"l'nless we give the Pollution Bill
coming up at Hartford our active
support we are lost." he said. "\Ve
oyster-men will be most thankful for
anything. the Board of Trade can do
—but if we don‘t do anything. gen»
tlomcn. I warn that the oyster induso
try In Norwalk will be a. thing of the
past within two years."

Following his plea. for support the
Norwalk Board of Trade formally
passed a. resolution to support the
Pollution measure. and to notify the
representatives of this district. of the
decision. Mr. Decker was also given
authority to represent the Andy and
attend the hearing at Hartford.

matters. The reports of the com.
mliiecs were heard. and twelve new
members reported. Charles H. Hoyt
