STATE HOUSE
Next Meeting A. M, Tuesday, May

the town of Sebago in Cumberland
county.
In an interview on Wednesday,
Commissioner WaShburn explained
that farmers in Cumberland county
who are fearful of loosing the sale
of their corn, are unnecessarily dis
turbcd. There are no restrictions
either State or Federal, against the
movement of corn in any direction
from the towns of Cumberland coun-
ty with the single exception of Sc
bago which is under quarantine. Corn
growers in Gorham, Windham and
vicinity will be allowed to market
their product wherever they please
for the early part of the season at
least, although changes in the lines
of quarantine may be made late in
the summer if the spread of the in
sect requires it.
With regard to distribution of corn
from the infested area, more string
ent regulations will be necessary.
After consultation with Federal Of
ficials in charge of corn hOrer work
it has been decided that in all pro-
liability no corn from infested towns
will be admitted to the city of Port
land or other areas now free of in
festation, for market or general use.
This regulation seems necessary be-

ADJUSTMENTS
Has World War Destroyed Old Fam
iIv Ideals?


Do present day girls enjoy too
much freedom? Has the World War
destroyed cherished ideals of family
and home? These are questions an
swered in "Prodigal Daughters" a
new Sam Wood Paramount picture
production, starring Gloria Swanson.
which will be shown at the Colonial
theatre today only.
Miss Swanson plays "Swiftie'
Forbes, one of two daughters of a loco
motive manufacturer enriched by the
world war and who is in Europe. She
is ultra emancipated, and her young
er sister tries to emulate her in ev-
erything. The mother is engaged in
renewing her youthful appearance,
and the girls enjoy unlimited free
dom.
Forbes comes back and finds his
household changed. And the girls
defy his parental authority. Swiftie
leaves to live her own life. Her sis
ter follows and gets married only to
find her romance quickly shattered
and returns to the home. But Swiftie
becomes entangled with a gambler
and finally is placed in a position
which spells the end. Finally she re-
turns-a prOdiGal daughter-tO find
her father waiting to forgive and take
her back and a sweetheart ready to
wed her.
1t is a Swiftmoving story. The love
element is supplied by young avia-
tor played by Ralph Graves. who be-
1ieves in Swiftie even at her worst
moments. Theodore Roberts is the
father, Vera Reynolds the sister and
Louise Dresser the mother.-adv.

Nonresident Fishing
Fee Is Not Increased

From correspondence with nom
residents. the Department of Inland
Fisheries and Game has recently
learned that there seems to be an
impression that the nonresident
fishing license fee in Maine has been
or is to be increased. This is not the
fact. The fee this year will be the
same as last. S3.15. the law being
applicable to all non residents 16
years of age or over. No bills sug-
costing an increase in the non-resi-
dent fishing licenses fee were intro
duced at the last session of the Leg
islaturc, and the Department is at n
loss to understand how this report
started.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1923-05-10

tive to the new resident hunting and
fishing license law, we are sending
the following detailed explanation Of
it's provisions at this time:
The Legislature which adjourned
on April 7th enacted a law, which
becomes effective July Z, 1923, re-
quiring a, residents Of Maine who
wish to hunt or fish to be equipped
with the new combination hunting
and fishing license, fee 25c-term Of
license. under the new law, to be the
same as the former hunters regis
tration certificate, You will note
the full text of this law in the hand
book Of revised laws which we shall
shortly send to your address-about
July LIST.
Children under sixteen years of
age are not required by the amended
law to procure license in order to
fish, but the provisions pertaining to
hunting by such children are the
same as in the former law.
The new law provides that a per-
son who on July z, 1923. has in his
possession one Of the old form CSC
hunters registration certificates,
provided he is still entitled to hold
one as a resident of Maine, shall be
considered as being a holder of the
new combination license, but any
one who has lost his hunters regis
tration certificate. or a person who
has never had one, must II he de-
sires to hunt or fish, procure one
of the new licenses. AS above sug-
gested, the fee is CSC, the same as
under the old law, and the license
remains in force so long as the IL
censee remains a resident of Maine.
In the case Of alien residents, their
status Is the same as formerly
they are not entitled to a Csc license
until such time as they become nat
uralized, or are real estate tax pay
ers for the year in which they de-
sire to fish or hunt and have lived
in Maine continuously for two years
prior to the time they desire to fish
or hunt.
Commencing July 18th, Town Clerks
will retain only ten cents for each
of these licenses, the State to receive
fifteen cents. Please bear this in
mind when making remittances COM
|; mencing July 18th. A twenty five
cent license is not required of a resi-
dent who simply hunts or fishes on
his own farm.
From the above you will note, I'M
til July 18th. the old law prevails
that resident citizens are not reuuir-
cd to secure a fishing license until
July 18th.
Very truly yours.

cause of the fact that Portland is
general distributing point from
which corn is reshipped to markets
in many other towns and cities of the
State. Also. Federal officials have
made it very plain to the State De-
partment that they regard corn
grown in infested areas of Maine
exactly as they do the product of the
infested towns of Massachusetts. If
corn should be shipped out Of York
county to the markets of Portland
and other Maine cities. the Federal
restrictions against Massachusetts,
corn would be Immediately removed
and the infested product from out the
State would then have free access to
our markets from which it might
easily be distributed in many direc-
lions.
The commissioner realizes that this
regulation will work hardship upon
some planters inside the quarantine
line who are accustomed to find their
corn market in Portland or at Scar
boro, but he believes it necessary in
order to prevent the spread of the
borer. Every effort will be made to
put this information before the far
merS as soon as possible, since 1T Is
not desirable to encourage farmers
to plant for this market which in all
probability will not be open to them.
Arrangements have, however, been
made so that all corn growers in both
infested and free territory may de-
liver their corn at the canning fac
tories under certain restrictions. Corn
grown in Quarantincd territory may
be hauled to factories in free territory
under the inspection and permit of
the Department of Agriculture. 1t is
not unlikely that the distribution of
waste from these factories may be
restricted, however. since 1t is man
ifestly unwise to allow the cobs and
huSks from suspected territory to
be distributed among the farms of a
clean area.
The commissioner points out that
he has not yet the authority to make
definite regulations since the Corn
Borer Law" passed by the last legis-
laturc is not effective until early in
July. but the above will indicate the
form such regulations are likely to
take. Briefly, the situation will DO
as follows: Growers in York county
and Sebago cannot count on a mar
! kct in uninfested territory for gen.
eral use, but will be permitted to
| deliver their product at the Cannerics
under certain restrictions as to in
spcction and the use of the factory
| waste.
| The suggested plan of placing all of
! Cumberland county under quarantine
| does not seem advisable to the De-
| partment. 1t would greatly lengthen
| the quarantine line and many more
| factories would be involved beside
! exposing all the corn growing areas
| of Cumberland county to the unre-
strictcd spread of the insect. All the
| horcr bearing products reShipped
from Portland would have to be in
spectcd, and finally. this plan is not
acceptable to the L. S. Department
| of Agriculture.
