Licenses Must Be Secured for Hunt
ing and Fishing Craft.

Some of the hunters and fishermen
of the eighth naval district, who have
not yet obtained licenses for their
hunting and fishing craft, are going
to be very much disappointed, when
the hunting season opens, to discover
that they will not be allowed to use
their boats.
All boats propelled by sail or ma
chinery are required to have a III
cense to navigate" issued by the
NAVY Department. This license may
be obtained without charge from the
Licensing Office, 215 Godchanx
Building, New Orleans.
Several thousands of licenses have
already been issued in this district
and comparatively few boats now re-
main unlicensed. Patrol boats in the
Gulf of Mexico are already busy
warning sea-going vessels that they
will not be allowed to navigate with,
out the proper licenses, and an lnlana
water patrol will soon be at WORK
rounding up boats not provided with
the necessary papers.
Many boat owners, whose boaes
are not now in active commission,
have paid not attention to the neces-
sity Of applying for licenses, but Wnen
the shooting season opens and tney
desire to move their boats to the
hunting grounds, they will realize
their oversight when q patrol boat de-
mands their license, and ties them up
for want of it.

is increasing public sentiment
throughout the country for big
money gift, running possibly to a
billion dollars, to France in recog-
milton of Frances financial assist
ance in the early days of the Amer
lean republic. Many leading SEN
ators and Representatives have taken
the position that such gift would
be the greatest contribution the
United States could make 20 bring
the war TO a speedy end. They say
that France has been handicapped
through lack of money and that a
gift outright or a loan at an eX-
tremely low rate Of interest or none
at ALL would be Of enormous benefit
to the cause that the United States
now espouses. This. however. is a
matter that is bound TO result in
bitter and prolonged debate and il
is expected that when the PROPOSE
ton finally reaches a legislative
state it will be divorced from every
thing else TO avoid difficulties.
Now that a definite policy of ac-
ton has been outlined there was in
evidence today much better concen-
tration of action. The state, war
and navy departments. the three
branches most vitality concerned,
have been working at top speed for
the last two months to meet the
emergency that now is here. The
navy is. OF course. rushing work
everywhere and the fleet today was
in the position, where the officials
believe il can do its best work in
defending the national interests.

The war department has been

is the greatest problem and will be
the hardest 20 solve. Already the

GUS units of regulars have recon-
