George W. McLeod, manager of the Portland Packing Conlpziiiy, Chiirlottctowil, testified that of a lot of 500 cases of canned lobsters purchased from the Tignish area in 1936. he was suspicious that about 350 cases had been illegally canned as they had been received at the company warehouse hcrc without tile iicccssrlry permit for the transportation of lobsters, while Alfred B. Fisher, vice-presi- dent of Windsor-Fisher Limited said he was unable to estimate how long illegal fishing and canning had been carried on in this prov- ince because he “was only about 50 years of age" and J..i.

OTTAWA. M ri r c h 10 - ((.‘l’)-Some 200,(lt)0 square miles of fishing grounds, an area more than three times as great as all the cultivated land in Canada, are avail- ble to fishermen of the Mill-itinle Provinces. V. J. l’otticr (Lib. Shelburne-Yiib mouth-Clare) told the House of Commons today. The Mziritime Province; had not held their own ii world fish production in rc. cent years which accounted in part for the distress now prevailing in the fishing in- dustry, he said. Other countries were lend- ing assistance to the fishing industry either directly or indirectly but there was nl. assistance for the Canadian fishermen. . Confusion as to tlic responsibil- ities of the federal and provincial governments lofi. the nsheririen's difficulties unattended to, siiid Mr. Pottier. The Dominion had pass- ed the obligation on to the prov- inces :ind tile provinces had pass- ed it back to the Dominion. Mr. Pottier submitted, howevui the rcsponsibiiity rested with th Dominion. The fisheries question had become a national emergency and should bc dealt with by tho Fcdcml Govcriiiilciit.. The King Government had gona al. long way to help out the west- tem farmers in a period of drought. He cited the Wheat Board Act. fixed price for wheat-, loans. relief from debt and the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Act. Mr. Pottier said he had no crit- icism of this but thought the same generous policy should be applied to the fisliing industry which was suffering from domestic and world conditions similar to those which had created a crisis in Western Canada. The one gesture made towards the fishing industry was the pass- ing of ir Flsrerrnziifs Loan Act in 1035 find so far not a single loan had been made under it. That. Ac! should be amended to permit of loans on the security of fishing equipment as well as on the sec- urity of houses and real estate. » Aka AovANfAoa or Pm 0\°PoR‘\'ui~i\ I I in °,§l (A ' ~:.°J,-_. \\__”f_§ ,_ ./_,_J_,/ .
