UTILITY'S HEAD
ASKS u. S. TO
BAR NEWSPAPER
Charges Publication With
Meddling in Sale of
Securities.
By Uaited Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, July Henry L.
Doherty, head Of the Cities Service
Company, has charged the Kansas
City Star with influencing a state
order barring sale Of certain Cities
Service securities and has applied
to Postmaster General Walter
Brown to have the newspaper
barred from the mails.
Doherty made public a telegram
he had sent to Governor Harry
Woodring accusing him of having
fallen under the evil influence of
the men who control the Kansas
City Star"
He said he had notified Commerce
Secretary Robert P. Lamont that
Woodring had intimated he would
throw certain Cities Service subsi-
diaries into r~eceivership.
The telegram to Governor Wood
ring read in part:
You have in some ways been
peremptory and arbitrary, and when
you had your banking department
issue, without warning and without
cause, and Immediately after and
undoubtedly because we had failed
to comply with your demand for a
reduction in gas rates, you did, in
my opinion. a most unwise thing,
and one which hardly can be char
acterized as anything less than
Vicious"
Doherty's telegram to the post
master-general read in part:
Il assert that the Kansas City
Star doesn't hesitate to color the
news as it sees fit, and that they
are more than untruthful and resort
to deliberate lies, and I think their
paper should be suppressed from the
mails"

angling friends is any criterion, the
possibility of an overproduction of game
fish is extremely remote
The millennium of the angler is
still around the same corner behind

all the advances made by the Federal
Government and by the States will fall
short unless the sportsmen themselves
enter into the picture" he declared.
There is a considerable lag between
the planting of fish from Federal
or State hatchery and the catching of
this fish as legal trophy. Sportsmen
can short -circuit this gap By taking
upon themselves the responsibility Of
taking small, immature fish and rear
ing them to legal size.
The fish nursery system, whereby
sportsmen's groups operate rearing pools
for trout and other varieties, is we'll
established under both State and FN-
eral auspices. This system is at the
present time taking care of only rela-
lively small proportion of the total
hatchery output. And if all fishermen
want all of their fish distributed at fry

rations and protection which makes
big ones out of the small ones.
