Troops For Invasion Is Military Secret

WASHINGTON, Dec. I —(AP) —'I‘lle iolnt Allied chiefs o! staff declared today that the proportion of American to British troops in the forthcoming invasion of north- western Eurwc is "a military sec- ret which the Germans would like to know. but will not learn from any“ official source in this coun-

v. Brltain. whose troops already outnumber the Americans in the Mediterranean. is “go to out in everything they have got" for other European operations, the ‘en-lent said. and "we are go- in everythinll we can

get there"

The statement, issued by the of- fice of war information. plainly was in reply to s. report by Senat- or Edwin Johnson (Dena-Colo) that the United States would pro- vice 73 per cent and Great isntain 27 per cent of the troops to be used in the Eurwean attack on Germ- anv. Senator Burton K. Wheeler (Dem.-Morlt.) declared the higil percentage of American troops in- ‘volvell WOTIIC be a “tremendous gullible" on the part of this coun- tr,v's military leaders.

Wheeler's implied was in turn answered by other senat- ors who agreed to comment that whatever the proportion. the de- cislon was one for xtzllltary lead- ers. Typical was the statement of Senator Warren Austin (Rep.- Vt.) that “it. is up to the men who will guide tho invasion to decide what woops an: needed. where and in what quantities.”

The statement from the joint chiefs of‘ staff declared there was no disagreement between the American and British command on the make-up of the invasion force "for the reason that bo countries are going to hit the com- mén enenw with everything gynl]. a e."

Lobster fishing - by far our "WM llllll-lrtarlt fishing industry- wae pursued zealously by 1mm. men in the early and late fishing season areas, and while landings declined slightly over those of 1942 the financial returns to the in- dividual fishermen were much in excess of last year. Many young fishermen were called t4;

ributed the slight falling off in lobster landings, but cu the whole the season was u highly profitable one to fishermen, packers and dealers as prices for the market and canned product reached the highest peak over a. period of years.

Landed Values Doubled

The cod, hnko and herring fish- eries were successfully carried‘ on during the year with landed values 97599195118’ doubling those 0f I942. Substantially increased landings

are recorded for the cod and herring fisheries, hake landings flailing off somewhat, however,

during the year. A large portion of the cod and hake catch was canned and sold as "Chicken Had- dlos" at hlglh-ly nmunormtivo

m prices. , The mackerel fishery shows e

large lncaesse in the quantity tak- en and value to the fishermen at the point of landing, the high prices offered encouraglns the fishermen w nmlrlmum activity in tbs pursuit of this industry.

The oyster industry continues to be an important and highly re- munorative one to the Province of Prince Edward Island. The great- er portion of the oysters shipped from this Province arc taken from leased areas and the scientific methods of oyster farming played by lessees am continuing to show very gratifylrg and re- muneratlve results in the much improved quality of the oysters

shipped. Smelt Bill-net and - net.
