Says Many
Are Directing To
Hunt Regulations
Local Sportsmen Desire Open Season
On Birds, States
<. M. Boyes.

There's a lot of kicking being done
by the sportsmen OF this section on the
recent ruling by the state fish and
game commission regarding the open
and closed season ON birds" said E. M.
Boyes Of Libby, member Of the board
of the State Sportmen's association
They are not at all satisfied with the
ruling Of the association as it affects
Lincoln county and dozens Of them are
coming to me and kicking about it,"
According to the ruling" continued
Boyes Lincoln county is opened to
Hungarian partridges Of either sex but
closed to Ch In e se and Monaghan
pheasants. We have no Chinese or
Monaghan pheasants so that does not
apply here. There are a few Hungarians
in the Northern part of the county.
They are just getting nicely established
there and think it is very foolish to
open the season on. them. They ought
to be given more time to multiply
Local sportsmen are mostly affect
ed, however, by the season remaining
closed on upland birds, that is, on blue
grouse, native pheasants and fool hens.
A lot of us feel that the season should
have been opened on these birds. I'm
der closed ruling, there is bound to
be more or less illegal hunting and
probably just as many birds will be
killed as though the season had been
opened The man who hunts illegally
places no limit on the number he gets
and that, of course, results in greater
slaughter of the birds. feel that there
should have been an open season in
Lincoln county on upland birds"

A new discord loomed today on
the domestic horizon of Max Baer
the prizefighter turned screen actor
who trusts none but himself to re-
veal whatever troubles he may
have
By his own admission. a separa-
ton is impending between Baer
and his wife, the former Dorothy
Dunbar, actress.
Dorothy is nice girl but we
can't seem to get along" Max told
reporters on the movie set where he
is working. I'VE may be forced into
another separation"
BY another separation Max
was referring to a previous rift
which resulted in Mrs. Baer suing
for divorce. Max, fresh from vic
tory over Max Schmeling, hurried
back to California and effected a
reconciliation.
The BaerS were married in Reno,
New, a few days after Max dropped
a 20 round decision to Pauline
Uzcudun, the bounding basque.
That was before Max even thought
of Hollywood.
Now he is quite the rage at the
Metro lot, where his set is crowded
by chorus girls who drop over from
adjoining practice stages to watch
Baer emote opposite Lupe Velez,

HITLER FLAYS
JEWISH RACE
German Chancellor Renews
Vicious Attack In Nuremberg
Speech.
BY FRIEDRICH OESCHNER
United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent
NUREMBERG, Germany, Sept
1.-The Jews were denounced as a
peril to western civilization in a
proclamation by Chancellor Adolf
Hitler read today at the great
gathering here of the German
Nazi party.
The proclamation quoted the
famous German historian, Theodor
Mommsen, as warning the world
against the Jews.
IF the great German historian
Mommsen characterized Jewry as
ferment of decomposition in the
life of nations, then decomposition
in Germany is far advanced" the
proclamation declared. I'm view OF
the international affiliations of this
main ferment of decomposition anc
the, particular dangers resulting
to Germany from it. we must ever
the more strive to eliminate among
our people the spirit of doubt
If. therefore, national socialism
with ferocious determination fought
against the stalthy collapse of the
occident, it did so in recognition
of the not yet destroyed values
innate in civilized nations"
Regarding the future structure
of the German Republic, the proc
lamation revealed ideas contrary
to maxims of Bismark. 1t declared
that the federal states will cease
to be the pillars of the Reich in
the future.
The Nazi movement and a unified
nation will be the sole pillar, Hit
Ter said, and hence the Nazi aim
is not to perpetuate the federal
states but to wipe them out.
Hitler's proclamation attacked
the bourgeois parties for trying to
fight Marxism through democracy.
1t declared the Nazi party was aim
ing through education to make the
nation spiritually immune against
the resurgence of democracy and
parliamentarism."
