Fisheries Commissioner Explains Department Operations to Speakers C. Gerhrmann Holland assistant I is he nes commissioner. recently spoke ip Raleigh, explaining the functions of lb* commercial fish erie? division. He yim one of seven depart mental beads of the Board of Con servation and Development to ex plain (unctions ot their depart meats to members of a recently formed P4>D Speakers Bureau The text of Commissioner Hol land's talk follows: The Division of Commercial fisheries, one of the units of our state government, located in More head City has a wel| thought out program. To us is charged the pro jection of the state's marine re sources which consist of aquatic plants and animals. It is our re sponsibility to protect, safeguard and promote the sources of liveli hood of sortie 35.000 fishermen and their families in the 21 coaslal counties and at the same time to protect and safeguard the interest of the citizens of the entire State of North Carolina all of whom have the same equity in our natural resources as do the fishermen themselves. Laws Not Enough I have only been connected with this department approximately two months, but I have been with the seafood industry all my life. Some times mere laws are not sufficient, particularly where there has been a serious over-harvesting of a fish ery. This has happened in the case of the oyster and it is neces sary in this instance not only to protect whatis there but to take steps to relflfeilitate our old oyster beds and to make three oysters grow where we get one now. Oyster spat or the larva oyster needs to attach itself to something at a very early stage in its life or it will die. One of the best ma terials for this to attach is oyster shell itself. Each year the state collects oyster shells from the sfiuckers, who are required by law to return half of their shells to the state which plant them in thp oyster procjucing areas. We then close the beds for three years, the normal time required for oysters to grow marketable size. Young spat settle on the oyster shells and grow to mature oysters. We have this year a striking ex ample of what can be done in this respect. Three years ago the state planted 50,000 bushels of oyster shells in Shell Bay. The area was closed and guarded. In December 1953 the beds were opened to the public. During the first three days of ' dredglnfe, 10,000 bushels of oysters were removed. This bed will produce a normal supply of oysters for the remainder of this year. During 1953 the state plant ed 120,000 bushels of oyster shells which should give about the same unit returns as the Shell Bay plant. Shrimp Harvest Large The harvest of shrimp for 1953 was tremendous and we would benefit greatly if we would in North Carolina process this deli cious seafood product into breaded Saturday, Jan. 30, Is Deadline for Getting Tags The deadline for getting state license tags is Jan. 30, next Satur day. To date 3,363 tags have been sold in Carteret County. This total is broken down as fol lows: 2,729 auto, three motorcycle, 389 private truck, 66 farm truck, 168 Class Z trailer, and 28 Class C trailer. Class Z trailers are those having two wheela and Class C trailers are those having four. Approximately 4,000 tags were sold in the county last year. It is estimated that at least 700 have to get their tags before the deadline. Prisoner In a Rut PitUfield. Mass. (AP) ? It may have set a time-record recently for arrests on the same charge.
