FISHING AND HUNTING

tanning to the future dove regu-
lations, but, to my surprise, he
presented to me q very lengthy
petition signed by 10000 people
memorializing Congress and the
survey to pass legislation deSignat-
ing the dove as a songbird and
placing it on the year-around pro-
tected list.
This move is being sponsored by
the Audubon societies. In my
opinion they are thoroughly hon.
est in their contention, but their
ideas are indeed impractical.
From New England
The signers of this petition are
principally from New England and
the Western States. They do not
have dove shooting there and con-
sequently they do not appreciate
the sport the people in the South
enjoy, in addition to the food
value.
Experience convinces me, if we
are to continue the pleasure Of
shooting doves in the South, we
have to live strictly up to the
State and Federal laws, obey the
bag limit, outlaw the baited fields
and convince our Audubon Society
friends that we are DESTROYS Of
conserving the migratory bird and
not Slaughtering.
