SEVERN RIVER TO
REMAIN CLOSED
TO NET FISHING

So far as the preseEt session OF the
Legislature is concerned. the Severn
River fishing situation will go undis-
turbed. the Senate yesterday by asvote
Of Is to ? having KILLED" Senator
Brady's bill TO open the river to gill
netting and gigging.
The Committee to which the bin
had beer. referred reported it unfavor-
ably, but Senator Brady made mo-
ton TO substitute the bill for the an
favorable report and strongly support
ed his motion in a speech in behalf of
the practical fishermen. However, the
Senate, with almost one accord. stood
by the committees report and during
the discussion. several Senators, in
cluling Senator'S Grason, Mish and
Frick called attention to the fact that
both sides had been fully heard by the
Committee and its conclusion reached
after careful consideration. They held
that the present law. keeping the river
closed to net fishing was a good one
and the vote resulted accordingly.
1t was contended for Senator
Bradys bill that the limited net fish
ing permitted under it would tend to
rid the river of many of the scavenger
or trash" fish and would be a benefit
in letting the desirable fish have a bet
ter chance to thrive.
