Shzd And Herring
Catchos Drop CG
In Past Ten Years
The catch of shad and herring in
the rivets and sounds of Northeast
ern North Carolina has declined some
80 per cent during the past 10 years,
W. R. Hampton, chairman of the
North Carolina Board of Conserva
tion and Development, told the House
Fish and Wildlife Subcommittee in
Washington last week.
He spoke at a hearing held on
Congressman Herbert C. Bonner's bill
to authorize the Fislh and WiM.hf

select an individual to serve this com
munity as a chemist. The action fol
lows numerous complaints which have
been made during the past several
yeara, however, to our way of think
ing r&sideiilts of the Town should in
no way exoect miracles immediately
upon the employment of a Town chem
ist. The employment of a chemist is
sought for the purpose of "doing
something" about the water supply
for Hertford. Many local citizens
have been of the opinion that a chem
if t is needed to bring abouit improve
ment of the water here. .
It is our belief that adequate checks
have been made of the water supply
and every health precaution taken for
the protection of local residents.
We agree that our waiter supply
is bad. The situation seemingly has
been worse during the past five to
eight months than at any time in the
past, but we are of the opinion that
the employment of a chemist will not
automatically clear up the situation.
It is almost common knowledge that
our water supply here in Hertford, as
cline in shad and herring catches in
Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds and
tributaries,
Mr. Hampton, reporting that the
decline of catches in one area alone
(Chowan River area) during the past
decade dropped from an annual catch
of over five million pounds to some
thing over one million pounds, listed
three factors which may be causing
the decrease. They were: stream pol
lution, lack of proper protection in
the breeding areas and close-in traw
ler fishing.
He cited two methods of survey to
determine the actual cause or causes
of the condition: a study of the in
gress and egress of the inlets and a
study of pollution in the waters.
The belief that pollution, caused by
industries located on the rivers, was
a major reason was advanced by
Alec Rawls, Rocky Mount sports fish
erman.
The study proposed by Mr. Bon
ner's bill should extend over a period
of at least two years and would cost
an estimated $25,000 to $35,000 an
nually, according to information pre
sented by Mr. Hampton and agreed to
well as other neighboring cni-by. Director of the Fish and
ties, is not ideal and it therefore
stands to reason that it will take
something more than a chemist to
bring a perfect solution to the prob
lem and it is for this reason that we
3ay no miracles should be expected
merely because the town is placing a
graduate chemist on the job to make
daily tests of the water supply.
Headlines May
Fool You!
aaiaaaaaaaeak,
The headlines may convince jittery
Americans that the country is about
to be possesed by the Reds, but let's
not overlook the facts.
"Actually," says the Christian
Science Monitor, "the United States
has less, than 100,000 Communists out
pf 150,000,000 people." Moreover,
"they have neither political authority
nor popular favor."
The same newspaper remarks that
the loyalty boards are non-partisan
and staffed by citizens of unquestion
ed ability and patriotism. After
months of sitting, only 201 of two
million Federal employes were found
suspect by these boards. More than
half have appealed the judgment
against them.
It should not he overlooked that the
P. B. I. is supposed to be the most
efficient professional organization for
discovering disloyalty and catching
spies. Its resources are unlimited
and its information, alt times, un
canny. During the war, it scored
notable success in defeating enemy
sabotage. There is no reason to con
clude that this organization, headed
by J. Edgar Hoover, is less effective
today in its efforts to cope with (those
who would undermine the American
government,
Wildlife Service, Milton C. James.
Congressman Bonner declared that
thedbill was introduced in an effort
to concentrate the study in one area
upon the belief that information gain
ed would be beneficial to aM similar
fishing ground.? along the Atlantic
seaboard.
Introduced on February 8, the bill
would authorize the Fish and Wildlife
Service to make a continuing study
of the decline of shad and herring and
recommend to the state measures
which might arrest the decline and
increase the catches.
Mr. Bonner early this year discon
tinued efforts to re-open the Fish
Hatchery at Edenton after being ad
vised by the Fish and Wildlife Ser
vice that artificial propagation was
not the answer to the problem.

Impatient With
American Processes
There has developed among the
American people an impatience with
constitutional processes, declares Pro
fessor Allison Reppy, of the School of
Law of New York University, who
says that the people have found the
processes too slow and not accommo
dated to the demands of modern life.
There is not much reason to doubt
the accuracy of the professor's diag
nosis or his remark that specific pro
visions of the Constitution have been
expanded by interpretation of "ju
dicial legislation" out of their original
:; meanings. A";-;--'-:.
The people of this country, hearing
mucn about the democratic processes
,; and not understanding the representa
tive form of government established In
this country, have become impatient
with "results' and, very often, ap
plaud the statesman in office or the
politician who overrides the law in or
der to "do something" for the people.
The courts have naturally tended to
expand their own power and to use
"judicial legislation" as a way to
make the laws, as passed, fa jin with
the ideas ofwhat Wie Judges think
they should be. Both processes are
