Many pressing fishery problems in the Pacific Northwest are of concern to the Western States. Through 

 persistent research by the fishery agencies of these States and the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, these 

 problems are being solved. Important to this effort is the supply of fishery scientists, educated in the colleges 

 and universities throughout the United States. With the Federal-State cooperative attitude and with the 

 the dedicated people in the employ of the various agencies, we are confident that these great fishing resources 

 will always be productive and contribute to the economy and well-being of the people.

 of the older yet still popular methods. 

 The industry relies on technological 

 research to provide the latest informa- 

 tion on processing to insure better 

 quality to the consumer.
