 Farmers had their own little pro- tests to make while posting their lands against hunters.
 They are not worried about scar- city of birds. They merely don't like the idea of having the livestock shot up."
 A few farmers have protested to the state over the amount of feed Chinese pheasants eat every year. Those few allow free access to their land--and run for the storm cellars.
 With the land posted against hunting, Chinese pheasants have thrived. On the opening day of the season hunters found little trouble getting limits.
 Four out of i've came back with the limit of four birds each. A week later, hunting was still good. A week before the end of the sea- son, limits were still duck soup."

By MAX c. FUNKE NEA Service Special Correspondent
 Boise, Nov. 3-When party of l2 Seattle and Salt Lake sportsmen left Boise with more than l60 Chin csc pheasants, they left an argu- ment that may prove the turning point in this and other states game department policy in rearing and protecting the bird.
 Everything was legal about the visitors trip to Boise valley; li- censes were paid, permits to ship out of the state were obtained, legal bag limits were observed.
 But sportsmen and farmers took up arms against tourist agencies to protect what they termed their own game" from outsiders.
 Sportsmen argued that Idaho raised during tender age, and the farmers argued they raised them to maturity by allowing them to partake of grain in their fields.
 Tourist agencies, however, argued that the visiting party of 12 proved their best point - that the state should go into the business of rais- ing Chinese pheasants, not only for personal hunting. but for a tourist attraction which no other state in the Union is able to present.
 Members of the party spent $500 in the state. Statistical cost of each bird was placed at s6.
 Of the $500 total, 4i20 in licenses went to the state. Tourist agents declared that amount covered ex- pense of raising the birds; that the state was also ahead additional amounts left through business chan nels.
 Farmers Utter old Cry
 eportsmen, however, felt Idaho's supply of birds would be suddenly depleted if too lax licensing methods were brought into effect. They computed the cost per bird under Washington state laws and found it was about ei0. That would mean Idaho would bear the entire load oS

THE L,ANDON CHOICES

OF course the field for specula-
ton as to Mr.. Landon's probable
Cabinet if he should be elected is
wide open for anybody to guess in.
The only thing that seems certain
at this stage is that if Mr.. Landon
comes to the White House, John
D. M. Hamilton, Chairman of the
Republican National Committee,
will come into the Cabinet in some
capacity. If tradition is followed,
he will be Postmaster General.
Spectators along these lines are
in quite. general agreement that the
man for Secretary of Agriculture is
Senator Lester ]. Dickinson or
Iowa.
If Mr.. Landon, assuming he be-
comes President, follows the prece-
dent set by Mr.. Roosevelt OF nam
ing a woman to a Cabinet post, the
best bet at this time Woul seem 10
be Miss Natalie Couch, of New
York, probably the nearest to being
national leader of organized Repub-
lican women. And she might as
well go to the Department of Labor
as anywhere else.
For Secretary of the Treasury:
these Washington gossips believe
that John H. McCarl, of Nebraska
former Controller General, would
do.
For Secretary of State the sugges-
ton is Offered that the Republican
best qualified for the job and mos
likely to be eager to get it is Sena'
tor Borah of Idaho. Foreign rela'

Many Projects Dropped,
But New Deal Agency
Will Not Be Liquidated
Hold Up Land Buying

-Washington.-Although the Re-
settlement administration has drop
ped 80 of its approved project:
and intends to drop more, an aide
to Secretary Wallace said that the
New Deal has no intention OF
',liquidating," the agency.
"While l cannot speak officially
for resettlement," said Paul Apple
by, secretary to the Agriculture
department head, II know as a
matter of person information that
President Roosevelt intends, on his
return from the drought areas, to
call upon Resettlement for an ex-
banded and intensified land plan
ming program"
Earlier c. B. Baldwin,, an assis-
tant administrator of the >Resettle-
ment organization, which Rexford
6. Tugwell heads, told reporters
the agency was revising all of its
budgets as a result of expenditures
required by unforeseen drought re-
lief needs.
He added a final announcement
of additional projects to be made
for about two weeks.
Baldwin said also that all prof.
ects upon which actual construc-
ton had been started would be
completed, because obviously we
could not let a community remain
half constructed"
From Appleby came an assertion
that, if the next Congress enacts
the Bankhead- Jones bill to create
a farmers home corporation to
help farm tenants buy homes, ini-
tial work in that field likely would
be done by the Resettlement adj
ministration.
Officials said, however, there
had been disagreement between re-
settlement and the Department of
Agriculture over which should
handle the proposed corporation.
Spokesman for Resettlement said
its land purchase program, along
with some other projects, including
model" suburban developments
not actually under way, would be
held in allegiance pending addition
al appropriations. They said the
government is obligated, however,
to buy 5000, 900 acres already I'M
der option.
Baldwin reported that, through
the change in plans, the resettle-
ment agency appeared able to as
sist a maximum of 10000
drought-hu families, in addition
to 600,O 900 families who were aided
by the agency last year.
He said about $70,OO0,000 to
75,OO0,0 900 now appeared avail
able from current funds for emer-
gency grants and loans in the
drought area.

Station Will Be
Placed Here In
Near Future
Strategic POST; - City
Lands r. c-olice
<$a'-e

Announcement was made this
week of the location in Salisbury
of one of the five transmitting
radio stations of the statewide
short-wave police radio systems au-
thorizel in North Carolina.
Others will be located at:
Raleigh +
WILLIAMSON
Elizabethton
Asheville.
Location of the system at Sails
bury was attributed to the fact
that Salisbury is probably the most
strategic point in North Carolina,
when considered in relation to the
of North Carolina, as
over half a million people reside
within a radius of SO miles Of Sal
isbury.
This station will be separate and
apart from the local radio police
system.
Each of the five units will be
specially constructed and will re-
quire Is Or 80 acres of segregated
land for the unit.
1t is understood that the Sails
bury unit will be constructed at the
Salisbury airport or nearby.
The station is expected to be in.
operation within 80 days from
September /.
An exceptionally large grounding
system will be required for each
unit, it is stated.
Tests were made over a month
ago, and Salisbury wasseleoted as
one Of the sites at that time.
Costs of the station will be paid
by the road betterment fund of
Carolina, it is stated.
1t will cost the State of North
Carolina approximately $4,000
to set up the system and around
$4,000 annually to operate the
same.

This is distinctly the political
off season in Washington, for most
of the best political prophets and
soothsayers are hanging around the
Presidential candidates or following
their trail through the country. But
there are still some who foregather
at the National Press Club and soma
of these have lately been putting in
their spare time figuring out the
Cabinet changes which are due after
the next presidential election.
If Mr.. Roosevelt is reelected it is
the general belief in Washington
that one of the first of his Cabinet
members to be changed will be Har-
old W. Ickes, Secretary of the In
terror. Mr.. Ickes probably will be
moved upstairs by being appointed
Controller General of the United
States, the post which has been va
can't since July l, when the term
of John McCarl expired.
Another Cabinet member who
may be shifted to some other post
is Dan Roper, Secretary of Com
MERGE. Mr.. Roper is personally
well advanced in years and is in
clined to take the ultra-conserya-
tive view of problems in his de-
partment. He has a strong politi-
cal following in the South.
