Mornings Boy Track
In Excellent
Condition for Races

Manning's Bay track is now
something of which st. Croix
can be proud, and the work is
not yet finished. Yesterday
hundreds of cars and not less
than a dozen BUSES lined up
in orderly fashion and still
there was room for hundreds
more.
The New st. Croix Turf
Club is responsible for this i'm
provement but, almost all the
officers were loud in the
praise of the work of Laurence
Merrill, who worked day and
night and at his own expense,
the mere love of the sport,
to make the track what it is
and the race a success.
The condition of the track
was so good and all arrange
ments for the grand stand,
booths, that it is
much work and close
supervision went into it. Ali

Game officials of the Division of

This same program that is proving

The law provides that although
quail will be treated as a gamebird,
there will be no open hunting sea-

Since winter cover and food are the
limiting factors in maintaining and

Quail Are On Game Bird List But
You Can't Shoot Them For Ten Years

Ohio's quail will go back into the
game-bird classification this year,
following 36 years of controversy as
to whether the "bobwhite" would re-
main on the songbird list.
Legislation making the change eff
fective was passed at the last ses-
sion of the Ohio legislature and will
become effective yet this year. How
ever, no open hunting season will be
permitted for the next 10 years, to
give the Ohio department of conser-
vation an opportunity to increase
the states quail population.
For the past 36 years no bird or
ANIMAL in Ohio has provided so much
material for "cracker-barrel" and
"curbstone" conversation. Until 1913
the quail was popular game bird
in Ohio but the legislature that year
officially placed it on the songbird
list.
No ones knows just why the bird
was ever made songbird but every
two years the legislature battled
with the question but the quail al
ways came through as a songbird.
So long as the bird remained a
songbird the Division of Conserva-

! Nehru Lunches Today
With U. n. Leaders,;
To Give Talk Tonight
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-Prime
Minister JaWaharlal Nehru of
India is carrying to top United
Nations leaders today his argu-
ment that the world never can
nope for peace until Asia sees
better days.
He planned an off the-record
talk on the subject at a reception
scheduled by the United Nations
Correspondents Association for
the forenoon and will meet top
U. N. officials at a luncheon session
at noon.
Tonight. Mr.. Nehru is to address
the Foreign Policy Association at
a dinner meeting.
Nationalism primary Urge"
The Indian statesman in two
successive major speeches has
made clear that to him the cold
war between East and West seems
less menacing to world peace than
the issues of colonialism, racial
discrimination and poverty in Asia
He dwelt on those topics yes
terday in an address to the Over
seas Press Club of America, an
organization of American news
reporters who have served in for
eign lands.
Next to hunger" Mr.. Nehru
said, "nationalism in Asia still is
the primary urge" He said the
Orient ultimately must play a
very important part in world af-
fairs" have a bigger share of
the worlds wealth, and rid itself
OF foreign rule.
He predicted that -four or five
years" would see the last vestige
OF alien rule end in Asia.
Bars Economic Imperialism"
India, he said, is willing to give
certain guarantees to American
investors who would help her to
finance industrial growth, but in
return would insist that no i'm
plication Of economic imperial
ism be allowed to enter the
deals.
He has met with several Amer
lean industrial and financial fig
ures. and had dinner last night
with Floyd G. Blair, vice pres
ident OF the National City Bank
OF New York. Mr.. Nehru said
he would stop here Saturday, en-
route from Boston to Ottawa, and
have luncheon with Winthrop
Aldrich, chairman of the board
OF the Chase National Bank of
New York.
