MR.. LEE Says FiShermenS fears are
UnfOunded.


Editor Journal
Permit me to say tersely some
thing in respect to a meeting Of
fishermen / understand was lately
held in your county.
The gathering was incident up
on misinformation as TO draft of a
fish bill to be presented to the leg
islature by the Commission Of
Fisheries. This bill does not
Itohibit fishing in May, but re-
quires nets to be lifted only be-
tween June 10th and September
Ist. This and a few other rea-
sonable features are the outcome
OF compromise between theNor-
folk Board of Trade and the
Commission of Fisheries.
But for our efforts. and my ad-
dressing the Norfolk people sew
eral times recently, the pound net
fishermen would have been against
fierce legislation, Such as closed
season during spawning seasons
nets restricted to 20 #. depth etc.
Did the agitators in our section
make some effort to pacify the
Norfold people (who are our fel-
low Virginians) and less to create
distrust in the Commission whose
duty, interest and pleasure it is to
protect the fish industry, the con-
slant menance to wiping out this
industry would be lessened. am
glad to learn that one ofMathews'
abb" lawyers ceuncelled delay of
action until the smoke showed fire.
Similar misrepresentation and
harmful agitations have been
aroused over the Commissions
recommendation as to lanes
River oyster lines. Your Com
mission is not composed of fools.
and 1t is absurd to think thew
want to injure industries that thew
must build up. or else step out Of
Office. If put into effect. our
views as to James River will give
the tonesmen twice the acreage of
profitable grounds. they now have
there. Those who counsel differ
emily are not really friends to the
tongers They may be sincere,
and at the same time ignorant.
The Commission is also sincere.
and if we do not know what we
are doing. it means orr political
funeral. In view OF our past
management of oyster affairs. and
its acknowledged success, l for
one. am writing to abide the issue
if our policies are adopted.
we ask the cooperation Of
honest oystermen aid fishermen,
since we have up hill work in
propitiating western legislators.
Respectfully.
w. MCDONALD LEE,
Commissioner of Fisheries.
