SOON DISAPPEAR

The so-called: “Japanese » sea-
weed” which has caused -so.much
annoyance to fishermen and boat
owners: is not likely to be a per-
manent annoyance’ in |. coastal.
waters. ° According’ to Depaitment
of Fisheries: officials. the growth

of the.weed-occurs in: ecycles and.
1t years ago a similar outbreak.
was noted, at that time growth
was heavier than this year in some -
sections, notably in the Powell
River district..

The present. peak- is estimated
to be the’ highest of the cycle and
watermen may look to a gradual
decline in the annoyance.

Counter measures against the
growth are difficult, officials
state, but the situation is being
closely watched,
