THE RHODE ISLAND OYSTER
INDUSTRY THREATENED
With AnnihiIation Greatly Polluted
Waters the Cause.

Providence, r. l., March e.-The
oyster industry in this state is threat
ened with humiliation as the result of
the greatly polluted condition of the
waters over large portions of the best
oyster beds of the state The findings
of the experts who made examinations
here a short time ago have not been
made public, but they are understood
to have been of character to fill the
oyster growers with the gravest ap-
prehension for the survival of their
business. The Rhode Island Oyster
Growers association has filed a for
NAL complaint with the commissioners
of shell fisheries, calling upon the COM
mission to enforce the state laws
which prohibit the pollution of these
waters.
Several municipalities and many
private concerns have been using the
bay as a dumping ground for sewage.
The shellf7Sh commissioners are pre-
pairing to take drastic steps to prevent
further pollution.

Many reports have been circulated that
the reforms to be suggested by the ma

establishment of central bank for the
United States. This has recently been
openly suggested on the floor of the
Senate. although the members of the
commission itself have been silent on the
subject.
The latest of the monographs to be
made public is that dealing with the
banking law of Switzerland; and here
again the commissions expert points GU,
that other methods of regulating the
currency of the country were abandoned
for a central bank plan.
