SURPLUS OF FROZEN
& MILD CURED FISH
At the present time there exists
a very considerable surplus of
frozen and mild cured fish much
in excess of the capacity of the
market to absorb and running in
to a good many millions of pou
nds. A large part of the surplus
consists of fish caught lin the At
lantic, some taken from the Great
Lakes, and some embraces the
Scotch cured herring pack pro
duced in Alaska in 1936. The
Scotch cured herring in storage
at this time amounts to something
more than 18 million pounds.
Recently Congress passed and
the President approved an Act
to authorize the purchase and
distribution of surplus fish, and
during the past week the b it
making an appropriation for the
purpose came up for considera
| tion in the House. The total au
thorization as limited at $2,000,
000, but the Appropriations Com
mittee of the House recommend
ed an appropriation at this time
,of only $1,00,000. Delegate Dtan- j
ond, with others interested in the
subject, appeared before the com
mittee and urged that the full
amount of $2,000,000 be appropri
v
ated, n order to take care of the
surplus n an adequate manner.
On the following day during
the debate on the bill the Dele
gate spoke on the floor of the
House and again urged the larger
appropriation. However, other
members who were equally inter
ested thought it best to accept an
appropriation for $1,000,000 for
the present, making the reserva
tion thait application would be
made for the additional $1,00,
000 if need tihereoif were disclos
ed after the expenditure of the
first mi lion. So the bill calling
for an appropriation of $1,000,000
passed the House on March 24th
without a roll call and without
any serious objection. It is ex
pected to pass the Senate at an
early date.
