Norwdy's Budget Record High

Norway's Finance Minister Olav
Meisdalshagen recently presented
to the Parliament proposals for the
1951-52 State budget. With rev.
enues and expenditures both set at
1857 million kroner, the budget is
expected to balance without resort
ing to loans or increased taxes.
Taking into account the additional
defense ALLEGATIONS voted last fall,
the current budget is about 40
million kroner higher than that
for the last fiscal year.
Proposed appropriations for the
Department of Defense are listed
at 305 million, plus an additional
100 million kroner for the emerg-
ency preparedness program. To-
tai military expenses for the two
year period, July 1, 195O-June 80,
1852 are estimated at $40 million
kroner, or about 500 million kroner
a year. Proposals for increased
defense appropriations will be
made also in the coming fiscal
year.
Expenditures for price subsidies
are proposed to be cut by $50 mill
lion kroner, from 600 million to
$50 million kroner. ALLEGATIONS for
the Ministry of Social Affairs is
put at 346 million kroner.

out Norway, especially in sparsely
populated districts. About $50
branch stores have been opened in
the past few years. In 1920 there
We're 40 regular book dealers in
rural districts; today the number
of stores is three times as high.
Since World War II, the Asso-
citation has employed a travelling
secretary whose job it is to pro-
mote the exchange of ideas among
the book dealers, on the one hand,
and between the book dealers and
the Association, on the other hand.
His special task has been the or
ganization of new branch stores,
the most important development in
Norwegian book distribution since
the war In some of the larger CT
ties a book dealer may operate as
many as 10 branch stores. Permis-
sion to open a branch store is usu-
ally granted the best qualified
book dealer in each particular
community.
Chairman Groth, of the Norwe-
sian Publishers Association, in his
address at the recent centenary
meeting, hailed the commission
system as the most effective and
most flexible tool for distributing
books in a sparsely populated and
sprawling country such as Nor
way. Noting the tremendous in
crease in book sales in recent
years, Mr.. Groth added: publish
ers and book dealers must at all
times keep quality in mind. If we
do that, perhaps those who SO
readily despair of our cultural life
will gradually learn to appreciate
the fact that each year increasing
numbers of Norwegians become ar
dent book readers"

Morse Herring
Search Begun

The Norwegian research vessel
&c. o. Sars,' specially designed
and equipped for scientific studies
of fish, recently left Bergen in
search of early winter herring
shoals off the Norwegian coast.
Fisheries consultant Finn De-
void, who directs the scientific ex-
petition, told the press that hard
ly anything is known concerning
the whereabouts of the herring in
the period between September and
January-February. This is the
first attempt of it's kind ever made,
he said, warning that there was no
guarantee of achieving conclusive
results.
1t was Consultant Devoid who
late last summer, tipped off Nor
wegian fishermen, vainly trying
their luck in Iceland waters, that
new herring shoals had been dis
covered about so sea miles south
east of the lonely island of Jan
Mayen in the North Atlantic. The
fishermen who switched to the new
location returned to Norway with
capacity hauls.
With these good results in mind,
the Norwegian Iceland Fisher
mems Association has named a
committee to report on recon-
mendations for processing and
marketing of the herring due to be
caught off Jan Mayen in 1851.
In another development, the Nor
wegian Ministry of Finance and
the Board of Norways Herring
Sales Organization have approved
proposals for State-guaranteed
herring prices during the 1851
fishing season. The proposed pric-
es. higher than last years. are II
kroner per hektoliter for sloe her
ring and IA kroner for spring her
ring. One hektoliter of herring Is
approximately the equivalent OF
200 lbs.

At festive centenary meeting
in Oslo's largest auditorium-the
University Aula, the Association
announced a gift of 100000 kroner
to the Bergen Commercial College
for free and independent research
of problems in book distribution
Since January 10, 1851, when IL
Oslo book dealers met to found
the Association, book distribution
in Norway has experienced a ire
mendous growth. Today, about :
million books are sold annually to
Norway's 3,250,000 population, or
an average of 2-2/3 books for each
Norwegian. According to Henrik
Groth, chairman of the Norwegian
Publishers Association, this is a
world record. Mr.. Groth reported
that Norway's annual book sales
totalled so million kroner, which
means that the average NOrwe-
eian family spends about S5 kro-
ner a year on books. 400 of the
books are sold by Oslo dealers, VINO
receive orders from all parts of the
country.
The Norwegian Book Dealers
Association today has $50 men,
bers, of whom 80 are publishers
Besides. there are 500 individual
members.
Must Be Qualified
Book distribution in Norway is
based on methods which are quite
different from those prevailing in
the United States Norwegian book
dealers, for one thing, are obliged
to carry all new books that are
published. Membership in the
Book Dealers Association is an
essential requirement for selling
books in Norway. New members
are admitted, on the basis of
qualifications, by a 3-man board
of publishers. Minimum require
ments for membership are five
years apprenticeship in a book
store, coupled with three-months'
trade course, plus five years addi-
tional experience as a certified as
sistant book dealer. Anyone who
meets these qualifications may APP
ply to the Association for permits
sion to open a new book store.
Normally the request is granted.

lishment of branch stores through
