welcome to do so; for / know that
the vanished quail, sage grouse,
sharptail, heath hen, turkey, pigeon
antelope, sheep, goat, bison elk, mule
deer and grizzly bear will back me up.
Already the state areas of game
determination are countless, and APP
palling to anyone who cares a con
tinental. When such species as the
above have vanished to a point so
low that ven the hunter who killed
them off no longer fights against
long closed seasons for the odd sur
vivors, believe me, they are what l
call practically extinct" A few
species, like the sheep of Colorado,
have been succored in time to enable
to come back; but the majority have
not been protected.
Just take this sample illustration
of state closed seasons on species
now nearly extinct-merely one case
out of f-orty-eight-Michigan:
"No open season.: On elk, moose,
caribou, European partridge, dove,
quail, squirrel Except fox squirelD

ducks, auks, bitterns, sandhill and
%whooping crane, gannet, grebes, gulls,
herons, jaegers, looms, mures, terms
and all shore birds except woodcock,
Wilson or jacksnipe, black-bellied and
golden plovers and y~ellowlegs.'
Woodcock and snipe should now
have a long rest. The whooping crane
and trumpeter swan now are so lea
the point of total extinction that the
United States government now for
bids the killing of any, "even for
scientific purposes"-which for Wash
ton, is goin some.
Now everybody knows that Penn
sylvania is a high-class game protect
ing state, one of the best game states
in America. and her laws are well
enforced, but she has the usual grand
army of hunters. If the season of
1921 $4,000 sportsmen reported pre-
cisely what game they killed; and
here are some facts from the official
summary of what they got :
1t took 5 of those hunters to kill
1 quail, 5 to kill 1 duck, leo to kill
1 wild goose, 127 to kill l deer and
1905 to kill / bear.
But" the Deadly Optimist asks,
with all this great game protection
by organized sportsmen state game
commissioners and conservationist or
CARNATIONS, why worry? Mr.. Frank
NJ. Chapman has said: in the light
of his (the sportsman's) unequalled
record as a bird protector, let us
place our assets in game birds in
the hands of the sportsman knowing
that he, more than anyone else, is
concerned in their conservation"
Can you beat that? 1t is such

NEW YORK, May elf your are
a sportsmen who cares nothing about
legitimate hunting; if you are a bird
lover who cares nothing about the fu-
ture of u birds. or if you are a
wild-life conservationist who is too
lazy to conserve then do not harken
to me; for it would be a waste of
your valuable time.
If, on the other hand, you hate
game slaughter and determinations;
if you really wish for the perseverance
of wild life. and wish for it hard en-
ough to spend some two cent stamps
to promote it, then listen now to me;
for we have something in common.
l am going to tell you some facts
that are beyond the reach of contra
diction and are not ever open to ar
gument. The first fact is that our
American system of free hunting for
every citizen is now idiotic in its
principle and deadly in its practice.
In its final effects it is now extermi-
mating all of our killable game birds,
except the wild ducks in the ten or
twelve spots where the whole duck
population masses together in winter
ITO be killed while seeking their
food.
l have abandoned all hope that the
game bird of North America will be
saved for the future for continuous
sport" in killing them, n on any
other basis save life in permanent
sanctuaries. l am now a colossal
pessimist and "gloomy-spread,' but l
am still faithfully going through all
the motions of trying to awaken the
public to the point Of saving-some-
thing.
My point is that the bird-destroy-
ing influences are to the bird-saving
influences as 1000 is to 1; but /
fear that this estimate is too opti-
mistic. The destructive influences
may be listed as follows: 100000 an
nual hunters, 100000 hunting auto
mobiles, about 5,95O,0O0 automatic
pumpguns in use, bag limits 90 per
cent too deadly, open seasons out of
all sensible measure, fearful destruc-
ton of feeding and resting grounds,
utterly insufficient warden protection,
no planting of bird food and, fin
ally, the scourage of hawks, owls and
cats.
We have before US an abundance
of facts, figures and presidents from
which to forecast, with reasonable &C.
curacy, the impending fate of the
birds and mammals of North Amer
lea. Why pile them all up again for
the hundreth time? Those who
doubt what l am saying are perfectly

optimism as this that destroys the
last remnant of hope that the once
legitimate sport of game hunting
can or will long survive.
No, sir! The sportsmen of America
have proven throughout so years
that as a class and a mass they are
needless and persistent killers, and
that they are not saving the game on
a continuing basis. They are lot do
ing it now, and / believe that they
never will do it, because rs per cent
of them are too greedy to kill, too
merciless and too eXacting in the mat
ter of hunting privileges.
Here in the east once the home and
well spring of real conservation, a
great change has come over the
men who once joyously and generous
ly helped America-at-large to stop
market hunting and spring shooting,
and improve bag limits by federal
law. Alack and alas! They seem to
have grown weary of well-doing and
today only a bakers dozen of them
are willing to touch even with ten
foot poles, the movement to reduce
game slaughter. All a V a chosen
few are as cold as ice toward our
campaign to reduce bag limits, and
some of them are sulking in their
tents as if our bag limit campaign
had smallpox.
They have done some mild and de-
corous work for Mr.. Burnham's pub
lie shooting grounds bill, which is
held up by the eastern protagonists
as the one great cure-all for game
disappearance; but just what they
will do if it never is passed by con-
gress remains to be seen. The far
west is making a campaign against
federal participation in game pro-
lection; and the estate rights is
sue once more is offered as exhibit A.
With the exception of III perma-
nent fund here in the east, the ma
tional wild-life protecting organiza-
tons up to this date have framed and
introduced no bag limit bills, and l
fear they are not likely to initiate any
in the neal future. The organized
sportsmen of the east are diligently
pursuing that same policy The
state conservation commissioner nat
urally shrink from starting bills on
their own initiative only-and really
no one can blame them.
In New York and in Washington
there have been during the last eig-
teen months many big meetings of
conservationists, and a fine line of
talk about game and bird c%onserva-
ton. know the most Of the takers
very well, and if all of their talks
combined up to date have saved one
quail, one duck, one goose or bobo-
link from the sl~aughtering guns, l
have failed to hear of it, and would
be blithe to ken it. Yes; / know that
Connecticut has just stopped quail
hunting for three years.
Today, as two masses and two
classes, both the sportsmen and the
professional conservationists r in
danger of stalling on their game
protection job. None are so blind as

The plunger, with its spring, was set
