What to do with 1,800 Japan- ese fishermen whose vessels have ° been 'taken over by the Can- .adian, - naval * authorities and whose fishing licenses have been suspended - during the war mn the Pacific has presented: British Col-. umbia with-one of' the most dif- ficult problenis aristag from hos- tilities with Japan, : It seems unlikely that the Jap- anese will be permitted to operate their craft for the duration of war unless satisfactory guaran- tees can be made. £ It is fortunate, from the eco- nomic standpoint, that the main fishing seasons off the West Coast are over. British Colum- bia fishermen and canneries have handled a record pack of salmon and herring, a large part of which is being shipped to the United Kingdom, : This situation is beneficial from two standpoints. One_is that the salmon and herring, 'representing possibly $10,000,000 or more, have been successfully harvested and there is no danger of tho supply being interrupted by the dislocation "of the Japanese con- fuscation, The other dae che Japanese' fishermen have in most cases recejved' the money that comprises the 'bulk of their year's livelihood, so that their. enforced unemployment will not result im a breadline or relief problem, While representing the largest economic division among the . Japanese in' British Columbia, the » fishermen . numerically are only a small section of the 24,000 per- sons of Japanese racial origin within the boundaries of the Pro- vince. _ Japanese have penetrated almost every important occupa- tional group, To intern the entire Japanese population, as some well-inten- tioned spokesmen suggest, would - entail - tremendous - cost and a roundup of unprecedented propor- tons in this part of the world. It would be tantamount intern- ment of all the residents of New Westminster; for instance, one of the four largest cities of British Columbia. Obviously no such pro- fe ~=---+------gram-is-being seriously contem-- plated at this time. Canada's policy towards the * Japanese, in the long run, will probably be 'determined by - the Japanese themselves--their gen- - eral behavior and their co-op- eration with the authorities, Admiralty Lauds .

The engine room of a British warship is. as insulated as the yolk inside an egg. Airtight compartments shut it off from the rest of the ship to render it less vulnerable. 'Entrance is gained by way of manholes, And .it isn't easy-to get out in a hurry, - Men in the fire control can see something of the battle, Men in the gun turrets have the satisfac- tion of knowing that they are pouring shells into the .enemy., ~~ But men in the engine room, - _ down in the bowels of the sHip, shut off from the outside, can only guess at what Is happening: = To them the battle means only more toil and sweat; instant re- sponse to orders . that come to them by. telegraph from! the bridge..

SHOW 194 A preliminary estimate of pro- duction and value of the fruit crops in Ontario for 1941 just made available by the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture, discloses that apples again led in value of production, with $1,242,075.04. This was a decrease of $62,624.96 from the 1940 apple crop value, The quantity of apples produced last year was 614,871 compared with 783,000 bushels in 1940, Grapes were again in second place in dollar value with a pro- duction of 22,500 tons valued at $1,189,204.71. Although the ton- nage of grapes grown was less by 2,450 tons; there 'was an increase in income return to the grape, growers of $265,604.71, About 70 'per cent of the grape crop is purchased by the wineries and this increase. in commercial --return-was-largely due-to-the-in=-- crease of $10.00 per ton (from $40.00"to $50.00) in fhe price zai by the wineries to the grape - . growers, : The marketing of the grape crop is an outstanding instance of Vineyards Close Second To Apple FRUIT CROP VALUES 1 INCREASE Orchards In .Dollar Value . -gensible and profitable co-opera- tion between the grower and the processor. Each year there is es- tablished a fixed minimum price per ton on grapes which must be * paid by the Ontario Wineries to "the Grape Growers. This price is arrived at by mutual agreement between the Niagara Grape Grow- ers Association and the Niagara Peninsula Growers representing the Grape Growers, and the Wine Producers Association represent- ing Wineries. This price is ap- proved by the Board of Ontario. The Wineries, therefore, represent an assurance of profitable return to the Grow- ers. g ~ Peaches are again in third place with a crop value .of $1,162, 848.10. This is an increase over * the 1940 crop of $350,448.10. ~'The-quantity-of -peaches-produced- this year was 670,400 bushels, 'an increase of 75,400 bushels over 1940. .

E. Robinson, eminent Am. erlcan nutrition research authority in recent consultation with the Dominion Government's experts on the fats and olls situation said, "Fats are essential in the dlet, They supply more than twice the energy of other foods. They can help Canada win the war." According to Dr. Edna QGuost, convenor of the committee on pub- llc health for the National Coun- cil of Women, and Its represent. ative on the Canadian Council on Nutrition, "We must have animal fats in the diet. They are neces- sary for actual existence, An ade- quate diet is the key to Britain's socurity. With such facts before us wo should search our markets to sce that meat fats are always procurable, In the new blended shortening we find these very de- sirable essentials. Such develop- ments as fortification of flour and the production of this new type of shortening, using meat fats as well "as vegetable oils, deserve our study and serious consideration."

Holland's total fleet, when the country was overrun in 1940, am- ounted to 120 vesfels of various categories, from battle cruisers to mine-layers and patrol boats, Practically this entire force got away from the Nazis, but since then 14 ships have been sunk, As of last September, 89 Dutch naval units were operating in European waters, so that we are conservative in stating that more than 50 ships are now in The _ Netherlands East Indies service. And how are they doing? Well, the toll so far is half a dozen troopships laden with Japanese soldiers, a blow to enemy land strength, never mind the ships, which could equal. in ultimate strategical and tactical value as many battleships. : These are the sons of the men who chased the French and the Syaniards out of this very Pa- cific; the sons, too, ¢f the men who tailed up the Thames and burned the British fleet right un- der the nose of all London, -- Chicago Sun, Indian Fighters Outwit Japanese The British Broadcasting Cor- poration told of messages from Singapore, praising the "'maghni- ficent work" of Indian troops from the North Malayan: front, One story received, typical of many, told of how three Indian - soldiers. led a Japanese column into a disastrous trap. When the three Indians were captured by the Japanese, an in- terpreter told them they would. be well rewarded if they would lead the troops to the rear of a certain British position, - "The Indians pretended to agree," the broadcast said, "and were marched in front of a Jap-. anese column with tommy guns pressed into their backs." "But instead of leading the en- emy behind the British lines, the Indians dauntlessly led them straight into the line of British cross fire, "Flinging themseles to the ground as the British troops op- ened fire, they miraculously es- caped being killed." The Japanese were either wiped out or fled in disorder. The In- dians then identified themselves and rejoined their unit.
