MOBILE ID URGE DEEP WATER FOR
 BAYOU LABATRE.
Fishing Industry In Gulf City's Trade Territory Is Develop ing to Enormous Totals.
 Commerce Club Alert

Mobile, January 15.-( Special )-The Mo bile chamber of commerce has prepared a report showing the necessity and ad- vantages of connecting Bayou la Batre with Mississippi Sound, by securing a channel of not, less than six feet deep, at mean low tide, from the county bridge to the six-foot contour in the sound. A copy has been sent to Major Earl North, United States district engineer.
 Since the preliminary examination of Bayou la Batre was made by the United States engineers office at Mobile, in 1915, the list of vessels engaged in business at Bayou Ia Batre has increased from 33 to more than 153, the latter number being engaged in the fish and shrimp business, alone, as shown by the books of the chief oyster inspector of Alabama, on this data
 Within the same period of approx inetely six years the value of shrimp. fish and oysters shipped annually from Bayou la Batre to other parts of Ala bama and to other states has increased from $s,5i4 to more than $1 $1,250,000. Of this new business, by far the greater part is in canned shrimp, there being three large canneries now in operation anu LII ucdliI6 tOuiptCNiOi.
 Reports from these canneries show that 1s car loads of canned shrimp were shipped from the station at Bayou la Batre by rail, between October 1, 1920 and January II, 1921, with 8 total of 1S,- S09 cases, and that 4,099 cases of shrimp were shipped by rail in less-car ship lnents, and that more than 5000 cases of shrimp were shipped by water from Bayou Ia Batre to Biloxi, Miss, because of the better freight rates on canned goods from that port to the eastern markets. The open season for shrimp, for canning purposes. is from August 10 to May 1. under the state law, and the catching of the raw product contin- ues without apparent decrease. Ship ments of oysters. crushed oyster shells, red snapper and other fish. also have shown notable increase since 1915
 The increase of Bayou la Batre in com mercial importance is due in a large measure to the introduction there of a new method of catching shrimp in the Gulf of Mexico, Mississippi Sound, Mo- bile Bay, and other estuaries of the Gulf of Mexico. About three years ago the dragnet, called a '-trou," was brought into general use in Alabama waters, giv- ing a more reliable and uniform supply of shrimp than could be obtained by the

Shrimp are taken in the gulf from water as deep as F fathoms, and are known to exist in quantity at 20 f3ahoms depth New and extensive shrimp beds are being discovered as the "trol' method of taking shrimp is extended; the state law gives ample protection for shrimp during the months of their grea.- est propagation. and it appears that the industry more probably will be increased than diminished in the future.
