Emergency Situation

The surplus is in the hands of the packers who have paid the fish- ermen five and one quarter cents a pound. "It is an emergency and the fishermen have been misled," he said in conclusion.

Mr. l... Johnston, Murray Hur- bour, suggested that the Govern- ment be asked to pay the fisiieirnen $18. a case for the whole of this year's pack which they had pro- mised to do.

Mr. Rilsscl Champion, Kcnsing- ‘on, claimed that Dr. E. Hess, the Qulder for the Government, did llol know how to grade lobsters. He said that this grader had also made the statement tlint the pack- ers in this province coilld not cx- pect to get a Grade A lobster undcr tile conditions which exist. llc promised he would re-grnde the pack, the speaker said. There are 4,000 cases ln the Goverltlilellt store house at present, he added.

Mr. J. J. Coiidon. Georgetown, said "the Government should keep out of the lobster bllsinc ‘ H: maintained that the snlcs x on lobsters, which amounts to s .50 n case, is an unreasonable and fool- ish tax. It means that the Govern- ment is taxing something it is try- ing lo sell, he said.

Resolution The following resolution was passed:

Resolved that the delegates ask the Government to pay a minimum of $18.00 a case for all good mer- chantable lobsters packed in the 1940 packing season now in the hands of the packers or of lobster controller or to be packed this season of 1940.

Further resolved that the present system of Government assistance and grading be discontinued at. lhc close of the 1940 int-king season and in place of this scheme a bon- us of $4.00 be paid lo liccilsed packers who produce satisfactory evidence regarding the quality of goods packed and price paid to fishermen.

The committee be instruced to take up the matter of sales fax which is now working to tlicdctri- merit of the fislielvileti as it cur- tails the sale of lobsters for Cilll- ndian consumption. Moved by l). l'.. MacDonald and seconded by Wil- liam Johnstoiie.
