sket-

the
painstaking
work
done
by
the
commission,
the
Investigation
covering
an
area
two
thousand!
miles
in
length.
The
work
had
been
going
on
since
1924
and
as
a
result
it
was
decided
that
the
area
might
be
well
divided
into
two
in-
habited
by
two
distinct
families
of
halibut.
One
of
these
was
north
and
west
of
Cape
Spencer
and
the
other
south
of
that
point.
These
areas
would
have
to
be
dealt
with
separately.
The
halibut
south
of
Cape

grow
much
more
rapidly
than
did
those
to
the
north
and
the
younger
halibut
on
each
did
not

areas.

While

it

PORTFOLIO
OF

MONTREAL,
Dec.

The

Gazette
today
publishes
the
following
Ottawa
dispatch:
"It
is
believed
that
the
disposition
of
the
federal
portfolio
of
finance
has
narrowed
down
to
two
alternatives
either
that
the
Prime
Minister
will
retain
it
himself
for
at
least
another
session
of
Parliament
and
until
further

is
completed
or
that
Hon.
II.
II.
Stevens,
minister
of
trade
and
commerce,
will
be
appointed
to
the
post.
It
is
even
rumored
that
Mr.
Stevens
had
assurance
of
the
portfolio
prior
to
leaving
London
where
he
was
an
Imperial
Conference
delegate."
"No
ground
whatever
exists
for
such
a
report,"
declared
Hon.
II.
II.
Stevens
today
in

with

that

Opposition
was"
also
expressed
against
the
proposal
to
limit
the
number
of
fishing
licences
granted.
It
was
felt
by
the
fishermen
that
transfer
of
fish
from
one
area
to
another
should
be
permitted.
The
proposal
to
suspend
further
systematic
annual
reduction
of

Japanese
fishing
licence
was
supported.
A
standard
form
of
fishing
licence
plates,
similar
to
those
used
for
automobiles,
was
urged.
New
proposals
made
at
the
Prince
Rupert
conference
were
that
the
Dominion
government
should
employ
hunters
to
destroy
the
seal,
this
to
be
supplemental
to
the
existing
bounty
system,
that
protection
be
taken
off

in
the
interests
of

conservation,
that
ob

be
placed
above

boundaries,
in.
creeks
so
as
to
pre
vent
illegal
fishing
above
those
boundaries,
and
that
drag
seines
be
ntirely
abolished.
Mr.
Found
asked
the
fishermen
not
to
discuss
in
his
presence
a
re
solution
on
which
they
went
on
record
as
being
absolutely
opposed
to
any
further
transfer
of
administra
tive
powers
over
the
fisheries
from
the
federal
to
the
provincial
government.
This
resolution
will
be
presented
to
the
department
In
writing.
Only
fishermen
took
part
In
the
conference
with
Mr.
Found
al
though
representatives
of
the
Cana
dian
Fish
&
Cold
Storage
Co.
and
Canadian
Fishing
Co.
were
also
In
attendance.
The
conference
lasted
for
about
two
hours
and
a
half
and
was
held
In
the
Moose
Hall.
Oustavs
Norman,
president;
Charles
Lord,
secretary,
and
Mike
Anderson,
one
of
the
members
of
the
executive,
were
spokesmen
for
the
Northern
British
Columbia
Salmon
Fishermen's
Association.
Associated
with
Mr.
Found
in
taking
the
views
of
the
fishermen
were
James
Boyd,
supervisor
of
fisheries
for
District
No.
2,
and
Frank
Warne
of
the
Dominion
Fisheries
office.
In
opening
the
proceedings,
Mr.
Found
explained
that
the
purpose
of
his
annual
visit
to
this
coast
was
to
consult
with
those
engaged
In
the
various
branches
of
the
Industry
with
regard
to
changes
In
regulations
which
it
might
be
felt
desirable
to
bring
about.
He
hoped
that,
in
addition
to
having
sucn
puduc
meetings,
it
might
be
possible
In
the
1
near
future
to
have
a
conference
at
,
some
central
point
with
representa-1
tives
of
every
branch
of
the
Indus-,
try
in
attendance.
It
was
difficult
otherwise
to
hear
all
sides
and
come
to
mutual
agreement.
There
was
a
community
of
interest
throughout
the
industry
and
it
was
impossible
for
one
branch
to
profit
long
If
another
failed
to
profit.
The
department
was
endeavoring
at
all

Mr.

hoped
that
none
would

Speaking
of
the
condition
of
the
'salmon
Industry.
Mr.
Found
re-
marked
that
the
Increased
runs
of
recent
years
indicated
that,
after

the
department
had
met
with

some
