A survey of Pennsylvania waters has shown there are very few at this time but we have assured our support of any program which will he increasing the fishing. The 79th Congress passed a resolution which directed the Fish and Wildlife Service to investigate tlie sea lamprey on the Great Lakes and attempt to control its rapid increase and spread in Great Lakes waters. The resolution also authorized the Fish and Wildlife Service to cooperate with all Great Lakes conservation agencies, with the commercial fishing industry, and with other governmental and private agencies, organizations or individuals having an interest in the fisheries of the Great Lakes. A tentative program was drawn up by John Van Ooslen, Chairman of the Committee, and correspondence has been had with several States interested in the subject. W bile iu>l a great deal has been done up lo tliis tune, you no doubt will be inlereslcd in the following release covering the sea lamprey which was released after the conference at Ann Arbor. 8?.
