hours passed away in filibustering on
one side or the other.
Thousands of bills were introduced
and thousands more came to the clos
ing session as a heritage from the
hrst and second session. In all, there
are between $4,000 and $4,000 meas
ures before the congress as it now
comes to a close. The failure to
enact many laws was not due to lack
of raw material.
These are some of the more import
ant measures, outside the appropria-
ton bills, that the final session oil
this congress enacted into law:
Providing for forest reserves in thu
Southern Appalachian and White
Mountains,
Providing for the inspection of boil.
ers or locomotives.
Providing for the purchase or erec-
ton of embassies, legations and con-
sular buildings abroad.
An ocean mail bill passed the SEN
ate, but the house did not manifest
enough liking for it to send 1t on 10
the White House.
Barren as the final session may
have been of fruitful legislation, the
republican leaders point to the pre-
ceding sessions as more fruitful.
For the first or extra session, they
point to:
The Payne Aldrich tariff act, with
its maximum and manimum features
and corporation tax provisions, and
its customs court
The resolution providing for an in
come tax amendment to the consti-
tuition.
For the first regular session they
refer to the laws for:
Establishment of postal savings
banks.
Admission of New Mexico and Ari-
iona to statehood.
Inc most extensive census ever
taken.
Creation of the commerce court and
sweeping amendments to the inter
state commerce act.
Ballinger-Pinchot investigation.
Conservative legislation, including
authorization OF withdrawal of public
lands to preserve water sites and au-
thorization of the issue cf twenty mil
lion in bonds for completing irriga-
zion projects.

he white slave trade"
Publicity of campaign contributions
at election of members of the house
Amendment to the employers liza
bility act Of 1908; supplemental safe
ty appliance act; requirement that

Gently without issue at the age OF

AS late as 1877 what Is now known
to have been the last nesting place
of these wild birds was found In the
state of Michigan. where their nests
thickly covered the trees over an
area % miles long and four miles
wide. Residents of New York declare
that in 1850 they fiocked over Manhat-
tan Island In such numbers that thew
obscured the sun ard that ships load
ed in bulk with the bodies OF these
birds lay at the wharves selling them
at cent apiece, Audubon is quoted
as observing roosting place of wild
pigeons in Kentucky early in the last
century that extended 40 miles and
was three miles in width. On It's
edges men with guns, nets. clubs and
torches slaughtered the roosting
birds, each often bagging 500 In one
day.
Declaring that practically all the
gulls and terms in America today have
survived solely through the work of
protection and restoration at their
reservations, leaders Of the National
Association of Audubon societies are
now appealing to the people OF this
country to support the work of pre-
serving dying species of native birds
which they have already begun. The
Upland Plover, Cabot's Tern and the
Least Tern, they assert, can now be
saved to the nation by quick emergen.

are to be raised.
