Coastal Stream Fish Ban Lifted Portland, Oct. 21 (&) The state game commission revoked a previous order today prohibiting angling in coastal streams and lakes from Oc tober 15 to April 15. The commission said It would again consider at Us February, 1940, meeting "the adoption of an order restricting the fishing or entirely closing all coastal streams to fish ing during a part or all of the winter months as may be deemed neces sary to maintain fishing conditions in such streams." The order was rescinded, the com mission said, because of "several pe titions" asking winter fishing rights and because many anglers "have already purchased licenses with the expectation of fishing during the present winter season." Notice given, it said, was too short. A public hearing will be held be fore action is taken barring winter fishing, the commission added. It asserted the "increasing de mand" was injuriously affecting the supply of trout in coastal streams and It was becoming necessary to increase natural spawning by limit ing the take.
