 The plan would entail a direct system of selling from fisherman to consumers in the states. without the intervention of middleman.
 Juneau was the, last place to sanction, all other branches having done so already, and it is antic- ipated that the cooperative mar keting will be in effect next spring. e .<. l The committee left today noon for Sitka by way of Port Aleyan- der on the Pelican, Capt.
