FOOD BOARD To
PROBE ADVANCE
OF FISH PRICES

Through an investigation similar
to the one which resulted in reduc-
ton of the price Of milk from Is to II
cents a quart, the territorial food
commission at 2 o'clock tomorrow at.
ternoon will begin probe of the
high price and scarcity of fish In the
Honolulu markets.
After weeks of worry the commits
sion now has in its possession suffic,
lent information on which to base its
investigation. Tomorrow's meeting
will be in the form of a public hear
ing and representatives of fish COM
panies, fishermen, dealers in fish and
the public generally are invited to at
tend. The commission has the power
to subpoena witnesses but, as Chair
man A L. Castle declared at the milk
investigation, has no intention of re-
sorting to drastic measures unless
they are neceSsitated.
The commission is especially anx
ious to hear the sides of both fisher
men and dealers. Representatives OF
the fishing companies will also be
asked to tell what they know about
high prices and the present scarcity
of fish. Walter Macfarlarie, head OF
the Hawaii Tuna Packing Co., will be
present and will present the side Of
the cannery. The cannery was recently
forced to close down because the aku
fishermen refused to go to sea. This
strike was promptly squashed by
the food commission. which warned
the sampan men and fishing compan
les that legal action would be taken
if a settlement was not reached The
settlement was reached the next day.
