To Stop Pot Hunting.

Senator Mudd has prepared a bill
which concerns hunters for game for
commercial purposes. 1t prohibits the
sale within or without the State of
cartridges, pheasants and woodcock
killed or otherwise taken within the
boundaries of this State. The measure
is along the lines of the New York
game law and has for its object the
breaking up Of pot hunting and the
preservation of game birds. There is
no interference with shooting by
sportsmen in season.
Unless some such law is passed"
said the senator. these game birds
will be exterminated. Already there
is a scarcity caused by the slaughter
by pot hunters who sell their feathery
victims here and elsewhere"
The law is to apply throughout the
State and at all times.

TO GIVE AWAY

DR.. Howard A. Kelly Agrees to

Plea For Withdrawal OF

Washington, D. CDR Howard A.
Kelly, of Baltimore, the cancer expert
and eminent surgeon, found an ardent
defender in Secretary of Interior
Franklin X. Lane, who appeared be-
fore the House Committee on Mines
and Mining to urge legislation to
break up the "radium MONOPOLY" so
that as much of the precious metal as
possible may be distributed in trust
worthy hands for the warfare on
cancer.
Il do not see," said Secretary Lane
to the committee, why DR.. Kelly, Of
Baltimore, and DR.. Douglass, of New
York, should be subjected to so much
criticism regarding their efforts to get
more radium for medical use in this
country. They are two distinguished
and high-minded men. They are
working for the sole purpose of getting
a sufficient supply of radium for the
benefit of mankind. Dr. Kelly is known
to you. DR.. Douglass is millionaire
and distinguished chemist. He is
the former president of the Ell Paso
and Southern Railroad"
Will Turn Over Plant.
Congressman Taylor, OF Colorado,
who is combating the Lane proposition
for the withdrawal from public entry
OF radium-ore lands, said he wished it
understood that he had never criticised
DR.. Kelly and DR.. Douglass.
Secretary Lane, in the course of his
argument, told of the offer of DR.. Kelly
and DR.. Douglass to turn over to the
Government the plant they are con-
structing at Denver for the extraction
Of radium from ore. Continuing, he
said:
This plant will be completed in
February. 1t cost about $150,OOO. DR..
Kelly and DR.. Douglass will turn the
plant over to us so that we can use il
to experiment with our process for the
extraction of radium from carnotite
ore. We have process which we be-
Heve will work. We will use DR..
Kelly's plant in which to make our ex-
periments, and it will be done with DR..
Kelly's and DR.. Douglass money.
Or. Kelly and DR.. Douglass have a
contract with the Crucible Steel Com.
pany to furnish them the radium- bear.
ing ore upon which we will try our ex-
tracing process. We will use their
ore also, and have agreed to give them
the first seven grams of radium and
the rest shall be ours"
What do you propose to do with
this radium after it falls into the Gov.
ernment's hands?" Secretary Lane was
asked
my idea" he replied, lis to turn
some of the radium over to the Gov
