SEINERS - ARE BLAMED Trollers Also Causing Curtailment or Production by Klllng Young Pish, Is Assertion. , The salmon industry, the .third greatest industry in the state, can not long" survive If the purse seiners and trollers are allowed" to operate at the mouth of the Columbia river, declared' Carl Shoemaker, secretary of the state fish commission, who has just returned from an investi gation at Astoria. "The salmon industry ia in a death grapple with the purse seiners and trollers." he said yesterday. The great evil, Mr. Shoemaker ex plained. Is the killing of the young, immature salmon, about 2 years old, which means the destruction of 3000 to 4000 eggs which would have been produced later. "It is like killing the goose- that lays the golden egg," he said. "It is like destroying seed potatoes. The trouble is that the fishermen io not really realize what they are doing." Immature Salmon Perish. Through the very nature of the methods of the patch, several tons of immature salmon perish daily.- When the purse seiners drag their huge nets on the bottom of. the ocean, they scoop up-everything, the young sal mon In along with the jellyfish, clams, starfish, crabs, sea perch and every variety of ocean aquatic life. Twenty to 30 per cent of every haul 1 im mature salmon. -Anything uhder 20 inches is thrown overboard, spiked with a hook, and thus killed. Mr. Shoemaker estimated that the purse seiners take one ton of fish in a day's haul, making the total from the 180 boats 160 tons daily as a minimum. The trollers, he claims, do not do so much -harm- because,- they do not reach as many young 1 'salmon, but their hooks do .entice many to de struction. The immature fish tire thrown off into the water with a jerk of the hook, dead. Six hundred trollers are operating six to twelve lines each, with one or two fishhooks on each line. . DeMtruction Declared Great. "The destruction is so great that the tremendous loss cannot be esti mated," said Mr. Shoemaker. "The killing of the immature salmon means a direct loss in the return of two or three years hence, as well as in the destruction of the individual fish." Three remedies for the present situ ation are suggested by Mr. Shoe maker. The first is an agreement on the part of the canneries that they will not buy fish which have been taken by purse seiners or trollers. Mr. Shoemaker considered this a remote remedy, which probably could not be adopted. r Many of the managers -of canneries realize the serious condi tion he said, but there are some who would take the salmon as long as it is legal to do so. even though they realize that it is only a question of time until the industry will diminish if such practices are continued. Another Remedy SuggeMted. The second and best solution, Mr. Shoemaker declared, is for Oregon and Washington to adopt similar legislation prohibiting the buying, selling, packing or otherwise preserv ing these fish taken by purse seiners or trollers. Oregon's present law,' prohibiting tho sale or having in pus session of any salmon taken beyond the three mile limit in the closed sea son, August 25 to September 10, does not prevent the fishermen taking their haul to Washington shore to selL Thus they evade the letter of the Oregon law. - Such legislation could not come up until the next session of the legisla ture. The third remedy would be an in ternational agreement between the United States and Cadana defining the feeding beds of migratory fish, such as salmon and sturgeon, and limiting or defining the ; methods which may be used In their capture. This agreement would be like the migratory bird treaty, Mr. Shoemaker explained. Trouble Ia Only Recent. The trouble with the purse seiners and trollers did not start until last year, Mr. Shoemaker stated, when they began to operate extensively. Before that time few had come to Oregon shores. The majority of these fishermen are Austrians, who brought their boats from Puget sound after they had reduced the industry there by about half, according to Mr. Shoe maker. "Last season the purse seiners got a .temporary restraining order in Clatsop county which kept me from enforcing the law for the closed season from August 25 to September 10," he said. "After the season had reopened and it was lawful to use their methods, the order was dis solved. The case is now pending in the supreme court. "The purse seiners went to Salem Wednesday to ak another temporary restraining, order during tho closed season, but Judge Burnett refused to grant the order, claiming that he had no jurisdiction. The attorneys were given until August 21 to present their briefs to show why the supreme court had the right to issue tempo rary restraining order during the closed season. Campaign Ia Promised. "I will use every power at my com mand to keep the fishermen from bringing their catch to the Oregon shores during this closed season if I am not restrained by the court from doing so. . Their gear will be confis cated and offenders baled into court and punished." Mr. Shoemaker anticipates trouble between the river fishermen and the Purse seiners and trollers it the lat ter are allowed to operate, because, he said, that the rank and file of the Spot Cash No Red Tape All sizes. of Diamonds bought. Business confidential. JOS. LLNZ 602 Spalding Bldg. Hours 1 to 6 P. M. river fishermen do not understand the fine distinctions of the law. He ex pects some such fishermen's war as there is in California between the Japanese and American fishermen. Income Put at $10,000,000. "The salmon industry brings in about 1U,U00,000 a year from the Columbia river alone." declared Mr. Shoemaker. "It is money which re mains in the state for the develop ment of our resources. Of this money 65 per cent goes to the men who handle the nets. The industry is a vital one to the state. Ten thousand people are engaged in it directly and 26.000 derive a portion of their live lihood from allied industries." Professor E. Victor Smith of the University of "Washington accompa nied Mr. Shoemaker on his trip. He is making a-personal investigation for the fishina; . department of the state of Washington.
