One shrimp dealer stated: We
hate to leave St. Augustine but
we have to make living.
Others are of the opinion that
the shifting of the shrimp fleet
viii give the fishing grounds a
needed rest" and an opportuni-
~ for shrimp fishing to improve.
Some fishermen blame the
lack of a sufficient supply of
shrimp in waters along the st.
Augustine coast to the fact that
the winter of l949 and the pres
ent winter season has been ex-
tremely warm, Others are of the
opinion that the shrimp grounds
have been over worked"
During a normal year, the
payroll of st. Augustine's shrimp
industry is around 100000.
About 500 persons are employed
in various ways by the local in
dustry which has a large invest
ment in boats and facilities along
the San Sebastian River.
For the past 20 years the
shrimp industry has been the
city's third largest means Of rev
enue-rating behind the tourists
trade and the FEC. Railway.
Shrimp dealers say they dc
not intend TO close down opera
tons here in the face of the open
ing of new fishing grounds of
Key West. However, there will be
few boats left in the St. Angus
tine port for the balance of the
winter fishing season which ends
on March IS. when a 30-day clos.
ed season on catching shrimr

PROTESTS AGAINST
BERGMAN CONTINUE

The movie studio which plans
to release a new Ingrid Bergman
picture next week is saying mo
comment to a rising tide of
protests.
From various sections of the
country protests are being made
against the showing of Miss Berg
mans new picture. "Stromboli. "
This is the picture she made for
Roberto Rossellini during their
widely-publicized romance. Ros-
sellini is quoted as saying he is
the father of Miss Bergman's
baby son. She still is the wife of
DR.. Peter Lindstrom.
Both Catholic and Protestant
church groups have called on
theaters to ban the film. In some
cases a ban is being asked on
any picture in which Miss Berg
man appears or which Rossellini
directs. Also protesting the de-
cision of RKO studio to release
"Stromboli'' are censorship
boards in various cities and
some state legislators. In addi-
ton, at least one theatre chain
has refused to show the picture.
However, a spokesman for
RKO said, mo comment. We are
pretty busy getting ready to re-
lease the picture"
