FISH AND WILDLIFE
 SERVICE TO ASSIST SHRIMP INDUSTRY IN SOUTHEAST

The Southeastern Alaska shrimp industry is to receive assistance from the Fish and Wildlife Service, Educational and Market Develop ment Section, in expanding the markets for the Alaska pink shrimp meat. Plans for the promotion are now being made according to Fred Hipkins, fishery marketing special ist, stationed at the Ketchikan Fishery Products laboratory.
 Recent discoveries of pink shrimp in large commercial quantities off the Washington coast have caused some alarm to the Alaska industry, according to Hipkins. Every pOssi- ble effort will be made to increase the demand for the Alaska product by introducing the shrimp in the large marketing areas in the Mid western and Eastern parts of the United States.
 Markets for Alaska shrimp meat have generally been limited to the Pacific Northwest and California. Imports from Japan of small shrimp meat which sell at lower prices than the Alaska product have decreased the California mar kets to such an extent that most of the shrimp plants in Alaska are operating at about one-third their normal capacity. This handicap, to- gether with the new development off the Washington coast, have caused the industry to request as siStance.
