Cooperation The Fisheries Dirsctor urged that cooperation of those inter ed ip the industry is essential. A. L. Hager, appearing for the New England Fishing Company, said that if the government de- cided to close some of the de- pleted chicken halibut banks, such as those off Goose Island, | | in the annual catch. He said an- other feature worthy of considera-| tion by the Commission is that a reduction in the catch, even slightly, will cause the price to go up and would automatically | result in greater importation of halibut in a frozen form from| Japan. He said fishing companies were already gredtly handicapped by prices they had to pay fisher men for their product. He said the Japanese had an improved freezing process, and the quality was better than at first. Japanese Feared Hager said it had taken the Japanese 12 years to perfect the capning processes of salmon ani he feared the same in the case of halibut. | Lr. Thompson stated the na- tural rate of increase of halibut| was two fish per pair of spawn-; ing fish. Henry O'Malley, American Fish-| eries Commissioner, said the na- tural increase of red salmon was three per pdir and the rate, among other varfeties was un- known.
