H. H. Stevens, former minister of trade and commerce, before thfe mass buying and price spreads committee, of which he recently resigned as chairman, yesterday afternoon took up the question of low earnings of Nova Scotia fishermen and gave notice of several pointed questions he would ask of A. H. Brittain of Montreal, president of the Na- 1 ' tlonal Fish Co.. when he appears before the commission on Monday. While Individual fishermen net ted from $100 to $200 for a season's work, the NaUonal Fish Co., declared Mr. Stevens, paid captains of trawlers $5000 a year, ranging down to ordinary fishermen aboard the : trawlers earning $1300. There was a tremendous discrepancy between "-the fishermen's earnings and the l'iSSf 5 Si ne tfa'leI' crews, he tprr Jcnert minister declared. An extra cent a pound would remove maritime fishermen from a state of penury and, at the same time, would not cut into the earnings of the fish companies, Mr. Stevens said.
