It's the war. Government authorities, working out an ARP organization in pre- paration for invasion weather, which comes at the end of the monsoons in October, have made the bold decision to restrain them. Instead of being allowed to meander at will, the sacred ani- mals have been ordered hobbled within five minutes of a raid warning. In the event they are made dangerous by wounds, they will be destroyed. These orders are particularly vital in Assam province, on the northwest frontier, since the sa- cred red cattle there outnumber inhabitants and could create a ieritical situation by a stampede. | Calcutta officials have marked |out especially dangerous areas in | which the sacred cows are for- | bidden to wander. This still hasn't solved the problem of how to prevent people from falling over “the beasts in a blackout. One daring individual has sug- gested that the beasts either be painted with a luminous paint, or provided with tail lights. i A 5 ,fl.
