Mr, Sinclair told a press con- |e there were several big differences. between Canadian and Russian fisheries. Russia, he said, does substantial inland fishing while “ours constitutes only 10 per cent of the eatch."” He said the Russians build large trawlers with built-in freezing and processing units, like the Sverdlovsk because their fishing banks are distant. They can’t understand, he said, that we use smaller trawlers because our banks are close to home ports. COMMON PROBLEMS Mr. Sinclair said Russia. and “more common problems on the Pacific coast.” While Russia does little fishing in the Atlantic, she fishes exten- sively in the Pacific, He said he hoped Russia would eventually sign international fish conservation treaties with coun- tries fishing in the Pacific such as Japan, Canada and the United States. “Part of the purpose of my visit was to get Russia to join these treaties.” Although Russia. is the second greatest fishing nation -in the world, he said, she is an. importer of fish because she cannot. ful- fil her huge demand. He hoped to improve - markets for Canad- ‘ian fish in Russia, ' Today the Russians will visit fish plants and the fisheries bx- perimental station in Novas§ ‘SE0- tia. NG a Makes Sure.

The metal device locks over the auto tag and is not casily removed with- out the key. Try pry it off, a would-be thicf would need suf- ‘ficient tools and would attract the attention of passersby if he attempted it. To drive the auto away with the device covering the license plate would be a sure signal to police and ather motorists that the vehicle was stolen, Some 300 cars are swiped cach month in Frankfurt, Germany and the device is intended as protection in addition to the conventional car and ignition locks. Ab top is a tag with the gimmick, and at bottom is a tag with the protector removed for driving.
