Duck Herdinq
To Continue

Continued from Page u
the evening tnat ne felt certain that
the sportsmen of the country will
contribute to any fund raised to
prevent the duck damage to crops.
At this point County Agricultural
Commissioner B. A. Harrigan said
that the growers of the valley have
agreed to underwrite the airplane
herding phase of the experiment un-
til its success or failure is definitely
established Horn said the planes
kept the birds pretty well concen-
trated on Salton sea but some of
the farmers wanted to know if they
could be driven on south via Mexico.
Horn said the federal wildlife serv-
ice would not interfere with them
being removed from the sea. Horn
hoped the ducks will leave the sea
when hungry and eat the food
planted and scattered for them in
adjacent areas instead of destroy
ing crops.
It was agreed that a good way to
raise money to feed TIE ducks would
be to add 81 to the duck stamps
every hunter must buy. It was esti-
mated that this would raise around
100000 to $91 900 in California.
Some of the farmers expressed the
opinion that sportsmen would object
to that plan.
will the government keep up this
feeding program Ralph Gilbert
asked. They can stop if they want
to and can close the area to shooting
whenever they wish, leaving us in
worse shape than we were before.
This feeding program will make
Imperial valley a paradise on earth
for ducks"
A special committee to study the
two-crop insurance bills recently
passed by Congress was appointed
and instructed to prepare a bill
segregating the Wildlife depreda-
tions insurance from the crop dam
age program. The committee is COM
posed of Harrigan, Bailey, Rudolph
Miller, Baxter Love'and and Gilbert.
The committee will report to Sim
clair when their work is ready for
presentation and Sinclair will call
meeting so the whole group may
consider it.
Grain, hay, rice and flax growers,
farm bureau and tie board of super
visors will be asked tc indorse the
committees plans to rid the valley
of wildlife depredations.

for an hour with their hands
clasped over their heads.
Il thought something was wrong,
Summers told correspondents bit
terly. And as We were standing
there, one German soldier moving
past us on a tank pulled out a
pistol and emptied it into our fell
lows.
And then the dirty opened
up on us from tanks and armored
cars with machine guns.
I'VE hadn't tried to run away or
anything. We were just standing
there with our hands up and they
tried to murder us all"
Summers said those who escaped
the first blast of fire fell down
among the dead and wounded, SIM
ulating death. But the Germans
weren't finished. They walk e d
through the heaped-up bodies shoot
ing anyone who showed signs of life.
About 25 Americans were still
alive after that. They lay perfectly
still for another hour until finally
the Nazi tanks moved off, with some
of the IS men shooting into the
piles of dead as they passed. One
tank remained behind, and the sur
vivorS decided after a whispered
conference to make a break for a
nearby clump of trees.
Ten of them were moved down
before they reached the trees. The
rest escaped and finally got back
to their own lines.
