CONTROVERSY

Told Japan'S ImportationS
Are Not Competitive

The United States Tariff
Commission today is ponder
ing arguments advanced yes
terday on behalf of crab meat
vendors Of Maryland and Vir-
ginia, who protested japanese
importations of crab meat but
were met with claims that the
japanese crab meat offers no
competition to the home
product.
Representative Goldsborough of
Maryland and Swepson Searle,
Maryland State conservation
commissioner, led arguments for
the local industry at the hearing,
which was authorized by a senate
resolution directing the commits
sion to investigate local and for
eign crab meat production.
DR.. Waldo Schmid of the Ma
tional Museum, and DR.. Percy w.
Bidwell of the University of Buff
falo, testified, however, that the
japanese canned crab meat offer
ed no competition to the Amer
ican product, and was as much
unlike the local crab meat as
horses differ from cattle.
Mr.. Earle said Maryland and
Virginia produce 68,760,000
pounds of crab meat in 1880.

critically i'll at the Maryland
General Hospital here from a

 It Can Be Done
 The decisive manner in which the Brooklyns were beaten by the Naugatuck entry last Sunday angurs well for plenty of interest in the playoffs, for the boys from the borough proved that the Brooklyns are not unbeatable though you can count their de- feats of the past two years on the fingers of one hand.
 Increased Interest
 Gentlemen with wagering ten- dencies will be very active Sunday from all reports and as the Emer- aids performance of last Sunday has stirred up plenty of financial as well as vocal interest in the borough. A suitable preliminary game will be arranged for the tilt. with the main attraction scheduled for 2:45 o'clock. John Cluney and Clem Brlott will offciate as ref cree and umpire, with Chick Car ney and Briotti to handle the sec ond clash one week from Sunday.
