Weather Delays Smell Fishing

Poor fishing weather during t.he past five days has completely cur- tailed the catching of smelts. it was learned yesterday from Mr. J.J. i.arabee, Director of Fisheries for the Province. 1

The mild weather has provided no ice fer the fishermen to work on and those that are caught in boats can not be taken to a freezing plant due to the bad roads. he explained.

Fishermen nevertheless have had is good season in securing the 511. very fish. Previously published fig- tires to the end of November show- ed a large increase over those caught in 1940 with the price being higher.

At the beginning of the season the price was as high as 22 cents a pound to the fisherman for gill net smelts. Bag net smells, the type usually caught at this time of year, are bringing the fisherman between five and six cents a pound.

Gill net smells include only those around seven inches in length while bag net smells may be any size.

Although price drops have been recorded in other fishing areas dur- ing the past few days, there have been no recent price changes here due to the fact that no fish have been caught.

VETERAN MAIL CARRIER - A correspondent writes: "The 34- year mail driving record establish- ed by Alban Gaudet of Miscouche is good but does not come up to the record of Nelson Williams of East Wiitshire. Nelson has been taking H. M. mails for 36 years over a. 20-mile route that feeds 72 boxes. This route begins at the Post Ollfice at North River, car- rlcs along the York Point Road to the Ferry Road. swinging around to ihe'post-office at.

At East Wilt- shirc, Williams turns left on the Kingston highway and travels as far as the home of James Jewell. During all these years Williams has used a horse."

Airfield Wrecked

Seoul's airport. Kimpo. ll miles to the northwest, was evacuated without a shot 'about the same time. Huge Quantities of fuel were put to the torch as the last plane took off .,

Seoul's port of lnchon, 32 miles west. was abandoned in the dark of Thursday night and early Pri- day under cover of U. S. naval gunfire. .

Most of the troops evacuated from lnchcn were army and navy port personnel who had been man- ning ilhe harbor installations since U. S. marines landed Sept. 15. '

The last 10,000 Korean civilians trying to escape the mass of Chinese troops were taken off the beach Thursday night. The last Allied military units were soheduled to leave early Friday.

AP uurespondent Tom Stone reported from Inohon that as the last troops and refugees went aboard ship, demolition charges blew docks and marshaliing yards high intothe air.r

Bed troops driving west toward fndhon from Seoul were ,heid at boy by 'guns of the cruiser Rochester and other warships can- manded by Rear-Admiral L. A. Thackrey.

Tlrawrey said the evacuation op- eration went off "smootiriy"and ef- ficiently." '

Gunfire of 'I'hackrey's warship could easily reach along the In- chon-Seoul road as far inland as Yongdungpo. industrial suburb five miles southwest of Seoul.

Many of the ships in Inchon har- bor had been loaded for days wltb tanks and other war up ipment.

May Import Sire. I From Jersey island.

Prince Edward Island Jersey breeders, in search of the finest sire they can attain, may import one this year from Jersey Island in the English Channel the home of the Jersey breed. They also have several other purchasing prospects in view.

The cattle on Jersey Island are said to be of the highest quality. During the war the breeders were forced by the Germans to reduce their cattle population and as a

result they retained only their best. The local Jersey breeders have

been stressing the importance of the sire in the herd since the im- portation of the old Jestar bull some years ago. Last fall at the Roslyn Park sale in Ontario they bid more than 66.000 on Brampton B. Violet's Beacon but Edison Mutch. who was assigned to buy the animal refused to bid high as he did not like several of the young bull's offspring.

iaycees Plan For Regional Convention

Preparatory plans for the con- ducting of the Maritime Regional Convention of the Junior chamb- ers of Commerce, which will be held in Charlottetown on June 22- 33-24 this year, were discussed last night at the monthly meeting of the Charlottetown Jaycees in the Charlottetown.

Highlight of the meeting was an interesting and instructive talk on the operation of newspapers and radio news services by Mr. George

Praser. Public Relations Officer of

the Provincial Government and well known Canadian newspaper man.

Plans were also discussed for the holding of the president's dinner here in Charlottetown on Feb. 26. Special guest at the dinner will be Mr. Forbes A. Rankin, Winnipeg. National President of the Junior Chamber of commerce.

100 Delegates Expected

More than 100 delegates are ex- pected to attend the Maritime Regional convention here in June, it was revealed by Charlottetown Jack Mor- ris. The convention was held last year in Yarmouth.

Activities of the different Jaycce groups will be discussed and plans formulated for new projects. Act- ivities of the local group during the -past year included the holding of a safety week campaign, enter- tainment of tourists tied up at the Wood Islands Ferries during the railway strike last August and beautification schemes.

Mr. Fraser. in hia' remarks stressed the value of the news- paper and radio news in society. He outlined the meaning of news as related to the newspaper and

the ways in which newspaper men get the news. "News is generally obtained

from two sources. the public and the private clearing houses," he said. "The reporter is the most important man on the staff. and there are two types of reporters, the beat reporter who looks for the expected and the assignment reporter looking for the unex- pected." he stated.

"The press assoclation is ill? heartbeat of newspaper business."

he added. He cited the various press services in the Dominion including the Canadian Press.

British United Press, Reuters and International News Service.

He explained the operation of syndicates and morllues in the newspaper business. Included un- der syndicates were milny 001- unmists. cartoonists and advice to the love lorn writers. News- paper morgues. he pointed out contained accounts of the lives of prominent citizens.

The Junior Chamber will con-

tinue its policy of having two members attend the monthly meetings of the City Council. ii

was decided. Following each Jay- cee meeting in future .the mem- bers will divide into- public speaking and civic groups for H1- siruciions on these mailers.

New Red Attack

While United Nations, forces once more began fighting their way back along "heartbreak highway" south of Seoul, Red Chinese and North Korean forces launched a new attack in Central Korea east of Seoul.

An estimated four to seven Com- munist armies-180.ooo men-began a power-drive on Woniu, 55 miles east and slightly south of Seoul.

Gen. MacArthur's Tokyo war aummmry said these forces, origin- ally on the Korean east coast, were moving southwesterly and were pre aring for a concentrated strike at oniu, rail and highway centre.

Capture of Wcnju. the General said, would put the Reds in a pos- ition to continue their attempted envelopment of U. N. forces to the north and west and enable them to exploit the route to the south to- ward Pusan.

Waiierworlh C Conviction ls Sustained

The appeal of Wilfred Waiter- worth was dismissed yesterday by the court of Criminal Appeal and the conviction and sentence oftwo years in Dorchester penitentiary imposed by Chief Justice Thane A. Campbell. sitting with a jury, were sustained.

Watierworth had been found guilty of theft of a marine engine and quantity of rope by the Sup- reme Court sitting at Georgetown last July. I-le appealed on the grounds that there was not suf- ficient evidence before the Grand July to enable them to find a true bill. misdirection and non-direci- ion by the trial judge, that the conviction was unreasonable and unsupported by the evidence and thalfthei sentence was excessive.

The judgment of the appeal court was delivered by Mr. Justice G. J. Tweedy. T-he chief Justice and Mr. Justice M. R. Macauigan concurred. it was ruled that the evidence of the one witness before the Grand Jury could not be said to be inadequate to substantiate the Grand Jury's findings.

The trial judge's charge to the jury. considered in the light of the evidence and "general conduct of the case and the cirarael Add- ed at the reouest of defence coun- sci sufficiently covered the ground and. the Court ruled, no injustice was suffered by the accused.
