HOOK AND Line FISHERMEN
AIR RESTRICTION PROBLEMS.
WITH COMMERCIAL OPERATORS

Problems and arguments of
hook and line fishermen were
aired in conference with COM
n1ercial fishermen at Sandusky
this week, with an objective in
sight whereby both groups may
find a middle ground of co-opera-
ton.
Henry Stahl, Fremont attorney
representing the Wightman Boat
Club, said proposal had been
made to commercial fishing in
terests which would remove nets
from the mouth of Sandusky Bay,
as well as various rivers and har-
bors., if acted upon. The proposal
would also ban nets from within
one mile of reefs and shore lines
and prevent the closing by nets of
better than one quarter of the dis
tances between shores.
Commercial fishermen, it was
reported, have indicated that they
will give due consideration to the
hookers and liners by referring
the proposals to the Ohio Com
mercial Fishermens' Association,
when that group meets February
"a.
Hook and line enthusiasts re-
port that they are still consider
ing circulation of initiative petit
tions to cause nets to be removed
from many fishing grounds in
Lake Erie.
Those attending the Sandusky
meeting from the area included:
Earl Schaefer, Erie county; Ed
ward C. Lay and Walter Elfers,

AS general rule, public servants acquire thick
skins and ever prepared to expect the worst rd
cue, criticism and petty bes. It's all part of the game
and this class OF people rapidly adjust themselves to
variety of conditions.
1t was, therefore, almost like biting dog
last week when the local G. O. P organization decided
not to challenge six Democratic courthouse ncumbents
In effect, the Republican decision of the fin
est tributes paid to Ottawa County ocehoders,
and the Democratic Party another four year
hold on the administrative affairs of the local court
house.
We feel that this unusual situation reflects the
public attitude and thinking, that is reward for the
conscientious unsesh efforts of outstanding group
OF public servants and pat the back to the Demo
cratic Party for sponsoring and supporting such out
standing slate of candidates for public Office.
Our sincere congratulations join the well wishes of
the general public in the automatic retention in office OF
Prosecutor Myron A. Rosentreter Treasurer D. L. Cu
lenen, Clerk of Courts Velma Sauvey, Sheriff Merriam
Budd, Engineer Delos Nssen, and Recorder Grace M.
Winters.
Each, know, will continue to render the high
standard of service that has gained for them much
deserved public esteem.

Question: A water pipe burst
and thoroughly soaked my plaster
wall. I let the spot dry thorough
ly, sized the wall and then painted.
AS long as the weather was dry,
the paint held UP very well. But
when our damp season set in,
the paint started to peel. I'd
like to repaint this winter. but
I'd like to do it in way which
will prevent further peeling
What do you suggest?
Answer: When plaster gets
good and wet. it frequently be-
comes Microscopic, and in humid
weather it absorbs moisture,
enough so that it will cause paint
to peel. Your best bet will be to
replace the plaster, because any
new paint you put on will un-
doubtedly come off again..
Question: How can I take out
a grease spot from my wallpaper?
Answer: There are special wall
paper cleaners on the market.
They have a doughlike consist
ency. and are kneaded over and
over the spot. Another method
is to make a paste of powered
whiting, chalk or fuller's earth and
non infammable spot remover.
Spread it 1a-inch thick over the
spot. When it dries, brush it of.
Repeat if necessary.
Question: I have some lawn
furniture of redwood which I
would like to weatherproof and
yet maintain the natural wood ap-
pearance. I was told to use lin
seed oil, but this has turned the
wood very dark, spelling the lovely
red color. What can you suggest?

to the elements will lose its natu-

Plaster Can Become 'Hygroscopic'

Answer: would suggest bleach

crystals (poison), leaving it on

plenty of clear water. After dry
