WASHINGTON. Dee. 21.—The most se
rious condition now confronting the
American fishing industry la the failure
of the states to afford adequate protec
tion to migratory fishes In state and in-
terstato waters.
This Is the serious noto of warning by
George M. Bowers. United States fish
commissioner. In his annual report made
public today. Mr. Bowers states that the
fishes most In need of consideration are
the shad, the striped bass, and the stur
geon on the Atlantic coast and the eal-
mon In the Pacific states.
The disappearance of the sturgeon from
nearly every coast river. Mr. Bowers
states, “shows how greed and indifference
may In a single generation destroy a val
uable fishery.” North Carolina stands
out as the only state among all the states
in which the bureau engages in the cul
tivation of shad, where*the general de
cline of this fishery has been arrested.
“The immediate effect of sensible pro
tection measures in this state,” says
the commissioner, “shows the results that
may be expected from similar legislation
for the various Important streams, like

NEGUOES TAKEN AWAY
MRS. SMITH REPORTED UNCON
SCIOUS AND IN A VERY CRITI
CAL CONDITION.
Late yesterday afternoon, Mr. J.
Blalock, of the Central baggage room,
kinsman of Mrs. Archie Smith, the lady
who was so badly, hurt by Sam Moreland,
tho negro chauffeur on Sunday afternoon,
had a telephone message from the family
at Jonesboro saylug that Mrs. Smith -was
still unconscious, and that her condition
was critical '**’* ■’•* ”
It was reported In tho morning that
she was dead, but messages from Jones*
boro proved to thjTbontrary.
At 4 o'clock yesterday morning Sheriff
Brown, of Clayton county, called for his
prisoners at the jail and carried them
away, presumably to Atlanta..
Slater, the Atlanta' negro, who was In
tho automobile at the time of the acci
dent, did not want to go at all, but ho
saw that It was not a. matter that he
could decide. He is regarded only as a
Witness, and ho said on leaving the*Jail
that he was Just in the car when the
lady was hurt, and that It was Moreland
who had the steering wheel. He was
very much troubled over tho affair, and
was. afraid to be taken back to Jones*
boro. ' " ’
Moreland had nothing to say. and had
the a!t* or a man wild didn’t care. If ho
cared he did not make it known. He evi
dently believed that he would be taken
care of, probably by his employer, Mr.
Ben L. Jones, but Mr. Jones was cm-
pjiatic In saying that ho would not do
anything for him, mid that lie must get
out of the trouble the best he could.
This Is Worth Reading.

SALVATION ARMY DOING GOOD
RELIEF WORK AMONG
THE POOR.
Word reached Capt. Coleman of the
Salvation Army, of tho destltuto con
dition of a family In East Macon. The
children had been sick with typhoid
r. and there was nothing to eat
in the house.
There was a hurried visit to ascer
tain what the needs of the family were
and those learned thero was a load of
the things wanted and happiness ruled
tho household.
Frequently such 'cases get to the
army that reaches no others. The
army works amid the poorer class, In
the slums and the mudsills, and their
work Is principally among those who
live on the seamy side. iBut no mat
ter where the cry of d!stress comes
from, there Is always a ready response.
In this way they are doing a great
deal of good that the general public
‘ n*er hears of..
They are now getting ready to give
their annual Christmas dinner to the
poor, and as they depend entirely on
the good people for the .means, they
are asking for contributions so that
the dinner will go a long way toward
satisfying a large number of people
who can not help themselves.
