
Inspection and a street parade
will begin the days events. AT
10 o'clock the Scouts will fall in
by Troops in front of the grand
stand for inspection. Following this
procedure they will parade down
Hay street to the market house.
Appearance in the parade, such as
uniformity, discipline, etc., will be
noted by the inspecting officer.
Other events and activities will
be the compass relay, II o'clock,
materials will be furnished by the
council; O'Grady drill, 1880 o.
clock, no equipment necessary;
signalling, team of four Scouts,
HAS using Morse and semaphore
codes only.
Lunch will be from II to l o.
clock. Since insufficient time is al
lowed to cook a meal, it is suggest
ed that each troop bring a picnic
lunch to be eaten only during the
prescribed lunch period and in the
area assigned to each troop. Each
troop is to have the responsibility
of its own assigned area. Troops
may eat in a cafe provided that
groups are under the leadership
of a Scoutmaster and are to report
back at the High School bowl not
later than one o'clock.
Knot-tying will head the after
moons events. At 2:15 the C o a
stretcher making event will b e
followed by the Scout pace. Each
Scout will run to a point one-half
mile from the starting place and
then return. The Scout returning
closest to IL minutes will be award
ed first place. Scouts missing the
IL minute mark will be disquali-
fled. Only Scouts with the best
mark will count for their troop.
Judges are the most competent
and will make decisions as they
see them.
All troops will return home again
after the days activities. a

fore. asked the various departments
concerned to review the whole posi-
ton as matter OF urgency.
In this matter one must expect to
proceed by trial and error, and also
to carry public opinion along with
us, but what we want Is the great
est measure OF real warning that Is
compatible with what all our peo-
pie are resolved upon, namely, the
active maintenance of war prOduc-
ton. I will not make specific .
announcement today because we
are In negotiation with very i'm
portant bodies concerned of en-
ployers and employed throughout
the country.
Warns Against Feeling
Invasion Is Past.
We want to move with precision
and clarity, and I would like to
have a further opportunity of con-
sidering between the different bod
les that are in consultation with the
government as this is q matter
which affects scores of millions of
people. I will not attempt to make
a specific announcement today, but
such an announcement must be
made in the next week at the latest.
There Is one other point I should
like 10 mention, and that Is the
lighting of streets IN the centers
OF the cities of our country. Winter
Is coming on, and hope we are not
going through all that gloomy bust
ness We went through last year.
I have asked a committee OF re-
sponsible people versed in this mat
ter to meet together to see how we
can make lighting to cheer the peo-
pie during the winter months and
at the same time observe the pur-
poses of the alert and alarm.
1t Is not impossible and l trust I
shall be able to produce some pro-
posals which will necessarily be of a
highly detailed character. No one
must suppose that the danger Of
invasion is past. The secretary for
war Is absolutely right in enjoining
the strictest vigilance upon the
great and growing armies which are
now intrusted in this country to the
command OF Sir Alan Brooke.

Der of members had made repre-
sensations to the government, as 1t
was there duty to do.)
The Minister of Health will be
prepared on application from the
authorities in those areas to make
an advance out of exchequer funds
to enable the authorities to meet
liabilities for which the collectable
rate revenue will not suffice.
These advances will be free of
interest. The term advance in this
case is understood to mean that the
Government retain the right to call
for repayment, but the question of
how far this right will be exercised
will be considered after the war in
the light Of financial circumstances
that then prevail in the areas and
the country generally.
Health Ministry Officials
To Make Inspections.
These advances must be condi-
tional on an examination OF the
estimates of expenditure and reve-
| nue. and the Minister of Health will
arrange for officers of the Ministry
Of Health to visit the towns con-
cerned and to confer with the may
ors and principal officials-very
plucky fellows some of them.
Such conferences will afford an
opportunity Of advising and assist
ing local authorities as to the best
means of securing all reasonable
income consistent with the main
tanning of essential services and also
advising about the collection OF
revenue.
These local authorities will not
in the present circumstances be re-
quired to increase their present rate
of poundage as a condition of hnan-
cial assistance.
1t is recognized that the shortage
Of rate income will involve a deficit
In the rate levied to meet county
council precepts. 1t is understood
that some local authorities are pro-
posing to limit the payments in re-
spect of county precepts to a pro-
portion Of the total rate which rep
resents the county rate they have
been able to collect.
The government proposes to
recognize and validate this arrange
ment. If any unreasonable burden
is thrown on county's resources
the government would not refuse to
consider extending to the County
Council some measure of assistance
We must expect for some time to
come to have to carry on our work
under these strange conditions, but
they are conditions to which the
fortitude and adaptiveness of the
British people will not be found I'M
equal.
Says Britain Won't Shrink
From Any War Of Nerves.
If there is to be, as is suggested
in recent grafton, Qaughter) a
contest of nerves and will power
and endurance in which the whole
British and German people are to
engage, be it sharp or be it long,
we shall not shrink from 1t.
We believe that the spirit and
temperament bred under institutions

