< Front Our Oii'ii Reporter) GREYMOUTH. April 9. The West Coast Development Council will ask the Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries (Mr Moyle) to consider the creation of a fish marketing board, with or without power of acquisition, to maintain a floor price for fish. The suggestion came at a 1 meeting of the council this week from Mr T. E. Wallis.

Beadle had earlier rut lined to the council the problems of the West Coast Ishing industry with regard o markedly reduced prices or fish caught in relation to mbstantial increases in fuel; md other costs of operation.!
