Restoration
Drive On This Week


1t was about fifty years ago that
the first systematic efforts to. save
wildlife in this country were start
ed Those efforts consisted of laws
limiting the number of fish and
game that could be taken, and the
seasons for taking them Such laws
were badly needed, but they didn't
even begin to solve the problem of
Americas disappearing Wildlife.
Wildlife Week, which began by
proclamation of President Roose-
Welt Sunday, March 20, will call the
attention of America to the real
causes of the disappearance of our
wildlife. The changes that civillza-
ton has brought about have doomed
many species, and brought many
others to a point of dangerous scar
city
Some of these species are known
to present-day Americans only by
name. The giant sea-mink of
Maine, the Labrador duck, the great
. aux, the passenger pigeon = these
disappeared before our generation
came on the scene.
| Few people are aware that the
: United States once had brilliant
orange and yellow paroquet that
was plentiful as far north as Phila-
delphia years ago They were killed
for plumage and for food and be-
cause they ate fruit, and in 1904
the last one was destroyed in Flor
ida. The last heath hen, the East
ern cousin of the prairie chicken
!, died some years ago.
So, after all, everybody has vital
interest In restoration.
The purpose of the National Wild
) life Federation is to bring together
all organizations of people who love
outdoor America into an alliance
! a united force. Cooperation is the
whole secret of successful wildlife
restoration throughout The country
Our state conservation department
agencies. President Roosevelt, ir

( lis all to give special thought to tht
: problem of the nations outdoor re
sources
A great blue heron came to ;
tragic end on Long Island the othel
day 1t first stepped into muskra
trap on the marsh, then flew agains
the windshield of a car, breakin,
its neck and smashing the wind
shield.
New York dailies printed the story
of the birds finish.
Everyone is touched by the ap
peal of Wildlife. Although there
wouldn't seem to be very much con
nection between the death of the
great blue heron and the story Of
disastrous floods and Americas dust
bowl, yet they both have to do with
the great drama of earth and water
in which mankind is vitality con.
cerned
The National Wildlife Federation
keeps saying that when we restore
for Wildlife, we restore for human
life. Wildlife Week, proclaimed By
President Roosevelt to begin las
Sunday, will be rally of all or
CARNATIONS concerned with Amer
ica's outdoor resources. 1t will cal
attention to what is being done b,

activities are being arranged.

called upon to join in nationa

Journal of Great Falls tells about
the thrilling experience IN It's last
issue as follows
In the winter of 1875 Charley
Rowe. an early-day Montana freight
or. started from Fort Benton Tor
the Cypress hills in Canada with
six-muie team load of merchandise.
The trip was to bring him III cents
cargo pound, each way 1t lookeo
like profitable enterprise. he
made the 200 miles to the cypress
hills with his load all right. but the
return was disastrous. He nearly
froze to death, nearly starved TO
death. lost his freight outfit valued
at 81 900. his return load of buffalo
robes and came large part OF the
way on foot, undergoing hardshlps
from which he never fully re-
covered
After delivering his load IN the
Cypress hills, he loaded for the re-
turn trip to Fort Benton. Before he
got started. however, two and a half
feet of snow fell He and other
frelghters there waited for chi
nook. but none came. When feed
for their livestock ran low they
were forced to start anyhow, for II
they remained their stock would
starve to death and they figured
they might as well die on the road
to get back
There were five in the party when
they left Cypress hills for Fort Ben
ton, Capt. Nelse Valleaux Matt
Adams, Bill Murray, Jim Cook and
Rowe. They had 30 horses and
mules in the outfit. Twenty of the
animals they drove ahead of RoWe's
mules to break trail in the snow
for the wagons to follow. In Is
DAYS they made 100 miles. They rar
out of grub except for one sack O
Indian flour from which they made
dough gods.
Blizzard Strikes
One morning Rowe sighted three
buffalo on a side hill about three
miles from camp and went to see i.

The next night when they mad
camp, they took extra precautions
putting up their tepee for no pal

to go after wholesale trade as we'll as

progressed to the point where another
move was advisable. So in the fall of
1901 operations were transferred to
the present site at 1884 New York ave-

Novelist Loser,

In Tax appeals
BY the Associated Press.

The Board Of Tax Appeals ruled
yesterday that when Vina Delmar, the
novelist, loses money at roulette she
merely plays for recreation, but when
her husband, Eugene Delmar, loses at
chemin-de-fer, card game, he makes
a bad investment.
The Delmars appealed from re-
fusal Of the Internal Revenue Bureau
to allow income tax deductions for
$500 gambling losses incurred jan
uary and 2, 1888, at Aqua Caliente,
Mex Mr.. Delmar lost $1,000 at the
card game and the board said he could
deduct this because he played with
an anticipation Of profit. His wife
lost $500 on the wheel and the board
said she could not deduct the sum
because she played for fun.
The board did not explain how 1t
reached the conclusion that the novel;
ist was not expecting to win when she

SPAIN NA|D|SASKED
Of BRITISH LABOR
Engineers Union Requests
Voluntary Overtime to
Aid Loyalists.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, April 6-The Amalga-
mate Engineers Union which baked at |
the governments request for co-opera-
ton in Britain's speed-up rearmament,
appealed to workers today to con-
tribute voluntary overtime on behalf
OF the Spanish government.
A union manifesto declared over
time work would be used to manufac-
ture non-armament goods for immedi-
ate shipment to Spanish government
whose workers could save British
workers."
j. c. Little, president of the A. E. u,
declared both the British government
and its military and naval advisers
knew the accelerated rearmament pro-
gram was intended partly to provide
against Hitler and Mussolini not keep
Spain"
Mr.. Little declared the better way to
block the German and Italian leaders
was to help the Spanish government.
Ambulance Work Included.
The work referred to in the mani
festo included supplying and repair
ing ambulances for government Spain.
The British government sent notes
to both Spanish factions urging "tol-
Grafton" in the treatment of political
prisoners and hostages in the event
of further government retreats on the
Catalonian 'front.'
The Barcelona government was told
Britain hoped all possible steps would
be taken to prevent looting or 'acts
of revenge on political prisoners and
hostages at Barcelona and elsewhere"
Britain's agent at Burgos was in
structed to tell insurgent authorities
the British government sincerely trust
they will insure that their adherents
refrain from taking the law into their
own hands and that strict discipline
will be maintained pending establish
ment Of Gen. Frances administration
in the districts concerned"
Cabinet Studies Plea.
The cabinet studied the Spanish gov
ernment's appeal for arms today, but
informed quarters predicted there was
no possibility that Great Britain would
abandon her policy of non-interven-
tion.
The Spanish government protested
last night both to Britain and France,
charging Germany and Italy were aid
ing the insurgents and embargoes on
munitions for government Spain were
an appalling and dangerous injus-
tice."
