STATE MAY BUILD HIGHWAYS
MARYLAND PLAN TO EFFECT
SAVING OF MONEY.
Virginia Fish Commission Asked to
Correct Abuses in Chesapeake
Bay-Tax Exemption Question.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
BALTIMORE, Md, July 31.-lt now
seems likely that the state roads COM
mission may itself undertake the build
ing of the state highways, as the result
of apparent attempts on the part OF con-
tractors to charge extortant prices for
this work The commission has nothing
whatever to gain by letting out the work
except to give the contractor q chance
to do the work whereas with its chief
engineer, w w. Crosby. an acknoWi-
commission is fully able to go ahead and
build the roads and therby save con-
tractors profit .
The advantage to the state in having
The commission build the road VIII be
Great. Not only will there be a saving
IN Zach niece of road. but the state is
sure to have better work done where
there are no clashes between the con-
tractors and chief engineer over the quail
itv of materials and workmanship.
Virginia Cooperation Sought.
The MARYLAND Game and Fish Protec-
five Association has asked the co-opera-
tim of the. Norfolk fish commission IN an
effort to correct many abuses that now
ey.st i'm the Chesapeake bay. Secretary
George II. Dawes of Norfolk. who has
inst completed an inspection of the Ches-
apeake. SAYS that everywhere he found
nound nets in operation, and to them he
attributes the scarcity of food 1sh TOT
either the sportsman or the family table
..Between Old Point and Back river on
the western Shore" said Mr.. Dawes, We
found 15S pound nets. Some of these
extended out into the channel and con-
stitute an obstruction to navigation.
Basis for Cooperation.
Secretary Talbot Denmead of the Mary
land organization has written to Secre-
tary Dawes asking cooperation on these
two points:
.First-Prevention OF destruction of
small perch, rock. trout and blueish by
the menhaden fishermen, who use them
for fertilizer Their defense is that it
would be foolish for them to turn into
fertilizer any fish they could sell in the
markets but they are destroying fish that
are far too small TO market.
..Second-A bill for the protection of
little fish. The fish dealers of Baltimore
have always claimed that 90 per cent of
the little fish handled in Baltimore came
from Virginia. Now il we can get Vir
GINA in line with us OH a law against the
sale of little fish this winter It certainly
would help some
Tax Exemption.
The tax exemption question in SO far
as it relates to personal property is
arousing much attention among taxpay-
ers Under the present law personal
property to the value of $1GO is immune
to taxation. There is a growing senti-
ment that the amount should be increased
to 500.
