MUCH INTEREST IN AREA PLANE SPOTTER POST Town of Beekmantown Post Highly Praised For Enthusiasm There is one spot at least in Clinton county, where defense act- ivities from the standpoint of the ground observer, better known as airplane spotters, is taken seriously. That spot is known officially \as Observation Post No. 20-F. I t is located on what is known as the Military Turnpike in school district No. 5. The little white school house is the scene of busy activities. There are approximately 125 members who have volunteered thejr services. The average distance :,., *':'.t,'|! Jlllii-. ,ilil i *W1I)'' .1)1 .til<' .iprm.eih eonie tell miles, making ;t round trip of twenty miles. The vol- unteers have regular shifts. Work- ing in pairs they spend four hours on duty. Sometimes it is the hus- band and wife but however they are paired off, a plane coming within hearing would at once be reported to the \Filter Room\ of the Interceptor Command at Al- bany. Twenty-four hours a day some one is on duty. Through the ingenuity of Rev. Lawrence E. Mallette, Roman Cath- olic priest at Sciota, a sound de- vice has been constructed and in - stalled in the school and so deli- cately is it tuned that a child run- ning down the highway some dis- tance from the school, fills the room with the noise of his pass- ing. Any plane approaching can be detected before it can be seen. Now that school has commenced, both teacher and pupils cooperated and vigil during school hours so that the volunteers find time to do fcheii farm work without too much inter- ference. However, t o the credit of the men and women who are man- ning this observation post, despite the scarcity of farm labor and the extra labor in harvesting their crops, they have not neglected to keep their lonely watch night and day. Wednesday night, Verian D. Otis; city commissioner of public welfare and chairman of the local draft board .addressed a meeting of the observers. The school was well fill- ed and great interest was evident. Speaking on \Propaganda Versus Facts.\ Mr. Otis by the aid of a map, drew the attention of his au- dience to the possibility of enemy raids even in this country and particularly in th e region known as the Champlain Valley. \Each time\ said Mr. Otis, \that this country has been invaded the invasion has been attempted in this section. Men may change but geographically there is no change. Our enemies in time past found this a natural doorway through which they hoped to enter, and that floorway still exists. Man have bridged time and space so that dis- tance and time mean little now. I With the advances made in avia- j tion, it is perfectly possible that the | enemy may attempt raids in this- section.\ \Just because yuu have not vet detected enemy |ilane.->\ Miid Mr Otis, \is no .snjn that you will not, or that the danger is not, present. Those who say it cannot happen over hero are only ei-hoin^ the cry ot those wlm .mid the same thing only a year or two ago, yet who now are subjus.. d and ruled by Hitler.\ Commending the gath- ering for their attendance to duty Mr. Otis said, \as long as there are people like you who e j not count their personal convenience of great- er value than devotion to country, democracy is .safe.\ Attending the meeting and speak- ing briefly was Rev. Father Mall- ette, Hale Wilson of Rouf-es Point, past county commander of the American Legion and present di- vision inspector of Observation Posts, as well as several members of the Interceptor Command at Albany. Chief Observer in the area cov- ered by this post is Dr. Walter E. Gilroy, to who=e great interest and organbin^ a^ilitv much of the pVOOllt ofTj.'J'-M ' ot 111- j.ii- . 1 iMW.

In his comment la r ,t night Mr. Otis said, \The example of those men and women, their faith and their sense of duty, is in- spiring and makes you really feel .-that with such people America cannot fail.\ ADAMS BLACKWOOD IS IN U.
