porters.

It asked for more immigrants to fill ranks of trawler crews in Nova Scotia, elimination of fed- eral restrictions on imports of fishing vessels. ,assurances that fish streams will not he wrecked by power dams. more federal aid in fish research and ways of stab- llizing the vital United States mar- ket for Canadian fish products.

In a brief to the Gordon eco- nomic commission. the Fisheries Council of Canada predicted that the industry's heavy dependence on foreign markets will decline as the Canadian population increases but that about one-half of Canada's catch will still have to be exported in 25 years time.

Fish is still big business in Can- ada. The industry employs about 92,000 workers, lands about 2,000.- 000,000 pounds of fish a year and sells the catch for about 3200.000.- 000. About two-thirds are exported with about 890,000,000 worth going to the US.

Resuming .let Fighter Supply Train To Europe

By ARCH MacKENZIE Canadian Press Staff Writer ST. HUBERT. Que. (CP)-The

KCAF is resuming traffic on the jet fighter supply train to Europe.

No. 1 Overseas Ferry Unit is scheduled to begin another ship- ping season about Feb. 15. supply- ing the latest Canadian-built Sabre lots to the four-wing lst Air Di- vision in Germany and France.

Before 1956 ferrying ends next November, the small outfit should be working towards its 700th de- livery since Operation Random be- gan. The 500-plane mark was passed last year.

No. 1 OFU was set up in Oc- tober. 1958 to keep modern F-86 Sabres rolling from the factory to Canadian pilots overseas. T33 trainers. older Salxes for NATO allies and three CF-100 all-weather Interceptors have also been trans- ported via the stepping stones of Labrador, Greenland. Iceland and

Scotland. SAFETY RECORD

So far. the weather-ridden, sub- Arctic supply line hasn't claimed a Canadian life. Canadians, who share it with United States pilots claim the speed record of 45 hours from this base outside Montreal to No. 4 wing at Baden-Soellingen in Germany's Black forest.

Three aircraft have been lost in s unique ground acldent. A Scot- tish seagull burst open a cockpit canopy on another craft.

OFU flying personnel of about 32 young pilots, veterans of Sabre operations in Europe.ride their cramped cockpits across and start back a day later in the utilitarian comfort of a workhorse transport with bucket seats.

They have been catching up on leave. signals and other technical developments and survival train- lng since weather ended the sea- son last November. Weather calls the shot along the desolate north- ern stretches, plagued by capri- cious sub-Arctic cloud. fog, wind, rain or snow.

CONSTANT HAZARD

A trip may take three days-or three weeks.

"We might make two hops in I day-say from here to Goose Bay. Labrador. and on to Bluie West One, Greenland," explained Sqdn. Ldr. Bob Mlddlemlss of Montreal, the commanding officer.

"Or we could sit around for days.

I find Keflavik, Iceland. the worst part because in five minutes Hue skies there can change to no skies at al "

Mlddlemlss. 36, urganlzed OFU and has commanded it since. He wears a DFC for two Second World War tours in Spitfires.

Operating procedure is standard.

Direct-line communications be tween bases give the weather pic- ture. Ground crews precede each fighter flight by transport plane.

Trainer craft start first and fin- ish last. There is no night flying unless it can't he helped. Lengthy briefings on weather. approaches and emergency routine precede each hop.

EMPTY STRETCH

There isn't much a pilot over Davis straits could do if he lost power, except hope to stay alive as long as possible after ditching. Getting lost is the other hazard.

The unit should finish transxer of Mark VI Sabres this year. It fer- ricd across about 150 last year. These, thanks to larger wingtanks, provide a wider fuel safety margin.

Pilots completing the longest leg -from Keflavik to Kinioss. Scot- land, now can expect to have about 1.500 pounds of fuel left. The full fuel load is 5,600 pounds.

The Sabres have been rolling in. factory-fresh in their broi:n-blue- grey camouflage, for final testing.

Canada first used the fighter supply trail in 1952-53 to equip the air division when it was estab- lished. The RAF took across some 400 Canadian-built Sabres in 1953. losing two pilots in Scotland. The Americans have lost some men.

