Conservation of Food Fish

trolling those factories violently protest
the fish they use is the menhaden.
There are many industries, such as
those engaged In the canning Of salmon
and Ssh roe. that use some particular
part of the fish and regard the remainder
as refuse. Under an exception in my bill
this refuse may be disposed Of to the
fertilizer factories, and these factories
would be guilty Of nothing unlawful in
using this by-product in the nanufac-
ture of fertilizer. The bill merely seeks
to discourage the deliberate use OF food
fish for fertilizer by prohibiting the ship
ping of such fertilizer in interstate COM
merce.

IN order to give the Department Of
Commerce. which would have charge OF
the administration Of this law. a con-
yenient means to enforce the same, my
bill provides that every interstate ship

no fish, except such as are permitted un-
der this act"
The Linthicum bill provides penalties
ranging from 500 fine to three years in
prison for violations of the proposed act
and the Secretary of Commerce is vest
ed with the authority to make all neces-
sary regulations for its proper enforce

Representative Linthicum declared that
although his bill did not seek to cripple
the fish fertilizer factories, they were,
nevertheless. actively opposing it
Representative Linthicum's other bill
has for one Of its chief objects the Fed

Unless we check present abuses, it win

THE manifest necessity of restrictive
measures ought to be easily seen. The

Conserve the food fish.

SOA1tANG AnC AOOQ hhu.
This is the slogan OF the campaign
Representative J. Charles Linthicum of
Maryland has inauguraied in the House
for action by Congress looking toward
national consultation of one Of the most
important sources OF food supplies-fish.
Mr.. Linthicum has introduced two bills,
which. ne believes. will have a salutary
effect In preserving food fish. One seeks
to regulate, under the Federal authority
over interstate commerce, the practice
of uGing fish for fertilizer purposes, and
the. other would give the Department OF
Commerce authority to proclaim open
and closed seasons for fishing, with a
view to protecting fish during the prop
agation period and also to regulate the
methods by which fish may be taken.
~ am convinced that what is required
TO preserve fish is national legislation" :"
said Mr.. Linthicum. my investigations
lead me to the conclusion that the de-
pletion of our fish can be traced to two
principal causes:
First, the deliberate sacrifice. Of good
hsh by the fertilizer factories in the
manufacture of oil or fertilizer COM
pounds; second, the lack Of regulations
as to the time. manner, and place under
which fsh are taken.
To Regulate Transportation.
"One of my bills seeks to regulate
the interstate transportation OF fish or
products or compounds thereof. when In
tended to be used for fertilizer or oil
or in the manufacture of fertilizer or
OIL
Now, the fish fertilizer factories con-
tend that they do not deliberately catch
any fish other than the menhaden. be-
cause the menhaden is the ideal fish for
their particular purposes. The bill which
I have drawn excepts the menhaden,
which in some localities also Is known
as the pogie, or fatback, or mosshunker.
Ii places no restraint upon their un
limited use Of the menhaden. II also
permits them to use sharks. dognsh'
skates, rays. sea robins. and sculpins, so

to, or would infiict hardship on the fish

equaled by none others. have accom-
| plished nothing toward this end:
therefore be it resolved, That the
directors of the board of trade and
business Mems association most
earnestly petition the councils of the
/ city of Norfolk, Va, to make an APP
proposition as outlined by the dock
J commission Of two hundred thousand

pose to secure our proportion OF the
trade made available by the construc-
ton of the Panama canal.
And be II further resolved, That we
petition the railroad and steamboat
