According to information here, the buyers of halibut ,on the coast have suggested to the operators that it would tbe to their best in'rrests. at far as prices are concerned, to defer the placing of fresh fish on the market until after a further chance has been given to clear out frown stocks which have not bren moving as rapidly of late as might have been hoped for It has been suggested by the buyers that the frozen fish situation might be somewhat Improved by March 15.
