widely used. Radio also is becoming
an increasingly important aid to law
enforcement. The past year has seen
IAN unprecedented increase" in the
number of amateur radio users, Mr.
Terrell said.
Dealing with police radio, Mr.. Ter
rell reported that police departments
this year have 79 radio stations licensed
and in operation for communication
with radio scout cars and that con-
struction permits have been issued for
10 more. Last year there were So such
stations in operation.
Amateur Ranks Increased.
"Police headquarters stations have a
means of immediate contact with
patrolmen in scouting cars through the
use Of radio which results in prompt
action in any emergency and is real
public benefit" Mr.. Terrell said.
The ranks of amateur radio operators
increased from 22,739 to 30,374, the
license files of the division show. The
army Of amateurs has operated with
few violations of the law or regulations
and has performed useful service during
emergencies when regular communica-
tions systems were destroyed and also
has been helpful to field expeditions

j. S. MAY REQUEST
DUCK BLIND BAN
Restriction Is Planned From
Great Falls to Fort
Washington.

Next year Federal officials may ask
the States Of Maryland and Virginia TO
withhold issuance of permits for duck
blinds along the Potomac River ada
cent to the Mount Vernon Memorial
Highway and the proposed George
Washington Memorial Parkway from
Great Falls to Fort washington, Md.
This was indicated yesterday by Lieut..
Col. U. S. Grant, Sd, director OF pubic
buildings and public parks, who said:
1T may be desirable another year TO
ask Maryland and Virginia authorities
not to issue duck blind permits"
Private Property on Highway.
The colonel made it clear. in con-
junction with protest made to Secre-
tary Hurley over the erection OF duck
blinds. with the sanction Of Maryland
authorities, by Army officers on duty at
Fort Washington, that he Is not desir-
GUS of giving monopoly to any class
of people. He said that he would be
glad to see no shooting along the Mount
Vernon Memorial Highway, but en-
phasized that he has no desire to go
beyond his own jurisdiction. A number
of pieces of privately owned property
lie along the Potomac River adjacent to
the Government owned Mount Vernon
Highway, and officials said that, with
the approval of State officials, duck
blinds may be erected off shore from
privately owned properties.
Col. Grant asserted he is not starting
a crusade in barring shooting in the
river adjacent to the Mount Vernon
Highway, but is merely putting into
effect the regulations for national and
regional parks.
1t would be against the spirit Of the
law, Col. Grant insisted, to make a
hunting ground out of the Mount Yer
non Highway and adjacent waters. No
permits will be granted by the Federal
Government for shooting, he said.
Maryland Has Jurisdiction.
The State of Maryland, under ancient
land grant, has jurisdiction over the
Potomac River in this area to the Vir-
ginia shore line, but under reciprocal
agreement between the two States, off,
cials of the United States Engineer
Office said, Virginia can give licenses
for duck blinds up to 300 yards off
shore, provided the property owner is
agreeable E. A. Merrick, jr. engineer
in the Office of Maj. Joseph D. Arthur,
jr., district engineer for the War De-
partment for the Washington area, ex-
planned today that the Virginia fish and
game laws, Chapter 1874, give exclusive
right to property owners to erect duck
blinds, with State sanction. Now, the
United States Engineer Office auto
matically legaliZeS duck blinds if they
are within 800 yards of shore and are
not closer than 100 feet to the navigable
channel, Mr.. Merrick said.
Col. Grant pointed out that inasmuch
as the Army officers at Fort Washington
have duck blind permits from Maryland
authorities, there Is nothing he can do
about it. There is no shooting per-
mitted this year within the District of
Columbia, which has jurisdiction to the
Virginia shore over the Potomac River
in this locality, but the duck blind sit
uation within the city is considered a
matter for the harbor police, as Col.
Grants Office has no police boats.

Today a permit for construction of

This action was taken after the

Mr.. Terrell recommended amendment
of the radio marine laws to include
other types of vessels than steamships,
which alone are affected by the present
law. Safety of ocean navigation has
been further increased during the year
by installation of additional marine
radio beacons and radio compasses, it
was reported.
In the field of aviation, radio has
contributed materially to new high
performance records on the air trans
port lines, it was stated.
Demands made upon field employees
