MEETING — MAY 1918 — 26 — 



North Sea in Denmark and Holland in the years 1916 and 1916 — 17 respectively. 

 As the results of these investigations up till now are not yet sufficient to afford 

 any estimate as to how much the stock of plaice has altered on the Danish and 

 Dutch North Sea coasts since the outbreak of the war, it was decided for the present 

 to continue these investigations, taking into consideration the relation between 

 size and age. 



5. The delegates were particularly interested in the reports of the most recent 

 Herring investigations, as carried out by Hr. Lea in Norway, by Dr. Johansen in 

 Danish waters, and by Dr. Andersson and Dr. Molander in Swedish waters. The 

 delegates earnestly recommend that these investigations be continued, and hope 

 that a closer co-operation may be established in regard to the herring question, 

 so that for instance investigators i) could on request obtain herring samples, and 

 possibly different preparations, from one another.
