conclusions reached at the former
hearing" where the act was found UNI
constitutional. The case may be ap-
pealed to the supreme court.
The decision upholds the views OF
many local nimrods who rebelled
against the provisions in regard to
closed seasons on the Mississippi on
ducks and other wild fowl.
There was a great deal of opposi'
ton to the regulations made by the
federal authorities under this act by
Mississippi river sportsmen In Iowa
and Illinois at the time they were
promulgated. 1t cut them on nom
practically all spring shooting while
their state licenses expressly gave
them privilege. Most sportsmen agree
that the provisions are wise In an Ell
forts to conserve our wild fowls. but
they objected to the apparent unfair
ness in disregarding their rights that
they had already paid for. Whether
the ruling will have the effect OF IN
creasing the spring shooting is hard
to tell. Some changes are expected
in the federal regulation before an
other year and the Objectionable fea-
lures may be removed by that time.