Of the conditions cut both ways.
There must not, however, be any
relaxation Of effort or wise precau-
ton, both Of which are needed to
save our ives and save our cause.
I shall not be giving away any
military secret If I say we are very
much better of than we were
few months ago and If the problem
Of invading Great Britain was a
difficult one in June 1t has become
a far more difiicult and far larger
problem in September. While all
these preparations for home de-
Tense have been going forward on
gigantic scale, We have not hesi-
tated to send a continuous stream
Of conveys with reinforcements to
the Middle East.
Eastern Mediterranean
Fleet Strength Doubled.
In particular, a few days ago we
found it possible almost to double
the effective strength Of our fleet
in the Eastern Mediterranean by
sending out some of our most pow
erful vessels to strengthen the nag
of Sir Andrew Cunningham, the
admiral in the Eastern Mediter-
ranean. This movement, plainly
visible to the Italians, was not
molested by them 0aughteD.
Some Of our great ships touched
at Malta on their way and carried
a few things which were needed by
those valiant islanders and their
garrison, who, under the remarkably
resolute Governor, Gen. Dobbie, are
maintaining themselves with the
utmost constancy.
We have every intention of main
tanning our positions there with our
utmost strength and of increasing
our sea power and the control which
follows from sea power throughout
the Mediterranean, not only in the
Eastern basin. but in the Western
basin. In this way, both at home
and abroad, we shall preserve along
our course however the winds may
blow. (Cheers0

Of freedom viii prove more endur-
ing and resilient than anything that
can be got out Of the most efficiently
imposed mechanical discipline
tcheers).
In the light of what we have
learned so far we have come to the
conclusion that the arrangements
for air raid warnings and what is to
be done when they are given require
very considerable changes.
There Is really no use, no good
sense in having these prolonged
banshee howlings daughter and
cheers Of the sirens two or three
times day over wide areas simply
because hostile aircraft are flying
to or from some target which no one
can possibly know or even guess
AL our precautionary regulations
have hitherto been based on this
siren call and I must say admire
the ingenuity Of those who devised
it as means Of spreading alarm.
Indeed, most people now see how
very wise Ulysses was when he
stopped the ears Of his sailors to
siren songs, but had himself tied
firmly to the mast for duty 0augh-
teri. Now that we are settling down
to the job we must have different
arrangements from those devised
before the war. 1t Is right that
everyone should know that the raid
warning is more in the nature of
general alert than of the immi-
hence Of danger to any particular
locality.
In many cases it is physically i'm
possible to give the alarm before
the attack. Incessant alarms would
come to very much the same thing
as no alarms. but while they give
protection very great number of
people take no notice of them. and
they exercise a disturbing influence
on necessary war work.
Explains Regulations for
Response to Alarms.
All our regulations have taught
people that they should take a
whole series Of steps when the sirens
sound and 1t is no use having official
regulations which enjoin immediate
respect for alarms when all kinds Of
exhortations are given unofficially
to disregard them and 60 on working
In our own case today, 1t was felt
that the raid warning should be
taken merely as an alert, but If
special circumstances indicated the
proximity of danger the conditions
OF alarm should Supervene, and that
is exactly what we did on receiving
information that there was danger
Of particular kind in the vicinity
When that special condition depart
ed We Immediately resumed our
work under conditions Of alert until
the all clear which has just now
sounded and has restored us to
normal.
All our regulations require to be
shaped on the new basis which is
being established by actual contact
with events. Responsibility to give
clear guidance to the public in time
of war is imposed on His Majesty's
government. In order to preserve
