The War Department desires an artillery and anti-aircraft station on Lake Ontario where approxi- mately between 12,000 and 15,000 troops would be placed in training in long-range target practice over the lake at points where no ob- stacles exist. Although ho defense plans have been made for locating a camp there, the area has been surveyed and is being studied as one of the desired sites under consideration. This has been done, the War De- partment pointed out, witb the view of having the sites and others available with all data prepared, so that in case the army is expand- ed, as now proposed, there would be no delay in building the camps. It was explained that an addi- tional appropriation by Congress would be necessary to develop such a program. When the initial national defense program was aut- horized, the War Department was found ready with camp sites al- ready selected. Fire Destroys Mill, Dweling In Holley, N.Y. Three-hour Blaze Wreaks Heavy Damage and Threatens Houses W thereto thai $1.00 A YEAR-* A An $8,000 blaze swept through a Holley feed mill owned by Fred Redinger, and a house owned by Herman Reamer and threatened several other houses Monday af- ternoon before being brought un- der control by HoUey,.-Albion amd. Brockport- firemen after three hours of hard fighting against the flames. Heavy smoke, visible for miles, spread over the whole village, while sparks ignited a straw stack, also owned by Reamer 500 yards away and threatened six houses in the vicinity. Traffic on Route 31, entering the village, was held up for three hours by the blaze and a New York Central express train delayed for a full hour. The fire, apparently originating from a gasoline engine in the basement of the mill was first dis- covered at 3 p.m. by G. C. Neigh, Rochester, operator of the plant. It was not until 6 p.m. that Holley Fire Chief Irving Wilson pronoun- ced the conflagration under con- trol. The fire spread quickly to the Reamer house close by and by qvening both house and mill were completely destroyed. Damages to the mill were esti- mated at a total of 56,000 in- cluding $1,000 damages to equip- ment. Only part of the contests of the mill was covered by insur- ance. The ruined house was estimated at a value of $1,500 and partially insured. The furnishings of the house, valued at $300, were not insured. Typical U. S. Motorist Revealed By Survey Meet Mr. John Doakes, the ty- pical American motorist. He is be- tween 40 and 45 year old .and has a wife and two children, a boy and a girl. He works and lives in a small community of less than 5,000 inhabitants and the value of his home or farm is between $4,500 and $4,820. The chances are Just about 50-50 that he owns the pro- perty himself. This is the picture of the typi- cal American motorist as revealed by studies of the New York Petro- leum Industries Committee. \Although he is seUt-rcllant and self-supporting, the typical An\- erican motorist's income is rela- tively low, only $20 to $30 week- ly,\ Mr. Cray, secretary of the or- ganization points out. \His bank account shows a balance of $500. and the fsce value c*f \his life in- surance policies total SvOO. 6HASTA DAM PANOEAMA—Down in the canyon of the Sacratftento River, twclvo miles north of Redding, Cal..
