My Dear Sir:
Yours of Feb. 24 received.
the State of Alabama has made great
progress since the enactment of her
laws for the propogation, improvement
and development of her oyster beds
and the sea food products of the wa-
ters of Alabama. We have had to
grapple with many problems. Of
course. like all other States, we have
met with obstructions in undertaking
to enforce the law. We have had to
grapple with many problems from the
propagation, artificial culture and
methods of handling the oysters. also
endeavorlng to have our merchants
to ‘be modern and up-todate. The
States that have enacted progressive,
wise laws for the propagation and
preservation of their oysters and sea
food «products, have added materially:
to the wealth of the people of the va-
rious Slates. Take, for example. the
