THE BUOY LINE
It seems that every time you
turn around, there’s another
fishery meeting going on about
something. It’s not that I mind;
fact is, I think it’s a pretty good
thing, because as every fisher
man and packer knows, when
a lot of sincere people get all
worked up and mad — about
something, and they begin pull
ing together, something is going
to come loose.
We see this in the recent se
ries of meetings on the “Halibut
Crisis.” Something is beginning
to happen. The Congressional
Hearings scheduled next month
in Seattle and in Alaska will be
a good start.
I personally think, however,
the right time to have fought
this war was when the Japs and
Russians first moved on OUR
continental shelf—ten years ago.
It seems to me that once we let
the bars down, we should have
expected them to begin fishing
halibut sooner or later.
On the ether hand, we’re not
exactly barefoot. At Pan-Alaska,
being in the crab business, we
have been facing subsidized for
eign competition for years. For
us, it’s a way of life. We think
we can whip this competition
any way you want to figure it.
Man for man, boat for boat, and
using only pots while they use
tangle-gear and drags, we think
we’re out-fishing them. More
than that, by backing up our
fishermen with the Mercator
and the Alaska Trader in the
Aleutians and the Reefer II in
Kodiak, and getting full advan
tage of the superior selective
fishing you get from crabpots,
and finally by processing these
extra quality crab to American
standards, we have an unbeat
able combination!
So instead of wringing our
hands and breaking out in a cold
sweat, I think part of the answer
is to get good and mad—and go
right to the mat with these fel
lows. When we all do that_and
I know we can—we’ll soon see
who shows who. where the bear
hit the buckwheat!
With best regards,
Bill Ritter
