form of compulsion in such recruiting,

Follows PrlorItIes Board.

1.-THE power to determine priority
among industries and to close up non
essential Industries by shutting off
supplies, rests with the war industries
board. The United states employment
service will follow the priority de-
termined by the priorities board Of
the war industries board.
1T is within the province OF each
community labor board to list those
non-war industries IN its community
which will first be called upo-. to con-
tribute men TO war work.
This does not mean that such In
dustries will be compelled to close up
or to discharge their male employees
at once, but that with as much fair
ness as is possible and with as much
speed as may be necessary to meet
the national emergency they will re-
lease male workers"
1t is obviously wrong, the report
explains, to have able bodied men con-
tinuing to sell candy, cigars, and SINH
lar articles, to be doing work in shops
and stores which might, with reason
able effort on the part OF the en-
ployers, be entrusted to women, and
to De attendants in clubs, barber
shops, soft drink estaolishme nts,
bowling alleys. dancing academies,
and elsewhere.
Moreover, every owner of an auto
mobile should realize that every time
he spendr SIS for automobile accessor-
les, supplies, or repairs he is, in eff
feet, determining whether working en-
ergies Of the country equivalent to
about a days labor of one man shall
be devoted to winning the war or to
his own personal uses"

HUNTERS MUST
OBSERVE Law
Now Necessary That They
Know Federal as Well
as State Laws
PUNISHMENTS
ARE SEVERE

In making plans TO shoot migratory
waterfowl, hunters will do well TO note
the dates OF open seasons under both
Federal and state laws. This caution
by the United States Department OF
Agriculture results from evidence Of
confusion in the minds OF some sports
men in regard TO the opening OF The
season when the dates conflict under
State and Federal laws.
The Federal law and regulations
limit tho seasons before and after
which no one may shoot these birds.
II a Stite law opens the season later
or closes II earlier than the dates pre-
scribed by the Federal regulation, the
season in that State Is just so much
further shortened. Special attention Is
called 20 the fact that the Federal reg
ulations do not authorize anyone TO
hunt or kill migratory birds contrary
10 the State law.
In certain States, as for example,
Illinois. Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ken
tucky, Missouri and South Dakota, the
season for shooting migratory water
fowl under the State law would open
prior TO the date Of opening under the
Federal regulations were ii not for the
fact that the Federal regulations super
sede state laws in such case Of conflict.
Under the migratory bird treaty act
regulations it Is lawful 30 hunt water
fowl except wood ducks, elder ducks
end swans, for which there is no open
season.. rail coot. gallinules, Wilson
snipe or jacksnipe black-bellied and
golden plovers, yellOwless, woo1cOck
and mourning OF white-winged doves
during the open season prescribed by
the regulations. The several States,
however, are authorized under the
treaty oct still further 10 protect mi
gratory birds.
Under the treaty act and regulations
the sale OF all migratory birds, other
than propogated waterfowl is pro-
hiblted throughout the United States
except for scientific or propagating
purposes.
Maximum bag limits are also pre-
scribed and, when permitted by State
law, two days limit OF migratory birds
may be shipp(i or transported from one
State TO another IN a calendar week.

themselves with the provisions OF the
new act and regulations. copies OF
