dore G. T opping o f Southam pton, w ere held a t the home, Sanford street, M onday a ftern oon . Mrs. T op ­ping died Sunday, aged eighty-four. She was the oldest m em ber o f the M ethodist Church in Southampton. Besides her husband, she is survived b y a sister, Mrs. M ary Thom pson o f H am pton Bays and a brother, W al­lace A ldrich o f Southam pton.

The South D akota girl w ho at­tem pted to rob a bank o f tw en ty-fou r dollars should have been m ore m ind­fu l o f her professional standing.

Determ ined at a ll costs to prevent the passing o f a “ sportsm an’s ” fish­ing bill and to safeguard their local fishing interests, a grou p o f men prom inent in the eastern L on g Is­land fishing industry w ent to A lbany W ednesday to attend a hearing o f a bill be fore the Senate, which bill, the fishermen believe, w ould be a serious b low to their investm ents on the L on g Island shore. The m en re ­presenting the L on g Island fishing industry w ho jou rn eyed to A lbany today included Captain E. J . Ed­w ards o f East H am pton ; W illiam R. M orse, president o f the T riton Oil & F ertilizer C om pany o f N ew Y ork , w ho m aintains a larg e fish fertilizer fa cto ry at Prom ised L an d ; David Tuthill o f G reen p ort; Captain Wm.S. Downs o f B ay Shore, secretary o f the M iddle A tlantic F isheries A s ­sociation , and oth er m en from the w estern end o f L on g Island.

In substance, this proposed bill w ould m ake it un law fu l f o r anyone to use pound nets, g ill nets, seine or any such sim ilar device in an y o f the w aters a lon g the south shore o f Long Island from a poin t one mile east o f F ire Island Inlet ̂ and extend ing w esterly to the boundary m onum ent betw een the states o f N ew Y ork and N ew Jersey, including all in lets and bays and arms o f any bay within these waters. The bill p roposed , how ­ever, specifically states that the pro­visions shall n ot apply to the use o f hand nets used f o r taking bait fo r the purpose o f angling.

B efore leav ing f o r A lban y one o f the party was indignant over the possibility o f this b ill’ s passage. It w ould m ean, he said, the killing o f the trap fishing industry ou t o f Fire Island Inlet. F isherm en o f Bay Shore, Babylon and Islip w ho have approxim ately h a lf a m illion dollars invested in fishing gea r w ould be “ out o f it .” Men w ho have been fu rn ­ishing the m arkets o f Manhattan with fo o d fish fo r ydars w ould find that their own state had legislated against their carryin g on with the only business that they knew , he con ­cluded.

The catch ing o f m enhadden, which are used fo r fe rtilizer and oil, would also be prohibited i f this bill is pass­ed . There are a num ber o f factories fo r the m anufacture o f fe rtilizer and oil established on eastern L ong Is­land and those interested in them w ould also be very hard hit b y this p roposed m easure. The L on g Island shore is a good loca lity fo r m enhad­den. T hey co llect along shore." going in and out o f the inlets and New Y ork bay, w orking dow n the beach and are abundant around Sandy H ook, B eb ’s Inlet, Jones’ In­let and Fire Island Inlet. Conse­quently, the fisherm en interested in the fe rtilizer and oil industry are very anxious to prevent the passing o f this bill.

“ M enhadden fisherm en,” said one man in this business,- “ seldom catch enough food -fish f o r their own crew s to eat, f o r m enhadden never m ix with food -fish and are n ever caught in the fish traps. The proposed bill is u n fa ir to us fo r we are a catch ing a fish that is n o t o f in terest to the sporting fisherm an.”

M ontauk fishermen - are stron g in their support o f fishermen a lon g the w estern shore o f L on g Island in their fight, fo r they fee l that i f the p ro ­posed bill should becom e a law the boundaries w ould be n ext extended as fa r as M ontauk. The mere thought that trap fishing and purse sein ing m ight be legislated against by the State o f N ew Y ork seem s im possible to men on this end o f L on g Island; fo r generations th eir fath ers be fore them have fished the seas and it is their life .

“ It seem s silly to m e,” stated an I execu tive with one o f the b iggest fishing concbrns on eastern L on g I s - , land indignantly, “ that ou r lawm ak­ers in A lbany w ould consider a bill such as this. I have alw ays thought that a fisherman was about the same as a fa rm e r / on e tilled t h i soil and reaped his harvest there w hile the other brought in his crop from the waters. The farm er supplies fo o d ­stuffs and so does the fisherman.”

“ The proposed bill is u neconom ic as well,” he continued , “ fo r they m ight ju st as w ell restrict the fa rm ­er from raising crops fo r sale as to restrict the fishermen from fishing com m ercially. The fishermen and the public as w ell w ill suffer i f com m er­cia l fishing is prohibited, fo r , evert if a m an has a taste fo r fish, he can ’ t go ou t in the a ftern oon to catch a fish i f he w ants it fo r h is supper that night. Can h e ? ”

The present, clash betw een sports­m en and the m en in the com m ercial business is the first in three y ears ; the professional fishermen defeated the sportsm en three years ago when a bill o f a like nature w as brought up.

Three years ago a sim ilar bill w as | introduced that w ould have had as disastrous an e ffect upon the com ­m ercial fishermen as the proposed bill w ould have, Frank J. Tuthill o f East M arion, and a prom inent figure in L on g Island fishing, m ade the trip to A lbany at that tim e to protest against the bill in person. Tuthill rose to speak, and, as he gained the attention o f his audience, he flourish­ed an A m erican flag b e fo re the as­sem blage. “ Gentlem en,” he said, “ there ’s the flag. M y flag.
