SUGGESTIONS for a model State
game and fish administrative law,
adopted at the twenty-eighth an
nual convention of the International
Association of Game, Fish and Con-
servation Commissioners, held last
Fall at Montreal, briefly are explained
by Senator Harry B. Hawes, who said !:
There is both national and State
effort to secure uniformity Of State
legislation on various subjects. This
effort Is growing. If successful 1t will
make more easy and simple interstate
relations between the States and
simplify national and State contact.
Administrators and enforcement
officers of the law are seeking this
uniformity and it certainly seems de-
sirable that an earnest effort be made
to secure greater uniformity in State
game legislation.
when we consider, and it cannot
be repeated too often, that there are
seven million fishermen who annually
take. out fishing licenses and six mil
lion hunters who annually take out
hunting licenses, bringing to the
States for conservation purposes ap-
proximately $12,000,000 q year and
that it has been estimated that our
hunting and fishing bill for travel,
fishing and hunting accessories ap-
proximates $3.50 100000 annually, we
find an economic interest running into
very high figures.
"It has been estimated that Federal
control of game and game fish ap-
proximates only about Is per cent
Of the total and that IS per cent is

undertaking of large proportions. he
points out.

SHORTER TERM

Reduction Of the term Of Of

board from four to two years was
advocated last night by the Lyon

The proposal was first voiced
by the Jefferson District Civic
League last week at the mass
meeting which they held to
protest the removal Of County
Manager Roy s. Braden, before
his reinstatement by the county
board.
Since that time other civic
organizations have discussed it.,
but the action of the Lyon Park
group is the first concrete move.
President A. D. Adams selected
a committee headed by c. M.
johnson to study the situation
and present a report at the as
Soctation'S next meeting.
In further attempt to reduce
the power Of the county board, the
association called upon it's mem
bers, one Of whom, Mrs. Elizabeth
B. Magruder, was present, to give
more power to County Manager
Braden and to confine itself oEly
to passing on matters of policy.
The county manager was highly
praised by the members of the as
sociation, as were the members Of
the Jefferson Civic League for
the fight which brought about his

of the most difficult nature to a
conductor and an orchestra, and
far too many fall short.
To achieve the powerful tonal
effects by means of brasses and
percussionS, without drowning
out the rest of the orchestra, to
carry on the theme and at the
same time give the desired
strength, is something in which
many conductors fail.
The program today comes in
answer to many requests for the
works Of Richard Wagner, and
DR.. Hans Kinder has been drill
ing his men vigorously for this,
the first time the orchestra has
ever essayed such a program.
The program has been taken
from the Ring" operas, that gi-
gantic composition on which
Wagner labored for 26 years be.