TANGLED WITH SEAGULL

Flt. Lt. Bob liallowell of Guelph. 0nt., who now has left the unit. was the pilot who tangled with the Scottish seagull as he was pre paring to land. The gull spread itself around his cockpit. but he got down safely just the same.

Three Sabres burned after one Jumped its chocks when being started. and ploughed into the others.

The unit draws its pilots from across the country.

Mr. Kent. on a visit to Wales last summer. was shocked to hear I tour guide say the graves at Bodelwyddan contained the bodies 0i M Canadian soldiers sentenced in death after rioting in a'mili- my camp near the hamlet.

The church's verger told him no records existed to confirm the sulde s story but Mr. Kent wanted runcrete proof to put an end to it for once and for all.

After more correspondence. the defence department assured him It would investigate. The results of the investigation were forwarded to the vicar of Bodelwyddnn and confirmed that the old legend had no foundation in fact.

It seems the rumor started this way:

A staging camp was established near Bodelwyddan for soldiers awaiting return to Canada after the 1918 armistice. In March. 1919. a melee developed among men restless from repeated sailing de- lays. In the melee three soldlrs were killed and two died later of injuries.

Courts-martial were held and some detcntions ordered.

While 83 Canadians taccordlnl to Ottawa records) were buried in the churchyard. including four riot victims, the mpjoriiy were victims of influenza and pneumonia.

By ALAN DONNELLY c Canadian Press Satff Writer OTTAWA (CF)-Not so many years ago Prairie wheat growers b could expect to lose an average of 50,000,000 bushels I year to the a depredations of a pest called the

wheat stem sawfly. ,

Another scourge, the wireworm. used to decimat the entire crop Y of many a farmer. The pale west- ern cutworin. a third killer. in- 0 fested from 300,000 to 400,000 acres at its peak.

Recent years. however, have seen a minor revolution accom- plished by two groups of scientists. entomologlsts who have armed farmers with new insecticides and farming methods, and cereal ex- perts who have developed new wheat strains better able to with- stand insect ravages. W

BATTLE NOT OVER

Snwflies, wireworms. cutworms and other insect threats to the West's grain wealth still are far from being whipped. But the agri- culture departmentls experts say the teeth of many insect pests have been pulled or blunted.

In 1945, after 11 years' research. farmers got the' first seeds of a new type of wheat named Rescue, whose solid stem could stand up to sawfly larvae. Now Rescue plantings are second in acreage among all types of spring wheat and the main sawfly losses occur only where it isn't used. Chinook. licensed in 1952, is the latest saw-

fly-resistant, drought - resistant spring wheat developed by federal agriculturists.

In 1951. a new chemical treat- ment for seeds, gamma BHC (benzine hexachloride). went into at widespread use. It can kill three- fifths of the wireworms in a field. Dr. A. P. Arnason, a federal en- to tomologlst, said in a recent inter- view that it is credited with crop savings in 1953 estimated at be- tween S4.000,000 and 36,500,000 in Saskatchewan and 35,000,000 in Al- berta. Gamma B is expensive, but savings are worth three times the cost. W Dr. Arnason said the wireworm now is the West's most serious pest, chiefly because of its leis- urely life cycle. The worms stay in the ground four or five years before transfonning into beetles- one has been known to live to the ripe old age of 15 years.

WINS GOLD MEDAL H. L. Seamans. now head of field crop entomology here. formerly di- I rected research against the pale western cutworm at the Letlihridge Alta.. federal laboratory. He de- vised a control which won him the valued gold medal of the Profes- sional lnstltute of Public Service of Canada. The control hinges on an annual survey by which-a year in ad- vance-areas of heavy outbreaks can be predicted. Threatened farm- ers are advised to stop cultivation of summerfuiiuw fields. The result: The ground crusts over and cut- worms. iiatching from eggs laid on the surface. can't get under- ground to survive to next year. Some 1,500 of the worlds leading insect experts from more than 60 countries will meet in Montreal
