Little Rock. Jan THE act, which
was passed in 1913, has been super
seeded by the migratory bird treaty
migratory bird act was imperative,
the fact that it was held unconstitu-
tional will have no effect. In its
place is the migratory bird treaty act
the constitutionality of which still
remains unquestioned The latter act
is an act to carry out treaty be-
tween the United States and Canada
to protect migratory birds. In the
opinion of County Judge Lee Miles
who is member OF the Arkansas
Game and Fish Commission, the
action taken by the United States SUI
preme Court yesterday in declaring
the former act unconstitutional was
merely to dispose of the case. In
order to avoid misrepresentation, he
said, it might have been better for
the supreme court simply to have dis
missed the case.
E. w. Visart, federal game warden,
said the fact that the 1913 law had
been declared unconstitutional does
not in any way effect the present
federal migratory bird law. Dick
Brundidge, secretary of the Arkansas
Game and Fish Commission. issued a
similar statement in regard to the
declaring of the earlier law unconsti-
tutional.

TRANSFER RULE
EXPECTED SOON
Will Be Granted at All Sew
enteen Points, 1t Is
Believed.

Decision of the Public Utilities
Board on the question of establishing
intercOmpany transfers at the seven
teen Intersections of the street car
lines is expected to be handed down
tomorrow or Tuesday.
Brig. Gen. Charles w. KutZ, chair
man of the board. stated yesterday y
afternoon that the board prOba bly,
would be ready to give its decision
before the middle of this week.
While the terms of the decision Of
the commission cannot be definitely
forecast, it is the general impression
that the determined manner in which
citizens pressed for the enforcement of
the laws of Congress providing for
free transfers will be reflected in the
forthcoming decision. and that the car
companies will be ordered to inaugu-
rate transfers at all points recon-
mended in the BeeIer report
As both traction companies have
agreed not to resist i'm the courts the
commissions decision directing the es-
tablishment of transfers. the system
undoubtedly will be inaugurated as
soon as the decision IS rendered.
