The answer sets forth: That fish dealers are In a mmhln in keep up prices; that they have thrown away great quantities of fish of not generally known food value, simply to Mister up prices for other grades of flsht that there are large quantities of food fish available In the Pacific ocean, which can be distributed to con sumers at a very reasonable cost through the medium of the municipal .market; that reductions In food prices tend to prevent strikes over living con ditions; that the city market has In creased the consumption of fish, there- ' by aiding the government's meat con servation policy.
