WATER FOWL LESS
BY 20 MILLIONS

WASHINGTON, June 10 R -
D.. Ira N. Gabrielson, Fish and
Wildlife Director, today told
House committee on Wildlife Con-
servation he will mot recommend
any changes in regulations that
would increase the kill'' on water
fowl next season.
The group headed by Rep. Rob-
ertson D-Va.) opened hearings
on proposed five-point legislation
dealing with wildlife conservation.
There has been an increase in
the number of hunters, Gabrielson
said, while the water fowl popula-
ton for 1915 shows a drop Of TO-
900, 900. An additional increase of
at least 80 per cent in hunters is
expected when the war ends.
Five points under consideration
by the committee:
Enlarged jurisdiction of the
Fish and Wildlife Service over
Wildlife resources of impounded
waters.
2-Public shooting on portions of
wildlife refugees purchased with
duck stamp money.
3-Issuance of permits to feed
migratory birds.
A three-months open season
on ducks and geese, with zones
fixed irrespective of state lines.
5-The use of limited number
of live decoys.
Gabrielson said he generally
favored" the first two points but
the issuance of permits to feed
migratory birds would create an
almost impossible enforcement
problem. He feared the last two
suggestions would increase the
total kill" which he opposes.
Frederick c. Lincoln, Wildlife
Service Distribution and Migration
head, testified that the drop in the
number of ducks may be att1ibu-
table partially to more birds flying
to Mexico, the Caribbean and
South America.

AT any rate, most OF the Minor
Leagues are having pennant races

The most notable exception is in
