OTTAWA -- Wing Commander mgus Maolsean. Oonservative MP. ,0,» Queens Friday night urged the Fisheries Department to redouble its efforts in restoring to the Gulf of st. Lawrence the cod. mack- uei and even whale wealth of ‘Cu; ago. He believed their de- piction over the years first had Mn due to unrestricted fishing at about the time of confedera- :inn. and, more recently, the pol- lution of the river waters.

History recorded, he reported, zliat when Canada first was col- mi7.c(l. fishing in the Gulf was as good, or perhaps better than of! the Grand Banks.

Fame of the Gulf‘s fishing in in-.tLen records went back as far as I597 when is Charles Leigh, as -alatcd in volume eight of Hak- mtg Voyages, called those waters and wrotes:

"there we caught great store of :ods which were larger and better than any in Newfoundland."
