Minister

Ernest
Ber-
trand
indicated
In
an
interview
that
he
was
actively
considering
the
question
of
possibly
extending
the
three
mile
limit
for
fishing
to
ten
miles
or
an
even
greater
distance
as
a
measure
to
protect
the
Dominion's
fishing
industry.

existent
before
the

when

ing

operated
outside
the
three-mile
limit
ff
the

coast
and
carried
away

the
move
of
extending

would

operating
off
