lobster fishing

Over 1.000 boats and 2.000 men he poised for the opening of the lobster fishing season this morning. out lust how many of them win gel. into action was problemstical last night. .

The season is open on the North glue from North Point to East point and from there along the east loci south shores as far as Victoria.

e season in the section from Victoria west to North Point does not start until August 10.

Who reason for some doubt as to the number of boats putting out lpls morning was warning signals io.s'-led for the North shore. and "unless an unexpected change of irinri came, the lobstermen were 'e,5,.'ocied to wait at least another day. If the weather is favorable, there is a strong possibility that lovers of the tasty crustaceans may "have a chance to get somh for sup- per tomorrow night.

No bait shortage is anticipated this year as the herring cstch has pccn more than ample to provide for all expected needs. The last niuilnbie records show that there tun-o approximately 1,252 boats and 2.313 men engaged in the industry. Those figures were for the whole Province and not just the area "well to fishing today. It was es- nmuicrl that ea h boat would put gill. 300 traps on the average.

So far there have been no reports in fishermen trying to jump the guy by doing some early season ponclllllg. Generally the danger of pglichlllg only arises in between the two seasons and later in the

li. mace-ausc the ice left the shores early this year. it is thought that .th.-re may be more inshore lobster .”5hmg than in past seasons. That ,,,..uui mean shorter distances for .th..- fishermen to go to visit their

....;..- and a possibility of landing drill-ill more rapidly if the catch is good.

,-xltlmugh no estimates of this 5.-.tr's catch can be made as yet. it is believed that a good season is in pi I.-pect.

Robert C. MacMiilan, D. B. C. and Bar,

Lieutenant Commander

R. C. N . one of the Province's oulstanding naval veterans of the last war, who is scheduled to leave here today for duty at H. M. C.' S. Stadacona. Halifax. He has

re-entered the service under the recently announced short term commissions.

A son of Mr. and Mrs. L. B. MacMiilan. Charlottetown, he made a splendid record for him-

self in the last war. Off duty while serving as a. lieutenant on I. minesweeper he suddenly had to assume command when a surprise raid by enemy planes in a Medit- erranean port killed all other of- ficers on his ship. Commander” Maclvlulan took over and Vote re- sponsibie for shooting down five enemy planes.

For that exploit he won the noveictl Distinguished service Cross. He afterwards commanded the iE'.squimalt.' Later in another engagement he again won it and subsequently received his award from the hands of Lieutenant Goy- rrnor J. A. Bernard in one of the first investiiures held in Govern- mt-nt House here.

He returned to Canada in l943 for a tour of this country and was widely interviewed at that time. He returned to active duty and re- mained until the end of the war.

Since then he has served locally with H. M. C. 8. Queen Charlotte on instructional duties and also as Naval Aide to Lieutenant Gover- nor Bernard.

Bodies Df Three Deer Complicate 0 Lost Doe jiory

The doe. presented to this Prov- ince by the Ontario Government last fail and reported to have been found dead with gunshot wounds. may still be alive according to the results of an investigation carried out recently.

The investigation resulted in the finding of the bodies of three fully matured deer along the shore line in Prince County. it was learned here officially last night.

A buck and a doe were found at Enmore, a. few miles west of sum- rnersidc on the South side of the Province. The other buck was found at cousin's Road near sea View on the North Shore.

The doe at Ernmore is the one reported to have been found v4iltlh e

gunshot wounds last week. three deer were closely examined and while the hide gave the ap- pearance of wounds there was ac- tualiy no trace of any injuries.

Meanwhile reports of,.seeing the Ontario doe alive have been cur- rent sgain. somewhere in the vic- inity of st. Peter's Island. There has been no word about the im- ported buck.

The dead deer are believed to have drifted to shore alonlr with seals and seal skins. It is thought that the deer got caught out on the ice. It was estimated that the animals were dead about two months.

They would weigh around 150 or 175 pounds on the hoof. it was stated. -There was no markings on them.

Members of the R. C. M. P. and officials of the Department of In- dustry and Natural Resources are endeavoriug to locate the where- abouts of the imported door. if they are still alive.

Automobile Dealers heel

The regular monthly meeting of the Prince Edward island Auto- mobile Dealers was held last night at the Charlottetown Hotel. The President. Col. J. D. Stewart. presided. if-'oIlowing dlscuuion of regular business. the dealers, representing all parts of the Province. were privileged to hear as guest speaker, Mr. Howard B. Moore. managing director Federation of Automobile Associations. Toronto. The theme of his address was "Let's Be" Optimistic". He cited the following reasons. "We live in Cahsd, we pay our way. we have no reason for pessimism."

Mr. Moore. who has travelled widely across Canada. has a uni- que know edge of the industry he rep nu. He suggested that this was iiho time for all Can- adians to think hard and to fol- low good leadership. He warned the dealers that this was s time for sober realism and to be pre- pared to perform the kind of work they have not been accus-

tomed to land its a result they would be in-nun -I on i-dimer

Enquiries from persons request- ing tourist literature from Prince Edward island during the month of April totalled 1,187 or almost twice as many as were received during the previous month. it was disclosed here yesterday by Mr. George V. Fraser, Director of the Provincial Government's Tourist and i..1ormstion Branch.

A breakdown of the figures show that 919 of the inquiries came from the United States. 30'! from Canadian points and 50 from oth- er parts of the world. in addition the Travel Bureau mail contain- ed on average of a dozen letters daily from school children ask- ing for literature.

Eighty of those who wrote from United States centres stated de- finiiteiy that they would be spend- ing their holiday on Prince Ed- ward Island this summer. Cana- 'd.ians who said they were defin- itely holidaying in the Province this coming summer totalled 82.

Travel Bureau advertising was commenled in United States and Canadian newspapers the first week in April this year in the hope of catching those who plan their holidays early. This is the practice followed in most other provinces. Resulis of this early advertising have shown up by an increased number of inquiries from the areas where the advertis- ing is placed. Most persons who have written for literature as a result of newspaper advertising have enclosed a clipping with their request.
