Best spots for cumming nov
seem to be in the mouth of the
Patuxent and UP above the new
bay bridge near the mouth o1
the Chester River.
Fishing for hardheads has beer
generally unproductive, but ir
connection with this species comes
the best fish story of the week
just past. Bill Thomas, an in
defatigable troller for rockfish
who has cottage at Arundel-on-
the-Bay, was near the new bridge
of Sandy Point There he ran
across vast school of hard
heads, on top of the water, ap-
parently herded there by a school
of porpoises. The hardheads
were SO frightened by these ma
raunders they were almost para
1yzed. Drifting through this
school, and using only his landing
net, Thomas dipped out several
tubs full of fish.
PorpOises Chase Out Fish.
We wonder il the porpoiseS in
the bay haven't had a lot to do
with the poor fishing of late at
usual hot spots. There are a
number of these critters sporting
in the vicinity of many good fish
ing grounds and whenever these
gregarious cetacea appear, the
fish decamp.
Another group Of our friends
spotted a huge school offshore
this side of st. Jerome's creek last
weekend and said the big man.
mails were rolling all around them,
one actually rubbing against the
boats hull, taking off some paint.
Porpoises come into the bay almost
every year, but rarely are found
In numbers up that far. Per-
haps that is why the small school
rockf1sh are close in shore or in
the mouths of creeks, or well up
the bay where the porpoises do
not like to travel.
We'd like to hear from some of
the old-timers on the subject. Also
we'd like to see the Department of
Tidewater Fisheries organize a
few expeditions against the por-
poises. They certainly do not
help fishing for either sportsmen
or commercial fishermen.
Unwritten Law of Sea.
While there is sort of an un-
written law of the sea among
commercial fishermen to let por-
poises alone, since they are
generally considered harmless. we
know of no Federal or State
law prohibiting killing them to
drive them off when they are
doing harm.

O'Kell's Record

How can we hope to have the

that breed disease and crime?"
George Nicholas, candidate for the
State legislature asked a group of
businessmen in Miami Springs yes
terday afternoon.
Nicholas said that the present
incumbent George O'Kell is respon-
sible for colored folks suffereing. My
opponent is inaccurate when it
comes to presenting a true picture
Of his record for the past two years
In sponsoring the hated sales tax
my opponent would have you be-
lieve that legalized gambling was
the only alternative. He knew this
wasn't true because legalized gamb-
ling did not have the slightest
chance of being passed.
My opponent voted for decontrol
Of rent which allowed dishonest
landlords to raise the rents of the
poor people who could not afford 1t.
This was particularly true in the
colored sections Of Miami where the
people are handicapped by made
quate housing and slum conditions.
These conditions should be remedied
Immediately. 1t is not important who
removes the slums. The idea is to
get the job done. The slums must
go if we are to have a progressive

Senator Tydings also said that
countries getting American mill
tary supplies ought to be required
| to produce on their own a tank
or it's equivalent for every tank
they get from the United States.
Britain, France and other West
ern European countries have re-
sisted efforts to get them to turn
many of their factories into pro-
duction of tanks, guns and other
military equipment.
They have contended that such
action would keep them from earn
ing scarce American dollars and
add a tremendous burden to their
steps toward economic recovery
from World War II.
In the plan on which Mr.. Tru-
man based his request for addi-
tional foreign arms funds key
point is that American Allies would
be given an opportunity for earn
ing American dollars while turning
out weapons needed for defense of
the free world.
If approved by Congress, the
President would be given author
ity to buy finished arms and
military equipment, raw materials
and machinery, not only from the
Atlantic pact nations, but any
where in the world.
Officials say they want author
ity to set aside about $400 million
of the 81 billion to spur Western
European production. For this rea-
son added emphasis will be given
to, heavy machinery and other
materials needed to equip West
ern European countries for the
production of arms.
Informed officials also made it
clear that the new request for
arms aid will not be the last.
Heavy expenditures may be ex-
pected over the next two years at
least.
President Truman's request for
the additional arms funds was
made in a letter to Speaker Ray
burn and said speed is imperative
in getting production under way.
He said it has not been determ-
ined how much each nation will
need. But he gave this break
down on the areas to be helped:
North Atlantic -----$3 ,504 ,000, 900
Greece, Turkey, Iran 193,o00,000
Philippines and Asia 303.000,000
No Marshall Substitute.
Mr.. Truman also emphasized
that the arms program should not
be substituted for the Marshall
Plan undertaking designed to re-
vitalize the economic strength of
Western Europe.
The Senate followed this idea in
approving the 500 million eco
nomic assistance for Spain by
adopting an amendment proposed
by Senator O'Mahoney, Demo-
crat of Wyoming, that the funds
come from the Export Import
Bank and not out of the Marshall
Plan appropriations as provided
in the amendment to the money
bill The amendment to include
Spain in the list of countries re-
ceiving aid from the United
States was offered by Senator Nc
Carran, Democrat of Nevada.
While Senator Tydings was
arguing that it was sheer rea-
lism" to bring Spain into the orbit
of countries combined against
Communist aggression, several
Senators opposed the loan on the
grounds that it was an attempt
to bribe the Franco government

Strategic Importance Stressed.
The strategic Importance of
Spain was emphasized as sup
porters for the $100 million loan
argued for its passage during the
Senate debate preceding the vote
on the proposal.
The loan was authorized by a
provision written into the omni-
bus appropriation bill and, in
view of the Korean crisis and the
threat it poses to world peace,
drew unexpected large support.
Senator Morse, Republican, of
Oregon, and others who opposed
the loan conceded Spain's stra-
tegic Importance but said they
could not vote for it in view of
what they described as the coun-
try's Fascist leadership that de-
nieS free elections.
The measure now goes to the
House for action. If approved
there the commercial transactions
made possible by the Export-Im-

The letter, addressed to Chair

Mr.. Truman's new communica-
ton arrived as demands were

Senator Brewster, Republican,
Of Maine told reporters the Presi-
dent, in his new letter, did not call
for an excess profits levy now.
But he did not close the door
on it," Senator Brewster added.
Excess Profits Rider Fails.
One effort to put through the
excess profits tax failed today
when the House Ways and Means
Committee tabled, by 15-to-s
vote. a rider to the defense con-
tract renegotiation bill.

ing bill. substantially as SUBJ

Sees Increased Revenue.
The bill, to buy more American
fighting equipment, came up for
closed door consideration today by
the committee.
Senator George figured that the
increased rates on corporations
and individuals might raise Sc
billion to So billion in the next
year, instead of SIS billion-be-
cause of the probable increase in
national income.
There was increasing clamor,
meanwhile, for:
/. Broadening the bill to strike
a whitening blow at proflteering.
