HALIBUT BOATS T0 REMAIN IN PORT 2 WEEKS| Will Delay Opening of Sea—{ son Because of Glut of Fish on Market AGREEMENT IS BEING REACHED BY BOATMEN | Alaska Fish Vessels Will| Remain Off Banks if Seattle Boats Do Same A glutted frozen fish market and fear of repetition of which existed in 1928 in the halibut industry has caused an exchange of telegrams between the Fishing Vessels Owners Association of Seat- tle and Juneau boat owners result- ing in an agreement to remain off the fishing banks the first two weeks of the halibut open season. Petersburg and Ketchikan halibut men also have agreed to this, ac- cording to cablegrams received by | 1. Goldstein, and the Canadian fishermen will also fall in line, it is said. [ The following telegram addressed | to I. Goldstein and Company, Ju- neau, was received from Seattle January 21: | “Fish companies are having diffi- culty in disposing of frozen hall but and large surplus will be held over unless vessels delay operations. | Prices during summer will be sme unless companies dispose of plus. We fear repetition of con-| ditions in 1928 when low prices resulted from surplus being held| over. Vessel owners here have de-| cided to stay in additional two weeks if boat owners up north will do same Please get meeting of Juneau boat owners and find whether they are willing to stay| in with us and wire results im- mediately. “Fishing Vessel Owners Assn.” Local Reply After a consultation among local boatmen the following wire was sent in reply: “Juneau boat owners will stay in two weeks if the rest of the fleet will do the same Keep us informed if there are any changes. | Let us know what the rest of| Alaska towns are going to do. “Juneau Boat Owners.” Cause for Glut Fishermen interviewed today as-| sert that the glutted condition of the frozen halibut market is due to the big catches taken to Victoria by Japanese fishing boats. Over 4,000,000 pounds of halibut were unloaded there last season at & price considerably under the pre- vailing rate paid to American and Canadian fishermen, it is said. | A delegation of Juneau boat own- ers will attend the Chamber of Commerce luncheon tomorrow for the purpose of explaining the co! dition of their industry. A peti tion addressed to Congress will ask | for some measure of relief from what they consider unfair compe- tition. About 450 boats and 2,300 men in Seattle, British Columbia and Alas- ka are affected by the agreement to delay fishing for two weeks.
