SIX MILLION DUCKS ANYWAY
 TOLL OF AMERICAN HUNTER

GENEVA, N. Y.-From six to ten million ducks were killed in the United States last year, says Dr. T. Gilbert Pearson of New York, presi- dent Of the American Audubon So- cieties, who made fervent appea flor better protection of birds during the international conference here on bird protection.
 Dr. Pearson created stor when he said that one American sports man had killed more than 5O,00O ducks. Dr. Uchida, the Japanese delegate, reported that more than 500,000 ducks had been killed in Japan in six months.
 The conference decided that com mercialization of food and plumage for the lives of other species of the feathered tribes, is the greatest men ace to wild bird life.
 Reports submitted declared that the netting and trapping of ducks on Lake Erie, in the United States, and along the coasts of Denmark, Holland, England and the Scandina- vian countries is rapidly depicting the supply and that the slaughter of aigrette and paradise birds at the ludIluS oSdSOAs WASh lhS plumdSS lS most brilliant, is leading to extinc- tion.
 Dr. Pearson created a stir when the killing of golden plovers is for bidden in the United States, they are served regularly on ocean liners. Meters in Holland take about 30,- 0o0 golden blowers every year, ac-. cording to Dr. Einar Lonnberg of Sweden, recognized as the greatest living authority on bird life in Eu- rope Remarking that the plover lays only four eggs, Dr. Lonnberg said that the time is not far distant when the golden plover will be as scarce in Europe as they are in the United States. He demanded pro lection for this dying species.
