and therefore in the name of all nshcrnn,-yt1df.h3i,1i. we make this sub-

sion 0 a . mgisiiv its nature the fishing pro- fession is one of high risk. Where such risk is undertaken high re- turns ordinally compensate those ventliflllz its pursuit. At the mom- mt, however, our fishing industry is not sufficiently robust to enable us to recover from sudden and severe losses. This condition we do not regard as normal but rather one due to a lack of technical de- velopment and prudent planning.

"we are indeed hopeful now that

this situation has been taken in ham; by our Provincl'nl Govern- ment in its Department of in-

dustry and Natural Resources, for. right here at home, we have the basic elements to revive and de- velop an industry in which We are proud to play our part.

1. We have the raw materials- tho waters around us abound with i sh.

1'2. Man-povver for the labor force is willing and easily available.

3. Capital--the Cdevelopment oi past yrar or two has shown that capital is also available.

'tThcsc are the factors of in- dustry and all are within our grasp. These, too, are the reasons why requests for assistance in time of great loss should not too often arise in future. As a group we are a responsible class. capable of un- doi-taking the responsibilities and the risks oi our calling, if given some constructive initial assist- once.

Special Hardships

”The present lobster season, as is very well known to you. has been one of special hardships to the fishermen. During the first two weeks of May very few lobsters were landed because of unfavor- able weather conditions. Recent storms have destroyed or damaged lhousaiids of traps. A few boats have nlso been lost. All this means great loss to fishermen presently laboring under small returns for grrnl. efforts and large investment.

htitiiough in the past oiiI Gov- eriimriits have given assistance that would form a pattern to fol- low in this instance, we want our stand to be well understood-we. fishermen, look upon direct relief as far from ideal. We feel it takes away initiative which is so vital in building a stable industry. in its results it does not lend itself to be constructive. permanent and stable. And so. , we refuse to come before any Government with a bare-fared proposition to the ef- fect that it is the responsibility or the Government to replace every last nr damaged lobster trap or boat on the shore. At the present time. however. since so many fish- ermcn have lost so mucii we feel that some immediate assistance is. Sili'Pil' needed to help fishermen re-I, place fleets of normal size.
