The Convention also yoted that A. F. of lL. members should not par- ticipate in the games. With the school season recently opening, the Students League of Canada has against come forward with its official organ, “Lhe Stu- dent.”’ The necessity of a students’ move- ment to fight against increased school fees, against the introduction of war and fascist propaganda into the schools, becomes very apparent at this time.

Vancouver Students receive con- siderable praise by the editors of the magazine for the splendid show of solidarity that they exhibited on May ist. when they participated in the parade against relief camps. is The literary architecture of the magazine is very pleasing to the reader. The Students’ League of Canada should be commended upon for this fine publication which is the best 5c worth that money can buy. Many striking cartoons fill out this well balanced monthly publica- tion. “The Student” without a doubt will be a powerful factor towards the building of a stron=e movement to protect the interests of the uni- versity and high school students throughout Canada.

M. Under the Natural Products Mar- keting Act a scheme has been drawn. up to cover the sale if halibut by a marketing board at Prince Rupert. The election of this board, which is to consist of five members, is to he controlled jointly by The Deep Sea Fishermen’s Union, Canadian Hali- but Vessels Owners’ Association and the United Fishermen’s Union of 13.€. also Fishing Vessels Owners’ | Association of Vancouver, B.C. The fish barons are endeavoring onee more to mislead the general public by maknge it appear that the fishermen are being well represent- ed by the abowe mentioned associa- tion and unions, whereas the truth of the situation lies in that these unions are owned and controlled by the large fish monopolies and they are not representative bodies of the fishermen. Under these circum- stances the very least that the fish- ermen can expect is a raw deal. We would remind the fishermen that there is at the present time a real effort being put forth to pro- vide some white collar jobs on this board, and we can only believe that these jobs will be found at the ex- pense of the fishermen and the con- sumer of fish. The fish barons will see to it that this board will be made up of men who in the past have proven them- selves to be friends of the boss packers and betrayers of the work- ing Class. The halibut fishermen have put up a valiant struggle in the past to up- hold the price of halibut. The Mar- keting Board is not a pipe dream to the bosses. If it is allowed to func- tion without protest it will further enslave both the fishermen and the poverty-stricken consumer. We have reason to believe that if it has not already been done a sim- ilar scheme will be drawn up to en- esulf the entire salmon fishing indus- feet the try. If this scheme is put into ef- HALIBUT FISHING Salmon fishermen may be assured that the monopolists will see to it that you will never be fairly represented on any marketing board. The canners are classed as the producers and the far reaching ef- fects of the tolls and levies will so limit the sales of salmon that the smaller independent concerns will find their pack on their hands and will be unable to dispose of it, so that eventually they will be forced to close their doors, leaving the fish- ermen entirely at the unwholesome discretion of the big sharks. Consumers Are Hit By Marketine Boards. The householder and consumer have as much at stake as have the fishermen themselves. ©On several occasions fishermen have been as- founded at the unreasonably high prices quoted the consumer on the fresh fish retail markets in Wan- couver. On Saturday, October 12, one of the large retail fish markets on Granville Street had on display a large cohoe salmon marked, “Spring Salmon, 15c 1b.” Top prices being paid fishermen at that time for cohoe salmon was Ge per Ib. dressed. The fishermen realize full well that the consumer of fish is being victimized owing to his or her lim- ited knowledge of the varieties of Salmon, and the prices beings paid the fishermen. The above instance is the direct result of the ability of the fish barons to misrepresent both the quality and variety of all kinds of fish. The Fishermen’s and Cannery Workers' Industrial Union’ takes a definite Stand opposing the juggling by the fish barons, both on the fresh fish market and also to the efforts of the bosses to cut the prices on the fishing grounds. We have learned through bitter exper ience that we must expose every at- tempt of the monopolists to make Poor Run Of Cohoes At Gibson’s Dog Salmon Scarce at Roberts Creek By Worker Correspondent. GIBSONS LANDING, Qect. 21. Wery few good catches of cohoes have been reported here and the season is now at an end. False re- ports reached Squamish about good eatches being made from this area and several boats came here from Squamish where good catches were reported. “Local trollers did fairly well until gillnetters started fishing, then prices for trolled fish dropped to 2illmet prices. The usual fair run of do= salmon has failed to show up yet and it is yery doubtful if a run will come this season. Roberts’ Creek ‘‘dogs’’ are scarce, and during this rainy weather only one-third of the usual number of dog salmon can be seen making their way up the creek. Government Ruling Tmposes* Hardship. Minister of Fisheries Motherwell has ruled that fishermen must “Stop fish- ing with sockeye webs,” and this imposes a hardship on many fisher- men who cannot afford to purchase ecohoe webs.
