BRITISH COLUMBIA FISHERY
COMMISSIONER BABCOCK
FESSI'HSTIC
j VICTORIA, Auk. 27. UP)—To find
! salmon spawning on the upper reach
fi
jes of. Fraser river, onto the greatest
j salmon breeding waters in the world
I is like “hunting for a needle in n
haystack,” says the annual report or
the Provincial Fisheries Department.
Deputy Commissioner John P. Bab
cock says that during the fast fishing
season “saw and heard fewer sockeye
spawning areas in the Fraser river
basin, above Plell's Cate Canyon in
August and September, than in anv
preceding 24 years of his experience,”
adding there can be no considerable
run of sockeye four years hence from
the sockeye which spawned on the
upper lakes of the Fraser basin las*
year.
He reported tlra halibut situation
in northern B. C. likewise is pessi
mistic and the necessity of a mea-sure
to conserve the halibut fisheries was
stressed. The combined pack of
sockeye in Provincial, Washington
! waters of the Fraser system last
I year totaled 15S.9S7 cases, the largest
I since 1917 or 100 percent greater
j than four years ago.
