SAYS CRAB INDUSTRY
FACES DESTRUCTION
Dealer Declares That Prices Will
Become Prohibitive With
Few Years
LINTHICUM BILL URGED

Unless the Federal Government
takes control of the grabbing indus
try in the Chesapeake Bay, within the
next three years crabs will be retail
ed at about S. a dozen.
This is the information conveyed to
Representative J. Charles Linthicum
of Baltimore, sponsor of bill in Con-
gress to control the grabbing season
on account of the failure of the Vir-
ginia and Maryland State Legisla-
lures to enact concurrent legislation
regulating the industry.
Joseph p. Sellers, of Baltimore, who
says that he has been engaged in the
grabbing business for 30 years, wrote
Representative Linthicum suggesting
that the Department of Commerce, of
which the Bureau of Fisheries is
unit, should be empowered by Fed
eral legislation to impose fines rang
ing from SIS to $50 on all persons
who have nets for crabs out of sea-
son and that the spawning season of
the female crabs should be restricted
TO the period between July and No
vember
He pointed out that unless imme-
diate steps are taken to protect the
industry the price Of crabs to consum-
ers will become prohibitive within tho
next few years and will be available
only to those with large pocketbooks
and hence will pass out OF the realm
of the poor mans meal I
Representative Linthicum's meas
ure which has been pending for some
time on account of the belief that the
Virginia Legislature would take ac-
tion upon which the Maryland Legis-
lature could concur, will be taken un-
der consideration by the House Com
mittee on Interstate Commerce and
Fisheries either the latter part of this
month or early in April when extend
ed hearings will be held, at which, it
is expected, representatives of the Bu
reau of Fisheries, as well as delegates
from the grabbing industry in Mary
land. will testify in support of the
measure and urge its early enact.

first bill pertaining to local affairs
of Anne Arundel county, passed at
the present session of the Legislature
The measure is that which empowers
the Board of County Commissioners
to borrow money from time to time,
i'm amounts at their discretion to re-
deem outstanding certificates. Here
tofore the county has been restricted
in it's loan to 5 per cent. interest,
but the provisions of this bill author
lied the authorities to borrow money
at the market rate of interest pre-
vailing at the time such negotiations
were entered into.
The hill was introduced early in
the session by Chairman Howard, and
meeting no opposition, it was pass
ed by both houses in comparatively
short time. Although this bill is now
law, the County Commissioners will
not proceed under its provisions, in
view of the fact that the bond issue
bill. offered in the House today covers
every angle of the financial affairs
of the county.
