Fishery Industry Slumps Amid War Time Trade Decline
Washington reports a sharp slump in the fishery industry as wartime campaigns ease. Fishermen face reduced demand, higher labor and material costs, and curtailed exports. Production in the first ten months of 1920 fell by about 16 million pounds value around $6,000,000 versus 1919 with New England trawlers idle. Alaska salmon output also dropped about 2.5 million cases from 1947 figures, as cheaper grades flood markets. Government aid is limited but sought to stabilize the sector for small, independent fishermen facing hardship.
