. Commercial fisheries review. Fisheries; Fish trade. November 1952 COMMERCIAL FISHERIES REVIEW SCAP regulations, forcing the motherships and their catcher boats out into more distant and less thoroughly-explored grounds. This policy would seem likely to have a discouraging effect on small-scale raothership enterprises like the ninth expedition, but it does not appear to have held back the big operators, as is ev- idenced by the fact that in the first summer season after the ratification of the Peace Treaty both the Nippon Suisan and the Taiyo Gyogyo companies sent large fleets into Southeast Asian waters. This region—the Celebes, Banada, and Flores Seas and the eastern Indian Ocean—proved to have rich tuna grounds as was shown by Japanese explorations before and during World War II. It will be interesting to see whether the results of this latest expansion of the high seas tuna fishery will be sufficiently rewarding to make mothership-type operations a permanent fea- ture of the Japanese tuna industry.
