So. Cal. Facing
Very Uncertain
Fishing Season
II, United Press Leased Wire

SAN PEDRO, April 1.-Southern
California is facing one Of the most
uncertain fishing seasons in its Ga
reor, according TO local fishermen.
Two reasons arc advanced: one,
that fish have in former years been
coming to California waters are re.
naming in Mexican seas; the other,
that the Mexican government has
placed an export tax of $3.50 Il ton
on tuna and albaeore in addition to
the lieensa charge of $25 a month
for American boats operating in
Mexican waters.
AS the former tax Of 50 4 ton was
considered about all that the mar
kot could stand, it is considered
doubtful if any boats will 90 down
the coast to fish unless the tax is
reduced.
