VJs'eA ooote' tective'' motor boat
Tarragon of the bureau Of navigation has
just made with the closing Of the oyster
season her last inspection among the
fishermen. Next fall this work will be
taken up by the Dixie. the new ninety
foot boat just purchased by the govern
ment.
While the Tarragon's work has been
primarily to enforce the navigation laws
among motor boats, she found big field
of usefulness among the oyster fishing
fleets Before 1912 it was not uncom-
mon for men to be kidnapped or ''shang-
haied" and forced to work on the dredges.
Others were gotten by Misrepresentation
housed abominably and given atrocious
food. In many cases the employees were
dumped" at the end of the season with
out wages at some lonely place. When
such men worked their way to Baltimore
or some other large city they were usually
penniless and not in a position to invoke
the law against their oppressors.
The Tarragon was able to go among
all the groups of dredges. to hear COM
plants on the spot and to make inspec-
tons. Her comma nder had one Of the
few rowing commissions as United States
marshal, and was able to make arrests
in any district. The change in conditions
that the Tarragon was able to bring
about by this work is shown by the few
complaints that were made during the
season just closed. and by the fact that
many members of the crews are contented
enough now to ship on the dredges season
after season. Having handed over the
the Tarragon will in the future devote
her whole time to keeping tab on the
large fleet of motor boats in southern
waters.

arise while the president is away,
requiring an immediate conference
