This year the season opening July

crappie, runs until November 30.
The change, made under the re-
cent recodification of the game laws,
will put a stop to the illegal catch
ing Of bass.
Arnold Stewart, the Wilmington
outdoor writer and member OF the
Atlantic Coast Fisheries Compact
Commission, after taking one lone
channel bass during an extended
trip down the Maryland and Vir-
ginia beaches that totaled nearly
500 manhours Of strenuous surf fish,
ing, says that not only are the
channel bass schools nonexistant,
but that no commissions ever will
restore them to their former num-
bers in this area.
Only when the United States Fish
and Wildlife Service takes over the
control of all migratory fishes in
coastal waters will we again see
the great schools OF bass and sea-
trout and bluefish. The States never
have. and never will. protect these
important marine resources.

ging coal, urge them not TO trespass
on mining property. To al miners,
I want to say tbis-the coal mines
today are In the custody Of the
people Of the United States Govern
ment. Miners are citizens Of the
United States. They are not tres
passing when they 60 into the mines
to dig the coal that their country
needs, particularly when the coal
mines are In the custody Of the Gov
ernment Of the United States-their
Government.
So far Is my Job in the coal in
dustry is concerned, mine workers
and mine owners shall enjoy no ad-
vantage, one above the other.
There have been no deals, no or
the-record agreements nor any pri-
vate commitments made either with
John L. Lewis, the United Mine
Workers, the operators organiza-
tions or any single operator. And 1t
is not my intention to make any
deals with either group now or in
the future. It Is my hope that a
firm understanding can soon be
reached between the miners and the
operators. 80
Labor Statesmanship Needed.
The lack Of good will, the failure
on both sides to proceed directly
and promptly to an agreement has
done great damage to the coal in
dustry. . They have inflamed
the Congress. which felt compelled
to pass q most stringest law designed
to prevent or to outlaw strikes In
taken over by the Gov
eminent. 1t is, In my opinion, most
unlikely that the coal difnculties
can be abolished by the stroke OF a
pen-any pen. Whether that be
possible, We shall see. But, possible
or impossible, 1t should not have
been necessary.
There should be that quality of
in labor's councils which
adjusts its grievances with manage
ment without resort to extremes
which embarrass production for war
at such perilous times as these. In
deed. we have already seen ex-
amples of the kind Of leadership to
which I refer. We have seen in
stances of labor craftsmanship In
this war of which labor's rank and
tile may be proud. BY going back
to work on practically the same
terms as prevailed under their last
contract (Which has been continued
In full force and effect by the Gov
the miners have entered
into competition in generosity of
which they are entitled to be proud.
Only in a spirit Of cooperation
between the miners. operators and

Of unified effort within our home

| work. There were also we'll founded
complaints that absenteeism was too
high among the miners to give us
assurance of meeting our goals. Yes,
here were some people placing their
own interests ahead Of those Of their
country. 80
These things that I mention hap
pened many weeks ago. Time has
passed. We have taken North Africa
in the meatime. We have conquered
some Of the Mediterranean islands
on our way to Italy. We are face
to face with the invasion Of the con-
tinent of Europe. -"
In the shadow Of this campaign,
can any mans private, individual
problems amount to more than q
pin prick on the hide OF an elephant
Is compared with the great public
and collective problem confronting
every American and every citizen Of
the nations with which We are
allied?
This is var-total, all-enveloping
war. from whose effects no one can
escape.
Must Have Coal Fast.
There is no intention on my part
to expect a greater contribution
from the miners than from any
other group. On the other hand, so
long as I am charged with the re-
sponsibility Of operating the Ma
tion's coal mines, I cannot expect
that their contribution shall be less
and that goes for the operators Of
the mines as well.
I have no intention Of Snatching
the mines from their rightful owners.
However, the Government has had
to assume supervision Of the Ma
tion's coal mines in this protracted
dispute. That has become necessary
because-and I repeat and empha-
size 1t once more-we must have
every ton Of coal that We can dig
just as fast as We can dig 1t out Of
the ground. ."
I am sure from what I have seen
and heard recently that many thou
sands OF miners are realizing their
responsibilities to their country as
well as to their sons and brothers
in the armed forces and because OF
that realization they are eager to
pursue the tough Job Of digging
coal. -" But I have had others
