Resolutions.

 the fishery statistics of the principal countries of the world, but distinguishing 

 those countries which adhere to the International Council. 



2. That in future editions of the Bulletin, all descriptive and other printed 

 matter (apart from footnotes) shall be included in an Introductory Chapter, the 

 rest of the volume consisting wholly of Statistical Tables. 



3. That, where space requires to be economised it should no longer be con- 

 sidered necessary to print the names of the several countries in two languages, 

 but that where one language alone is used in any Table, the other language should 

 be employed on the next occasion. 



4. That the first Statistical Table (corresponding to A I and B I of the pre- 

 sent Bulletin) shall give the Gross Quantities and Gross Values of fish landed in 

 each country for which such information can be obtained during the current and 

 the five preceding years. Quantities to be stated in thousands of hundredweights 

 and kilograms, and Values in thousands of pounds sterhng and Marks respectively. 

 The countries to be arranged, more or less as at present, in a conventional, geo- 

 graphical order; those countries which adhere to the International Council being 

 placed at the head of the list.
