£91011. Oct. M - (OP) — Revolutionary changes in the Am- erican fishing industry to boost fish production during the cur- rent food shortage have been pro- posed to the National Citizens Food Committee by the Atlantic Hshermenb Union (AIHLJ, it was learned here tonight. _

The Union suggestion would also contain a promise from the De- partment of Justice not to pros- ecute, under anti-trust laws, un- ions and dealers entering into ar- rangements for price stabilization.

This suggestion was included although Attorney General Clark has already indicated that some types of co-operative arrange- ments to help overcome the food crisis may not be subjected to sucii prosecution.

The five-point Union plan would include: '

1. A national advertising campaign to promote the sale of fish, financed by the Major distributors.

2. Adoption of co-operaiive arrangements for the stabiliza- tion of prices at. the produc- tion icvcl.

3. Ordeilv marketing through co-opcrativc agencies compar- able to those operating iii other industries.

4. Government support. to ‘keep prices at. a set lcvcl and prevent a rapid rise in price.

5. A joint plan for the use of the seas with Canada and , European countries to con- serve North American fishing grounds. _ Although indicating that fish-

ermen should get more for their catch, the Union said consumers could actually buy their fish at a reduced price. Retailers would be able to sell more ‘fish because of the intensive; advertising cam--

‘Ppeigit, they sold. ,and therefore

could afford to lower prices.

Agreement with other countries for use of the North Atlantic fish- ing grounds would affect Germ- any, Russia and other nations now building trawler fleets for opera- tions in these waters.

The Union said it wanted rules set up now to avoid future trouble between fleets of different na- tions and to save the fishing baniil from further depletion.
