Plans For Gulf
Fishing Boats
Are Advanced

WASHINGTON, D. c. tSpeciaD
Representative of the Fish and
Wildlife Service of the Interior
Department, and of the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation,
have given the green light, in their
testimony before the House Mer-
chant Marine and Fisheries COM
mittee, to the Colmer Bill author
ling the exploration of CONNER
cial fishing possibilities in the
Gulf of Mexico and adjacent wa
tiers. Specifically, the bill would
authorize and make mandatory
the transfer of two large explor-
atory trawlers from the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation to
the Fish and Wildlife Service,
constructed by the Government
during the war, ard used in the
Pacific Ocean off the West Coast
principally in finding new tuna
fishing grounds. These vessels, the
Oregon and Alaska, are of steel
construction, about 100 feet long,
and constructed at a cost of APP
proximately $3.50. 10000 each.
The Mississippi Congressman
told his colleagues of the commit
tee of the recently developed in
terest in the possibility of the
establishment of the tuna fishing
and canning industry on the Gulf
Coast of Mississippi. He said that
the tuna fishing grounds were
800 to 1000 miles closer to the
Mississippi Coast than they are
to the present location of this
industry on the Coasts Of Wash
ington and California.
Tuna in Gulf
His statement that there were
great possibilities for the discov-
cry of tuna fishing in the Gulf
of Mexico was borne out by Off
Gals of the Fish and Wildlife
Service. Mr.. Colmer further point
ed out to the committee that
while the location of new tuna
fishing grounds was one of the
detectives sought, that there were
great possibilities of the discov-
cry of new fishing grounds for
red snappers, mackerel, trout and
other highly priced fish. He illus
trated the possibilities by show
ing that as the result of a similar
exploration by the Government
in the catching of shrimp a few
years ago, new grounds far off
shore had been discovered where
the large jumbo shrimp are now
taken in great quantities.
Andrew w. Anderson of the
Fish and Wildlife Service, told
the committee that the possibil-
tiles of the development of the
fisheries of the Gulf of Mexico
were UNEMPLOYED and unlimited.
Mr.. Colmer expressed satisfac-

place an injured guard. There is
no traffic light at 10Th, he
pointed out, while at 41st there
is signal light.
Not satisfied with the make
shift arrangement the mothers
suggested that perhaps the lack
of an adequate staff was due to
the fact that women service
guards have been cut to four
hours pay per day. Formerly
they worked an 8-hour day. "a
woman who has to support her
self, or a family" Mrs. Swan
son said, "cOuId not do so on a
so percent wage cut"
In a statement to The Stand
ard, Capt. Amen denied that
the wage-hour cut had reduced
his staff to a dangerously low
point Were in the process of
recruiting and within two weeks
We'll have new personnel" he
said. Some of these women
guards are making an issue of
the reduction to four hours. But
they make $3.50 an hour and
the Park District realized that
it shouldn't pay them for the
time they were not actually at
the school crossings"
On the 8-hour shift, the
guards patrOlled areas around
the schools during the time the
students were in classes. Cur
rently they are on duty only in
the morning, at noon and in the
evening.
Despite the fact that they
must be at home during those
hours fixing lunch and break
fast for their children, some of
the mothers are considering vol
unteering for guard duty at 41st
and South Parkway. They still
feel that ''it's fortunate no cssu-
atty has occurred so far"
