To Establish Fish Hatcheries.

Nashville, Tom, Nov. In pre-
pairing a set of modern fish and game
laws to be presented to the next Leg
islature for adoption, members of the
Legislative Committee of the Tennes-
see Fish & Game Associeti n, recent
ly organized on a Statewide basis,
declare that enc of the first and most
important provisions will be to seek
to utilize for it's plans 100000 now
declared to be lying idle in the State
treasury to the credit of the Fish and
Game Department.
This money which he's been ac-
cumulating yearly from fines, penal
ties and licenses, is not being used
for the purposes of the department,
but is held by force of circumstances
for the reason that no provision is
made for it's application to improve
ment of fish and game conditions,
i is said. That at least large pro
portion of this sum should be en-
ployed to provide public fish hatch
cries, is the contention of members
of the association, who say that a
provision will appear in The proposed
laws to this end.
When these funds are so utilized,
the government, as has been it's prac-
tice, it is said, will certainly lend sub
stantial and supplementary aid in
the same direction with the result
that land owners anywhere in the
State agreeing to provide protection
to their streams, will receive ample
free supplies of all varieties of game
and food fish adaptable to the waters
of Tennessee. Also private funds
may be relied on to help in this re-
spect when the success of the enter
prise is assured, members of the asso-
citation say, basirg their opinions on
like conditions elsewhere
That the land owners of the State
oi III iilS Win INC pans anu pro-
gram of the association in the re-
spect named, is assured, it is said,
by applications already being re-
ccived offering pledges OF protection
to supplies of fish if the Legislature
will make the desired financial and
other provisions. Farmers on both
sides of Duck River for an extent of
more than twenty miles have given
assurances to this effect and others
in different parts of the State have
indicated their approval and sun
port, it is stated.
