What's Going On in

THE 8TATE-8 LARGE PLAN8.
Uncle Sam and Commissioner
Hoover will have a local ally in the
campaign for conservation of food,
which, if present plans' mature, will
give to the people of the United States
seafood in such quantities as hereto
fore only dreamed of.
The State Conservation Commission
raised the Aag of Maryland over two
new plants, which have been secured
for the propagation of Ash to be dis
tributed in the Bay and tributaries and
mountain streams of the state. Wil
liam H. Kllllan, secretary of the com
mission, closed a deal for a houseboat
used for a number of years on the Bay
and known as the "Floating Theater."
The boat Is 75 feet long, with a 20
foot beam, and is peculiarly adopted
for the work for which it Is Intended.
On this boat the Conservation Commis
sion hopes to turn out shad, perch and
herring in endless quantities. In addi
tion an attempt Is to be made to propa
gate rockflsh. Little or any effort has
heretofore ever been made to cultivate
thla delicious member of the finny
tribe, and It is thought that the Chesa
peake Bay and tributaries will receive
in the spring thousands of these small
Ash to be turned loose for propagation.
The second plant is to be located
at the foot of the Catoctln Mountains,
near Llttlestown, Frederick county,
and will be both a hatchery and pond
plant There are already some 15
ponds covering from half to one acre
of water area.
At this plant It is proposed to pro
dues trout, bass, catflah, crapple, blue
gills and bream. These three latter
species are practically unknown to the
commercial fish markets In this state,
but are excellent food Ash. They are
to be distributed into fresh-water
streams, and as each of these species
are Ash thnt readily take the hook and
line, it will mean not only furnishing
many pounds of food to the country
generally, but will furnish devotees of
the angling sport an unusual opportun
ity to ply their art.

Censorship Tower Complete. "
' The Censorship Hoard I entrusted with
the "censorship of communication by mall,

foreign country from time to time specified
by the President, or carried by any Teasel
or other means of transportation touching
at any port, place or territory of tbe United
States and bouud to or from any foreign
country."
Among the most Important and far-reaching
of the provisions of the enemy act, says
an offlclul statement explaining the law,
"are those dealing with the taking over by
this Government of tbe custody and control
of 'enemy' property within tbe Uulted
Slutcs.
"The property affected by these provis
ion Is that which I located In the United
State and belongs to any person or cor
poration that Is an 'enemy' or ally of
enemy' within the definition of the act re
ferred to above, except those licensed to
continue doing business In the Uulted
States. German subjects and the subjects
nf her allies resident In the United 8tte
do not, from the mere fact of their na
tionality, full within these definition. The
act make It tbe duty of every concern
within the United States Issuing aharse of
stock within 00 day after the approval of
the act to report to the Allen Prorierty
Custodian the names of such of It officer,
directors and stockholder a are known
to be or reasonably believed to be 'enemies'
or 'allies of enemy,' and tbe amount of etock
or abarea owned by each,
Taba Ob AU Enemy Business,
"Tha act provide In addition, under
severe penalties, that every person In tb
United States holding a property for an
enemy' or 'ally of enemy,' oaXor any per
son whom he may bave reasonable causa to
believe to be an 'enemy' or 'ally of enemy'
must report the fact to the Allen Property
Custodian within SO days after tbe passags
of the act So alao any person In tha
United Btates Indebted In any way to an
enemy' or 'ally of enemy,' or to a person
whom be may bave reasonable cause to
believe to be an 'enemy' or 'ally of enemy,"
must make a An I lor report."'
The Alien Property Custodian msy re
quire a transfer to himself of any prop
erty beld for or debt owed to an euemy or
enemy ally, and any person so holding any
property or so owing any money may
transfer such property or pay aucb money
to the custodian with bl consent.
Property or money transferred to the
Allen Property Custodian will he beld until
the end of tbe war and then dealt with as
Congress shall direct. All funds 'or ready
money may be Invested In Liberty bonds
and beld In such form.
The President has delegated to the Attorney-General
the power to direct the pay
ment nf claims against enemy property In
the hands of the custodian, upon tbe con
sent of all person Interested.
Tbe definition of an "enemy" or "ally
of enemy" I explicit. Any person regard
less of nationality, who resides within the
territory of the German Empire or the terrl-,
lory of any of Its allies, or that occupied
by tbetr inilttnry force 1 expressly made
mi "enemy" or "ally of enemy" by the act
Even rltlieua nf tbe United States remain
ing within such territory are regarded a
"enenilea" or "allies of an enemy."
An "enemy" or "ally of enemy" doing
business within the United States before
November S may apply for a license to con
tinue to do business In the United States.
Some Allen Exempt.
"Tbe main application of these provi
sions," the official itatemeut says, "will
be to German or ally of (leruinn concern
which are doing business lu the United
States through branch house or agent of
such Insurance or reinsurance companies.
Such an 'euemy or 'ally of enemy may can
tlnue to do business within the United
States until such application are acted
upon.
The license provisions of the act do not
apply to Germans, Anatrlans, Turks, or
Hulgnrlans doing business In the United
States and having no business connections
with Interests actually operating In Germany
or her allied countries. Thus, thousand
of alien enemies having small business es
tabllahmeuts in the Uulted States need not
apply for license to continue operation nn
less they have dealing with companies bnv
lug connections In "enemy" or "ally of
enemy" territory. The act authorises tha
President to declare all these alien enemies
suhjet to license regulations, but has not
extended the provisions to these person by
bl order.
