Fishermen Discuss Pooling and Federation Sales Policy
Newfoundland fishing leaders debate pooling fish through the Federation for sale of 14 000 quintals at Cocke Harbor QI ponares. Max Jane proposes centralised buyers to maximize prices while critics argue price variation and handling costs undermine the pool. Lane argues exporters need not pay 70 cents per quintal in commissions if fishermen pool, noting risks for small outport merchants and seasonal credit practices.

New Operation for Ulcers Aims to Spare Stomach Valve
A new ulcer operation removes about 75 percent of the stomach while leaving the valve and its nerve intact. The method, described at the American College of Surgeons meeting, aims to cure ulcers by leaving the stomach to heal and prevent rapid emptying that can cause weakness and weight loss. Early animal and human results show promise but require more time to judge effectiveness.
