includes trap shooting, fiy casting
and talks by prominent sportsmen
in this and other states of the
northwest The Walker Rot and
Gun club are looking after the com
forts of the sportsmen attending
convention.
In a very interesting article to
sportsmen in this issue of the Bull
Moose is an article written by Car
los Avery, state game and fish com
the killing of females in big game
is unethical and should be discour-
aged. Mr.. Avery says that in this
state sportsmen are killing legally
every year about $4,000 deer, and
approximately one half of these are
either fawns or females. This
means that in the past three years,
the state has permitted the slaugh-
ter of 25, 500 female deer, and fawns
which are sadly needed to insure
the maintenance of the herd in the
forests of this state.
In addition to the vast number
of deer, there are about 300 bull
moose killed annually. Mr.. Avery
says that the females of all large
game species must be carefully pro-
tected at all times and everywhere
in order to avoid total extermina-

TAKE TARIFF OUT
OF POLITICS, PLAN
AMENDMENT is OFFERED
TO PRESENT BILL
LARGER BODY URGED
Senator Frelunghuysen Would
Construct Revenues In
Scientific Way.

Washington D. c., June 21.-Mach
inery for the construction of what
was described as a scientific tariff
based on the differences between
conversion costs in this country and
abroad would be set up under an
amendment to the pending tariff
bill proposed today by Senator Ere
linghuysen, republican. New Jeresy.
who as a member of the finance
committee, helped draft the present
measure.
Under the amendment, the tariff
commission would be enlarged to
ten members and would be required
to recommend to congress not later
than December l, 1923 and each six
months thereafter, rates of duty
necessary to equalize the differenc-
es in conversion costs as disclosed
by investigations which 1t would
make.
President Appoint Members
The members of the commission
would be appointed by the presi-
dent, would hold Office for life and
would receive salaries OF $4,000
Not more than five of them could be
of the same political party and none
of them could engage actively in
any private business, trade or pro-
fession.
In a prepared address explaining
his amendment Senator Frelinghu-
sen declared the present tariff sys-
tenn was both Illogical and un-
scientific" describing that system as
"a compilation of the statements of
manufacturers, importers, merch-
ants and farmers, and of inconclu-
sive data collected by government
agencies inadequately equipped" the
senator said the public mind was
thoroughly awake to 'the abuses of
this system and to the necessity for
reform"
Should Prove Warning
"And this awakening should be a
warning to all of us to take the
tariff out of politics." he. continued.
cannot be taken out of politics. 1t
is probable that the theory of what
constitutes proper tariff leyie al
waves will remain a political ques-
ton, Just as it has 1t always been a
matter of dispute between econo-
mists. But the method of finding
out the facts on which to assess
tariffs certainly is not a political
matter" .....
The New Jersey senator argued
that his amendment would vital
fze" the tariff commission and would
removed its members from person :
al and party pressure" by establish
ing fundamental principle for fx-
ing rates Also he said 1t would give
the commission the time, the money
and the authority to frame such a
bill as would afford actual, not
merely protection to American in
dustry and American labor"
