GAME WARDEN SAYS THE
STATE IN A BIG MIDDLE

State Game Warden Willard gives
out the following statement relative
to game laws
"To the hunters and fishermen of
Arizona
AT the instigation of the game
protective associations Of Arizona
I'll in number) a bill was introduced
in the seventh legislature and passed
with little or no opposition, providing
for the repeal of our entire present
game code, which has proven defective
in many vital respects.
''This was to be submitted to the
people for their approval or rejection
at the general election in November,
1926. This process of repeating was
necessary because of the fact that our
present game laws had become such
by direct approval of the people and
consequently the Legislature was
powerless to repeal or amend the
same, except by submitting their ac-
tions to the people for approval.
"But having passed the measure as
urged to do by the game protective
associations the legislature still had
one brilliant idea left over, so they
passed another bill ordering special
election to be held September, 1926,
providing that our repeal bill together
with a couple of other referred meas
ures, should then be submitted to the
people.
"lf this repeal measure should be
approved by the people at the special
September election, it would 90 into
effect 30 days thereafter. And the
result would be that the game depart
ment, the license system, the ma
chinery for the enforcement Of the
game laws and the game refugees
would be abolished and the state fish
hatchery cease to function till the next
legislature met in 1927, Is months
later, and remedied the situation by
the enactment of a new game code.
Meanwhile for period of 10
months it shall be a misdemeanor,
punishable by imprisonment in the
county jail for not less than 80 days
nor more than six months, for any
person who hunts, kills or takes in
any manner, any game animal, bird.
or fish. Should we not be proud of
the legislators responsible for this
wonderful piece Of legislation?
Furthermore the constitution eX-
plicitly provides that all initiative and
referred measures shall be submitted
to the people at the next regular gen
eral election. Therefore the act of
the legislature in ordering the special
September election fer the submission
to the people of their several referred
measures is wholly without constitu-
tional authority and it would neces-
sarily follow that any measure SO sub
mitted and so approved could not
stand the test of the court.

GENERAL
APPLICATIONS FOR STATE |
LANDS EXCEED SUPPLY

That there are applications with the
state land department to lease 1,500,-
900 acres of land with no selections
whatever available was the statement
issued by Vernon Vaughn, state land
commissioner.
This statement bears with the con-
tention of the Frank Luke Jr., Post
No. 1, Phoenix, that there is great
demand for state lands by stock hold
ers who would lease them for grazing
purposes. The Phoenix post is favor
ing a movement which will come be-
fore the state convention of the
American Legion in Nogales July 2.
.3, A and 5, asking congress to grant
Arizona an endowment of two mil
lion acres, the proceeds of which will
be used for the benefit of ex-service
men seeking health in Arizona.
The status of state lands is fully ex
planned in the letter written by State
Land Commissioner Vaughn to Ste
phen r. Rayburn, chairman of the
committee heading this movement.
The body of the letter reads:
"My dear Mr.. Rayburn:
Complying with your request of a
few days ago that you be supplied
with statement showing the approx
mate number of acres Of unappropri-
ated government land, for which ap-
plications have been filed with this
department to select and which ap
plications to select have so far re-
maineG in the files without action,
owing to the fact that the state of
Arizona is without base to make the
same.
"a careful checkingA of our records
indicate that applications are filed to
select lands in the southeastern por
ton of the state in the aggregate of
I619,438.02 acres; in the northwest
300,155.00 acres; in the southwest 2l,
10000 acres and in the northeast, 520,-
1890 acres, making total of AGO.
946.02 acres of land applied for, which
the state is unable to select for the
reason stated above"
