PLEADS FOR GAME PRESERVE
Naturalist Says Arkansas Needs State
Farm to Protect Wild Life.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Little Rockville establishment of
a game preserve in Arkansas and the
enactment of statewide laws for the
protection of the wild life of the state
We're urged by E. A. Mclllhenny, A
naturalist of national reputation, in an
address delivered a. the Pulaski coun-
tv fair. Mr.. McIllhenny illustrated his
lecture with several hundred slides
showing scenes on the Louisiana game
preserve, embracing $4,000 acres, at
Avery Island, La, of which he is the
owner
"A statewide law for the preserva-
ton of the wild life of Arkansas is the
thing to insist on. declared Mr.. Me.
lllhenny. Community laws are no
real good in protecting birds. in which
this state is perhaps the richest in the
Union. Let everyone get together and
insist on the legislature passing laws
that will result in the establishment O.
a game preserve in Arkansas.
With a game farm in Arkansas the
Middle West will be given a chain of
preserves from the southern boundary

RATE CASES TO BE PUSHED
Railroad Commission Will Use Money
Recovered From Roads.

Little Rock-The Arkansas Rail
road Commission will be able to prose
cute further the eases against the rail
roads, in, diving the two=eent passenger
rate and the reduced freight rates pGt
into effect by the commission, as Il
result of a decision by Attorney Gen
eral Moose that the commission can
use for this purpose the $4,000 in
court costs which was returned to the
commission when final decision was
rendered recently by the United States
Supreme Court against the Iron Noun
tain ard Cotton Belt railroads.
Pending the decision by the supreme
court in these cases, the suits against
the Rock Island, Kansas City Southern
and other roads were allowed to rest
in the lower courts and the case
against the Missouri & North Arkan-
sas railroad WAS taken to the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals. II
is for the purpose of prosecuting these
cases that the commission will use the
money recently returned. Attorney
General Moose held that as this money
is nart of the So 800 originally appro-
priated by the legislature for the prose
cution Of these suits, the people would
prefer that 1t be used for the further
prosecution of the cases, rather than
turned back into the state treasury.

HULDS STATE LAW INVALID
Act Fixing TeIeqrsphers' Hours lnop-
erative, Says Attorney General,

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Little Rock.-Attempts to enforce
the Arkansas law governing the hours
of work for telephone and telegraph
operators probably will be dropped by
J. c. Clary, commissioner of the Blu
reau of Labor and Statistics. Attorney
General w L. Moose has given an
opinion which sets forth that recent
decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States, involving the act of
Congress intended to govern hours OF
operators, renders the Arkansas act in
effective, although the numbers of
hours specified in the state law is less
than the number specified in the act
of Congress.
The matter was brought to the at
tention of the state officials several
weeks ago, when reports were received
by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics
that telegraph operators on several
lines of railway in Arkansas are fore
ed to work longer than the state law
prescribes. An investigation of the
cases reported showed that the com
plants were not without foundation,
it is said and the attorney general
was sought for an opinion concerning
the effectiveness of the Arkansas law
In this opinion, Mr. Moose holds that
the federal law specifies the number
of hours of labor and that the state
law could not fix different schedule

OF STATE CAPITAL
UNLICENSED COMPANIES CAN
SELL STOCK IN ARKANSAS
BY MAIL.
NOT HIT BY BLUE SKY" LAW
ATTORNEY General Holds Person Max
ing Deiivery-of Securities Already
Sold Is Not Agent.


Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Little Rock.-There is nothing in
the blue sky law enacted by the last
Arkansas legislature to prevent stock
from being sold by mail by companies
not authorized to sell stock in Arkan-
sas, according to an opinion given by
Attorney General Moose to John NJ,
Davis, state bank examiner.
The attorney general holds that
when negotiations for the sale o.
stock are carried on by mail and the
agreement for the transfer OF stock
is made by mail, the stock may be
sent to bank or person in the state,
with draft attached, with instructions
to deliver the stock upon payment OF
the draft by the purchaser. He holds
that the bank or person making the
delivery in such case is not the agent
OF the seller and that the transaction
does not violate the law of the state,
as the sale has taken place beyond the
limits of the state.
