Abstract
ACCORDING to the annual report of the Fishery Jr\. Board for Scotland, both the white-fish and herring fishing branches of the Scottish fishing industry gave cause for anxiety during 1933, and, while the prospects of the former afterwards improved, those of the latter steadily deteriorated. The fishing industry as a whole continued to suffer from the effects of the world-wide economic depression, and the herring industry has proved specially vulnerable, owing to the preponderating degree to which it is dependent on overseas markets.
