v. S. A NATION OF NiMRODs
NOW HAS 100000 HUNTERS

This Is nation OF Nimrods.
There are 100000 hunters in the
United States. according to the chief
United States game warden in the
Biological survey. U. S. department
of agriculture. This estimate was
made from reports on the number OF
game licenses by the various states.
In 1919. 100000 state licenses
were issued, and in addition il is es-
timated that 100000 hunters are
exempted under various state provis-
ions. The returns to the states from
licenses was approximately $500
600, all OF which was expended by
the states In administration OF state
laws FIR the UCtection OF game.
This sum permits the employment of
approximately 1000 salaried state
game wardens and 500 fee wardens.
The congressional appropriation for
federal game warden service for pre-
lection of migratory bids Is $142,5
which permits the employment OF on
ly 20 salaried wardens.
At its recent meeting in Ottawa the
international association of Fish,
Game and Conservation commission
ers adopted resolution calling for
the issuance Of federal licenses for
hunting migratory birds. The room
mendation called for licenses in the
form OF special stamps to be issued
by pOstmasters and attached to state
licenses. II was estimated that the
revenue from such Lenses would
amount to between s1,000.000 and So.
100000, which could be used for the
protection Of game.
