FOR UNIFORM FISH LAWS.
Movement in Maryland That is Being
Earnestly Pushed.

Mr.. Henry Bra,1S Of Baltimore, who has
given much time ard attention to a study
of the Maryland, fish laws, has written h
letter to the state game warden at Cum
berland, Md, Mr.; John w. Averill, making
some practical Suggestions regarding the
improving of existing Maryland laws regu-
lating the catching of bass and other fish
Now is the time, in my opinion writes
Mr.. Brauns in :he course of his letter,
when everybody, throughout the state, who
has at heart the true interests of fish and
fishermen, whether fishing for profit or
pleasure, well the interests of those
who purchase the fish for the sustenance
OF themselves and their families, to be-
stir themselves in the matter of modi-
flying and changing the existing laws and
the manner of enforcing same, that they
may be made uniform throughout the vari-
Gus counties to the benefit of all equally
and not now. only for the benefit of
small favored class who mostly live at or
near the mouths of our numerous rivers
and who, with their large pound, stake
and purSe-netS and other cOntrivanceS for
the wholesale destruction and catching
of fish prevent the fish from going TO the
upper waters of the streams and thus de-
Stroy the. opportunities of those who live
in the back country from the pleasure and
profit of catching their supplies close to
their own homes and farms.
"a large portion of the laws as they now
exist unquestionably favor only a certain
small class of fishermen who also seem to
have sufficient political influence to pre-
vent the enforcement of the few good
laws now on our statute books, which were
evidently intended to prevent this wholesale
destruction of the fish for the benefit of
the few. but to the detriment of the ma
jority of the citizens of our state"
The Maryland STATE Game and Fish Pro-
tective Association has sent out copies of
the letter to all Maryland newspapers, with
the following request:
I'm order to aid IN the passage and en-
forcement of the laws of the state, will
you kindly give this article. the spirit
thereof space in your valuable publication;
for, in so doing, you will place this matter
squarely before the voters and the pros
pective members of the legislature Of your
county, with the view of having uniform
and equitable laws passed, at the coming
session, for the proper protection and pro-
pagation of fish and game. and which will
also provide the necessary means for a
strict enforcement of he same"
