OTTAWA REPORTS That Current Increased Egg Production Is Largely Due To Better Feeding Methods And Earlier Hatching Canada's phenomenal winter egg production has resulted in deliveries of 405 carlots in January alone to the Special Products Board as against 201 cars in the same period last year, an increase of 101%, in addition to voluminous home con- sumption. \Vith G00 cases of eggs, - 15,000 dozen or 21,000,000 eggs in a carlot, that's a lot of egg powder, * * y In 1943, according to a recent egg and poultry marketing report issued by the Dominion Depart- ment of Agriculture, the Special Products Board, which buys ,for Britain, purchased 1,509 tares with the following 'apportionment by pro- vinces: - Cars British Columbia 5 Alberta. 330 Saskatchewwan .'...,.,........ 433 Manitoba 7.41.

While Moderate weather is con- sidered. the main reason for the current high production, earlier hatching and better feeding methods have been primary considerations.

THE WAR , WEA -- Commentary on Current a vents Naval Action Against Japan To Be Supported.. By Land and Air Drive The war itt Celina may be ex- pected .soon to come into greater prominence in co -relation with the American Navy's intended push ae'ross 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 Chinese interior, This is clearly the 'leaning of the statement which Lieut. Gen, Joseph Stilwell has just issued in Chungking. "Admiral Nintitz 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 accomplishsuch missien naval action roust 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 trough 13urnia have al- ready 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- tinuous increase in supplies. Vital China -based operations cannot wait for penetration of the block- ade by land or sea. "Air transport in this theater has set historic records, but far greater tonnage must be achieved than our present operations per- mit, To accomplish this end we will have the largest and newest cargo carriers available and in anticipation of such aircraft every facility and accornmodaton is be - nig prepared." An Outstanding Record The Americas; Army command in China has already achieved out- standing successes. 1. It has brought in by air i a : inopthy tonnage of supplies 'which is several tunes bigger than the tonnage that carte in by`:;land over the Burma Road in average months front the opening of the road when the total was 250 tdils. monthly, to the last months be- fore the loss of Burma when the total exceeded 10,000 tons monthly, 2, With the full co-operation of the Chinese Arniy and author- ities it has constructed a great ntunber, of airfields in rear and forward areas practically all over Free China to keep well ahead of air transport and operational ac- tivities, 3. ' The entirely air -supplied American Air Force in China of moderate dimensions has achieved outstanding successes: Helped Chi- nese armies in warding off several Ja..anese land offensives, sup- ported at least one Chinese coun- `terattack in North Hunnan this winter, bombed Japanese installa- tions over the tremendous arc from Central China via the China coast Hong Kong to French Indo- China 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.
