PAGE EIGHT FISH SHORTAGE PREDICTED FOR COMING WINTER | A severe shortage of fish next winter was predicted today by the Fish and Wildlife Service of the Department of the Interior on the basis of current holdings of frozen fish, which on June 1 totaled only 40,000,000 pounds or 25 percent be- low average. Holdings of fish in cold storage houses normally reach the lowest level of the year May 1, and thereafter begin to build up sharply to a peak in the late fall These fish serve as & ve for the winter g operations a bad weather, and fish are unavailable Holdings this year increased some 8,000,000 pounds between May 1 and June 1, but the normal increase dur- ing this period is about 13,000,000 pounds. ast year about 70,000,000 pounds were in storage on June 1, compared with the present holdings of 40,000,000 ish and Wildlife Service officials said that production generally is running ahead of last year's fig- ures, but current market demand for fish is so heavy that little is left for freezing. With reserves of frozen fish low and only a small percentage of the pack of canned fish available for civilians this year, an acute shortage of fish next win- ter is expected. Preliminary figures released by the Service indicated that on June 1, holdings of salt-water fish totaled 33,400,000 pounds, fresh-water fish approximately 2,000,000 pounds, shell fish 4,500,000 pounds. Whiting, cod, mackere] and haddock, which ordi- narily comprise a large percentage of the shlt-water fish in storage, all shower sharp declines compared with last year. Holdings of fresh- water fish were only about a sixth as large as last year; shellfish hold- ings, on the other hand, showed little change.
