POLLUTION HAS
BEEN GIVEN CHECK
Commissioner Butler Talks About
What Has Been Accomplished
in the Last Year

Filtration works to stop pollution of
streams have been established at over
200 tanneries. acid works, refineries,
paper mills and similar plants at the
instance of the State Department of
Fisheries in the last year and streams
in which no fish could live nave been
restored for fishing, according to Ma
than r. Butler, State Commissioner of
Fisheries, who has just returned from
a trip of inspection to the western and
northwestern parts of the state.
In almost every section where fill
tration systems have been installed
there has been a saving to the manu-
facturer or producer as well as clear
ing of the waters so that fish can go
about" said he. There are tanneries
which are making big savings in the
way of hair and fieshings and | know
of reilneries which save nine barrels
a day. and all through the filtration
plants. on the Allegheny watershed
we have succeeded in getting rid of
some Of the worst pollution from oil
works and acid works and | have let
ters from the manufacturers showing
how they have saved. We intend to
push this work and | believe / can
bring about good conditions on some
streams which are ideally located for
fishing but which are now so full Of
poisonous matter that it is useless to
plant fish in Them
Mr. Butler says that as soon as the
weather is fitted he will begin distri-
button of yearling trout. The number
of applications is large. the mild
weather having stimulated them, and
hundreds of thousands of fish have
been asked for The commissioner
made an inspection of the hatcheries
and SAYS there will be an abundance
of trout to distribute this spring.
