From Rocks.
BY the Associated Press.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, November O.
After being driven from the oyster
rocks yesterday by State conservation
officials when they lacked licenses, a
fleet Of oyster dredge boats put out
from the harbor today, the majority
having obtained the required permits.
Clerks at the Office Of the State
controller issued 80 dredging licenses
yesterday and last night, the Office
remaining open until pm. A total
of 80 licenses have been issued since
Thursday. compared to ia licenses
issued in 1884 and less than 100 in
1898.
The dredging season opened yester-
day and the oyster men. accustomed
to about months grace before license
requirements were strictly enforced
found their operations halted by Con-
servation Commission patrol boats.
Only Sixteen Boats Remain.
Many of the boats put into An
napolis. Capts. E. NJ Tyler, E. F
Evans and w. C. Smith Of Smiths
Island estimated that there were
about 40 boats in the fleet that came
up the Chesapeake Bay from Wico-
mico, Dorchester and Somerset Coun-
ties.
This morning only Is boats re-
manned in the harbor, the others hav-
ing showed off, apparently provided
with licenses.
Estimates of the number of water
men who we're held up by the strict

captains pointing out that the boats
carry an average of five men for crew.
Dredging licenses cost $3.50 for each

N CARL HOLDS KEY
TO POTATO CURB
A. A. A. Awaits Funds to
Enforce Act-WaIIace
Sets AII0tmentS.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A. A. A. officials watched Controller
General McCarl's office today to see
whether they will be allowed to use
$4,000 900 of special funds to enforce
the potato control act.
If so, it was indicated, the A. A. A.
will quickly move forward with the
task of deciding the number of
bushels each individual farmer may
harvest and sell next year without
paying, a tax Of about As cents a
bushel.
National and State allotments were
announced yesterday by Secretary
Wallace. but the individual allotments
were held up pending McCarl's ruling.
The national allotment was fixed
at 226 10000 bushels. The State
allotments totaled 222, ,o6s 900 bushels.
The difference of 4,532, 900 is to be
used in adjusting any inequalities in
the State quotas, officials said.
All potatoes grown and marketed
in excess of the quotas must pay the
penalty tax.
A. A. A. forecast that virtually all
the marketed potatoes would move
into commercial channels without the
payment of any taxes.
The purpose of the potato control
act. subject of widespread controversy
is to prevent surplus production. raise
prices to farmers and give potatoes
the same purchasing power the crop
had from 1919 to 1929.
Ninety-f1ve per cent of each State
allotment will be given to farms upon
which potatoes have been grown dur
ing one or more Of the years between
1882 and 1884. The remaining S per
cent will be apportioned to farmers
who did not raise potatoes in those
years.
The allotment for Virginia was TO-
$4,000 bushels and for neighboring
States: Maryland. 2.110,00O; North
Carolina, 4,375.000. West Virginia,
955,000. and Tennessee, $4,000.
Loud protests already have resound-
ed. Open predictions of defiance and
potato bootlgging have been made. At
one time Wallace said he would do
everything possible to keep from en-
forcing the law. but at a potato

tests we're so vociferous that he re-

that China eventually may have to de-

Though officials were reticent to
discuss the rumored conversations,
sources usually well informed hinted
China has approached Russia on the
question of assurances that Moscow
will stop economic and political PEN

In return, said these sources. China
has expressed willingness to increase
purchases of Russian goods and aid
Russia in opposing Japanese advances
across Northern Asia.

China" said the government
spokesman, 'has not yet been forced
to decide between Japan and Russia,
but sometime in the future, perhaps,
China must make this momentous de-
cision."
Oficials of the Kuomintang (the

5O.Year.OId Pay
Of Macy Workers
Claimed by Ferc
Money for Overtime in
Yards in I878-I882
Waits in Treasury.

Although the last session of Con-
gress authorized payment OF long
pending claims for services performed
by navy yard workers more than 30
years ago, apparently few of the claim
ants or their heirs are aware the
money awaits them, according to
statement from the Office of Senator
Walsh, Democrat, Of Massachusetts,,
who sponsored the legislation.
The claims represent pay for over
time work performed in the navy
yards from 1878 to 1882, and the
bill to accomplish settlement was
debated in Congress at intervals for
many years before it passed. From
the Washinston Navy Yard there were
349 claims, amounting to S81, 900.
For all Navy Yards the total Is
$332, ,342.74, affecting 1850 persons.
The Walsh statement points out
that, with the passage of the years, a
considerable number of the original
claimants have died, and that unless
the heirs recall that their fathers.
grandfathers, uncleS or brothers
worked in the Navy Yards between
1878 and 1882, and whether they are
entitled to make application, sub
stantial part of the appropriation
made by Congress is likely To remain
In the Treasury.
Names of the claimants from Wash
ington, as well as those from the other
Navy Yards of the country, are listed
in the bill which Congress passed
