With 600 cases of eggs,-- 18,000 dozen or 21,600,000 eggs in a carlot, that's a lot of egg powder. In 1913, according to a recent egg and poultry marketing report issued by the Dominion Department of Agriculture, the Special Products Board, which buys for Britain, purchased 1,869 cars with the following apportionment by pro-Cars British Columbia .............. 5 Alberta ..................... 330 Saskatchewan................ 453 Manitoba .................... 244 Ontario ...................... 768 Quebec ..................... 55 Maritime Provinces .....,____ 14 Surplus egg producing provinces last year were: Alberta ..................... 478 Saskatchewan ................O00 Manitoba ................... 345 Ontario .... y..............1,200 British Columbia brought in 80 cars in 1943 largely required for Northern projects.

THE WAR • WEEK -- Commentary on Current Events Naval Action Against Japan To Be Supported By Land and Air Drive The war in China may. be expected soon to come into greater prominence in co-relation with the American Navy's intended push across the Pacific toward China's coasts, writes Guenther Stein in The Christian Science Monitor. Far-reaching perparations are under way for support of naval action by aggressive land and air operations against Japan from the This is clearly the meaning of the statement which Lieut. Gen. Joseph Stilwell has just issued in Chungking. "Admiral Nimitz has stated that the Navy intends driving across the Pacific, breaking the Japanese blockade, landing ground and air forces on the Chinese mainland," General Stilwell declared. "To accomplish such mission naval action must be supported by aggressive land and air offensive projected from the interior. "This we intend to do in spite of the existing blockade. "Chinese and American forces fighting through Burma have already begun their first assault on the Japanese cordon. "The Ledo Road is progressing satisfactorily in spite of extremely unfavorable weather conditions. "At present, however, China is totally dependent on air transport and needs an immediate and con- lontiiy -HiM'Hc ilipplic China-based operations cannot wait for penetration of the blockade by land or sea. "Air transport in this theater has set historic records, but far greater tonnage must be achieved than our present operations permit. To accomplish this end we will have the largest and newest cargo carriers available and in anticipation of such aircraft every facility and accommodaton is be-nig prepared." An Outstanding Record The American Army command' in China has already achieved outstanding successes. 1. It has brought in by air which is several times bigger than the tonnage that came in by land • over the Burma Road in average months from the opening of the road when the total was 250 tons monthly, to the last months before the loss of Burma when the total exceeded 10,000 tons monthly. 2. With the full co-operation of the Chinese Army and authorities it has constructed a great number of airfields in rear and forward areas practically all over Free China to keep well ahead of air transport and operational ac- 3. The entirely air-supplied American Air Force in China of moderate dimensions has achieved outstanding successes: Helped Chinese armies in warding off several Japanese land offe.isivcs, supported at least one Chinese counterattack in North Hunnan this winter, bombed Japanese installations over the tremendous arc from Central China via the China coast Hong Kong to French Indo-Chifla and Burma, destroyed large and steadily, increasing numbers of Japanese shipping on China's rivers and far out into all parts of the China Sea, inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese Air Force vastly greater than its own losses. >n proportions never before seen n China.
