cent in October, twenty-five per cent in November, and thirty per 

 cent in December. All tonnage not received during the month for 

 which it was allotted could be accumulated and taken any time up to 

 the close of the season February 15. 



No additional grants to receive sardines under permit were made 

 after the season opened. 



Permits were issued for 402,375 tons, but only 303,426 tons were 

 received, leaving an unused permit tonnage of 99,005 tons. By referring 

 to the tables following, it will be noted that most of the canceled permit 

 tonnage was in the San Pedro and San Diego districts, where there 

 was a scarcity of sardines, and a great demand for sardines for canning 

 purposes. The oil production in southern California was very low and 

 only such fish as were unfit for canning were used by a reduction 

 process. 



This report does not include sardines taken for fresh fish markets, 

 bait, or quarter oil pack. 



No floating plants were operated oif the California coast during 

 the season.
