Agreat deal of moncf i heing put into fishing boats. Not only are boats being built locally but in Seattle u great many new vessels declined for Ihe halibut banks are being constructed and equipped and the coming year promises to see greater production than ever in the history of the fishing industry. How long this can last no one can say, but it is not likely (hat the banks can stand the drain for many years. The boats will I lieu have to turn to other kinds of filfing. In the meantime must of the owners r'e making money and they need Ui for the outfit is expensive and the life i a hard out;. Seattle Magazine . Discusses Subject. $!: "Halibut rih.prnjeii of the Pacific have seldom if ever enjoyed a more prosperous year than 1923," says the pacific Fisherman. "Consuming demand for .the fish in practically all markets has been exceptionally strong, and prices as a result have probably averaged higher th.an for auv previous vear. Pro duction also has been satisfactory: considerably larger than for 11)22, and above the average of the past eight years. Both owners and fishermen have -u-cordiiislv prospered.. Their orosneritv is well deservod, and has" been a matter of the highest gratifica tion lo all connected. with the indii.-try. It is accompanied, however, by an element of danger against which vessel owners will do well bi be on their guard. . "Tliis danger is the possibility, of over-development, involving a greater investment than is warranted by the nature of Ihe fishery. Vessel owners ami fishermen who have been careful of their earnings have had surplus fluids to invest, and the prospect of continued prosperity has been a strong inducement to expansion. A further inducement has lain in the increased efficiency of modern heavy-oil engines, especially when installed i in boats of up-to-date type. The result lias been the greatest impetus to new building in many years. Boats have also been diverted lo the halibut industry from other lines of fishing, and the fleet of the Pacific Coast as n whole has heu augmented by perhaps a much as fifty vessels. The shipyards are s4ill crowded with work oj this nature, and it is becoming apparent that, if the present tendency continues, lliere are likely to be more vesels fihing for halibut ifTan can makAe satisfactory returns. In fact, those who have Ihe welfare of the industry most at, heart and indeed themselves profit considerably Jiy the present building boom are begiihiiug to be alarmed, and some bluntly wonder whether the halibut people hate gone crazy. Heavy Investment In New Vessels. "One reason for ronrerif is the heavy investment represented by a nw hulihut vessel. Both material anil labor 'required for . on-irurlioii are far more expensive lhan in former years, and the new engines aUoj-un into high figures. Decidedly good roliirus mns( ,e realized if a profit is to be made on this out lay. Further, while last year's total production was large, it was very wiibdy distributed: the average trip landed at Seattle was less than lO.ooo pounds. Tlev nearer hanks are already depleted, ami wilh the present large ami highly efficient fleet in operation -il is uncertain how long the more dislnnt banks will 'stand the slrnin. The future of the market also is an nncerlnin factor. lender present conditions, the price of fresh halibut to Ihe consumer is often hipher than good cuts of meal. This can hardly be regarded as o normal or permanent condition. It is cerlaiu to limit consumption, wilh resulting decline 'in prices. Indications of this are already seen in the large qnaiitily of lialibnt carried over by Pacific Coast freezers. These paid' high prices last year, but will not be disposed to pav as much this season. "So Tar. there is nothing to indicate that the halibut fleet will not continue reasonably prosperous, notwithstanding the increased number of vessels: but conditions are such that Ihose who contemplate further building, should think cnrefullv before investing their money."
