Mr. Speaker. the jobs of American citizens who historically have found employment in Alaska fish canneries are being jeopardized due to Alaskas Governor Egan having invited the Japanese fishing industry to intervene in a dispute over prices between American cannery operators and Alaskan fishermen. I have protested to the Secretary of Labor the Japanese entering our waters and buying raw fish and the Issuance of work permits to foreign nationals. because American labor is available to process fish. Thus far. I am informed. the Department of Labor is studying the matter. but if no ruling against the Japanese is made. a dangerous precedent will have been set.
