WILDLIFE IN THE KEYS

AMERICAN ECHET

The American Egret, one of the
most beautiful of all our water
birds, is one Of those almost rem
dered extinct in former years by
the activities OF plume hunters.
This abominable trade was piled
for years in order to supply the
demand of fashion for the aigret-
ties or plumes which the bird
wears in the nesting season. This
latter fact made the killing of
the great birds more of All afro
city than ii might otherwise have
been, for, since the plumes are
carried only in the nesting sea-
son, ii follows that the killing was
done at that time, thus leaving
the helpless young birds to die in
the nests in hundreds of thou
sands.
Anyone who has seen a shot
out rookery" will not soon forget
the pitiful, starved bundles of
skin and bone left in the nests
either dead or dying. beginning
mutely to the last for the food
and water which only the old
birds could have given them.
And those parent birdk -forlorn

While the bird was yet live
One would think that. in the
United States, public indignation
would have put a stop to such
atrocities. but, far from that, the
devotees of fashion continued To
clamor for the nuptial dress of
the great Egret, and persisted in
wearing these emblems of inhu-
man butchery until stringent laws
with heavy penalties attached
finally forced them to forego
whatever pleasure they derived
from the possession of ''plumes"
Today. the American Egret is. we
hope. out of danger, but there is
still need for constant effort and
watchfulneSs. There are still
those who kill for the mere love
of killing: there are still those
who insist that the Egret is good

realize the value of living beauty
in the world. Those who do
know what ID means should make
every effort TO protect all our
bird life. never forgetting that the
agencies of destruction are all

guns. sometimes with useless
drainage protests, again with
schemes Cor the drying up of river

ENVOY DENIES SPLIT
OF CHINESE CHIEFS
Withdrawal Of Troops From
Certain Cities Is Part of
Plan, Wang Saws.

Chinese Ambassador Wang yester-
day issued a statement denying reports
there has been split between Gen
Chang Kai-shek, commander in chief
of the Chinese Army, and Gen. Ii
Tsun-jen.
His statement said. in part:
THE plan calling for withdrawal
from certain cities which are stra-
logically difficult to defend is a part
of the whole plan agreed upon by all
the Chinese military leaders and dove
tails perfectly with the pronounced
policy Of the Chinese government to
fight protracted war and to meet
the Japanese Army only in the places
the topography of which will not give
great advantage to their mechanical
equipment
1T has been more than once proved
in history that the deep penetration
of an invaded country does not neces-
sarily give advantage to the invading
army. The Japanese may soon find
out that their deep penetration into
the interior of China, coupled with
their employment of inhuman meth
ods Of warfare by bombing ruthlessly
the open towns, will find q Chinese
people increasingly united and more
determined than ever to resist them"

SENATORS STUDY
ELLIOTT CHARGE
May Ask Congress to Void
Navy's Contract With
Engineering Firm.

ry the Associated Press.
Members of the Senate Appropria-
tions Committee today discussed the
advisability of asking Congress to in
validate a Navy Department contract
which the General Accounting once
termed illegal"
In report to Congress yesterday, r..
N. Elliott. acting controller general,
said the contract appeared 'tanta-
mount to gift of public property" and
highly irregular and Objectionable. !"
The contract was entered into last
September / by Secretary Swanson
and the Wellman Engineering Co., de-
scribed in the report as successor to the
Wellman-Seaver-Mo Morgan Co. of Cleve-
land.
A. E. Gibson, head of the Wellman
concern, said in a statement at Cleve-
land there was nothing irregular about
the agreement.
The Wellman-Seaver-Mo Morgan Co.
contracted in 1920, Mr. Elliott's report
said, to pay the Navy $4,000 for
certain Government buildings and
equipment in Akron, but defaulted on
its s26, 100 annual payments in 1882
Under the new contract, Mr. Elliott
reported, the unpaid balance Of
1924. 900 would be reduced by $4,000 a
year in quarterly installments without
interest.
The default under the original
agreement" Mr.. Elliott said, "the
change of the corporations name and
the signing of a new agreement, ap-
parently for the benefit Of the Well
man Engineering Co., cast a doubt
upon the validity of the new agree
ment from the standpoint of the Gov
ernment to such extent as to appear
highly irregular and Objectionable.
The Senate referred the report to
the Appropriations Committee.
