The fall migration Of northern birds
to their winter homes in the south Is
now on by night and day. These migra-
tions. according to the species and habits
Of the birds, are made by easy stages in
flying, carrying the flyers over spaces
reckoned in thousands Of miles, resting
and feeding by day and by long periods
on the wing. covering day and night.
Millions of birds OF over 256 species
make this annual journey from north
to south at the end Of summer and
back again in the spring. Many pass
the winter months IN the gulf states or
in Mexico. 1t is said some species pene-
trate the forests Of valleys Of Central
America, while the swallows. 1t has
been noted by ornithologists, fly on tire
less wing over the whole tropical zone
to Brazil and Argentina.
D. c. In Direct Pathway.
The District Of Columbia. according to
the late DIR. John Burroughs, is located
in the direct pathway of migratory
birds. which should be Of more than
ordinary interest In the development OF
this important phase of nature study.
Recent investigation by the govern
ment scientists of the Smithsonian In
stitution and United States biological
survey. compiled from a half million
records of observation. covering period
of twenty-five years in the United
States and Canada. have upset popular
nations regarding the migration OF birds
that is, as to the causes OF this sud
den departure Of the feathered tribes
from Il given locality and their return
in spring.
These scientists havebeen studying the
autumnal and venal flights Of birds.
and have reached the conclusion that
the songsters fly south in the winter
and north in the summer in obedience to
physiological laws governing bird life
or lack of food. 1t was noted that the
southwark flight Of birds takes place in
August and September, at a time when
weather conditions are favorable for
their comfort and tho food supply most
abundant.
Records OF 1000 Years.
For more than two thousand years
the phenomena Of bird migration have
been noted. but while the extent and
cause of the routes traversed have Of
late become better known, no conclu
sve answer has been found to explain
fully the yearly flights.
According to an accepted theory of
ages ago. the United States and Can
ada swarmed with -migratory
birds long before the Arctic ice fields
advancing south during the glacial
era rendered uninhabitable the north:
ern half of the continent. The birds
love of home Influenced them to re-
main near the nesting site until the
approaching ice began for the first
time to produce a winters period
of inclement weather which 80 re-
duced the food supply as to compel
the birds to move or starve. As the
ice approached gradually. now and
then recedin9, these enforced re-
treats. at first only a short distance

in distance and duration until migra.
tion became an integral part Of the,
Very being of the bird. In other
words. the formation of the habit of
migration took place at the same
time that changing seasons in the
ditions Of the pre-glacial eras.
Another Theory Advanced.
According to the opposite migra-
tion theory. the birds real home is
the southland: all bird life tends to
overproduction and overcrowding.
and at the end of the glacial era the
suitable breeding grounds with less
keen competition than in their
tropical winter home, gradually
worked northWard as the retreat OF
the ice made habitable vast reaches
Of virgin country. But the winter
and to this they returned as soon
as the breeding season was over.
Having reared their young and
taught them to fly, and having moult-
the restive birds start southwark
long before the frosty nights or
frozen lakes and rivers make such
flight necessary. In like manner, the
return journey begins at time be-
fore the northern woods and fields
birds go north. Robins and blue
birds. blackbirds and the meadow
larks. the kildee and the heron are
among the early arrivals, and they
often appear on sunny slopes in the
southern side of forests before the
snow has completely gone. when
they must seek friendly shelter of
evergreens and the densest thickets
as a protection from the rigors of
the cold nights: Besides. the birds
arrive at their destination often dur

HOUSE PUTS UP S7,iOO, 900
Proposals Suggest Appropriations of
From One to One Hundred Millions
for Enforcement, but Volstead's
Plan Ia Finally Accepted

Washington, Jan. Is. = The house
went up and down the ladder in vot-
ing on appropriations for enforcement
of the prohibition law yesterday.
First rejecting an amendment to the
pending appropriation measure, under
which the bureau of internal revenue
would be given S1O,000,O00 TO break up
the outlaw liquor traffic, the house
adopted, S6 to 4S, an amendment by
Representative Volstead of Minnesota,
father of the law, increasing the total
from s6,500,0OO to $7,1000O0. Before
this vote was taken, the house, jump
ing from one extreme TO the other, de-
feated without count an amendment
LIMITING the amount to 100000.
Pleading for a larger sum than had
been fixed by the appropriations com
committee in framing the legislative,
executive and judicial bill, Mr.. Vol
stead gave warning that the cdlntry
would be heard from if it was the pol
icy OF congress TO cut down approprta-
akons and make the job Of enforcement
a joke. Mr. Volstead said he merely
proposed a figure nearer that which
the attorney general had requested.
Representative Gallivan CD. Massa-
chusetts proposed to make the appro-
priation $10O,OOO000. Taking up the
statement Of Mr.. yoIstead that q good
part of the money spent would come
back In fines, he said:
''Why this mite? Let's 90 the limit
Let's help the new administration by
bringing back a hundred million"
Referring by name to Wayne Wheel

THREE AME MOMENTS
FOR FORDNEY BILL
HIGHER IMPORT DUTY PLACED
ON WHEAT, AND DAIRY PROD
UcTs ARE BENEFITED
WOOL MEN WANT PROTECTION
Members of Federal Tariff Commits
sion Submit Figures Gathered in
investigation of Wool Produc-
tion.-Hides Protected

Washington. Jan. 15.-Three amend
ments were tackled in the Fordney
emergency tariff bill by the senate fl
nance committee yesterday in its first
days consideration in executive SEES
sion after the recent public hearing.
After the committee had voted, 10 to
4, to open the bin to amendments,
Senators Calder (R), New York, and
Jones (D), New Mexico, got provisions
through which materially broadened
the scope of the measure, and Senator
McCumber CRY, North Dakota, obtain
ed acceptance OF a higher import duty
on wheat.
The McCumber amendment would
FIX a tariff on imported wheat Of 40
cents bushel instead of the 80 cents
carried by the bill as 1t passed the
house. Senator Calder's amendment
would add dairy products 10 the list
already protected, establishing a tar
if Of six cents a pound on butter and
cheese and their substitutes and two
cents and five cents a gallon on fresh
milk and cream, respectively. Under
the Jones amendment the import duty
on hides, carried in the Dingley tariff
law. would be restored as a part Of
the Fordney measure for the 10 months
of its life.
Members of the federal tariff COM
mission were with the senate commit
tee during most of its deliberations. 1t
submitted at the request of Chairman
Penrose the results OF its inyestlga-
ton of the wool growing industry for
use when the wool rate is considered
by the committee.
The commissions report said that
the great decline in wool prices was
the result chiefly of worlds surplus
of the commodity, but added that sew
eral other factors entered into the
falling values. OF these the commits
sion charged the drop in prices more
directly to the buyers strike and a
stricter limitation of credit.
AS to the production costs, the re
port showed that for running sheep on
the range the per head expense was
1864. 1854 and 1919 for 1918, 1919
and 1920 respectively. These figures
compare with costs OF about 50 head
in 1910.
