sters on the Maine coast. Last season
from 100000 to 100000 short Holsters
were sent from Maine to Massachu-
sets. he asserted.
New Type Of Trap
Capt Albion wotton Of Friendship,
Capt. E. " Shay, Capt. I. F. Mitigate
and Capt. Edwin Chapman Of Bidde-
ford all favored the new law on the
grounds that it was needed in order
to secure uniform laws with Massa-
chusets, 1t would increase the income
of the lobster fishermen, and through
the preservation Of the large Holsters
increase the number OF Holsters In
the Atlantic shore waters. Each was
questioned about the practicability OF
the Sis funnel hoop for the lobster
trap and asked if lobster would be
likely to enter such a small doorway;
also if the lobster was shy and AFRAID
to enter a trap which contained hVe
fish. The opinions differed somewhat
on these questions, but the general an
swer was that Holsters when hungry
will go through any hole they can 10
get the bail. 1t was stated that lob
sters have been found in traps which
had funnel hoops too small to allow
the fishermen to force the lobster
through the hoop again without
breaking the shell. All acknowledge,
that short Holsters are now generally
sold and believed there is no way or
enforcing the law at the present time
when short Holsters may be sold in
Massachusetts,.
NJ. c, McLoon of Rockland explain
ed his experiments with the new type
OF trap which had been abused o?
the opposition and seemed not en-
tirelv in the favor of the fishermen
who testified for the proponents OF
the bill He said he had caught more
large Holsters in the trap with the j
and one-half inch funnel hoop than
with traps with larger hoops. Later
it developed that the Holsters with
which he experimental were not at
large and it was argued by the OPP
position that deep water fishing show
different results in the experiments
Judge Lombard
Judge Lombard of Old Orchard,
member of the Legislature, said that
down east" fishermen opposed the
new law because they could make a
living under the regulations of the
old one, but that fishermen in the
western part of the State could nocf
do so. He said. in regard to the pos
sibility of enforcing the new law.
that fishermen are guided very strong
ly by the adaptability of the new law
to fishing sufficient to make live
l:hood for them and that since the
new law would make it possible for
them to make good living, they
would enforce 1t themselves and in
sist upon its enforcement so long as
it proved profitable TO the industry.
He also stated that he had seen some.
not many, 10 and a half inch Holsters
with eggs, but cid not remember hav-
ing seen nine inch Holsters with eggs
and thought the double gauge propo-
siton in the new law most COM
mendable He declared that fisher,
men in his section of the State even
now frequently throw back into the
sea legal Holsters which are ladened
with eggs and which they know will
propagate many young Holsters. 1t
was nearly twelve o'clock when the
proponents finished their case and the
hearing adjourned to one-thirty P. NJ.

PROPONENTS OF Newt LOBSTER
LAW SUBMIT THEIR CASE

At O'Clock Thursday evening every
seat in Representatives hall was taken;
the INN! ediate interest was in the address
Of Prof. Francis H. Herrick, eminent au-
thority on the natural history Of the
lobster. to be followed by formal hear
ing on the so-called lobster bill before
the committee on sea and shore fisheries.
The address was technical but interest
ing, the chief interest being in his sup
port Of a double gauge" lobster law of
some sort, though he declared that ne
was neutral so far as the proponents and
opponents Of the pending bill Were con-
cerned.
The New Bill
Attorney Frederick w Hinckley Of
Portland opened the case for the pro-
ponents OF the new lobster law, present
ing a new draft based on the scientific
investigation of the lobster industry and
the available Information on the natural
history Of the lobster, especially regard
ing the propagation of the lobster. The
new draft proposes that all Holsters less
than Is inches in length from nose to
the end OF the body shell VIRTUALLY nine
inches over alb shall be of less than legal
length, and that all Holsters of more than
81 inches in length from nose to end of
body shell VIRTUALLY Is inches over alb
shall be Of more than legal length; in
short, Holsters measuring between nine
and Is inches may be taken, all others
must be thrown back into the sea. He
explained that the gain Cor the fishermen
in weight Of the catch would be in pro-
portion to 100 to g pounds, as they can
keep four times more weight now ille-
gal than they will be obliged under the
new law to throw back as illegal. They
will gain in this proportion more weight
in Holsters between nine and ios inches
than they will lose in Holsters over Is
inches long. He exhibited lobster trap
designed to keep out Holsters of more
than illegal length and to allow the es-
cape OF Holsters of less than legal length
through the stats.
The Maine Industry
William T. White Of Rockland, lob
ster dealer, was the first witness, giving
an exposition Of the growth of the lob
ster industry in Maine during the last
20 years. Charles F. Simmons of Rock
land. another dealer. said that practical
ly all HOLSTERS caught are sold in some
way whether Of legal length or not He
estimated that one-third Of the product
Of the lobster industry in Maine is lille

Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1915-02-26

the business for 81 years and favors the
new law. He said he believes 10 per cent
of the Holsters caught 6f between nine
and lot inches in length are sold, the
larger part of them to Massachusetts
smackmen as Holsters of nine inches
length may be legally sold in Massachu-
sets He remarked that any lobster
with two eyes can be sold to summer
residents. Asked if the new law could
be enforced and lobster fisherman pre-
vented from catching Holsters of less
than nine inches in length, he declared
that he could speak for the whole of
York county and say that such a law as
the proposed measure could be enforced
and many of the lobster fishermen OF
York county were ready to be sworn in
as deputies to help in the enforcement
of such law and a union of the Ash
ermen was contemplated to pan for en-
forcement. He proved ready witness
with a ready wit and Merritt A. Johnson
of Rockland, counsel for tne opponents
OF the new bill, could get little satisfac-
ton in cross-examination.
Farmers and Lobster Legislation
Horace Mitchell of Kittery said that
one reason why the lobster law is in
efficient is because Maine LEGISLATORS
know more about potato bugs tnan they
do about Holsters. He told how a leg.
islative friend of his had once remarked
upon seeing many lobster traps about
that people of Kittery must raise large
numbers of chickens. He believed the
new law was not only desired by the
fishermen of his section but much needed
both in the interests of enforcement and
in the interests of the fishermen who
make living from lobster fishing.
Short Lobster Trading
NJ. W. Trefethen Of Portland stated
that SIS smacks are engaged in the
lobster industry in Maine, 16 Of them
owned in other states than Maine. He
said he knew that Is out Of the 16
traded in short Holsters. Not only do
Maine fishermen sell short Holsters to
these Massachusetts and New Hamp-
shire smackmen, but they are obliged
to sell them for eight to 10 cents below
the price they should receive because
they cannot sell them in Maine and
the foreign buyers know it and take
advantage Of the iuegality of the catch
to purchase at a low price. He be-
leved that the uniformity Of the new
law with the Massachusetts, Law was
alone sufficient reason for its passage
to say nothing of the advisability of
saving Holsters over IL inches long as
parents Of an enlarged family OF lob
