limit. Each contestant is allowed
any legal sports fishing tackle, but
may use only one hook and line,
and must do his or her angling
from the shore-no boats allowed.
A rule which is probably boon to
the youngsters who like to do things
themselves, but puts quite a strain
on excited parents, is the one which
limits landing assistance to the
realm of verbal comments. 1t
takes a strong-willed father or
mother to control the urge to "lend
hand" when the offspring snags
a fighting fish.
To the boys and girls who
successfully land the heaviest
fish in species from sunfish to
the salt water variety go ma
tional titles, and angling out
fits. 1t is seldom that any con-
testant leaves the fishing
grounds emptyhanded. Local
merchants and service clubs
seem to have way of digging
up prizes for all.
And while all these activities are
being planned for the children, it
is becoming a rare community in
deed that is not sponsoring fishing
contests for the grownups of the
community during the summer. In
many communities local merchants,
in cooperation with local publica-
tons, sponsor monthly contests with
prizes for the biggest catch. In
other localities the contests are
conducted on a fishing season basis.
The idea OF fishing as a sport to
be sponsored on the local level is
finding increased popularity be-
cause it fosters health and produc-
tive activity linked with enjoyment.
It is finding increasing popularity
also as means of bringing parent
and children together in an atmos-
phere of clean, uninhibited fun.
Although some hard-shelIed
veterans of the rod and reel
may scott at the benefits or
even the sanity of bringing
fishing pole and young lady
together, the BFI refutes any
doubts they might profess. The
girls have more than held their
own with the males.
Some fishing veterans will tell
you it is a good idea indeed. For
instance, if the husband arrives
home loaded down with new fish
ing tackle instead of the fur coat
she expected, the wife will under
stand because she too enjoys the
sport and is probably a devoted
angler herself. Instead of packing
for the return trip to mother, she
will be we'll satisfied with the pur-
chase of fishing outfit. At least
that's the theory.

down that long trail from which no
people-no civilization-has ever re-
turned"
The world at large is in even
worse shape than the United States,
for there are only about four bill
lion acres of land available for a
total population of more than two
billion-or slightly less than two
acres per capita. This means that
considerable portion of the
earth's population already is un-
dernourished, and this as much as
anything probably is at the bot
tom of the worlds current unrest
Plant breeding, reforestation,
and improved utilization of soil
and fertilizers were among the
methods by which DR.. Camp
proposed to meet the imminent
challenge to Americas econ
Omy.
New hybrid varieties of corn
which have increased production
by rs per cent, and new species
of grass which have raised the
forage yield by more than 100 per
cent were cited by the speaker,
who said tree breeders also have
developed hybrids promising quail
ity lumber in one-third to one-half
the usual time
These more efficient plants, how
ever, impose new demands on the
grower, who must supply them with
enough mineral nutrients through
the more efficient use of fertilizers.
Proper administration of miners
may make it possible to restore to
production some of t he acreage
which has been despoiled.

CROPLAND CONSERVATION
Misuse of CropIond Endongers
Nations Future Food Production

American civilization will reach
a disastrous turning-point within
20 years unless immediate and
heroic measures" are taken to save
its remaining cropland and to guar
antee continuing food supply for
its growing population, the presi-
dent of the American Horticulture al
Council warned recently in an ad-
dress at the American Chemical
Society's 10th national meeting.
Already, erosion and misuse have
robbed the nation of 100 million
acres of cropland out of the $50
million acres acquired by the early
settlers, DR.. Wendell H. Camp,
curator of experimental botany and
Natural Sciences of Philadelphia,
declared. If adequate steps are not
taken Immediately, he asserted,
another 100 million acres will have
been discarded by 1860.
Yet the population "now ex-
ceeds $50 million and is rising
at the rate of 2,2OO, 900 a year."
DR.. Camp pointed out. Since
nutritionists estimate that it
takes two and a half acres of
cropland to provide properly
balanced diet for single per-
son, the United States seems
destined to arrive at the crit
ical point at which it has just
enough cropland sin the next
fifteen or twenty years. Being
the best fed. best clothed and
most adequately housed people
in the world, we somehow have
the feeling that nothing can
happen to change the situation"
Actually, we are potentially very
close to the brink of disaster, and
it is very likely that our actions in
the next decade will decide wheth-

"At present, these vat-cultured

not as yet see ahead on any distant
horizon the darkening shadow of

Americans spend millions for fish
ing equipment and it's the wise
Main Street merchant that dis

The amazing thing about fishing
is the attraction it holds for mil

In this connection, many
towns in the country have en-

Maryland and Virginia
Far Apart in Effort 10
Conserve Seafood
BY the Associated Press

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 16. Mary
land and Virginia remained right
far apart" today in their effort to
end a long standing feud over how
to conserve mutual seafood re-
sources.
The major issue was where to
start.
Virginia suggests the Potomac
River and its oysters.
Maryland insists on Chesapeake
Bay and its fish.
Legislators from each State Of
fered little hope for agreement at
meeting here yesterday.
1--WE are right far apart in the
matter of legislation" Delegate w.
Tayloe Murphy of Virginia told
the Chesapeake Bay and Tribu-
taries Committee of the Mary
land Senate.
Mr.. Murphy came to Annapolis
with Virginia State Senator Rob-
ert o. Norris and Delegate Charles
Unruh to chat with Maryland
Tidewater legislators on seafood
matters. The only Maryland
measure filed at The current Legis-
lature regarding a joint approach
to bi-State differences would
create Maryland-V Virginia Chesa-
peake-Potomac authority. Both
States would have to concur and
Congress approve before it could
function.
Il don't see anything that we
can take offense at in your max
ing the proposal" Senator Norris
observed. The Virginia visitors
recalled, however. that their State
had turned down the idea three
years ago. ..
Mr.. Unruh recommended legis-
lation adopted in Virginia last
year seeking. joint control of
oystering in the Potomac as a
start "to prove a commission can
work.

0ber Law Again Attacked
In Maryland Litigation
BY the AsSoeioted Press

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 16.-The
two-year-old Ober law was at
tackled in the Court of Appeals
for the fourth time yesterday.
Mrs. Thelma Gerende. a Pro-
gressive, demanded that she be
allowed to run for the Baltimore
City Council without signing the
n-subversive declaration. She
previously challenged the law in
the court last October IL as a
Progressive candidate for Con-
gress in the second district.
This suit was against the Bal
timore Board of Election Super
visors which refused to allow Mrs.
Gerende to file her certificate of
application without signing the
loyalty pledge.
Last year at the third hearing
of the Ober controversy the ap-
peals court ruled that persons
running for Federal Offices need
not sign the oath but those seek
ing state offices were obliged to
sign.
