Senator Knox Of Pennsylvania in a
set speech in the senate urges the re-

To Audubon Society
Members, a Crisis
Now Being Faced

The society faces crisis in which
its continued existence is threatened.
The public seems to fail to grasp the
necessity of bird protection Mis-
placed economy holds back even the
one dollar memberships. Insufficient
funds have neceSSitated more and
more curtailing of activities, until the
present situation is that we must
either have one or two thousand dol
lars additional funds to maintain ex-
pendltureS necessary to continued ex-
iStence for the balance of the year,
or 90 out of existence.
Various suggestions have been offer
ed, including doubling of dues, pledges
of from twenty-five to one hundred
dollars each from sufficient number
OF supporters to insure maintenance
fund, increase the membership through
individual efforts of members, CO.
operation in the schools, in the Y. NJ.
{. a. and in the Boy Scouts. All
of these suggestions have value, if
they can be adopted The vital thing
at the moment is immediate additional
funds, if the society is to be main
tanned.
Here is a question for the immedi-
ate vote of all members of this society:
Shall the New Jersey Audubon Society
be maintained or disbanded?
