(IB The vast land area of Canada, the world's sec ond largest country, may one day become a network of air raid alarm and radar warning sta tions. Such a possibility is seen by Defense minister Brooke Claxton. Worried by the increasing dan gers from air assault, Claxton has proposed a raid warning sys tem to cover all vital air ap proaches and important areas, with possible nerve centers at Vancouver, Winnipeg and Mon treal. First step in the defence minis ter's plan to provide an adequate j air warning system was the de cision to produce new high-powered radar equipment . here In Canada, Claxton beiieves this move will give the nation's electronic manu facturers experience and capacity "invaluable in the event of a na. tional emergency." - Cost $3,000,000, Cost of construction of an early radar warning -station would be about $3,000,000, Claxton esti mated. . Under, the proposed scheme, transmission stations would be built at Dawson City, Mayo, Cam bridge bay, Baker lake, Sawmill bay, Yeliowknife, and Ennadai lake, all in Canada's great Yukon and northwest territories. ; Obviously, these stations would be located to warn against pos sible air attacks from the soviet union. . Soviet-based long-range bomb ers from the Kuriles and Vladi vostock on Russia's Pacific sea board are within relatively easy striking distance of Vancouver and Prince Ruppert in British Columbia. '. ' Claxton said the proposed sys tem would link, up with cross Canada teletype communications. Speed Essential -. : ; . "Radar screens and other sources of intelligence are of lit tle use unless the information ob tained is communicated promptly to an operational unit which can take effective action," Cax ton said. .... ... . Canada's defense minister fore saw widespread diversionary air raids, designed to panic North America into diverting a dispro portionate amount of effort Into passive, -loeai defense.! .. Such aerial attacks must be met by jet interceptor fighters and strong anti-aircraft batteries, backed by a radar warning de fense in depth; he said. ' But Ottawa observers agreed such a system would In no way approach the defense in depth required to protect thickly-populated countries, as used by Eng land and Germany, during the last war. .

Land Ownership Concentrating In Big Operators Washington, Jan. 16 rtP Forty- one per cent of the nation's pri vately-owned farm land is new by only three per cent of all farm owners, - the agriculture depart ment reported today, . ' It said the trend has been to wards more owner-operated, fam ily farmsr but that ' national . ob jective "has been -only partially reached." , : . :, - j . The department said a new sur vey showed that the three- per cent are- those who have hold ings ag. large as 1,000 acres of more, i tie otner ( per cent : who hold 59 per cent pf the land have holdings of. 999 acres or less. . These calculations were based on the 975,000,000 acres held by, mmviauats, acout s per cent oi ail farmland. Corporations own six per cent, federal, state and local government six per cent and three per cent is in Indian lands. . , . .The survey also showed: ; Larger In South 1. Farmland holdings tend to run larger to the south where 46 per cent of the land Was in hold ings of 1,000 acres and up and one-third was in holdings of 2,500 acres - and up. .That compares with 41 arid 28 per cent for the nation as a whole. Including the west where cattle ranges com monly run more than 1,000 acres to provide a living for a farm family. , 2. Relatively few persons ac quire farms while they are young and only one out of four farm owners is under 45. There is a tendency in most regions "for the size of the holdings to increase with advancing age." 3. Most farmers do not become owners by climbing the "agricul tural ladder." Less than one third of all owners gained experi ence both as farm worker and tenant, . , . 4. Only 80 per cent of all pri-vatefy-owneel lands is held by farmers and retired farmers. Fourteen per cent is owned by businessprofessional people (av erage farm value $14,857. two per cent by housewives (average value $9,568) and three per cent by clerical and laboring people (average value $6,000). The value o the farmland own ed by active farmers averaged $11,308, or less than that held by business and professional people. On the other hand, the average value of retired farmers' hold ings was $15,142, topping all groups.
