Game Fish A
Released In
County Wate,

More than $4,000 black bass
were planted in Jackson County
waters last week from the Federal
Fish Hatchery in Lyman, MEM
bers of the Jackson County Hunt
ing and Fishing Association were
told Tuesday night by Dudley B.
Heiliger, superintendent of the
Hatchery, who promised that adj
ditional fish would be planted in
public waters as rapidly as pos
sible.
The bass, or green trout as they
+ commonly known, ranged
from one to three inches in
length, Mr.. Heiliger said.
A. NJ. Pelham presided at Tues
day nights meeting at the court
house and presented the hatchery
superintendent as we'll as j. B.
Brown of the Mississippi Forestry
Service who showed several edu-
cational films. relative to the dam
age caused by forest fires.
In his address, Mr.. Heiliger
explained fish culture and reveal
ed that about two million game
fish are produced annually at the
Lyman hatchery. He said that no
other hatchery in the United
States had the wealth of food
available here.
The speaker asked the group
to keep a close check on stream
pollution and put members on
their honor not to release fish in
polluted waters or waters likely
to be periodically polluted. He
asked that they check new in
dustrial plants to prevent further
pollution of the streams.
Mr., Heiliger explained that the
hatchery used to have a surplus
of fish but that they now have
back orders for more than a mil
lion and a half Dream.
A good crowd attended the
meeting, in spNe of a binding
rain storm in progress before and
during the gathering. The next
meeting will be held in Vancleave

Broome Confirms
No Rent Raises
In FPHA Units

There will be no rent increase
in the FPHA units here and the
plan for setting present rent rat
es as the OPA ceiling, announced
public last week, is the policy
which will be followed, John I.
Broome, regional director, told
the Chronicles Star Wednesday.
Mr.. Broome, who is on the
coast from his headquarters in
Atlanta to attend a state meet
ing of housing officials at BIZ
loxi, said that a telegram re-
ceived from Rep. w. M. Colmer
this week in Washington indicat-
ing that the FPHA might raise
some rents after all was the re-
suit of the fact that the Wash
ington FPHA office had not yet
been officially notified of the
new regional decision not to
raise rents.
Mr.. Colmer apparently was
given "old information" by the
national office, on which he had
exerted pressure to prevent the
rent raises, during his latest talks
with the office, Mr.. Broome said.

Port Con1rniss
Protests Laying

The Pascagoula Port Commits
sion filed a protest this week with
the u. S. Engineer office in Mo

cation for the laying of a sub
marine telephone cable across

of Communy Bayou.
The Coast Guard applied for

poration, informed the Port Com
mission that this would not per-

itself us entirely too shallow"
Mr.. Guest urged that any cable
at that point should be at least
rs feet below mean water.
Capt. IL. Fl. Cole, president of
the Port Commission, urged that
the cable be located elsewhere,
suggesting the l. g. N railroad
and highway 80 bridges as suit
able sites, since cables are al
re ady in these areas. To lay a
cable 300 feet north of Communy
Bayou, he said, would increase
the hazards of docking big yes
sells at the City Docks. These are
normally locked with the bow
downstream, he said, and to do so
it is necessary to drag anchor
in the area for which the Coast
Guard has applied for a cable
permit.
