There were cries from Congress

the Philippine Constabulary and
a civilian were reported killed.

The first striped bass taken
with rod and reel from the surf
along the Bare County, North
Carolina coast in 20 years was
landed last Sunday by w. j. Duffy
of Atlantic City. N. J. 1t weighed
three pounds. Duffy baited with
cut mullet. While striped bass
rarely are taken from the surf in
this area, they are one of the
principal game fish in nearby
sounds during the late autumn
with trolling the usual method of
hooking them.
Officials of the National Rifle
Association claim that individual
caution, not remedial legislation
is the only way to insure safe
hunting. They decry the shouts
of alarm now going up at the
deaths among hunters, and cite
statistics to show that a man is
safer deer hunting in the woods
than chasing cake of soap around
a bath tub. Unquestionably the
matter of safety in woods and
fields during the hunting season
is one calling for much education
of the hunting public.
Unfortunately, through laxity OF
investigation in hunting accidents
in the majority of States, there is
not sufficient information avail
able on which to base sane laws
pertaining to individuals or the
general situation. One of the big
drives of the NRA next year. ac-
cording to officials of the organi-
cation. will be, to talk State game
officials. insurance companies and
safety organizations into adopting
a common method of recording
deaths. Until adequate statistics
are available, it is useless to pass
further laws.
