events ashore one extremely exaggerated report of successes by the essex scottish from windsor on the main beach was responsible for the generals decision to land his floating reserve the fusiliers mont royal on the main beach they ran into withering fire 3 after reading enemy records it can be said with complete cer tainty that the germans had no foreknowledge of the canadian operation also the interception of landing craft on the left flank by german coastal ships did not result in a general loss of the element of surprise canadian officers did not enter the planning until after completion of the outline by britains combin ed operations headquarters and approval of the british chiefs of staff committee when the can adians did collider the outline plan they felt it had reasonable pros pect of success and accepted it thought invasion on 5 the germans persisted in be lieving the landing was the opening phase of an invasion of france and the entire coastal defence army was ordered ready for action 0 the outline plan said that intelligence reports indicate that dieppe is not heavily defended the book added it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that the plan ners underestimated the influence of topography and of the defensive works known to be numerous in the target area 7 prior to the originallyintended raid scheduled for july 4 and can celled due to bad weather only to be launched quickly on aug 19 the plan was materially altered with the heavy bombing attack be- ling deleted the elimination of i this air bombardment removed from the plan the only element of i really heavy support contained in s the raid had considerable influ ence on the germans subsequent system of defence in france they were convinced the landings could be destroyed on the beaches and that the allies would seek in the initial phase of any invasion to capture a major port puzzled germans an unconvenanted result of the dieppe raid was thus to warp the germans system of defence in northwest europe to our advant age the heavy bombing attack was cancelled because the air force commander air vicemarshal t l ieighmallory as unable to guar antee the degree of accuracy which would ensure destruction of the row of houses facing the seafront town would be such as to block the streets with debris and prevent the tanks from getting through to their objectives to the south elimination of the air attack left the assault backed by nothing stronger than fourinch guns of the six small destroyers and boston medium bombers col stacey said the paramount lesson learned was the need for overwhelming fire support includ ing close support during the initial stages of the attack lands jet in tiny clearing less hog feed when more salt used a saving of s20 in feed costs for each dollars worth of salt used was effected during recent experi ments in hog feeding in the united states saltfed pigs gained 146 pounds daily as compared with 126 pounds gained each day by hogs fed the same ration without salt in this experiment each pound of salt saved 94 pounds of feed according to r m rowat deve lopment manager of cils salt division salt is vital to hogs receiv ing supplementary protein of vegetable origin referring to obser vations made at purdue university in indiana ho said that 90pound hogs were fed for so days on a ration of corn soybean oilmeal alfalfa meal and a simple mineral mixture those who had a free choice of salt averaged 255 pounds in weight at the end of the feeding period while those not getting salt averaged only 171 pounds for each pound of salt consumed there was a saving of 3s bushels of corn and four to six pounds of supple ment when supplementary protein was of animal origin benefits of salt were not so great although they were still quite
