FEDERAL LAW REGULATING
STATES DEER SEASON OFF
Under That Provision and Laws oi
Georgia, Both observed, Meant
No Big Game Hunting.

Several federal and state game laws
are in direct confiict and hunters have
asked that they may be advised as
just what to do. For instance. the
national game law provided that deer
shall not be killed only during the
month OF October. while the Georgia
law permitting it from November /. to
December 81. 1t will be seen that, ac-
cording TO these, the hunting Of this
big game could not be legally done
Warden Hopkins has investigated and
states that the national law as far as
1t concerns this state, has been "called
off" and those who have state licens.
es are within their legal right provid-
ed they do not kill more than the num-
Der allowed by the state.
In one or two other cases, especial
ly migratory game, there was con-
fiict between federal and state laws,
but, Warden Hopkins says. when a
person has a state license he is sup
posed to be guided by the state laws
and Is perfectly safe II these are obey
ed to the very letter.
