some of the fish brought 7 cents ; then
6 cents was the ruling price, and finally
5 cents was paid. The average price
was about 6 cents, so the canners paid
out in those 11 days slightly over $475,
000 for raw material. It is estimated
that, the freezing plants bought about
$300,000 worth of fish, though there was
no way to arrive at any definite figures
concerning the business of those con
cerns, information as to the amount of
fish handled being withheld. Twelve
