American Tunaboat Association Announces Officers For 1973 The annual meeting of the American Tuna- boat Association was held in San Diego, Calif., to review the year's activities and to elect ex- ecutive officers for the new year. Lou Brito, the Association's 1972 president, was honored for his contributions and was pre- sented with a memento of appreciation. The 1973 slate of officers was announced as follows: president, Joe Medina Jr.; vice president, Julius Zolezzi; secretary, Daniel Marks; and treasur- er, George Alameda. Special concern was expressed by tuna boat owners with regard to increasing vessel con- struction and closed season allocations for small purse seiners. As a result, A.T.A. adopted the following Resolutions for 1973: (a) to re- quest Federal suspension of the construction tax reserve program regarding tuna vessel con- struction for new vessels entering the fleet in 1974; (b) to request suspension of the Puerto Rican income tax exemption for new tuna ves- sels operating out of Puerto Rican ports, com- mencing in 1974, and (c) to request consolida- tion of all purse seiners of 400-tons carrying- capacity or less into a single small-boat allot- ment for the Eastern Pacific yellowfin tuna closed season, commencing in 1973.
