not employed by the government.
At the bench, Vito Marcantonio,
of New York, chief defense coun-
sci, told Judge Mcclure that if
his plan were followed, there
would be no colored persons on
the jury. Judge MCGUIRE agreed
that he did not want 10 do that.
The jury box was filled, after
questioning of the prospective

When both sides had exercised

Army Sets Hearing
As Cape Cod Protests
Firing Range Extension

The Army today gave assurance
that no action will be taken on
the proposed enlargement of
Camp Wellfeet ti-aircraft artil-
Ilery firing range on Cape Cod,
Mass, pending results of a previ-
ously announced public hearing
|Itomorrow at Wellfleet, Mass.
Residents Of the area have pro-
tested, in letter to The Star.
that the proposed enlargement of
the range would gravely damage
the fishing industry and vacation
trade, which provide the liveli-
hood of most Cape Codders.
However. the Army countered
|Itoday that the proposed restricted
area is entirely on the water and
adjoins the shore line only within
the limits of Camp Wellfleet.
Slight Extension Proposed.
'"The public will not be denied
the use of beaches along the shore
outside the camp limits" a
spokesman declared.
THE proposal is to extend the
restricted area slightly and to
draw up regulations in the interest
of navigation and national de-
|Ifense and to afford better protec-
ton of life and property" he said.
Previously, no specific regula-
tions had been issued but the
required Notices to Mariners"
were given when the area was
to be used.
Brig. Gen. Arnold J. Funk,
commanding general of Camp Ed
wards, Mass, requested establish
ment of the restricted area. 1t is
to be used for antiaircraft firing
practice and for air-to-ground
phases of aerial gunnery. A
smaller area at the some location
i has been used on an intermittent
basis by antiaircraft batteries and
4 fighter planes.
I Decision Here.
I 1t. Gen. Lewis A. Pick, Chief of
Engineers, announced that the
New England Division would con-
duct the hearing and that full
opportunity will be given for all
interested persons to express their
views"
/ Following the hearing the final
approval or disapproval Of the
plans will be made by the Army
Department here.
The letter to The Star COM
planned that the Army announced
the plans on August 13 without
warning and without consultation
with civilian agencies ignor-
ing the fact that the expansion
would hit sharply at the basic
economy of the area.
a.. There is no reason to think
that it is essential to national Sc
Ecurity." the letter stated. THE
national interest comes first with
all of us: but there would seem
to be an obligation on the part
Iof the Army, when it demands
large sacrifices from a commun-
!ity. to demonstrate that the ma
tional interest is being served"

Speaking of the problems the

more colored children attending

decreasing, as they migrate to the

Predict 5000 Will
Serve In Civil
Defense Locally

by a warden. Chief Weaver, as
Director of Training and Opera
tions, will have as one of his re-
sponsibilities the formation of the
Warden Service. He did an excel
lent job in civilian defense during
World War II, and is the ideal
man to head up the organization
this time"
1t is requested that East Cleve-
landers who wish to volunteer for
Civil Defense positions wait until
a general call for registration is
issued. 1t is expected that this call
will come within the next 80 days,
or earlier if the top echelon of the
organization is completed. Two top
staff directors have not yet been
named, but Directors H. S. Weaver,
Nelson Kamuf and Wayne Blough
are working now to perfect their
divisional organizations.
Meanwhile, Dover and the civil
defense staff are meeting with
county officials, local organizations
and the American Red Cross in an
effort to work out the details of
civil defense both at the county
and at local levels.
The first civil defense staff meet
ing was held last week at the
commission chamber in City Hall.
The civil defense office is open
between 1870 and 1000 p. m., and
is located on the first floor at
City Hall.
