International cooperative agree
ments for taking the fish pro
ducts of the Pacific ocean, between
the United States, Canada and
America for world consumption, is
an idea advanced by Dr. Kokichi
Oshima, professor of the school
of fishery, Hokkado university,
Sapporo, Japan, who was in Ket
chikan studying fishing and fish
ing methods, says the Chronicle.
The eminent Japanese frankly
gave his opinions on the “dan
ger points” of the Pacific, the pos
sibilities of war between Japan
and America, the world economic
conditions.
He said the greatest source of
irritation in Japan against Amer
ica comes from the restrictions
against Japanese citizens.
“For instance,” he said, “Japan
ese residents in America must
marry. They are not allowed to
bring a bride or any close rela
tives from Japan. We realize that
the United States has been tight
ening up its immigration laws,
but the exclusion act remains
against Japan. Our country has
modeled itself after the American
plan. We are striving to raise
the standard of wages and living
and we believe that experience
[from Japanese residents living in
[America will show that they are
[comparable to those admitted un
der the quota plan. We have
an over-crowded* population and
in Alaska and America are num
erous places in which Japanese
residents could assist development
of resources and become an asset
instead of a liability. It is not
part of the plan of Japanese to
[seek to lower the living standard
of American living.”
Referring to economic condi
tions between Japan and the
United States, he said there was
no reason why these should be
cause for trouble. He pointed
out that Japan now imports oys
ters, tuna and other fish and
products from America and is a
good customer, and that the Unit
ed States is still a better custo
mer for Japan, the largest item
of export from there being silk.
By mutual understanding he be
lieved the market could be ex
panded in both directions.
He said the salmon fisheries
conducted by the Japanese from
Russian concessions did not affect
the American market, since there
was a duty imposed. He said
England was the best market for
Japanese put up salmon.
You do not need any foreign
market for your salmon,” said Dr.
Oshima. “When your domestic
market is fully taken care of and
developed, it will consume all the
salmon you can put up.”
Dr. Oshima said the same was
true of halibut. He said that the!
halibut grounds economically pos
sible for exploitation by the Jap
anese were limited. He said the
greatest fishing industry by the
Japanese for the American market
was the crab industry. He said
that by the use of floating can
neries and a mutual international
agreement Japanese experts could

be hired by American firms to
expand the crab fishing grounds
of the North Pacific close to the
Alaskan shores. He believes that
in- other lines of fishing, mutual
understadings and agreements
would keep up the standard of
living and of wages and allow the
Pacific to be fished to the point |
of necessary conservation and j
create thriving communities and
also furnish the world markets I
with a good grade of food.

duction of silver, 200,000,000 ounces, |
