Maryland Delegates
Pass Bill 10 Seize
Virginia Dredge Boat,
BY the Assocroted Press

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Feb. IA
Punishment for Virginia oyster
dredgers in the Potomac River
through coniscation of their boats
passed the Maryland House of Dele
gates yesterday.
Senate approval of the COM
promise plan for prosecuting viola
tions of antidredging laws was
certain, since it has the backing of
Gov. Lane.
Also without trouble or debate,
the House adopted a Senate-ap-
proved resolution for the appoint
ment of three Marylanders to a
Joint Commission to survey Potomac
fishing problems.
When the Senate acts on the
punishment bill, it will be the last
legislative action in the "oyster war"
between the States, until the COM
mission comes forward with recon-
mendations for a lasting peace" :"
1885 Agreement Involved.
When the fiareup frs. occurred,
over Maryland's objection to Vir-
ginia's failure to prosecute vigor-
ously all Virginians accused of IL
legal oystering, the plan was to have
Maryland try Virginians in Mary
land courts.
Since 1885 the two States have
tried their own citizens if arrested
inin the other State for illegal fish,
ing.
The compromise, legislative e
spokesmen said, was acceptable
since loss of boats would be blow
to oystermen, and at the same time
Che laws of 1885 would not be abro-
gated pending further parleys be-
tween the Free State and the Old
Diminion.
Commission to Meet March %.
The joint commission already ap-
proved in Virginia, is scheduled to
meet March % at Mount Vernon.
This will be the 162nd anniversary
of the pact on Potomac River fish
ing rights and the commission is
directed to go over that agreement
to see what changes would be desir-
able.
Two Maryland members of the
commission will be Maj Robert
Archer of Bel Air, former assistant
attorney general and ardent con-
servationist, and William Hilgen-
berg, Baltimore wholesale seafood
dealer.
The third man has not been de-
cided upon.
