VICTORIA, B. C., May 28.-The British Columbia Department of Fisheries has telegraphed to the Federal Government at Ottawa a protest against the purported plans of United States interests to oper- ate floating fish reduction plants off the Province in offshore waters.

 The protest to Fisheries Minister Michaud said: Tt is the opinion of this department that the con- templated action will have the eff feet of throwing the door wide open and on a large scale for invasion by Europeans and Japanese in the sal mon and halibut industries in the waters now protected by Interna- tional treaty between Canada and the United States.
 "The Canadian Manufacturers Association branch has protested to George Alexander, Assistant Commissioner of Fisheries of Brit ish Columbia saying that it is view ed with grave concern the plans of the United States interests to place floating plants in operation off the British Columbia shores. Even if the vessels are stationed off the coast of Washington State it would follow that seine boats would make their catches in the waters contig- uous to British Columbia"
