These figures include all such enforcement actions by the price agency against potato ceiling price violators through the week of May 10, the latest date for which com plete figures are available. OPS has discovered some of the devices employed during world war II to evade potato price regulation. Tot instance, say price officials, a restaurant '?wiwr In Roanoke, V?? bought a sack of potatoes and dumped them into his peeling and slicing machine. The rocks placed in the sack with the potatoes prac tically wrecked the equipment. Also, there have been numbers of instances in which dealers have sold seed potatoes as table stock, charging over-ceiling prices in the belief that seed stock was not un der ceilings.

Present to hear complaints of the fisher men, most of them shrimpers, were Mrs. Roland McClamroch, chair man of the commercial fisheries committee, and Charles S. Allen of Durham. Absent were Fred P. Latham of Belhaven, Charles H. Jenkins of Aulander, and Dr. C. Sylvester Green of Chapel Hill. The hearing was scheduled by the commercial fisheries commit tee at the request of shrimpers. When the chairman announced there was not a quorum, Rep. T. J. Collier of Pamlico county asked if it was not the committee's intent to take action when the meeting was called. Mrs. McClamroch said the com mittee had hoped it would be able to take action. Then she said all members of the committee would be given copies of proceedings of the hearing. Fishermen of the county had as sembled to protest the night shrimping regulation extending from May IS to July 1 only and after July 1, day shrimping only. The fishermen were seeking the right to fish night and day. W. A. Ellison, jr., Morehead City, director of the Institute of Fisheries Research, University of North Carolina, commented that the spotted shrimp feeds knd ?loves at night and for that rea son fisheries scientists recommend ed that night shrimping be per mitted purely for economic rea sons. ? Director Ellison commented last week that it was not suggested that night shrimping carry with It prohibition of day shrimping. >en who make a study ol shrimp habits and migrations contend thai shrimpers should be allowed to take shrimp at night while spotted shrimp are available. The run dis appears about July. Up to that time, however, day time shrimp trawling yields prac . ? tically nothing, and fisheries scien- I lists contend that shrimpers will i not waste their gasoline and ener gy going after shrimp in the day- i time U the operation is not profit- ( able. I*hey maintain that daytime i shrimping, however, should not be prohibited. < In the two-hour session at Bay boro dealers expressed their pref erence for unlimited shrimping season ? night and day? and no limitation at all. ' The dealers' spokesman waa E. H. Holton of ] Vandemere. Most of. the shrimpers expressed themselves as favoring daytime shrimping only, while others tided with the dealers in unlimited sea ?ona. Former Sheriff E. S. Lupton of Whortonaville led the arguments for the daytime shrimping pro ponents and suggested the time be limited from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. daily. Will Kigga of Oriental, who in troduced hlraaelf at "the most ig norant, crniest and oldest shrimp er here," asked Mrs. HcClamroch: "Why do you adopt laws you can't enforce?" Mrs. McCUmroch's answer was drowned out with laughter from the crowd. George 8. Ross, state director of the Board of Conservation and De velopment, of which the fiaheries committee la a part, told the crowd he had hoped he could promote the welfare of fisherman.
