Duck Refugees
in Marsh Areas

been made permanent refugees under
the guardianship of the Department Of
Agriculture, and many private pre-
serves. some formed by artificial
means. have been established where
the birds are protected while nesting.
In addition, in a number of cases,
rigid local restrictions have been
placed upon hunters.
Investigating the Ducks.
AS a means of cooperating in such
efforts to maintain and increase the
number Of waterfowl, the biological
survey of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture has undertaken
Investigations of the general conditions
under which wild ducks i've and
thrive, coupled with counts Of the
birds found in areas varying In char
acter. During three summers, fie6
studies were made dealing with Wild
ducks In the Bear river ma, shes Ia
Utah, report of which has just been
published by the department In De-
partment Bulletin 936, Wild Ducks and
Duck Foods of the Bear River Marshes,
Utah.
During the three seasons devoted to
this work IL species of ducks and the
Canada goose were found breeding In
the region included in the Bear river
marshes. which cover an extennlve
area at the northern end of Great
Salt Lake. In an enumeration made
during May and June, 1916. of The /
species of breeding ducks $500 pairs
We're counted, and II is believed that
this number represents between 60 and
100 per cent of the total number Of
breeding ducks occurring here that
season.
Vast Number In One Region.
Allowing FIVE Young reared to ma
turity as the average for each pair,
and considering 1915 as an average
season, the bulletin states that, at n
conservative estimate, between 25OOU
and 10000 wild ducks, native to the
marsh, are to be found there at the
close of the breeding season.
II was found that, In addition to
the large number of birds reared on
the Bear river area. many other ducks
came In after the nesting season to re-
main there until fall. That birds from
the Bear river section range widely
after leaving these marshes has been
shown by records of ducks that have
hppD handed and roloacod tho,o .,,,
subsequently were shot elsewhere. Rec.
ords thus obtained show that birds re-
leased near the mouth of Bear river
in migration cover the region from
Oklahoma to Texas and west to Cal
ifornia. The department urges the es
tnblishment of greater number of
preserves where wild fowl may breed
and rest unmolested and find an am.
pie supply Of food.

Federal Child Labor Law
Is Held Unconstitutional

GREENSBORO, S. c., Aug. %.
Judge James E. Boyd in
Federal Court to-day held the
new Federal Child Labor law
unconstitutional. The Owes-
Heating Child Labor Law was
also held unconstitutional by
Judge Boyd two years ago, and
that ruling was upheld by the
Supreme Court of the United
States.
Regulation of labor, Judge
Boyd held In his decision to-day,
is one of the powers retained by
the States. State child labor
laws are adequate and provide
penalty, not tax, as is proposed
by the act Of Congress, the de-
cision said.
The attempt of the Federal
Government to regulate laeor
within the State is violation OF
the sovereign rights of the State,
concludes the ruling.
Judge Boyd's ruling declared
that following the decision
against the Overwhelming act
Congress "reenacted the Owen
Heating law in an internal rev.
enue bill providing tax on the
products Of a corporation using
child labor"

AMERICA RESPONSIBLE
FOR SHIP VACCINATIONS
U. S. Doctor Supervised Work
Done on Rochombeuu.

Special Cable to THE New York HERALD.
Copyright, 1871, by THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Paris, Aug. 20.
The statement by A. T. Henderson,
passenger agent of the French Line in
New York Saturday, that the French
Government had nothing to do with the
vaccination OF passengers on board the
steamship Rochambeau at Havre on Au-
gust 10 was backed up in authoritative
quarters here to-day. It was learned
that the vaccinations were performed by
French doctors and nurses under the
supervision Of an American doctor and
under implicit instructions from the
United States Public Health Service.
THE NEW YORK HERALD correspond
ent here was informed that every pre-
caution was taken by the physicians and
that no needle was used twice. while the
vaccine was the freshest obtainable any
where. Statements made by passengers
upon the arrival of the Rochambeau In
New York last Friday that unsanitary
co nditions obtained we're fatty contra
dicted.
The vaccination OF Americans as we'll
as foreigners on board the Rochan,beau
was ascribed by Havre authorities as
due TO the fact that this vessel has no
FIRST class accommodations, and that the
instructions In connection with the health
inspection of persons bound for United
states ports provide that special atten-
ton be given TO second and third class
passengers. as many persons emigrating
from Europe TO America are now taking
second class passage In order to escape
the inspection. Health officials at Havre
are now preparing for special instruc-
lions covering vessels CARRYING only one
class of passengers.

"The pound is no more the standard

Italy has collected all obligations owed

Prior to the adoption OF the dollar
