Slightly more than 2% million eggs of three species went into over- 
seas shipments. 
The Territory of Hawaii and Puerto Rico each 
received rainbow-trout eggs, the species being well established in: 
each of these areas; but with little or no natural reproduction. The 
shipment of lake-trout eggs to Peru was quite successful in comparison 
with the failure of the previous attempt. Whitefish eggs also sur- 
vived the long trip but were lost during the subsequent incubation 
period. 
An appropriation to finance such cooperative work with the Amer- 
ican republics is highly necessary in view of the technical difficulties 
encountered. Such an appropriation became available for the fiscal 
year 1941.
