A T Washington game commission
"a ers and other officials, rep
"a resenting forty-three states,
sA' On" appeared before the senate
committee on forest reservations and
the protection of game in behalf of a
bill providing for federal protection of
migratory birds. Later the same dele
gates made their appeal to the house
committee on agriculture.
Two reasons were advanced for fed
eraI interference i'll this matter of the
protection of birds-(D the failure of
the state to control bird slaughter and
90 the enormous annual loss through
out the United States resulting from
the growth of such insect pests as
Were formerly kept in check by the
now rapidly disappearing birds.
The annual loss TO the country
through insect pests amounts to about
$S00,000.000. This sum would rebuild
and re-endow all the GOO colleges i'll
the United States should they be de-
stroyed in day and leave Il balance
sufficient to endow thirty-two new
universities in the sum of $1O,O0O,0OO
each.
There are 2O,O0O0OO school children
in this country. and the cost of educa-
ton is the heaviest tax laid Oh the
people, yet it costs millions of dollars
more to feed the insect pests than to
educate the children.
This is why state after state is pass
ing laws against pump guns. against
the killing of great numbers of game
birds, against spring shooting, against
the slaughter of all insectivOrOuS and
song birds, against the wearing Of
birds heads and wings as ornaments
and against the continued and pro-
gressive destruction of wild bird life of
almost every description.

DEFENDS MILK STATIONS
Physician Praises Work of Mrs.
Hartman and Nathan Straus.

Before the Finance Committee of the
Board of Aldermen yesterday at its hear
ing on the 1913 budget, DR.. Philip Van
Ingen took exception TO the remarks of
DIT. A. Korn on Friday in attacking the
appropriation for the free milk stations.
In his speech to YOU" said Or. Van
Ingen, who is a specialist on childrens
diseases, "Dr. Korn, representing the
United Taxpayers Association, said that
Mrs. J.. Borden Hartman and other
women interested in charitable work
started milk stations, and when they be-
came a burden turned them over to the
city That is false.
1.-THE city, in 1911. appropriated suffi-
cient funds to maintain fifteen milk sta
lions. The New York Milk Committee
simply offered to cooperate with the city
in maintaining such stations until their
value should be determined.
"Dr. Korn has given you a vivid pict-
ure of women with furs and diamonds,
escorted by nursery maids, making use
Of these stations. He invites you to meet
him any day in Mount Morris Park to see
for yourselves. DR.. Korn does not know
what milk station is. There is no milk
station in Mount Morris Park
