lifld Frozen Fish Trade Mounts

ST. JOHN'S, Nfld.. Oct. 25 - It.‘ Pi- Ilevelcpnscnt during the wax" years of a frozen fish trade with the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom has brought to the Newfoundland fishing in- dustry~the backbone of the coun- trys economy—-a diversification previously unknown.

While salted dry cud still ac- counts for the largest part of the fishing industry's revenue. the frozen fish trade is steadily in- creasing.

In 1934 about 296,000 pounds of fresh cod and frozen filLts were exported lLY-‘i sold for $3,000. By 1044 the volume of tlxcs: exports had increassd to 15 1303.090 l>°ilﬂd5 and their value to $2,371,000. In

1045 the exports jumped to 22722;‘

000 pounds and were valued at $6.- 342000. By 1944 the volume was down to 100 016,000 and the value up to $12,218,000. Last year the volume was down to 91,160,000 and the value was up to $12,434 000. The total value of all fish exports in 1934 was $8,287,000, in 1944 it was $18,486,000 and in 1945 $21,859 000.

Almost as soon as the commission government. made up of three Ne\v- foundlanders and three represent- atives of the United Kingdom, took over from the Island's responsible government which lost office be- cause of financial difficulths. changes were made in the fishing industry. The program of modern- ization is still continuing.

One of the first things the com- mission government did was to es~ tablish a I-‘lshzries board to contrcl inspection. grading and exports. Scms body has grown into a agency unmuit‘ - in any country in he u. "id.

lice gives this backzround on the fishing industry during the pro-wan years:

"At the time when the commis- sion assumed office Newivunfllﬂfldi‘ main markets were still located in the Iberian peninsula. in Mediter- ranean countries and in Brazihi i Spain. Portugal. Italy. Greece and Brazil alone accounting for over 80i per cent of the total of export of dried cod.

"The world depression seriously affected Newfouudlands perman- ent markets, and this fact. coupled with the rise cf Norway and Ice- land as highly organized-and in the case of the former subsidized- competitors, tended still furtherto depress the Newfoundland industry.

Further Recessions

"Political epcints in Europe caus- ed yet. further setbacis to the in- dustry. Sanctions agair-zt Italy, and civil war in Spain threatened t‘ eliminate two of the most import- ant European markets, and the value of exports of dried cod to Eur- opean countries fell from $3 400000111 the final year 1934-35 to under Lil.- 520000 in 1937-38. Owing to diffi- culties of exchange the Brazilian market suffered a similar setback.

“The general recession was in_ part counteracted by a steady eX- pansion of trade with the British West Indies and French Caribbean possessions, and export: to thew areas in 1939-40 represented over 40 per cent of the total value of ex- ports of dried cod as compared with 22 per cent in 1934-35.

"Throughout the pre-Iwar period

and indeed up to the end of the financial year 1943-44. exports of dried. salt bulk. pickled ard soft-l cured codfish continued to acount for over two-thirds of the value of all fish exported from Newfound- land; but the years frown 1940 on- wards brougiht about considerable changes, both in overseas market.- and in the types of fish produced." It was about 1940 that the invas- ion of Norway brought increased , demands for Newfoundland fish ' from Spatn- and Portugual. Thezo demands more than made up for the ions of the Greek and Italian markets, About the same time in- creased orders for fresh and frozen flan came irons the United Kirgdotn, United States and Cnnoide. The fresh and frozen fish ex- jorted besides cod included herring. eehntm lobster. halibut. bresme, catfish. haddock, IIIIGKNIL trout. melts. end porch.
