Watermen's S Session
In Annapolis Hit as
Plot Against Clark
BY the Associated Press

PRINCESS ANNE, Md, Mar. 29.-
Delegate Carl Hoffman, Republican,
of Somerset, said yesterday that a
watermen's gathering in Annapolis
was the result of deliberate con-
spiracy to continue antagonism'
against John E. Clark, chairman OF
the Tidewater Fisheries Commits
sion.
Some 600 watermen and seafood
packers appeared at the State House
Friday to reiterate their objections
to the leasing of Chesapeake Bay
oyster bars to private interests.
Mr.. Hoffman said "a member OF
the Tidewater Commission, George
Harrison, aided by Nelson Coul-
bourn, stirred up the whole mess
themselves" He said watermen had
been told that if they did not at
tend the meeting, certain oyster
rocks would be placed under lease" "
although the session had actually
been "rigged" soley for Mr.. Clark's
discontinue.
SUulUUuTu xSSuSS Ektplys
Mr.. Coulbourn, an oyster packer
and Mayor of Crisfield, commented
that the meeting was not stirred
up by Harrison and Coulbourn. The
fact that 900 persons were there
shows the great interest among wa
termen and packers on the question.
1t also reflects the storm of protest
which has arisen-not over John
Clark-but over the principles in
volved.
Mr.. Harrison refused comment.
Mr.. Hoffman continued that Mr..
Coulbourn "hopes to get Clark's job
on the commission if Clark quits.
That's common talk around Somer-
set County"
Mr.. Coulbourn replied, however,
that "the Governor and every one
else knows that am not interested
in a job with the Tidewater Com
mission-and I never have been" !"
Creighton's Duties Disputed.
The intracommision dispute re-
Gently divided Mr.. Clark and Mr..
Harrison on the question of what
duties should be assigned to- Capt.
Amos L. Creighton, commander of
the commissions enforcement feet.
Gov. Lane asked Fridays gather
ing to help plan a conservation pro-
gram on which all interested parties
could agree. He also said he would
not permit the leasing of bay areas
to large private interests"
Mr.. Hoffman, a seafood packer,
said he had been given no opportu-
nifty to speak at Fridays meeting
"for they know how I feel about Mr.
Clark" and they also knew I would
expose as false the rumor" of the
impending leases.

Dupont Circle, long favorite spot
of Easter paraders, was not open
to the paraders because OF work
on the underpass.
Women Parade in Mayf1ower.
The real fashion parade was not
on the avenue. 1t was too cold
for many to stay out long. But in
the lobby of the Mayhower Hotel
many women took off their winter
wraps and promenaded in the lobby.
It seemed that most simply had
donned their new bonnets, prefer
ring to wait for warmer spring days
to wear their Easter outfits.
No member of the family was left
out of the gay fashion festivities on
Connecticut avenue. Even family
dog had an Easter outfit. One
Pekingese wore an Easter bonnet
made of green ribbon and black
yelling with rosebuds trimming the
chapeau One of the youngest OF
the Easter paraders was 5-month-
old Diane Weaver, daughter of 1t.

wore her christening robe under
meath a warm wool sweater.
Capt. George Waldrodt of the
third precinct said about IA extra
policemen had been assigned to
traffic detail on Connecticut avenue.
It was the most traffic he had seen
on the broad thoroughfare in eight
years.
Some traffic lights jammed, add
ing to the congestion. A few were
out for hours.
Pink Will Predominate.
What was the general fashion
picture yesterday? Well, as we said,
1t was a pretty covered up one. But
glimpses of suits underneath win
ter coats and toppers. convinces
us that spring is going to be pretty
colorful. A healthy pink look will
predon1inate if the hats, suits, and
toppers worn in the Easter parade
are any indication. Mauve tones
also were very popular with the
paraders.
Easter bonnets were mostly in
pastel straws. Frothy maline trim
mings and floral decorations OF
roses, violets, lIacs. poppies, and
practically every other flower in the
garden were used on the hats. Navy,
grey, and the new Baienciaga color
were spotted in most of the suitings
all with longer hemlines.
