War Must Not Stop Before Victory

CHICAGO June - Assistant Attorney General Thurman Ar hold warned last night that Am ericans should beware of indiv- iduals seeking to stop the war when t is only half won.
 Arnold told a gathering of the American Bar Association in Chicago that once the nation was safe from losing the battle the task of winning it will seem like an unnecessary sacrifice to some people.
 Arnold added that the object ors would call for negotiated peace with paper treaties to end the war so that the Axis would remain a strong military power.

Hunters Increase In War Time

JUNEAU - Data covering the last World War show ed that there was a gradual increase in the number of hunters and sports fishermen during the war, and pronounced increase immediately following. lnforma- ton at hand indicates during the year 1922 the number of persons who seek hunting recreation in AL aska will be more than for the previous year
 Although 1t is true that the will reduce material ly or even stop the manufacture of sporting and ammunitions the best information obainable indcat- es that there are sufficient stocks of ammunition and arms in the hands of sportsmen and dealers to take of hunting needs for at least this year, and pro- baby for another year or longer.

 Demand for Liberalization
 As in most wars, a food short age existed during the last World War. It resulted in a strong demand for Liberalization of game laws so that Wildlife could be immediately utilized in large quantities. Evidence is not lacking to indicate that the movements were encouraged by persons desiring to profit by the commercial sale of game and also by those wishing to carry on unlimited hunting and fishing. The matter was presented to the United States Food Administra- tion, and after careful investi gation and study the administra- tion came to the conclusion that since Wildlife conservation laws had been needed in peace and had operated to maintain from year to year more abundant food supply, it was even more important that the restrictions should be continued and ade- quately enforced in wartime so as to provide a continuing source of food.

13,OOO Big-Game Animals

During the last year hunters bagged more than 13000 big-game animals consisting of moose caribou, deee. mountain sheep mountain goats, and brown, from ths excluding salmon feeding bears alono the southeast coast, totaed than 1300 tons, val ued in excess of million dollars Game birds such as ducks, geese, brant ptarmgan and grouse, taken by hunters throughout the Territory aggregated 50000 in number-acually l60 tons of dressed game birds ready for the table and having value of about $18000o In addition many thousands of hares squr- res, muskrats, beavers and other fur animals were used food by the rappers of outlying sections Along the coastal sections great number of seals Waruses and white whales gathered and stored for food by the native peoples Altogether, Alaska produced not less than 2,000 tons of meat gathered from wild sources during the year.

Diverse Views Held

Those engaged in Wildlife management have been urged by group to stop all hunting during the while another class of people advocate letting down the bars so as to permit killing of game to make supply of meat immediately available Between these two extremes in thought probably lies the best solu ton to the problem, for what is good game manage ment in times of peace should also be good game agement in times of
 Wildfe plays an important part in peace-time re- creation and should play an important part in war time recreation. Furthermore, good management in- cludes the wise harvesting of game crop which is re- movable from year to year provided sufficient breed ing stock is retained In addition to furnishing recrea- ton the proper harvesting of the game crop and does supply valuable food.

Over 12,OOO,OOO Fishermen

There are more than l2,000000 sport fishermen in the United States, and it is conservatively estimated that each of these will catch the average more than 70 pounds of fish per year In fact information ava- able shows that the average catch is above 30 pounds in many States in California it is known to exceed 50 pounds However, the basis of an average of only D pounds of sport fish annually for each fisherman there IS supplied in this country each year 100000 900 pounds of game fish Altogether this adds up to 435
 100000 pounds of food available from the annual har- vest of game animals game birds, and game fishes
 According to the Quartermaser Corps of the Unit ed States Army the meat allowance per soldier each day is Is ounces but the full quantity is not always the 435000,000 pounds of wild game and game fish used in American homes would replace enough beef pork, poultry commercial fish, and other meat to fur nish each year sufficient of this food to an army of 5,000000 men for more than TT days It is important

Figures Are Impressive

Throughout the nation the figures are far more inn pressing. According to w. E. Crouch, chief Division of Game Management, Fish and Wildlife Service:
 There more than 100000 bg-game animals, in- ciudng deer elk, moose, and antelope killed in the United States each year which at an average of only 90 pounds each dressed represents about 81 900 GOO pounds of meat. It is estimated that during the last year 15000000 waterfowl, 20000000 rabbits 5O00- GOO upland game birds and more than 4000 GOO other small game were killed which averaging only one pound each dressed, would supply an additional 54,- 100000 pounds of food This makes total of 135 000 GOO pounds of meat in game animals and birds, to which can be added the game fishes taken to replace meat needed in our war effort

The method selected for the seasonal items as listed above is in keeping with the firm policy of the Office of Price Administra- ion 10 hold virtually all prices connected with the cost of living 10 the highest levels reached in March until peace returns. The regulations tell retailer of any of these summer commodities to arrive at his summer prices by taking the lowest of the follow ing:
 l. The Average Cost to him of the commodity on purchases made between the close of his last years summer selling seq son and the opening of this years, or on May II, 1942. which ever date is later; or
 ?. The Lower of these prices, the retailer may then add his last years average percentage mark-up, then the average mark up in the department in which he sold the same or a similar com modity during the last summer selling season. The 1941 summer selling season is defined to mean a 90 day period in the 12 months ending March 31, 1942. during which the retailer sold 75% of the same or a similar seasonal commodity.
