TO HALT HERRING WASTE
District Commissioners May Appeal
to Maryland and Virginia
Governors.

Assertions made by John T. Jones,
former inspector of oysters of the Dis
trict of Columbia. that millions of her
ring care used annually by companies
along the Potomac river for manufac-
ture into fertilizers and oil. may lead
TO an investigation by the Commission
ers. Shortage of herring on the local
market is attributed by Mr.. Jones to
the wholesale destruction of this food
fish by the manufacturing concerns.
Commissioner Siddons this afternoon
said that he intends to look into the
matter and intimated that If it is
found there is a law in Maryland or
Virginia prohibiting manufacture of
food fish into fertilizers or oil the
executives of those states will be asked
to cooperate with the local authori-
ties with Tiew 20 preventing utiliza-
tion Of herring for this purpose.
The Commissioner also stated that the
aid of Congress might be invoked il
conditions are found to be as bad as
depicted. According to statements made
by Mr.. Jones as many as 100000
herring have been used by the manufact-
uring companies in a single season. One
company alone. lie stated, used ll.0OO, 600.
