Economic Importance Of’ Dragger Fishing Stressed
The dragger fleet and the fishing plants at Souris have brought $620,000 to the economy of Eastern Kings County, W11. liam Acorn (Lib-lst Kings) said yesterday in the Legislature.
The landed value of the 1957 catch to the dragger fishermen was $266,868_ The wages paid to help in the two plants amounted to $205,000 and. the fishermen drew an estimated $150,000 in unemployment in- surance, the member from _Souris said_ This, he explained, IS in addition to the returns from the inshore catch.
“This.” he said, “is a con- crete example of the work our government is doing to keep Island people at home and em.- ployed.” This is a return in 9116 year for a relatively small investment by the government
the province in draggers and plants. And the invest- ment consists of .loans that are being repaid.‘
He congratulated his col- league on promoting the idea 0* 3 _deep sea dragger fleet in the fl1‘S~t Place —— that was in 1950—and thanked the govern- ment. for listening to requests by himself and Mr_ St, John to enlarge the dlraugger pro. gram and build the two fish plants at Souris.
MARKETS
stressing the necessity of good markets for the catch he emphasized the utmost need of maintaining the American mar- ket and noted the attempts’ made by American fishing in- terests
‘ to. get an increased tariff against Canadian fish products.
He ,recalled that in 1930 un- der the Bennett administration

a tariff of 21/2 cents per pound was placed on Canadian fish. In November of 1938 Canada and the; United States signed a bi-lateral agreement, ive January 1939, which reduc-
ed the tariff to 1 and 7/3 cents per lb. on an annual quota of 15,000,000 lbs. or 15 percent of the American average con- sumption over the three pre- cedinlgs years, whichever was
the greatest, i
In 1948 the arrangement was bound at Gatt against any in- crease_ However an escape clause provided that imports could not damage the domes- tic industry.
Some time later‘ an Ameri- can commission was urged by U.S, fishing interests to revise duties up-wards under the es- cape clause‘ agreement, from 1 and 7/3 cents per lb to 2_81 cents on the quota and from 21/2 cents for over quota im- ports to 3 and % cents per

In his reference to trade he said that the Bennett Govern- ment of the 1930's blasted the markets alright and in his opinion the Diefenbaker Govern- ment was surely following the same pattern. He also dealt with the family allowance and old age pension.
