the Japanese aircraft carrier
Junyo, presented on behalf of
Fleet Adm. Chester W. Nimitz.
The 44-pound brass ship's bell

Small Boy Writes
Santa For "Free"
Jacksonville, Fla., (U.R)
The influence of the army was
evidenced here when a mite of
a boy wrote a letter to Santa
Claus, care of radio station
WJHP.
He sent it with the correct
address and a large "free" where
the stamp should have been
placed.
"If my brother can send let
ters to his girl free from Europe.
I don't see why I can't mail one
to Santa Claus at the North Pole
free," he reasoned. "Santa" paid
the postage due.

COASTAL TUNA
FISHING UP TO
PRE-WAR SPEED
San Diego, Cal. (U.R) War
was so peaceful for the tuna.
For four years he enjoyed un
bothered rest, disturbed only
by the distant thunder of guns
and the occasional death, rattle
ot a sinking ship.
Now, peace has returned and
the war against the tune is on
again in full blast.
In San Diego, where 65 per
cent of the nation's tuna catch
is packed, it's swinging into
full-fledged blitzkrieg.
With $35,000,000 worth of
business and employment for
between 4,000 and 6,000 work'
ers Involved, the San Diego
canneries and tuna fleets are
hot on the trail of an annual
catch exceeding 125,000,000
pounds of fish and 1,000,000
pounds of lobster.
Small fortunes are pouring
into cans and catching boats as
local canneries become increas
ingly confident of the future of
the industry.
New Ships Off Ways
New tuna boats are sliding
down Pacific Coast ways and
being outfitted with Diesel en
gines and refrigerating systems
in a small-scale version of
America's wartime shipbuilding
program.
The new ships will join a
fleet of 50 150-footers already
experienced in the chase, plus
about 40 "war veterans" wear

war zones for four years and are
now being returned to thoir

Fathometers and other long-

Boat Coiti $450,000
With a capacity of 500 tuns,
the big new all-steel Suii Dial
is typical of latest designs in
tuna boats.
Costing $450,000 to build, the
Sun Dial is 131 feet long, can
carry the biggest tuna load in
the fleet's history. It sailed from
Tacoma, Wash., to San Diego
recently, bucking coastal storms
all the way.
Two new firms are planning
canneries in San Diego, cost
ing around $2,000,000, while
the five existing facilities are
planning expansion.
And the tuna captains who
own their boats and pay for
them with what they catch and
sell to the canneries are talk
ing about radar and use of air
planes as spotters to increase
the catch.
The war Is beginning for the
tuna.
