oFight Out
Game Matter
In Courts
\
Suit to Decide if Forest
Service or State Shall
Control Game in Forests.
WESTERN STATES
TO JOIN IN ACTION

HELENA, Dec 5.-The Montana fish
and game commission and the United
States forestry service will lock horns
in test suit to determine which agency
has the right to administer wild life
policies in the national forests, says q
recent article in the Great Falls Trib-
une.
Montana has been singled out as the
battle-ground where will be thrasheo
out the legality of the edict of Secretary
of Agriculture Wallace that the forestry
service assume supervision over game
regulation in the forests.
At present the state fish and game
commission controls the game manage
ment policy in the national forests as
well as on the state land.
Glenn Smith of Missoula, regional
forester in charge of grazing, appeared
before the fish and game commission
today asking it to enter into a so-called
friendly suit to determine the right Of
supervisory control over Montana's
hunting lands in the national forests,
comprising some 22,0OO,O00 acres.
Although reluctant to be a party to
such a suit and with the agreement it
would enter only as an uncompromis-
ing defendant, and one that will fight
to the last inch for the states wild
game wealth, the fish and game COM
mission was forced to agree to court
action. The regional forester explained
that if the commission refused to be
party to the suit action would be start
ed by the forestry department on its
own initiative, forcing the commission
into court to defend itself
It was agreed that the Sun river dis
trict would be used as a. basis for the
suit and that the forestry service, act
ing under Secretary Wallaces order,
would assume jurisdiction over the wild
life within the borders OF the forests
embraced in that territory and would
issue regulations concerning it.
The suit will start, il was agreed, by
the forestry department issuing hunt
er a permit to kill an elk in that area
after the regular state season is closed
The hunter, inI possession of the elk,
will be arrested by the state fish and
game departp<nt and charged with VIC
lation of the laws of this state.
Fish aid game commissions from all
western states will meet at Denver Jan.
ITO discuss the matter and to form
a union with Montana in opposing the
order of the United States department
of agriculture.
Members Of the fish and game COM
mission said today that, although forced
into the suit they were optimistic over
the results and were confident that out

cording to the final Retail Summary o
the Census of American Business re.
leased today by William L. Austin, di-
rector, Bureau of the CensuA Depart
ment of Commerce
Despite 40 per cent drop in sales
volume in the four years since 1929
the effect on retail employment has
been considerably less
Between 1929 and 1888 the number
of full-time employees decreased 49,
per cent, from 3,833,59l shown in the
1929 Census to 2,703,325, which was the
average number of full-time employees
working throughout the twelve months
of 1898. Full-time payroll decreased AZ
per cent, but the total payroll decreased
only 1873 per cent because of a 52,4 per
cent increase In part-time payroll. The
average number of part-time employees
increased 28.3 per cent, to total of
730,327 in 1888.
The average annual earnings of full
time employees, which in 1929 amount
ed to 1892, were reduced during the
four years of depression to 1886, de-
duetion of 24.9 per cent.
Part-time employment has become
more of factor in the retail field than
in 1929. In the 1883 census the number
of part-timers is expressed on an aver
age annual basis, by dividing by IL the
total number of employee months e.,
the total number of employees reported
for each month of the year. The aver
age of 730,327 represents the equivalent
of that number of people working on
part time basis every month through
out the year. The average annual earn
ings of part-tirne employees are 34.2
per cent of the average annual earnings
of full-time employees, indicating that
the average part-time employee works
about one third of the normal number

part-time employment is a new factor
in the retail field.
Nearly $4,000 more proprietors were
working in, their own stores, in lieu of
employees during 1898 than were so
engaged in 1929 The total shown by the
new Census is 1,574,34f active proprie-
tors and firm members
Consistently throughout the country
there was a substantial and sustained
increase in employment, both full-time
and part-time, beginning in April and
increasing monthly throughout the re-
manning months of 1893.
