BUREAU OF FISHERIES

REPORT

OF THE

UNITED STATES
COMMISSIONER OF FISHERIES

FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 1938

NOTE

The first section of this volume, entitled "Bureau of Fisheries," constitutes what was known in years prior to 1933 as "Report of the Commissioner of Fisheries." Since then, in the interests of economy, it is a reprint from the "Annual Report of the Secretary of Commerce." The pagination, therefore, is the same as that of the Secretary's Report, rather than beginning with page 1.
