Johnson Would Retain the
1OE, Inch Lobster Law

The 10 1-2-inch lobster law has a
staunch hacker in Marrtt A. Johnson
Of Rockland, who knows the lobster
business from A to u. and who also is
a firm advocate of a much larger APP
preparation for the Sea and Shore
fisheries work and believes that 1t
should give its attention to other sea
and shore fisheries matters Of great
Johnson:
Il belive that there should be a gen.
eral survey of the entire situation, in
Guiding smelts, founders and clans as
we'll as Holsters and then laws should
be made and a sufficient appropriation
allowed so that they could be enforced
to the bitter end.
"One-seventh OF the entire population
Of the state is engaged in seashore
fisheries and their interests should be
protected a great deal more than is
done at the present time. AS 1t Is now
we allow the digging over Of the clam
fats without the slightest attempt at
restriction except in a few local cases.
There should also be attempts at pro-
pagation for the clam will live In any
flats that are not polluted.
Then the protection of smelts ex-
tends principally to the rivers and
there is no attempt at their protection
where they need most to be protected.
Ground fish should also be protected in
spawning time. I have seen in whole
sale fish houses carloads of spawn
thrown away with the most reckless
abandon
Mr.. Johnson further stated that out
Of the 1000 lobster fishermen in the
state he did not believe that more than
half Of them had complied with the
license law. He also declares that he
would find way to punish foreign
smackmen so that they would not dare
to come to our coast to induce Maine
fishermen to violate the laws Of the
state.
Mr.. johnson takes so great an inter-
est In lobster law enforcement and the
maintenance Of the present standard
that he appeared as private citizen
and without any retainer in advocacy
Of the present law at the hearing last

Even the most optimistic have been
astonished over the automobile trade
for the last year; it has been past all
comprehension and at least from 25 to
80 per cent. ahead Of the business of
1915. Just how many cars were made
will not be known until all the figures
are in the hands Of the officials of the
National Automobile Chamber of Com
merce. but that we'll over 1000 900 new
cars were put on the highways is not
an extravagant figure. 1t is safe to say
that now there are more than 3,0O0,O 900
