W|LD[|FE MONEY
USE WORRIES j. s.
Joint Hunting and Fishing
Licenses Unprovided
for in Bill.
By Tie Associated Press.

By Tie Associated Press.
The Government has just promised
States about 100000 annually for
wild-life projects, but Federal au-
thorities are in quandary about
splitting the big melon.
The State-aid offer became ef-
fective Thursday when President
Roosevelt signed bill authorizing
distribution of the money obtained
annually from excise taxes on fire.
arms. shells and cartridges
But here's what is causing brow
scratching:
The bill provides that one-half the
money be divided according TO the
number of hunting licenses each
State sells. Many States, however,
have combination hunting and fish
ing license, and its going to be diff
cult to figure which were bought by
hunters only. All States may have
to start selling separate licenses
Moreover, the money is earmarked
for wild life. Now. wild life covers
a lot Of ground and water Authori-
ties think the money was intended
for upland game and water fowl
projects, but the fur animal inter-
ests and the fishery people may de-
eide they are due for a slice, too.
I'VE may have to 60 to the Attor-
ney General for an opinion"
spokesman said. Maybe Congress
will have to do over the bill to cIari-
fy it,
Federal wild-Ife experts are par
ticularly pleased with two provisions
Of the bill. One demands that par
ticipating States use their hunting
license money solely for wild-life pur-
poses. Some States do not now turn
over the entire revenue to the game
commissions.
Another enables the Federal Gov
eminent to help conserve and de-
velop resident and upland game spe-
cies. Previously the Government.
with authority only over migrants, had
built its conservation program chiefly
around water fowl.
The passage and signing Of the bill
was victory for hunters, who have
felt Federal taxes paid for their sport
should be converted to wild-life bet
terment.
