With BILL ACKERMAN

in Maryland tidewaters and to treat
with the fishery commissions of
nearby States toward better fish
ing practices and promulgate laws
that would guarantee equitable
cropping.
Many believe the recent passage
Of an act by Congress to permit the
commissions of the various States
to enter into agreement to regulate
the take OF migratory fishes along
the Atlantic Coast will result in
better practices and conservation.
It sounds well on paper, but Mary
landers and Virginians In the past
never have been able to arrive at
any agreement for taking the blue
crab. Legal fishing in one State is
outlawed in the other. Add to that
the fact that neither side believes
it is at fault, and we have a situa-
ton that is impossible.
Federal Control Needed.
And If that is true for the crab,
it holds for fishes and bivalves.
Both States seek laws for increased
production, but they do not care to
give up their usual manner Of reap
ing the harvest It is not likely
either ever will willingly change,
which leaves Federal control of ma
rine fisheries as . last resort. :,
We have believed for years such
control is the only way migratory
fishes and crabs will get the protec-
ton necessary for greater produc-
ton with better prices for q select
product without endangering the
species. In the past, Federal find-
ings have been sought, but seldom
followed. Had the various States
followed these findings, obtained at
the expenditure Of millions Of dol
lars, there now would be no shortage
of blue crabs in the Chesapeake,
no need to make the striper sports
fish on the Jersey coast and no pos
sibility OF other species being fished
out.
