"There

about

Mr.

The

the

of

to

Policy
Condemned
The
fisheries
policy
announced
by
Mr.
Howe
was
condemned
by
i
the
Vancouver
local
of
the
British!
Columbia
Fishermen's
Protective
Association
last
night.
It
was
the
opinion
of
the
fishermen
that
the
policy
was
directed
against
their
association.
The
meeting
adopted
a
resolution
addressed
to
Premier
Tolmle
objecting
to
all
the
proposals
announced
by
Mr.
Howe
as
restricting
the
liberties
of
British
subjects
by
compelling
them
to
fish
for
certain
canneries.
