some of the best natural oyster beds and
bars in the State
The oyster industry in Maryland is a
very important one and deserves to be pro-
NOTED and conserved by the State. But
TINS is impossible under a law which ap-
proaches the subject from the hypocritical
standpoint, that is to say, that under the
euise OF propaganding oysters on barren
bottoms or making oysters grow where
none grew before.
The real influence behind this law has
sought to obtain some of the richest do
main now subject to public fishery for their
own private gain.
III the State has decided that public
fishery is failure and that it is desirable
to adopt private ownership or a leasing
system in its stead and attempts to lease
the natural rocks, it should be done openly
and with the express purpose of adopting
that policy.
The oyster industry can be promoted
and made to become much Greater than il
is both as producer of revenue to the
state and an increased food supply by
proper laws and regulations made by the
present system Of public fishery.
THE Hannah law. in my judgment, has
retarded the movement which undoubtedly
would have been made ere this to replenish
the natural rocks and make more stringent
laws for the regulation and protection of
the industry that would have greatly in
creased the quantity and quality of the
oyster supply and put the question on
common-sense business footing
