The report further says: Zone con-

been that we must have public bu-
reaus to take the place of the private
fee-charging agencies. That is, in so
far as people are informed on the
question and have expressed their SEN
timents, most of them appeared con
WINGED that we should have public en-
plOymen' bureaus because of the
abuses of some fee-charging agencies,
quite regardless of other cOnsidera-
tiOns. In addition, however the feel
ing has been growing that this serv-
ice in the nature of the case should
be free, and that the very fact
of fee-charging carries with it a dan
gerous temptation to abuse and
fraud.

BY giving from one-third to one
half of their spoils to the owners of
the lands in which the lakes are stu
ated they are able to obtain permits
sion to make enormous bags. Some
OF the land owners, it i~ estimated,
receive as much as 10000 pesos

Sportsmen who have shot over the
greater part of the valley declare that
not less than fifty of these "armadas."
each with an average of $50 barrels.
are shot at least twice week for
four months each year, and, with hun
dreds of ducks to the average bag,
the total number slaughtered each
winter reaches a staggering figure.
In placing their batteries the In
dams throw up low breastwork of
mud and plants at strategic point
in one of the shallow lakes and imbed
in the ramparts as high as 200 barrels
OF all kinds, ranging from those Of
ancient shotguns to blunderbusses.
These are loaded with black powder
and all sorts of missiles and connect
ed by train of powder to an old
fiintlock, which is discharged by
means of string from the marks
mans hiding place.
When the armada is loaded and
the ducks begin to feed in the lake,
generally about noon, the entire popu-
lation of the village operating the
armada" begins, with infinite pa
tience and without frightening the
game, to drive the ducks within
range.
When this has been done the Ear

the victims, hundreds of them only
crippled, begins. AS many as two
thousand ducks have been shot down

After the game is sold the village
celebrates with a big carousal and
then waits until new victims gather.
Appeals to U. S. Clubs Planned.
Despairing, after repeated attempts,
Of limiting pot hunting through local
| regulations, Mexican sportsmen are
planning to address an appeal to game
commissions and gun clubs in the
United States and Canada in the hope
| that, by combined action, 1t may be
| possible to halt the annual massacre.
| They argue that the funds and eff
forts being expended by Mexico's
j northern neighbors to protect migra-
tory game in those countries are
wasted If, when the birds reach Mex
/ leo in the winter, they are bagged
1 almost without restriction. The prac-
tice, they declare, is as unsportsman-
like as the trapping of quail, ship
ments of which totaling as high as
$4,000 are not uncommon in northern
Mexico, and will send the ducks after
1 the vanished wild pigeons unless reg
/ ulated.
Pintail make up most of the bags,
1 but canvassbacks, mallard, widgeon,
bluebiIls, redheads and teal of all
kinds are also shot down by hundreds
of thousands.

Mexicans Use Batteries of
Guns on Fowl.

Mexico City.-Mexican sportsmen
in their fight to preserve the country's
diminishing flocks of ducks from pot
hunters, who hundreds of times yearly
slaughter as high as 1000 birds at a
single discharge of their "armadas,"
have again lost. Publication of the
1924 hunting regulations by the fish
and game bureau of the department
of agriculture shows that the hunting
of wild ducks by means of "armadas,"
or great batteries of shotguns, will be
permitted from November / to Feb
ruary 30.
While only two shots week from
each armada" are permitted, this is
considered a minimum restriction, as
the fowl will not return to the same
lake in sufficient numbers to make the
firing of moro than two "armadas" a
week profitable.
Divide With Land Owners.
Throughout the valley of Mexico
are scores of shallow lakes where ev-
