City
Council
and
Hospital
Board
in
Joint
Session
Last
Evening
After
Ironing
out
some
difference
of
opinion
which
occasioned
considerable
dlscussUm,
the
city
council
and
hospital
board,
at
a
special
joint
session
last
night,
settled
upon
a
temporary
50-SO
financial
arrange
ment
for
the
operation
of
the
new
cltv
ambulance.
Mayor
H.
M.
Daggett
presided
over
the
meeting
and
there
was
an
al
most
full
attendance
of
both
bodies.
The
two
principal
points
of
difference
were
in
regard
to
whether
the
hospital
should
contribute
on
a
basis
equal
to
i
the
city
to
the
payment
of
the
j
$200
monthly
salary
of
the
am-
bulance
operator
who
also
actsj
as
supervisor
of
the
public
rest-rpom
and
whether
the
ambulance
call
fee
should
be
$5
or
less.
The
final
decision
was
that
the
hospital
board
should
pay
50-50
with
the
council
on
the
basis
of
the
$200
salary-The
$5
fee
was
adopted.
Decision
on
both
points
was
by
divided
vote.
The
terms
of
the
agreement
are:
The
ambulance
shalj
be
operated
by
a
committee
consisted
of
two
appointees
each
of
the
council
and
hospital
board
who
shall
select
a
chairman.

(CP)
Prime
Minister
Chur-chill'has
confirmed
the
German
report
that
the
Nazis
are
using
V-2
against
England.
The
British
leader
told
the
House
of
Commons
this
morning
that
the
Germans
are
using
new
long
range
rocket
bombs
but
he
emphasized
that
little
damage
has
been
done
so
far.
Mr.
Churchill
told
the
house
that
one
of
the
firing
sites
of
this
new
terror
weapon
has
beeil
overrun
on
Walcheren
Island
by
the
Canadian
First
Army.
The
Prime
Minister
explained
that
the
new
bombs
carry
the
same
amount
of
explosive
as
the
flying
bombs
of
last
summer.
But
V-2
flics
through
the
stratosphere)
at
a,
height
of
60
or
70
miles
above
the
earth
and
the
speed
attained
by
the
new
weanon
outstrios
sound.
For
that
reason,
he
said,
there
is
no
way
to
give
reliable
or
sufficient
public
warning.
Mr.
Churchill
added
that,
although
the
Oermans
have
been
employing
V-2
for
several
weeks
now,
the
government
has
censored
all
mention
of
the
mlssle
In
order
to
avoid
giving
Information
to
the
enemy.
The
new
missiles
have
fallen
at
widely
scattered
points
and
cannot
te
aimed
at
exact
targets
They
land
at
such
great
speed
that
their
damaging
effect
Is
not
as
great
as
buzz
bombs.
Each
missile
carries
about
one
ton
of
explosive.
j
Mr.
Churchill
termed
-highly
j
colored"
accounts
of
the
V-2
j
"flying
telegraph
pole''
bombard-
j
ment
broadcast
by
the,
Germans
during
the
past
two
days..
He
said
they;
indicated
the
Germans
were
in
desperate
need
to
give
the
home
front
encouragement.
"We
cannot
be
certain
that
the
enemy
will
not
be
able
to
increase
the
range
of
the
rockets,"
he
said.
"There
Is,
however,
no
need
to
exaggerate
the
danger."
