COURT DECISION RULES
FOR GUN CONFISCATION

Judge A. H. Reid in a decision
handed down in a reargument of the
case of Percy Hatton VS.. John B. Fos-
not, game warden, rules that the con-
fiscation of a gun is not an unreason-
able penalty for the violation of a
game law. He adds that even in the
case of Gemert VS.. Pooler, tried for
the supreme court of Wisconsin in
which the seizure of an automobile
was involved, the burden of the argu
ment appears to be to prove that the
owner was not hunting illegally and
that no argument appears to show
that the confiscation of an automobile
would be wholly unreasonable pen
atty.
The judge failed to agree with the
PLAINTIFFS attorney that the game law
interferes with a sheriffs men carry
ing rifles while in pursuit of crimi-
nails, and says that the Wisconsin
statute which compels the carrying of
gun knocked down or enclosed in
a carrying case is expressly confined
to hunting.
