A biaser ami much more valuable
,wo,tort under consideration is the
opening of Nays H?ad Inlet, which
would probably cost a million and a
half, since the Croatan Sound w? uld
have to be dammed, but this would
iiioan. not only, salt water at Kden
toiv. but.the far more valuable a*?*et.|
a return of fishing prosperity. ?ucli
sis was known 50 or more years auo.
It is estimated that if Naus Head
li'.b-t were opened the revenue *rom
*had fish in*- in these waters, al la>t
>tar's prices, would mean about a
r.iillion dollars per annum, and since
Mbemarle Sound and the l*oto'iiac
are now about the only sullable wat-;
ers for the tishim: for shad and her
rinu. since other large bodies had
been contaminated by shipping and
luannlacturiiip plants.
Another great influence h"lnt:
Krou^lit to hear urulnu the op< nln;'
i?t Nairs /H? ad Inlet is from the In
ternational I'i lots' Association. a
most influential body of ri.noti or
?nrote skippers, who demand some I
hnrhor **f refuse south of Hatleras.
All these things point to the reas
onableness of our demand for Naus
llead Ilihl beliiK Opened and the
chambers of commerce of Kdenion.
Hertford. Klizahcth City and every
o?h?-r organization of representative
citizens, as well as individuals,
should take immediate action, with
petitions and representations to i|ie
l-'isb Commission setting forth this
?-rent need.
It ii were bnt the flshinu Industry
alone that benefitted from the open*
iiiw of an inlet at Naus Head the vol
ume of business demands this **ork
h.ins done, and in this connection it
should be remembered that shad is
c:niuht in these waters durinu I ? nt.
when the people of the count r> re
quire this food, which Ihe present
supply does not in any sense accom
modate.
There will be a (heeling of the!
chamber of cominern called here
Immejtllalely after Christmas, and
i-1? ? c bodies will be urued to takej
similar action. In the meantime ey |
? ry person should* be considering |
this matter so that when the time,,
comes si uii:antlc jiet.ition may be.
signed reaily to present to the Fish
Commission for consideration on
January ,1 next.
