DISPUTE Of LONG
STANDING ENDED
Agreement Reached Settles Fish
ing and Bait Questions At
Least For War Period

OTTAWA, Ontario, March l4-(As
ISOLATED Pr"Ssl-The long standing fish
cries dispute between the United
States amy Canada has been settled, at
least for the period of the war, by The
adoption by the Canadian government
of the agreement entered into by the
representatives Of the two governments
Under this agreement, the fishing boat
Of both nations may freely enter the
ports of each rOuntry direct from the
fishing banks for the discharge Of their
catches
The fisheries dispute has been the
cause of frequent clashes between
Washington and Ottawa, due mainly to
the seizure of American fishing craft
caught within the three-m Canadian
limit Nv the Canadian fish patrol cut
tiers. The Canadians have had more
or less Of control over the fishing
banks Of Newfoundland through the
fat that the halt fields were all with.
in the Canadian territorial waters,
when, many wears ago, the right was
denicd Canadian fishing boats to enter
American ports for the disposal Of fish,
this right being retained for the benz
fit Of the American fishermen, the
Canadian government refused to per
NIT American ships to buy bait i'll Can
allan ports, or enter tn" Canadian bdh
waters.
The result Of this dispute has been
to keep down the amount Of fish
brought into American ports, with II
consequent increase in the price, aud
to restrict the profits to fine Canadian
fishermen through restricting their
market. Both nations will benefit
through the new agreement.
