NotesThis article gives comments from Andrew J. Naterlin of Newport and Charles Feller of Marshfield on activities of the Oregon legislature affecting the fishing industry. Includes a photograph of A. J. Naterlin. Mr. Naterlin is quoted extensively, including these remarks, “Several good, worthy laws were enacted, such as closing the Salmon River to commercial fishing; placing a size limit on troll-caught salmon; and reverting the oyster beds of Yaquina Bay back to the people. Although the latter law will not have much effect on the oyster situation of Yaquina Bay for a few years, it openly condemns the present method of leasing the entire beds to one individual or company. Such a law will mean the saving of the oysters in Oregon.”
