Dr. Jones spent several days at the United States Fishery Laboratory here, observing the research methods employed in the study of the habits of the American shad. The scientist is in this country under a Leader Grant, for a tour of study in the United visit is in the interest of stimulating the exchange of scientific thinking among nations, and he is observing, primarily, both fresh and salt water fisheries research employed in this country tive scientistrat Covepresenta: India. He is senior research officer of the Central Inland Fisheries Research Station, located at Barrachpore, India. This station is engaged in research on the Indian shad and other problems in estuarine ecology.

India consumes well over onebillion-pounds of fish, both fresh and salt water varieties, yearly, or 3.6 pounds per person. This despite fact that approximately one third of the fih, either population because abstains from eating of religious beliefs, or customs and tradition. The two.1 most common fresh water varieties of food fish, according to Dr. Jones, are the carp and catfish. Both are similar to our own, and both exist under practically the same conditions.

The carp affords 35 per cent of India's fresh water supply, while the catfish accounts for 32 per cent. Her catfish, like our own, will thrive almost any place there is water, muddy or otherwise. He multiplies rapidly, and with little attention, produces an important food source for Indian farmers and townsfolk. Dr. Jones stated that his country is much farther advanced in the production of food fish the United States.

He explained this in part stating that in America, we have our private fish ponds chiefly for the sport fishing they afford. Only the very wealthy go in for such fishing in India, he says. Ponds in his country are built with only one purpose in mind, to supply food fish for the 350 million inhabitants. Fishing is big business in India. Take the carp for, instance.

They have a species this fish that grows from a seedling, less than one inch long, weight of in one year. This fish important ay seven, that enormous preparations are made throughout inland sections of the country for its production. Seedlings are caught with special type nets in the Indus, and other rivers, during the Monsoon season, (June through August), when the rivers are in flood. They are placed in large earthen vessels, and transported to city market places, where they are sold to natives who operate commercial fish nurseries, or to individuals who have their own nurseries. Carp are kept in the nurseries until they become fingerlings.

approximately two inches long. They are then sold to native farmers for stocking their ponds. If the farmer has his own, private, nursery, he simply transfers to a pond For the finest in COMMERCIAL COOKING EQUIPMENT for SCHOOLS HOSPITALS Restaurants Institutions Always Consult Free Planning Service Food Service Equipment MONTGOMERYGREEN CO.

For the most part they are scooped water-holes. Many of these holes flood during the Monsoon season, only to completely dry up within six to eight months.

During this time, however, the owners have been able produce fish from fingerlings to a weight of five, or more, pounds. The fish are either consumed by the owners' families, dried or corned for future consumption, or sold fresh. A further source food is the fresh water shrimp, "prawn." off There are several varieties. Some of them grow to a length of six to eight inches, with legs over 18 inches long. Nevertheless, these creatures are so plentiful that they account for 6.5 per cent of India's fresh water food supply.

Another important food for the tables of inland, as well as coastal inhabitants of India is their species of shad. This fish, although somewhat different from own, belongs to the same family as dose the American variety. The Indian shad is smaller, according to Dr. Jones, found in huge quantities. A peculiar feature about this fish, however, is that there will be a bumper crop for a year or so, and then the following year, the'number will drop considerably.

Indian fishery stations are constantly studying the habits of their shad in an attempt to discover the answer to this fluctuation in the supply. To date have been unable to find a solution." During the Monsoon season shad travel up the Indus River for 600 to 700 miles. All the way from the Bay of Bengal to Delhi. Fishermen by the thousands swarm into the flooded river waters, boarding any thing that will keep them afloat. And by the use of nets, both modern and primitive, they dip or gill the fish from the muddy waters as they head upstream to spawn.

Dr. Jones says it is not an unsight to see a native astride log, floating down the river, a fish string slung over one shoulder, and his hands holding onto a dip net lowered into the water. When he feels a tug on the net, indicating a fish strike, he quickly pulls it up, removes the shad, strings it, and again lowers the net into the water for another try. Another method employed, in addition to and rafts, is for the fisherman ride down the boats, river on a huge, oval-shaped, earthen vase with a small mouth. When he nets a fish he deposits in the vase, until it becomes loaded to the extent he has to go ashore and unload.

Shad are also caught in large numbers in eiver mouths during winter months, December and January. Jones discussed briefly his nation's economy. India, he says, is well on the road to self-sufficiency. He predicts his country will be self-supporting, in so far as food is concerned, within the next year or so. The mass starvation that plagued the nation during and after World War II has disappeared.

Dr. Jones says there is still some malnutrition in famine areas, due primarily to transportation difficulties. He added, however, that there are no deaths in India today as a result cf starvation. The Central Government is doing every thing possible to provide employment, better transportation facilities, and sufficient food for its masses, and is steadily, progressing, towards the goal of becoming a leading nation and prosperity. 'Incidentally, there is a rather interesting story concerning, the manner in which a India receives his name.

Take Dr. Jones, for instance. He says the name, "Jones," is a common one in his country, due primarily to British influence. Contrary to our OWN LET US PAY YOUR HOSPITAL BILL!
