E. I. Fisheries Federation held at the Queen Hotel. The president. Mr. J. E. Burden presided.

The executive of the Island Fed- eration was appointed as a com- mittee to study the possibility of erecting such plants which would provide facilities for smoking. dry- ing. freezlng and storing fish in addition to the facilities now avail- able for the industry. Additional members may be added to the committee if advisable. ""'

The proposal. first mooted by Mr. Eugene German. chairman of the Fishermen’: Loan Board. sug- gested that the finances for the scheme be partly raised from the organization of small plants on the Island.
