nying the assessment it is important
TO have it acknowledged.

1t seems that there is not unanimity
among the standpatters over the pro-
gram to buy $4,000 worth of pheas-
ants, as proposed by Governor Carroll,
out of the license money of the hunt
ers. Carroll had. up to the time OF the
opening of the campaign, insisted that
none of the money should be used as
| provided by law: then after the hunt
ers of the state had opened fire he had
| ii given out that the money would be
invested in pheasants. Dave Brans
for one, opposes this scheme and says
| it would be needless spending Of a
vast sum of money provided by
thoughtles. bit of freak legislation"
This is pretty hard on Governor Car
roll. who is now claiming the entire
credit for the aforesaid legislation. on
the other hand il is being told on the
side that as soon a the primary is

abandoning even tine pheasant pro-
