He said women's group could
help to further the cause of free
dom in this country and warned
against the softness and indiffer-
ence in many areas. He compared
Russia, taking on national pro-

work.

Duplicate Bill Is
Vetoed By Governor

Governor TaWes vetoed bills en-
acted by the 1859 General Assem-
bly, last Thursday, one Of them be-
ing duplicate measure for Gar
rett county.
The duplicate bill involved ap-
pointment of an industrial engineer
for Garrett county. Tawes said
Senator B. 1. Gender, sponsor of
the bill had requested him to sign
the House version because it was
better, as amended, than the SEN
ate bill.
Others vetoed were two to pro-
hibit banks and trust companies
in five counties from performing
certain acts in connection with
estates unless represented by a
lawyer. Two others were rejected
on advice of the attorney general
that they were unconstitutional.
Three others were turned down
because they duplicated bills al
ready signed or to be signed.
Salary Quotation Incorrect
1t was incorrectly stated last
week the salary of the deputy
treasurer would be $4,000. The cor
rect amount is $1,000 This was
one of the bills signed into law
last week by the Governor. 1t
allowed for the appointment of
deputy treasurer and fixing the
salary. The treasurer receives 81
500 for his salary and this amount
was unchanged in the new measure.

County Officials
Seek State Help
Conference Held With Pub
lie Works Board To Re-
duce Unemployment

Garrett County officials on Mon
day asked the state for assistance
in relieving their unemployment
problem.
The appeal was presented to the
Board of Public Works by State
Senator Bernard l. Gender, the
three county commissioners and
their attorney. 1t was the fourth
of a series of conferences with
state agencies to ask similar
help from all groups Most of these
we're listed in a news article in
last weeks issue.
Specifically the men asked the
Board of Public Works for help
in these areas:
Acceleration of state roads con-
struction in the county; increased
coal purchases by the state from
Garrett County mines; state par
ticipation in a flood control prof.
ect at Kitzmiller; getting priority
with the newly-formed state eco
nomic development commission;
establishment of national park in
the county; construction of an air
port on farm property at Nc
Henry; investigation of the posi-
bility of having the federal govern
ment declare the county a sur
plus labor area" and distress
area"
Stuart F. Hamill, Jr., attorney for
the Board of County Commission
ers, told the board that about 1S
percent of the county's labor force
is out of work He said the 800 resi-
dents of Kitzmiller mining town,
are among those hit worst. The
federal government will give $780,
600 toward a flood wall there when
the local people have 100000 to-
ward it. Hamill said $4,000 is all
that can be raised. This leaves a
$4,000 deficit blocking project
that would provide jobs.
Gov. TawoS said the Board OF
Public Works can make grants
from the states emergency fund
only to state agencies. He sug-
gested the county contact the
Board of Geology, Mines and Water
Resources to see if money for
erosion control is available.
James Rennie, state budget di-
rector, said We've got something
to look into if it's true" that some
coal purchases for state institu.
tons now come from out of state
mines as contended by the Gar.
rett officials. He promised to in.
vestigate.
Comptroller Louis L. Goldsteir
suggested the state might donate
some forest land in Garrett county
for development by the fedora
government as a national park
Hamill said the State Department
of Forests and Parks might OBJ
ject to this idea but Tawes told the
delegation to go ahead and push
the proposal. He said the Board OF
Public Works could extend con
siderable cooperation in this re.
gard"
TaWeS said the State Roads com
mission already is looking into the
possibility of stepping up its pro
gram in Garrett county

Hone Second EeOfeNOne Test
viii PrOUide Fishing FNcfS

In an attempt to make an dc-
curate appraisal of the improve
ment in fishing conditions in Deep
Creek Lake, fish biologists are
planning to once again rotenone
the Hooppole Run area, 50-acre
section of the lake, sometime this
fall, probably shortly after Labor
Day.
The plan was announced this
week by H. j. Elser, fishery BIZ
ologist for the department Of re-
search and education; and Edwin
NJ. Barry, chief of fish management
for the State Game and Inland Fish
commission. Mr.. Elser and Mr..
Barry were in Oakland Monday
comforting with officials of the
Pennsylvania Electric company
and others interested in the prof.
ect.
The Game and Fish commission
is now in its third year of an eX-
detrimental program which fol-
lowed the first rotenoning program
in September, 1855, The commits
sion has experimental with the
placing of great northern pike in
Deep Greek lake, which is termed
a predator fish, in an attempt to
relieve the lake of some of the
many thousands of yellow perch.
1t was declared at that time that
there was an overpOpulatiOn of
the yellow perch which made it
impossible for all of them to OBJ
tain enough food to grow to any
size
MIR. Elser noted that there was
already a marked improvement in
the yellow perch population, since
the introduction of northern pike,
with a corresponding improvement
in size and a decrease in the num-
ber
This biological study of fish con-
ditionS still has two more years to
go but the fish biologists hope that
this second rotenoning will make
it possible to find many answers
to their problems.
On September 7, 1855, the so
acre section of the Lake, known as
Hooppole run was chemically treat
ed with rotenone, a derris root pow
der, killing all the fish in the area.
Size, length, weight and conditions
of the fish were determined and a
program evolved which was
thought best for improving the
fisherman success in the lake. The
rotenone powder suffocated the
fish by constructing tiny blood YES
sells of the gillS. The powder was
not harmful to animals or humans
and the area became fishable
again within four days. The eX-
pertinent created much interest at
the time.
Tagging Program
Mr.. Elser also revealed that a
tagging program was under way.
Tags have been placed on the
lower lip of a number Of species
of fish and they have been released
in various parts of the lake, in an
attempt to find whether or not they
remain in the same general area
or whether or not they move about.
The Game commission is anxious
to determine where these tagged
fish are caught and fishermen
catching these are urged to give
the information to game Wardens
or leave at the promotion council
information booth along Deep
Creek Lake.
