lieve everything will come out
all right for Phoenix and the
league."
He said he though Phoenix
was "one of the coming cities
of the nation."

Crab Fishermen
Locked in Dispute
By UNITED PRESS
Crab fishing fleets from
Crescent City, Calif., to Grays
Harbor, Wash., were tied up
Monday in . a price dispute
with packers.
The fishermen were asking
10 cents a pound for their
catches. The packers have of
fered eight cents, the price
paid for last year's near-rec
ord catch.
Some 70 fishermen from
most Northwest ports met in
Newport, Ore., Sunday and
agreed they would hold, fast
in their demand.
One Newport fisherman
said that with the huge catch
last year he "could make
out" with the eight-cent price
but the rising costs of operat
ing and the slackening catch
this season makes the 10-cent
figure necessary.
Fishermen at Eureka, Calif,
recently got the 10-cent price.
