One boat from the island brought 400 pounds to Noank recently and disposed of them to agents receiving 24 cents a pound. This. the lobstermen state. is
 what keeps the price of iobsters down.
 Boats owned by men on Block Island al- so bring in and sell lobsters at Noank. | under the, same conditions as it is much
 cheaper to sell them there than to buy barrels and ship from Newport
 This competition from outsiders is considered. unfair and the lobstermen 1 living in Noank and vicinity feel that il l is no more than right that some law ! should be enacted to compel lobstermer 1 living out, of Connecticut to pay for the privilege of bringing in and selling their | catches in state towns.
