FISHERMEN AND
FRESH FISH MEN
DISSATISFIED
Fishermen Are Sending Word
To Men On West Coast to
Held Meeting June 1

II. R. Thompson. local fish buyer
ana shipper declared this morning
while discussing the prices of SAL
men set ty the United States Food
Administration, that the local fish
ermen and fresh fish buyers were both
dissatisfied with the new regulation.
The chief causes OF the dissatis-
faction arise from the ruling that
fresh fish buyers cannot offer any
higher prices for the bright" chums
= the cohoes than the canneries offer,
allowing no inducement TO the fisher
men 10 bring in their fish in the bet
Ter condition in which fish for fresh
ish market must be packed. The
fresh fish buyers will have to go out
C business altogether unless this is
remedied," Mr.. Thompson explained.
Another cause for discomfort is the
price set for dog salmon, chums sew
en- cents and pinks FIVE cents apiece
This is a ridiculous price. II a dog
salmon weighing y pounds, an aver
age weight, is not worth more than
a. cent pound, the fishermen
will certainly not fish. Then TOO, the
difference offered men fishing with in
dependent gear, boat and fuel is only
one cent per fish, which is not en-.
cugh," Mr.. Thompson added.
Il the fresh fish buyers are allowed
70 make their own prices to the fish
ermen. allowing for the market chang
es, the condition can be remedied, Mr..
Thompson believes.
Mr.. c. J. Collins, representing the
San Juan Fishing & Packing company
one of the big fresh fish buyers re-
marked this morning that the regula-
lions did not state whether or not
he fresh fish buyers were allowed to
pay for delivery "If the buyers are
allowed this difference in price, per
/ haps the situation can be worked out
without any friction" Mr. Collins
said
Mr.. Oliver, secretary for the Alaska
/ Labor Union, local No. 5, confirmed
| the report made by Mr.. Thompson
hat the fishermen in town had sc!
cut Tor the west coast to notify the
/ .shermen there OF the new regula
lions, and were planning on mass
meeting here for June l. Il hope,
said Air. Oliver, that conditions viii
have changed by that time, SO thai
the meeting will be unnecessary"
