Forestry Commission Now Using FM Radio The South Carolina State For estry commission has installed a number of two-way FM (fre quency modulation) radio units in lookout towers in the lower part of the state and is proceed ing with plans to make this type of communication available in the future in every county, to facilitate the dispatching of fire fighting personnel and equip ment to forest fires. This an nouncement was made by Ray mond M. Littlejohn, Radio Engi neer for the Forestry commis sion. The equipment is of the fre quency modulation type and is operating in the lower portion of the 30-40 megacycle band. Each county ranger will have a two- way 30-watt mobile unit on his truck and will be able to radio the dispatching tower from any part of his county. Richland and Lexington counties have been using radio since July 1946, and it has proven very effective in forest fire control. Radio, when used in conjunc tion with the present telephone facilities, will bring about a more efficient fire fighting or ganization and thus greatly re duce the annual forest fire loss in South Carolina.

Gen. Oscar W. Griswold, commanding general of the Third Army an nounced today. In no case, Gen. Griswold em phasized, will Army Day or Army Week be “celebrated”. The purpose of the observance, he states, is to “honor American soldiers living and dead, who did so much to make peace pos sible; to inform the public of the new peacetime pattern of nation al security which is being devel oped and of Army assignments at home and abroad.” In all activities in the Third Army Area—Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Caro lina, South Carolina and Tennes see—it is planned to acquaint the citizens with relationship be tween an adequate Army and national security and the role of the entire \rmy, which includes the National Guard, Organized Reserve Corps and the Officer’s Training corps. These form the national security establishment for the maintenance of peace which has been won at so great a price, the general said. April 6, traditionally observed as Army Day, is Easter Sunday. Therefore, Monday, April 7 has been designated as Army Day. Churches throughout the seven southeastern states have been invited to include prayers for the Army in the services on Ap ril sixth. Many Army posts and installa tions will hold “open house” at some time during the week and in numerous cases Army troops will join veterans’ organizations, patriotic societies and youth units in colorful parades.
