hunters who go pot hunting and
violate the law regarding size of bags
or attempt to sell game will be prose-
cuted. All of the game wardens have

of State police. foresters and fish war
dens will lbe extended in arresting vio-
lators. A special watch will be kept
on hunters who kill their limit in one
county and then go into another after

Auditor Generals department declined

not stand a very glittering chance of
collecting any of the money. The dis

that the whole matter of recovering
money paid to coal dealers is one for
the persons who paid it and not for
the State at all.
