C0mmercidIism is Roof of
the Evils of Game Laws

All persons who are interested in the
conservation Of the resources OF wild
birds and game should know that there
is nothing more harmful than to
legalize the sale Of game.
Commercialism is the root Of all the
evils or game laws II the birds and
game can legally be converted into
cold cash" there is absolutely no
benefit in enactlng other features for
their preservation and perpetuation. II
took many years Of educational. effort
to obtain legal recognition OF the prln-
ciple OF prohibiting commercialsm in
useful and valuable species Of birds
our wild life resources.
In the meantime many Of the most
and animals were completely extermi-
mated, or so nearly eliminated as to he
seen rarely except in the public and
private geological collections or exhi-
bits.
All Of these wild creatures were
abundant, almost beyond belief hui
were sacrificed to the greed of market
hunters ana game sellers, the men
whose only concern was TO kin and
snip as much(and as often, as possible
until the supply was exhausted.
All the opposition TO game and bird
conservation has invariably been traced
directly 10 the men who commercial
lied in the States resources of wild
NE, they are still at it, because it is
prohtaDie to sell something which
costs the seller nothing TO produce.
Every species which has become ex-
tlnct has been killed and sold for cash.
iHey cannot be reproduced. The law
ot supply and demand has CLOSED the
market forever. so that man-made
avs cannot ever again either permit or
lrohibit their sale-they are bevond

gone.

man living in a section where IS per
cent grades abound uses IS horsepower
at his rear wheels every second of the
time that he travels up them at % miles
per hour-or nearly 10 times the power
required to travel on the level at that

PUSHES a 30 per cent grade Cor a So-foot

that his rear tires are called upon to
TRANSMIT 50 horsepower in the case of a
1000 pound car, or 43 horsepower if the
car is half OF that weight.
Even no relief is offered the tires when
the car is travelling down hill, for then
the brakes must retard the speed. and
the fabric is reversed. The power is alb
sorbed by the brakes, but must first be
transmitted from the road through the
tires, and the latter therefore, still act
as a belt under these changed condi-
tions.
In likening the rear tires of a car to
a belt transmitting from 5 to so horse
power continuously, whenever the car
is run, we must consider the more IA
vorable conditions under which the lat
ter operates In the latter case the
