The Companies annbunced on September 22 when they met the Union that the Native Brotherhood had signed at the 7%, 6, and 5% cent prices. This was confirmed by Brotherhood officials.
There was, however, no fishing under the agreement, even though companies expected the Nativt-fleet to be on the grounds.
In the event that fishing had got under way, the Fisheries Association had filed a writ in Supreme Court asking for an injunction against picketing of all plants, docks, floats, moorings, and vessels, and claiming damages and costs.
But no fishermen went out on the grounds.
The Central Strike and Poliey Committee, backed up by mass meetings where secret ballot votes were conducted in all cases, vote'd that they would in no case handle fish declared "hot" by the Union. Position of the tendermen was that they would proceed to the fishing grounds on instruction but they would not handle fish considered "unfair" by striking seiners and gillnetters. Stand of shore-workers, both in British Columbia and the United States, including Alaska was that they would not handle "hot" fish.
As a result, since the strike began (on September 1 for seiners and September 6 for the balance of the fleet) there has been no fishing except that sanctioned by the UFAWU and the Native Brotherhood purely for food purposes.
W. Coast Salmon Report Available
Salmon fishermen, trollers in particular, will be pleased to learn that a limited supply of a report by Ferris Neave of the Pacific Biological Station, titled "Observations on Troll-caught Salmon of the West Coast of Vancouver Island, 1949" is now available.
Dr. J. L. Hart, director of the Pacific Biological Station, notes that the supply on hand is limited so those wishing a copy should not delay in forwarding their request to The Pacific Biological Station, Nanaimo, B.C.
The booklet contains a number of tables giving detailed figures on observations by the author together with considerable other information which should prove of interest and value to fishermen. There is no charge for the report.

He said that the president and business agent and others signing the agreement had constitutional authority to do so, authority delegated to them by the membership.
"What our president and business agent did," he said, "was in accordance with our desires, 'our expressed will, expressed after canvassing the different branches as to its will regarding the price of salmon. Only after that was ascertained did our members sign that agreement."
In reply, Union secretary Homer Stevens expressed regret at some of the harsh terms used by the Union "in the heat of battle" against certain leaders of the Brotherhood. "We withdraw the statement which indicated that your
Fisherman Safe As Boat Burns
Flames at sea almost claimed the life of a Brentwood fisherman September 27 when a flash fire destroyed his 42-foot fish packer half a mile out in choppy waters.
Douglas G. Beaumont, taking the "Molly B" to Salt Spring Island for a load of oysters, was just able to escape into the packer's dinghy when flames flared in the engine room as he was attempting to fix a fuel line.
The vessel was destroyed.
First to reach the burning boat was Fred Ford, who tokok Beaumont aboard his 35-foot cruiser.
"There was nothing anyone could do about the fire," Ford said later "When we got there Beaumont was just sitting in his skiff watching it burn."
Beaumont suffered shock .and his eyebrows were singed but he was otherwise unhurt.

president had sold out the fishermen," he said.
He stressed, however, the necessity of joint action by the Union and Brotherhood in negotiations and pointed out that misunderstandings were bound to arise unless each group consulted the other at critical times such as these.
Stevens told the Brotherhood executive, in regard to declaring fish caught under the Brotherhood agreement "hot," objected to by Dr. Kelly, that the decision was made and at the moment remained unchanged.
"The question of lifting or changing that, of consideration for changing that is just as important to us as it is to you. We recognize that fact and we do not think it should be allowed to happen between two organizations that have worked together, that have bargained together, that one should sign a contract before consulting or giving that organization an opportunity to do something about it. When that happens, then the other organization, whether we as Executive Committee members did so or not immediately, will take the stand that a break has been created, a break in the relationships that have existed for the last 10 years or longer."
He reported that the decision of

shoreworkers and tendermen not to handle "hot" fish was simply this, "that if the striking salmon net fishermen had taken the position to the effect that any fish caught under that contract were hot or unfair to them, then they as part of the same Union were not going to handle those fish. I think that answers the question."

LoNG-llNING from dories H one of the most lonely ond borordous methods of Atlantic off-shore fishing operations. Yet; V despite its discomforts and its perils, there are always men to carry on the great traditions which deep sea fishermen have handed down through the generations. Dories are sturdy Unie craft which are carried to the fishing grounds "nested" on the decks of schooners, or "bonkers", os they are alto cooed. These schooners work far from home ports, often hundreds of nates owoy on such f onous bonks as St. Pierre, Green or the Grand Bank of Newfoundland itself. When the fishing grounds are reached, the dories are lowered away with a crew of two men, who set out os much at two ond a half miles of baited hooks. With this gear they land great quantities of cod, haddock, hake, hoRbet and other species of sea foods.
Dory fishing ic a moo's job catting for great courage ond skid. Yet every year men and ships ore lost through storms or other mrsodrenterti in their never-ending quest for fish. The fishing grounds of the Huithwest Atlantic produce prodigous quantities of many species of sea foods, much of which is token by schooners to help supply the food requirements of our domestic ond world markets.
The Department of Fisheries of Conoda works constantly with fishermen and management to ossuro that only the highest quofity of fish foods reoch consumers. Through the Department of Fisheries, Conoda also co-operoJ«t with other nations in on international treaty to help preserve these great : she tea*, :—
