The lead in the movement here was taken by William F. Hoyt and Edward F‘. Hulbort, thb later of the Banishipt Oyster System, incorporated. The lat- ter continues as president of the tem- porary organization and Mr. Hoyt as secretary. It had been tentatively planned to perfect the organisation last evening, but it was decided to postpone this detail for a short time. in the meantime an effort. is being made to get every oyster ground owner into the movement and there is little it]. Mr. Hulbert addressed the asthma lag last oveningand explained the pro. gram laid out by the plans committee which was appointed last week. in line with the program of purity, . it is proposed to have a sanitary sur. vey made of the local waters and have the stock subjected to laboratory test by some well-known concern in this line of business. Personally, Mr. Hul- ‘ .bert was in favor of the laden-1y Labor. stories, of New York, whose reputa- tion as sanitary engineers, is a very wide one and a concern whose deduct tions are accepted as authoritative by ' the government. , The bureau of chemistry has no de- ilure to carry on a course of persecu» » Iilon against. the oyatcrlncn. That the efforts of the Norwalk dealers to com- ply with tha pure food laws will be taken coxninnce of, there is no doubt. .lt will be appreciated that the dealers want to observe the law. in the event. , too, of a clash between the dealers and the government findings. the dealers will have something of value if they can produce the results of laboratory tests of their stock. There seemed to be a general feeling in favor of ac- cording the suggestion of Mr. Hulbert to secure such a high-class concern as the Lederle people. This will be pos- alblc because of the efforts of Mr. Hui- bcrt. The Scalshlpt Oyster System. incorporated. have an exclusive con tract with the llederlc inimratories and have spent many thousands of dol- lars with them for tests of stock and oyster grounds, but Mr. Hulbert in- ducod the Scalshipl System's board of directors to avail the Norwalk Deal~ ers' association of the privilege of the tests of the Liederle laboratories. Not only will-these tests hc of great value in determining the condition of the stock in all of the adjacent waters. but il will be a positive asset to be able to advertise the fact that the Nor walk district oysters are given a clean bill of health by the concern mention- ed. There is no doubt on this score for illilllillllf’irl are so familiar Willi pure regulations these days that they want to kilos about the products they are built: Mr. liulbert doubted that the Seals ipt people will grant the sunn- concession to other oysiermcn than those in thc Norwalk district. it seemed to be the collccllsua of opinion last evening that at the outset ii is best to confine the local organise» ion to growers owning grounds be tween llnrlcn on lllc west and West port on the cast. if it is found to be a desirable or advantageous move, the limits will be extended. it is hoped that the ornanlzcd effort in the Nor- waik district will also result in oys- tarlucu‘s asstlclations being formed in the Bridgeport.
