CALIFORNIA FISH PLANTS
 MOVE TO SEA
Effort Now Being Made to Prevent Practice-Pe-
 ton Brought Out
By SAM JACKSON

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. Jan. 27.- It's all right for canneries to send boats out to catch fish, but when the cannery itself moves right out to sea-is that fair to the fish?
 This question is before California in an initiative petition designed to limit and possibly abolish an infant industry consisting of seven float ing reduction plants that have been thriving on the immense shoals of sardines off this coast.
 Depletion" of the fisheries is the charge brought by the packers of the petition against this new high-speed method of handling fish.
 Cuts Expenses
 There is no depletion" replies the Pacific Coast Fisheries institute, representing the floating factories. This campaign is financed by the shore reduction plants, just to pro- tect their old time monopoly"
 The sardine merchant marine ' containing seven mother ships and l20 purse seiners representing an investment of $5,600,000, dates back to experiments in 1926. Stanley Hil- Ter, a waste-products engineer, got the idea then of canning and pro- cessing fish at sea, thus avoiding the costly haul to shore plants.
 His floating plant, the Lake Mira flores, got into steady operation in 1S30 It was successful and sea- going factories began to multiply.
 Profit Lies In Fish Oil
 Operations are conducted by the mother ship with fish continually fed by fleet of seiners. The fish, much larger than true sardines, are known in the northwest at pilch- ards. But here they are called Cali fornia sardines. More than 100 tons often are brought up with the single casting of a net.
 Out of each ton received 1872 cases are packed as human food as required by law. The remainder are processed into oil and into fish meal. The latter is the real pay crop of the Sardine shoals and it is receiv- ing increasing favor for fattening cattle and poultry and for fertil- izing the soil
 Work In Dark Of Moon
 It is the claim of the operators that their men are the highest paid marine workers in the world. As for the 1,200 fishermen on the sein- CTS, they have to work only in the dark of the moon. That is the only time the silvery banks of sardines, feeding on microscopic plankton, be- come visible.
 The fish meal ordinarily is sacked aboard the mother ships but the new S500,000 S.S. Polarine merely stores it in the hold, then loads is through a suction pipe into box cars, whence it is distributed in various farm cen- ters.
 While the floating factories oper- ate outside the three-mile limit in international waters, the initiative petition would curb them by mak- ing the purse seiners amenable to revocable permits from the state fish and game department.
 The State Federation of Labor has entered the fight on the side of the young industry. A resolution ap- proved in convention charges that to put the floating reduction plants out of operation merely would leave the waters open for exploitation by the Japanese.
