UNCLE SAM TO SCOUT
FISH BY AIRPLANE
Navy Observers to Telegraph
Location of MackereI.

WASHINGTON, May 24.-The Bureau OF
Fisheries has taken up with the Navy
Department the matter of using naval
air craft in locating schools OF fish at
sea and communicating the information
to the fishermen.
The Gloucester (Mass.) Board Of
Trade some months ago addressed to the
Navy Department request that naval
planes and airships be utilized in assist
ing fishermen to And schooling fish, es-
pecla.ly in the southern mackerel fishery.
and asked the Bureau OF Fisheries to
use it's good offices in laying the project
before the Navy Department.
The Navy Department expressed It's
willingness to do everything in Its power
to assist the fishermen. and arranged for
a conference at which representatives
of the New England fisheries. the Blu
reau of Fisheries an the patrol division
OF naval aviation were present.
The outcome Of the conference was a
tentative arrangement by which a duly
qualified observer should make flights
over such parts of the Atlantic as
seemed most promising and the location
of any schools of fish noted should be
telegraphed to designated organizations
of fishing interests
The matter OF direct communication
between airplanes and fishing vessels
by means OF the radiotelephone was also
taken up. Experimental operations will
begin at Cape May. N. j.. in the near
| future.
