It was the Onah's third trip of the season. The Deep Sea Fishermen's Union of Seattle has sent a qucstionalrrc to Prince Rupert halibut boat owners and fishermen suggesting steps of curtailing production ' witH 'a view to keeping frozen stocks low and thus preventing demoralization of the market. Principal sug gestions are that there be a considerable period of tie-up for each boat between trips and that fishing be suspended altogether during the months of July and August when the fish are not in very good condition anyway. A new ordcr-ln-council which has Just been issued by the Domin ion government removes Ogden Channel, between Porcher and Banks Island, from the Skeena River gill-net area, thus opening this locality to purse seining for salmon after July 15 of each year. Ogden Channel has been closed to purse-seining for the last four years. Eugene Rousseau, formerly manager of the B. C. Packers at Lowe fnlet and weR known in Prince Ru- jcrt. is again acting as general manager this year of the British Columbia Fishermen's Co-opera tive Association which has been engaged In the salmon canning industry for the past two years. At the innual meeting of the association, held recently in Vancouver. L. H. C. Phillips, president, said: "All things -onsldered, the 1931 operations were quite satisfactory, showing a surplus In spite of the fact that exchange on the pound sterling caus ed some losses In United Kingdom shipments. It was not expected that the year's results would be the same as if general business conditions had been normal." The asso ciation has definitely decided to op erate its Vancouver cannery this season but no decision as yet has been made in regard to other plants. Shipments of fish, fresh and frozen, from Prince Rupert during the 11 months ending November 30, 1931, aggregated 27,564,869 pounds, a decrease of.fl.093,400 pounds from the same, period In the year preceding. Of the Xptal 11.025,677 pounds was American fish, shipped to the United State,in bond. Of the whole figure the Immense majority was halibut. The big majority of the halibut boats are this season savine their halibut livers and landing them here for shipment to the Abbott Laboratories at Chicago. The price fixed is 12c per pound which makes it well worth while to save the liv ers. The Booth Fisheries Co. fur nishes cans In which the livers are placed lmediately after being taken from the fish, the cans then being buried in ice In the vessel's hold. The livers must be entirely fresh when landed In order to be saleable. John Dybhavn. general manager of the Massett Canners Ltd. can nery at Old Massett in addition to his other multifarious duties in the fisheries, is pf the opinion that none of the canneries In the Queen Charlotte Islands district will operate this year, which is the big cycle year for pinks, unless the market for that variety of salmon improves very materially within the next few months. Mr. Dybhavn's plant was the only one in the district to operate last year and then it put up only a very small pack. Lining For Hold During the past winter a new metal hold was Installed in the local halibut boat Ingrld II.. Capt. Charles Lundqulst. This particular type of metal Is expected to aid much In keeping the fish In good condition prior to landing. The metal was supplied through Edward Llpsett Ltd. and the Installation was done by Ratchford Si Shenton with the assistance of Capt. Lundqulst and crew. The entire Interior of the flshhold was sheathed with the alloy. Capt. C. B. Haan of Queen Charlotte City has chartered his seine-boat Beatrice II. to the A. P. Allison Logging Co. to be used for towing I purposes, according to word reach.-jlng here from. the Queen Charlotte j Islands.

He planned on returning down the coast today. i Such overhaul work to fisheries patrol vessels In this district as the j department is unable to handle lt-iseli will be carried out this spring I at the local dry dock.
