Sportsmcn Favor
Higher License Fee

MISSOULA, Jan. 5.-(Special)-Mon-
tana sportsmen, fully conversant with
the fact that immediate steps must be
taken to provide adequate revenue to
continue the conscientious campaign OF
wild life conservation if the Treasure
state is to continue as playground Tor
all America, have risen in a great
group to impress upon the coming
legislature the necessity for increasing
the hunting and fishing license fees.
With reports arriving daily of action
by clubs unanimously indorsing the
project, the total today has reached
SO organizations in 20 of the Sc counties
of the state, according to B. f. Gerry,
secretary of the Montana Sportsmens'
Association. The state organization will
hold its annual meeting at Helena jan
uary and 10 at which time final prep
arations for attaining the desired goal
will be made
Reports from the majority of clubs
indicate that the split license fee is
favored. This plan tentatively provides
for fee of So for fishing, 81 for hunt
ing small game and birds and 81 for
big game, with. the provision that the
deer and elk tagging system be
adopted. Other clubs have expressed
themselves in favor of flat fee of So,
some favor 81 and others S. and vet
others have left the amount open in
order that members of the legislature
may use their best judgment All clubs
however, are agreed that an increase
is mandatory. The exact amount OF that
increase is to be determined
With the funds of the State Fish and
Game department at the lowest mark
in years and with more licenses pur-
chased during the 1s29-193O biennium
than at any time in the history Of the
department, demands are growing by
leaps and BOUNDS for more trout rear
ing ponds, the restocking of more
dykes to inpound waters for migra
tory water fowl, increased capacity Of
the battery of IA fish hatcheries and
the release of more game birds. Mon
tana's streams have been whipped as
never before during the last two years.

industry, the business of taking fish
and game from Montana waters has
continued brisk, until memories of the
passenger pigeon, the antelope, buffalo
and the prairie chicken are causing a
stir among sportsmen that is felt
throughout the state The sale Of resi-
dent licenses reached the peak in 1929
when 1889 were sold at 81. In 1890,
according to figures just COMPLETED, the
total reached 82.331-only slightly be-
low the 1929 mark despite the COM
mercial upheaval throughout the ma
ton. Nonresident fishing license sales
maintained corresponding increase

Word comes that the bondhold-
ers committee for the Columbia
Irrigation District has arrived at
a stage where the refinancing
plans can be put into effect. This
action on the part of the board, a
plan worked out during the past
few years by Manager Muldrow,
is about the only one which could
save the district from going into
the hands of a receiver. The new
plan will stabilize irrigation con-
ditions in such a manner as should
attract settlers to this district,
should the farming situation ever
return to a stage where a farmer
could operate at margin of pro-
fit. The carrying out of the plan
is of untold value to this district.

Across the river today several
thousand men are meeting to get
the huge Columbia Basin project
under way. This is a project which
will cost a quarter of a billion dol
lars to construct and ultimately
bring to the Pacific Northwest un-
told millions in crops and all sorts
of activity. It's a project SO big
that it captures popular fancy by
it's magnitude. However, we in this
irrigated district should be inter-
ested in it for a more personal
reason. 1t will add greatly to our
consuming population and be a
vast aid in supplying a nearby
market for the products which
are peculiar to our district. The
indirect benefits can never be es-
timated even. The Basin boosters
should have our moral support at
least.

Everyone seems well satisfied
with the fair. As a matter of fact
it was one of the best exhibitions
we have ever had, barring the
fruit section. OF course, success
in any such enterprise requires
the united efforts of the entire
community, but there are few
men-and women-who are en-
titled to an unusual mead of
praise. Outstanding in this group
is the county agent and President
C. C. Williams. These men, both
of them, put in many hours Of
work on the fair. 1t wouldn't hurt
their feelings a particle if few
of us went little out of our way
to commend them.
