British Firm Develops
A New Type Of
“Reverse Radar”
LONDON, —A new type of
“reverse radar" which allows the
skipper of a ship or plane fo
see himself as other skippers see
him has been developed by a
British firm.
The manufacturers of the Decca
True Motion Radam said their in
strument made the reading of
radar pictures simpler.
In conventional radar the
transmitting ship is represented
at the center of the screen. In
the new system the transmitting
ship is shown moving across its
own screen at the correct speed
and bearing with other vessels
moving at their true course and
speed and stationary objects,
such as buoys and light ships,
clearly shown to be stationary.
The manufacturers said the de
vice seeks to reduce the human
error in using radar and elim
inate the need for course plot
ting.

Starvation Belt Reported
In The Canadian Arctic
CHURCHILL, Man., UPI — An
Eskimo starvation belt is threat
ening to grow in the Arctic be
tween the Mackenzie river and
Hudson Bay because of declining
caribou population an official
says.
The caribou herds, wandering
through the rocky, barren tundra
of the north, have been cut by
more than 40 per cent in the last
two years because of disease,
slaughter by Indians and Eskimos
and wolves.
The result is a heavy migration
by the northern natives to coastal
regions where food is more plen
tiful and fishing a possibility.
Bill Kerr, northern affairs of
ficer here, said Eskimos living
along the Hudson Bay and Baf
finland coasts have not been af
fected by the starvation threat.
But conditions in the interior are
reaching serious proportions.
Wolves have taken a big toll
of caribou. A poison bait scheme,
with strychnine - loaded meat
hung on wooden poles, killed
about 200 of the scavengers this
summer. A few foxes, too small
to reach the meat, died from eat
ing dead wolves.

53 Persons Killed
In Morocco Riots
Over French Action
RABAT. Morocco, Ufi—At least
53 persons, mostly Europeans, to
day were reported killed in Mor
occo in rioting touched off by
France's seizure of five top Al
gerian rebels.
French and Moroccan armed
patrols uncovered more and more
burned and mutilated bodies in
the city of Meknes, where angry
Arab nationalists struck Tuesday.
Moroccan troops and French
Legionaires mounted guard in the
European section of Meknes while
the search went on in the native
quarters for more bodies.
In addition to yesterday’s riot
ing in the town, French sources
said 38 farms, mostly European,
in the surrounding countryside
were wholly or partly burned by
rampaging Moroccans.
The actual cause of the rioting
in Meknes appeared to be the ac
cidental shot fired by a Moroccan
trooper who wounded himself.
The shot enraged demonstrators
and the bloodshed was on
French police reportedly threat
ened to stop working for the Mor
occan government after four of
their men were found slain.
Eight bodies of Europeans were
found this morning nead the Por
tuguese bridge on the main road
to Rabat, 100 miles east of Mek
nes. Meknes is a city of 150,000
inhabitants, more than 20,000 of
them Europeans.
Rioting ended yesterday and
authorities spent the night look
ing for bodies.
In Tunis, Morocco’s Sultan Mo
hammed V glumly ordered a
plane home. He and Tunisian
leaders broke off talks which had
been interrupted when France
seized the Algerian rebels.
The Sultan had come to Tunisia
to confer on a purported plan to
bring peace to Algeria and weld
it into a new union of North
Africa.
