Fish

special to the Post says: The terms of the
reported new reciprocity treaty caused the
utmost indignation among the fishing in.
dustry at Gloucester, and Democrats and
Republicans alike unite in condemning it.

largest dealers said: 1.-The new treaty
means nothing but reciprocity in fish. II
such a treaty should be ratified the fishing
industry OF the country would be ruined
and transferred to Canada. This is just
what Gloucester's fishermen have been
fighting against. Reciprocity in fish means
the gradual decadence OF the fishing busi-
ness III the United States All fishermen
here say that they do not want to fish in
side the three mile limit, but they do want
trading privileges. I'VE might as well an
mex Canada and be done with it" they say,
''if We are to have free fish,"
