Meeting At

-Mr. Gordon O'Brien. Ot- tniia. secretary-manager of the Fisheries Council of Canada was the guest speaker at the regular qumer-annual meeting ofthe p, 5. 1. Fisheries Federation held at Souris Saturday-

lir. O'Brien in his remarks. dealt with the Canada-wide or-

nization statln that seventeen member assoclat one across Can- ada were represented in the IL-IIETIES council. He emphasized me close liaison work between the council at Ottawa and the Federal Department of Fisheries. ..id'he felt that this close assoc- iation worked to the in t ' bene- fit of the two interested panties. iii O'Brien went on to explain the new sales promotion program min-cting fishery products. and pointed out to the members the considerable competition which had arisen during the past sev- mi years with the onsequent drop in fish consumption by the buying public of Canada. He was of 'lie opinion that the fishery Industry must meet this com- petition by a concentrated and continued program of publicity in order to bring home to poten- tial customers the advantage of ii-ing fish products. The program. he stated. should Include publi- i'lil' re fresh frozen fish. canned products. salt fists. etc. and should appear in trade maga- iiiios. popular home magazines. flf'll.s'D8p8l'. radio and television. This program would be carried on through a nation-wide basis. and might be supplemented by pnhllcity undertaken by the local associations. He was assured that this was the only proper means of meeting present competition. and felt that it was the most im- portant way to safeguard the fu- titre of the Industry and the live- lihood of the fisherman. packer and dealer.

Mr. O'Brien continued his re- narks by stating that the coun- .-il and the trade had been sub- iot-ted to some criticism for not making effective use of the mech- snlcal refrigeration box con- structed by the C. N. R. for the specific use of small lot drip- nirnfs. Mr. O'Brien said that al- though the cane): box ws s good idea 'and did keep feel: frozen fish in good condition, nonetheless the trade was heal- tiint to use it since it would in- volve a considerable change in the set-up of paclcing plants. and the present costs of distribution ii-nnld not warrant such a con- inierable chnge over in order to use the canex box. He further pointed out that the canes: box did not fit in with the present distribution system. and that it was probably ahead of its time. but Cftlildt conceivably find its proper place in the scheme di-ti-ihutlon in the future.

of the president. Mr. S. H. Bur- hoe, The minutes of the last an- nual meeting and the correspon- dence were read the secre- tary. Mr. Walthen audet. Busi- ness arising from the corres- pondence lncluded a ” that the Department of-Fisheries con- duct experiments to determine whether or not the lobster shell shrinks during cooking. Discuss- ion also centered on the removal or non-removal of paper lining in canned chicken haddfe. It was pointed out that considerable re- search would be required to de- velop s suitable can, and it was requested that such research should be carried on by the de- partsnent.

Regarding the subject of lob- ster cocktail. Mr. Bu!-hoe pointed out that the regulations called for over 50 percent of lobster in the canned . ' t. He felt that this should be by drained weight so that the quantity of lobster in the content would not make the cost of the product prohibitive. No definite decision. however. was reached.

Mr. Gaudet informed the meet- ing that loans to fishermen. somewhat similar to the farm improvement loan. would be made available to fishermen -through the chartered banks. and that it had also been recom- mended that the same consider- ations be granted to credit unions to make loans to fishermen.

Mr. Gaudet also stated that the Federal Government would re- hate to fishermen 50 percent of the cost of salt used in process- ing salt fish. He also read cor- respondence regarding tariff con- cessions.

The meeting then adjourned and was continued following a delicious lobster supper served by the Ladles' Auxiliary of the Souris Hospital.

It was moved that the P. E. 1. Fisheries Federation would join in the sales promotion program and that ways and means would be considered to raise funds to meet their allotted share of the cost.

Mr. P. A. Murnaghan. deputy minister of industry and Natural Resources. stated that he was prepared to request the Provin- cial Government to grant monies to the Fisheries Federation to be used to promote membership through radio panels. meetings. publicity. etc. This program. he stated. should also Include the P.

WELCOME!) TO SOUTH!

Mayor Bruce Stewart welcom- ed the members of the Fisheries Federation to the town of Souris. and expressed thanks to the de- partment which has been respon- -sible for transforming Soin-is from a small boat fishing centre -to a dragger fleet fishing port. 'Mr. Stewart stated that the fu- ture of Souris was intlmatelyi connecied with the future of the fishing industry and that inas- lmudi as the gulf fishing had lim- -itlesl possibilities. then a no- -rlim outlook was in store for the future of the town of Souris.

Discusses

"Much has been done in recent. years. and much is being attempt- ed by leaders of the fishing in- dustry to prove the quality of fish market . and in this you have played an important part.

"Fresh fillets. and dressed fish in particular. are being given ex- tra attention from the time caught until it is eaten. and top scien- tists and technicians are concen- trating on the problem.

"While there has been a general improvement. handling. especial- ly during distribution. leaves much to be desired.

"A chart showing how quality deteriorates was prepared last year by the Province of Quebec. and shows that fish held at water Ice temperatures from the time it is caught rleteriorales so rapidly that in eight days it has lost all its fresh flavour.

"We have given a very con- siderable amount of thought to the transportation of all food products. and are satisfied that l.n carload movement. any perish-

bers who spoke were Mrs. Laugh- tin. Sherbrooke. and Mrs. M. N McGowan, Kllmuir.

able commodity can be protected to almost any destination on the continent. This is a bulk move ment. It also seemed to us that the small producer. whose busi- ness did not warrant carload shipments. and whose business did not provide for an economical load for a railway car. was be- ing overlooked. With that thought in mind. our Research Branch de- veloped a refrigerated container which. for want of a better name. we have since called a "Canex" container. the word "Canex" be- ing an abbreviation of.Canadlan National Express. which depart- ment is presently responsible for the distribution.

"This container is designed to transport 160 net pounds of fresh fillets, plant chilled to 29 degrees. and hold them at that tempera- ture in ambient summer temper- aiures for up to 100 hours. AVAILABLE ON CALL

"It has been the practice. mostly in the United states. al- though there has been a world iritereat. to provide a slightly different container and to sell or rent it to the trade. This is not the case with the "Cauex" con- tainer, which is patented in our own name and is wholly owned by this railway. it is available oil call wherever it is needed and may be transported within Can- ada to any railway point. giving the assurance that fish remove:l from it at the end of 100 hours will be equally as good as when packed. As a demonstration of this, we have experimented with the handling of quality fish. plant ohilled and transported at 29 de- grees. on four of our name trains. and out of 210 people answering a questionnaire. 189. or 907m. said that there was an improvement in t-he taste of fish served.
