FISH PRODUCTS
 REGISTER SLUMP
War Measures Pushed Indus try to High Level, But Peace
 Pushed It Back
By Associated Press

Washington, January 9.-Production and consumption of fishery products, stimulated and encouraged by govern mental and other agencies as war measure, have shown decided slump, according to the bureau of fisheries.
 large under-consumption of fish ad- vancing prices of labor and materials and 8 curtailment in the export trade the report says, have placed many fish ermen in serious situation. As the ma iority of fishermen are small individual
 producers, who have devoted their lives
 to their calling, exposed to unusual hard ships and dangers, with little or no train-
 ing for a change of livelihood, the bu-
 reau of fisheries says it is important
 that some measure of relief be afforded
 them.
 Production of fish in the first 10
 months of 1920 showed falling off of
 more than 100000 pounds, valued al
 $600, 900. as compared with the same pe- rod of 1919. according to the bureau Many of the large New England traw- lers have been tied up for lack of proper markets and production of groupers or the gulf coast has bee.t reduced by lack of demand in American markets. These are representative of the conditions to- day in the fisheries of the entire country the bureau of fisheries says.
