MERRHT GETS
HOUSE- HEARING

Conn. Bivalves Is to:
Be Discussed in
Washingtbn Jan. 27
Connecticut oyster men will be
given a hearing'hefore the House of
Appropriation committee on Wed-
nesday.AAJnnuary 27. at 10:30 a. in.
during consideration of an item for
studying the diminishing supply of
oysters.
The hearing was granted y the
committee at the request of Rep-
resentative Schuyler Merritt of
Stamford. who interested himself in
the matter when told by Falrtleld
county oyster men that the natural
supply of oysters was decreasing and
that artificial propagation of the bi-
valves has not proved entirely suc-
cessful.
Congressman Merritt took up the
matter with the Bureau of Fisheries,
Department of Commerce. and
learned that there never had been
an appropriation for study of oysc
tort. but that the Bureau had re-
quested 83,000 for this purpose in
the next. appropriation bill. It is
planned to study the natural habits
of oysters. causes of their increase
and decrease. and measures which
might be taken to protect the supply
and to propagate them nrtificaily.
While Mr. Merritt is not an au-
thority on oysters. he will appear in,
support of the a propriation. and
has asked Fairlie County oyster-
men for technical information.
Among those who are expected to be
present and speak at the hearing is
Charles E. Wheeler, manager of the
