The permits issued for tlie San Kiancisco and Monterey districts

 five months of the season, and in southci-n (Jalifornia it was aMoftcd 

 on the basis of 25 per cent for each month of the first four months of

 fornia and March 1st in southern California. 



In February a recommendation was made by a subcommittee of 

 the National Defense Committee that the sardine season be extended 

 30 days. This re])ort was adoj)ted by the commission and referred to 

 the Governor who accepted the report and directed that it be adopted 

 as a necessary measure of State and National defense to enable the 

 Federal Government to be supplied with the sea food reriuirements of 

 the Army and Navy of the United States. In the San Francisco 

 district no additional sardine fishing was done after the regular 

 closing, but in Monterey and southern California sardine fishing con- 

 tinued into March. This report does not include sardines taken for 

 fresh fish markets, bait or quarter oil pack.
