CHURCHMEM APPROVE
TREATY OF LAUSANNE
Urge Ratification by America De-
sDita Past Actions of Turk
ish People.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Ratification Of the. Lausanne treaty
with Turkey was urged in letter
to Chairman Borah of the Senate for
eign relations committee, made pub
lie today, by a group of about $50
church leaders of various denomina-
lions.
The treaty was submitted to the
Senate some time ago by the State
Department, and the administration
has recommended it's ratification. but
il has no place on the calendar for
action during the concluding days
of the current session of Congress,
protest against ratification was sub
mitted recently by a group of Episco-
pal churchmen.
Those signing the letter made pub
lie today deplored "a continuation of
an attitude of bitterness, prejudice and
intolerance toward the Turkish peo-
pie and a wholesale condemnation of
them because of their record in the
past" saving the best government
that Turkey has ever known is now
in operation" and expressing convic-
ton that the right policy is to encour-
dye Turkey in efforts to take a new
place in the family of nations.

one that should be worked out imme-
diately to save the Potomac shad
fisheries from virtual extinction. Mr..
Leach said the States of Maryland
and Virginia should enact and enforce
legislation to eliminate a number OF
the shad nets on the river below
Washington, to spread the nets
further apart and should impose
yearly and weekly restrictions on net
fishing for shad.
He suggested that a weekly closed
period, in which shad might not be
taken from shutdown Friday to sunup
Monday, should be established and en-
forced. Similar measures have been
taken to protect the salmon of the
Pacific coast.
Progress In the fish propagation OF
the Government was indicated by the
bureau. which placed the 1925 output
of fish cultural stations and rescue
fields bordering the Mississippi River
at 5,301 1852 ,5S3, principally fish and
fish eggs; as species were handled
and eggs. principally trout, were
shipped to five foreign countries.
Many millions Of fish eggs which
otherwise would have gone to market
in the fish and been wasted were
saved by spawn takers" operating
on the Great Lakes and along the At
lantic Coast. These men collected the
eggs and took them to the hatcheries
for development.

SHAD FISHERIES ARE IMPERILED
BY POLLUTION OF POTOMAC RIVER
Officials Also Warn Virginia and Maryland of Need
of Curtailing Amount of Catch Taken
Weekly and Yearly.

The shad fisheries OF the Potomac
River, long an important contribution
to the fisheries of the Atlantic Coast,
are gradually decreasing in importance
and may lapse into insignificance I'M
less some measures are taken to COM
bat the flood of pollution from the
city of Washington and to curtail the
yearly and weekly shad catch. The
Bureau of Fisheries declares that the
States of Maryland and Virginia must
enact and enforce stringent protective
legislation.
Commissioner Of Fisheries Henry
O'Malley is contemplating calling a
conference of conservation commits
sioners of Maryland and Virginia
next Fall to devise means of stop
ping the wholesale incursions on the
shad by fishermen of the lower
Potomac. The need for such meas
tres, according to the bureau Is
shown by comparative figures for the
years 1922, 1928 and 1924 for the shad
fisheries of the Potomac. In 1924.
1890 shad We're taken in the
Potomac, weighing 57S,210 pounds,
with a value of $Ss,450. This was
about half the number taken in 1922,
and by weight 40 per cent less than

the 1923 ,catch. while the value of
the 1924 catch was As per cent below
the 1928 catch.
The Potomac shad according to
Glen G. Leach, fish culturist of the
bureau, In former years spawned as
far north in the Potomac as the cities
Of Washington and Alexandria. AL
though catches of adult shad have
been reported this Spring In the vicin-
ity of Chain Bridge, new eggs are not
being taken by the bureau from
spawning fish north of Mount Yer
non. The spawning grounds of the
Potomac shad, according to Mr..
Leach, are gradually moving south
ward in the river.
Another cause given by the bureau
for disappearance of the Potomac
shad from its regular spawning
ground north OF Mount Vernon Is the
continued absence of heavy rains and
floods Of sufficient size and strength
to scour and wash out the river bed.
Shhd, Mr.. Leach said, will not spawn
in dirty river, and there has been
insufficient rain in the past two sea-
sons to wash out the Potomac chan
mel.
Prevention of pollution, Mr.. Leach
added, is an engineering problem, and
