MANUFACTURE OP SHELL FUSES
Sir, —In view of the ban on talking too much about our shipping, is it wise for public,. Ministerial, and broadcasting utterances to be made concerning our latest effort of “Empire importance’—the making of shell ifuses? Without doubt the enemy soon becomes aware of the facts, but when they are made with such a fanfare they immediately assume to the enemy all the importance we attach to them, not merely the importance, however great, the information would have had had It been obtained by the enemy’s routine methods. In any case, the information so publicly and gratuitously given by this itself becomes a challenge.—Yours, etc., J.S.M. November 4, 1941.
