Dead Fish In Area
Claimed Minor

Columbus, Ohio-A recent ex-
tensive fish killing in Lake Erie,
which aroused northern Ohio fish
ermen, has been investigated by
the Ohio Division of Wildlife and
found of no consequence to future
sport, or commercial fishing in
the Lake.
Fish management personnel con-
Quoting the investigation reported
that the entire kill consisted most
ly of hatch-of-the-year very
smalD gizzard shad, forage fish
which has little or no commercial
value and is rarely taken on hook
and line. The fish's entire value
to the fishing industry or to the
sport fisherman lies in the fact
that it is food for other fish,
which have commercial value or
are much sought-after by the sport
fishermen.
E. L. Wickliff, chief of the fish
management section of the Divi-
sion of Wildlife, said that the spe-
cies suffers a high mortality in
Ohio waters during the winter,
particularly the young, because it
is primarily warm climate fish
and as result is extremely SEN
sitive to cold or sudden climatic
changes.
He said that very high kills of
gizzard shad have been occurring
for many years in some of Ohio's
larger inland lakes, particularly
Buckeye Lake, and that it has had
no noticeble effect on the fish
population of the lake. In fact"
he said, ''due to the extremely
prolific nature of the fish, the
killings have in some cases appar-
emily been more beneficial than
detrimental"
Fishing management men state
that the kill of Lake Erie shad
may have occurred earlier in the
winter when the weather was
much colder, but only recently
came to the surface with the
warming of the water tempera-
ture.

neys' manuals by agencies and

uals, and the publication of di-
gest of agency decisions of gen.
eral interest.
Indication Of Volume.
An indication of the volume of
work before administrative tri-
bunals is the fact there are
more hearing examiners than
there are judges of the Federal
District Courts.
Judge Prettyman, enthusiastic
over the purpose and the work
of the conference, said it is the
first time there has been a CO.
operative effort of the agencies
affected to improve practices.
I'm the past" he said, i'm
provements have been made by
means of a bill introduced in
Congress on which hearings were
held. Or there may have been
a commission study or a Bar
Association report.
Il believe that interested peo-
pie can do something cooper
atively better than when you
have outside people come in and
say, This shall be done.'"

+! judges, three trial examiners and
IL members of the bar. The
agencies are generally repre-
sented by their general counsels
or, in the case of commissions, a
commission member.
The work was divided among
10 committees. The 81 recon-
mendations are the first results
OF the efforts to simplify and
Streamline administrative proce-
dures. Later meetings will take
up other reports from the COM
mitteeS.
One of the 81 recommenda-
tions is that an Office of ADJ
miniStrative Procedure be set up
in the Justice Department with
a director and a staff. The
duties of this Office would in
clude studies of the adequacy of
present procedures, assistance to
agencies in improving them,
formulation of uniform rules Of
practice and procedures to the
extent feasible, and collection
and publication of information
on the procedures of the agen-
cieS.
On Hearing Examiners.
The director would in CO.
operation with the agencies and
the Civil Service Commission,
improve the arrangements for
recruiting hearing examiners
and the standards for their pro-
motion or removal.
Some of the other recomnien-
dations call for:
Pre-hearing conferences for
the purpose, where possible, of
simplifying the issues, obtain
ing agreement on the admission
of facts and documents and linn
itation of the number of expert
witnesses. These conferences
would be similar to trial
hearings of court cases.
Submission of documentary
evidence in advance to permit
preparation of cross cxamina-
tion and rebuttal evidence
Filing of briefs prior to the
printing of the record. It has
been found that on appeals ex-
aminers' recommendations, law
yers customarily mark every
thing in the record they believe
will support their briefs and this
is then printed before the brief
Is written This was reversed in
10 cases before the Federal Pow
er Commission. Three-fourths of
the cost of printing and con-
siderable time were saved.
Filing of Records.
Certification and filing of alb
breviated records. In cases where
a court review is asked of an
agency's order, the courts are
urged to adopt a rule. except
where a statute requires other
wise, whereby the record may be
shortened as the petitioner and
the agency involved may agree,
or as the court may order.
Encouragement by the courts
for hearing officers to exclude ir-
relavent and repititious evidence.
Agencies to require their trial
attorneys tc prepare detailed
trial briefs in advance of all
hearings. This speeds up a trial.
Some agencies require this now.
Provision for indexing the
record. This makes it easier for
examiners and judges to find
facts on which their decisions
must be based.

have before it this recommended
ton:
"That every agency (of Gov

records in adjudicatory and rule

This embodies the aim of the

is considered necessary to make
