Says Naval Officers
Are Poor Swimmers
BY United Press.)

Washington, July Numerous
last few years, has led the Navy De
partment to adopt new plan for in
ereasing the swimming ability of It's
men. A new form for reports on shiI
inspection has just been issued, Will
space for a report on the pereentag,
of officers and Grow who are able &c
swim five minutes without exhaustion
and how many are able to swim com
pletely around the ship without evi
dence of fatigue.
Swimming has long been included
in the curriculum at the Annapolis
Naval Academy, and great pains are
taken to make the young officers al
home in the water. But the suspie-
ion has been growing lately that few
officers keep III practice. This led the
Academy authorities recently 10 re.
quire Il higher standard of efficiency
in swimming tests of graduates, so
high in fact, that last month several
mdshipmen were refused diplomas be
cause they failed to meet the tests. It
is now proposed TO make the swimming
standard even higher. and to require
officers at sea to keen in practice. AS
yet no specific orders to this end have
been issued, but il is hoped by the
Navy Department that ships pride
will stimulate officers and men to
greater aquatic exercise, in order TO
prevent any bad entry in the inspec.
ton reports.
Another innovation in the inspection
report hits at ships where officers and
men. in their anxiety to lead in the
maintenance Allowance" competitor a
race to see which snip can make a rec
ord for cheap maintenance have per
mtted the vessels fittings or equip
mcnt to deterorate, rather than have
their economy record married by eX-
peusiyc repairs. The new inspection
forms require a report by the inspect
ing officers wh-,ner repairs have been
"unduly spared to the detriment Of the
vessels serViceability."

By Edward FOrbush I'll,


How much longer will the people
of this country continue to offer a
price upon the heads Of useful wild
birds and animals? The fur, plume,
feather and game markets are re-
sponsible for the destruction and ex-
tinction of many valuable forms of
bird and animal life. All that is
necessary to insure the extermina-
'tion of species is to put a liberal
price upon it. 1t will be pursued to
the uttermost parts of the earth
Laws will be broken, the officers of
the law will be evaded or inundated
or in some cases overpowered or
murdered, and the demands of the
market will be supplied so long as
there is a marketable bird or ANNA
left alive. The mother bird on her
nest, the unfedged young, the doe
and her fawn, all are sacrificed to
the greed of gain.
The market hunter is the bane Of
animal life. Where the sportsman
hunts occasionally the pot-hunter
hunts continually 1t is his business
to kill while the game lasts, and to
spare none. He feels that if he with
holds his hand the next pot-hunteI
will not. Market hunting stimulates
the use of devices for capturing game
by wholesale. The snare, the net, the
trap, the battery, the swivel-gun and
all inhuman devices for killing or
capturing large numbers of birds
and animals are used to supply the
market and so long as wild birds can
be sold legally illegal and destructive
methods will be used in procuring
them. The demands of the feather
market are exterminating the most
rare and beautiful birds of the world,
while those of the game market are
extirpating game of all kinds. Mr..
Beebe of the New York Geological
Society, who recently has returned
from an expedition to Asiatic coun-
tries, reports that pheasants of many
species are rapidly approaching ex-
tinction. The rufied grouse or part
ridge of New England and North
America is practically extinct now in
several states. The healthier has
disappeared except on the island of

The modern demand for game is
unlimited. Formerly the market
sometimes was glutted and the de-
mand ceased. Now modern facilities
for cold storage make it possible for
the marketmen to preserve great
quantities of game indefinitely. If
game is to be sold in our markets
let us make laws restricting the sale
to those species which can be raised
on game farms. Otherwise in a few
years our forests, fields and waters
will be depleted of their furred and
feathered inhabitants.

wild game to line the pockets of the
few? The game belongs to the whole
people. The birds are of far greater
benefit to mankind when allowed to
live in the woods and fields and pro-
tect our crops and trees from insect
pests than they can ever be when
hanging mangled and disfigured in
the butchers stall The greatest
benefit that our people can derive
from birds is gained by their living
companionship. If we allow their
destruction the void thus made can
never be filled. Let us act now and
prohibit all sale of wild game for
ever.
