Babcock, chairman of the International Fisheries Commission, in a statement in reply to criticisms uttered against the short season for halibut fishing proclaimed recently. "At that, time the whole catch of over 50,019.000 pounds came from off the coasts of British Columbia and Southeastern Alaska, with the latter playing a minor role. Even then production wai falling and costs rising accordingly. And by 1938 these banks were producing tout slightly above forty per cent of their former yield. The fishermen working theae banks were obtaining between one-sixth and one-fifth of the pound-age which they had obtained twenty years earlier by an equal amount of labor. The ma)or fishery had shifted far to Ue westward and into the, hand of large cnesel-orKec vessels of American registry. O-ly by rebuilding the southern banks could the fishery there be restored. "In 1934 the first halibut treaty was written. Under it the International Fisheries Commission was charged wtth the duty of making a full and complete Investigation oo the amount which could be taken from any area. The purpose was not W increase the stse of halibut taken, bat to Increase the amount of spawn produced, wtth the realisation that only by temporary restraint could the yield be permarentl. increased. The (rade was fully warned that the expected IneawaaeJci abundance of hal-ttot. with tfie fishing fleet remain ing as it was. would eraMe the fleet to land halibut at such a rate as to disturb the market and reach the limit early In the season. "Daring 1W the limit given the aoathern grounds was sut IMent to carry the season to within tune days of the Mae of general closure November 1. But during IMS. owing solely to the Increase in the eat-h that could be taken per day. r oer trio, a total amount equal to that taken to ttt on southern grounds- Area t of the Commla-ator -was landed by August 90 or nVetvabouU The season closed Au-amt 23 with the limit exceeded by nearly three-quarters of a million pounds, is neeif a considerable increase over the stated limit. "The season was a abort ore. because there were more flah on the banks. Records show that there are 20 per cent, more than in 19M, due solely to the restraint which economic cordittens and the Corn- mission has exercised during the three years alnee IMG. "There Is no reason to doubt but that, if the Oommlaslon relaxes cortrol. this increase will be swept away by a sjttgle season's heavy fishing at saw financial returns for excessive laocrl-fs long before the increase eon be made per wanent by a er responding ln- erra.se in spawn. When there are more young fan produced there can be an inert see In the catch permitted, but only then. "It is nt as though the catch limit had been set at lea than the market would take. It was on the contrary in exeea of what nearly everyone agreed could be profl wisHy handled. Yet as much by reason of the limits as any other factors, prices have been better throughout the season. Moreover, the Canadian fleet has no reason for complaint. Those of lis vessels which operated this year profited both toy the existence of a limit and bv the vnlnntrv ; curtailment carried on by the American fleet For example, of 37 Prince Rupert Teasels that fished each of the past five years, records to date of writing show that the landings are much in excea of those of the high year 1020. as follows: 1M94,7.000 pounds: 1930 -3352.000 pounds: 10313.814,000 pounds; 19323 .882,000 pounds and In 19336.000,000 pounds. "Of these rebels, those which were not wrecked,-or did not charter for nalmon, landed over 30 per cent, more apiece, on the average than in 1990. wtth price 30 per cent, higher than In 192. "rurubermore. the lnereaa In the catch taken was not such as to make It of leas valuable "large fiah. On the contrary, the small chwkera increased nearly as much as the mediums and large. Re building of the banks cannot come except by allowing the young to survive, and the present lnereaa is therefore what is required to in crease the ultimate supply of spawn, which is necessary before the banks can produce more young. "At present, there Is only one way to save what has been gained to shorten the season. "In eonnectlon wtth this It should be realised that were the Commission to remove its limit, all that has been gained for per manent Improvement of the hail- of the halibut It reported In due but grumes would be swept away i ume. on we oasis oi extensive in one year's onrr of ovet-wodttc- : research, showing among ether tim ami rutaioM nrWa that mU " things the condition these south ern banks and the reason for it As a result a new treaty was writ- profit no one.
