and the total decrease of annual rent-l
als in less than seven years amounts
to over 880.400. leaving an annual.
rental of 855.000, in place of 8136.000
annual rental save nyears ago. Mr.
Round in his statement also shows
that there was a shrinkage of over 75
per cent in the volume of product of
oysters in six years. While the loss
of revenue in Rhode island alone will
amount in 10 years to over 880.0000.
this loss is of trifling importance com-
pared with the destruction of a great
food producing industry.
“In Connecticut the decrease in
volume of product has been in great- l
er proportion: in fact. the develop-
ment and late decline of the industry
preceded that in Rhode island. it is

crease of revenue from this
try. He afterwards explained to
mmittee of the Connecticut legis-
ure that he did this because at a
[banquet at which some of the officials
of «Rhode island were present. he
learned that Rhodc- island received
much more revenue per acre from her
oyster grounds than did Connecticut.
His superficial investigation did not
extend to the primary fact that in
Rhode island the slate owns the oys-
ter grounds, whereas in Connecticut
the state has sold the grounds over
thirty years before and natumlly
should not expect, as much revenue
from what the State does not own as
Rhode island might expect from the
grounds which she owns and leased
to planters.
“His message urged that Connecti-
cut follow the policy of Rhode Island
in exacting a heavy direct revenue on
oysten grounds. That policy he;
proved ruinous to the industry in both
states. As man' of the Connecticut
politicians kno that the oyster grow-
ers of Connecticut had but few votes
with which to defend their interests.l
