SHOTGUN OR RIFLE
commends Law Which Bans High
Powered Projectiles.

Powered Projectiles.
An official Of the Massachusetts de-
partment OF fisheries and game &C
counts Tor the lack OF human fatal
ties in the 1922 open season for deer
in Massachusetts to the fact that
hunters are required to use shotguns
/ Instead OF rifles, the argument being
that the hunters have to get so close
to the deer in order to inflict fatal
wound that they are thereby given a
chance to determine for certainty
whether il Is deer or human being
That they are stalking. s
The further argument Is advanced
that there is less danger from scatter
ing Shots for persons who may be In
range OF the shotgun than there Is
from q single large proJectile from n
empowered rifle.
The argument seems to be rather
we'll taken; and the possible counter.
argument that deer cannot we'll be
taken by means of a shotgun Is dis.
counted at the start by the statistics
OF the Massachusetts department OF
fisheries and game that 1868 deer
were killed in Massachusetts, during
the single week of the open season
which was number greater than kill.
ed In Vermont during two weeks.
A further comparison between the
! open seasons in the two states re.
veals that Vermonts record of human
fatalities and injuries in the open sea
son Is rather black whereas Massa
chusetts' record is entirely clean.
With deer stalking going on in peo

DRY originally advanced in that case
was correct. n.
Rifle bullets are carried long dis
tances and are likely to find human
detectives when hunters take no care
whether they are shooting in the di
