MORE PEOPLE GO
HUNTING, FISHING
Figures For Last Year In
Montana Show Cash Gain
Of $4,000 For Fees

The population of Montana may
be decreasing, if the guesses are
right about what the census takers
will find this year, but many more
people went hunting and fishing
in the Treasure state last year
than ever before. They, residents
and non-residents, paid license fees
totaling $S05,938, according to the
fish and game commission, which
was nearly $4,000 more than any
previous year. Out-of-state peo-
pie paid quite a good-sized share
of the total.
All states showed gains in both
numbers of licenses sold and
amounts of money received. The
fishing and hunting that was done
last year in the U. S. A. and the
large number of people who did it
seem to prove that John and Mary
Public no longer consider them
selves indoor people, especially
west of the Mississippi.
A breakdown of Montana's
grand total of $805,938 shows that
$66,100 was paid by non-residents
for big game permits and $56,750
fol- nonresident three-day fishing
permits. Nonresident eason fish
ing licenses totaled $38,140; ante
lope permits, $19,660; special deer
licenses, &,375; special moose per-
mits, $1,000; nonresident bird IL
,enses. $780,; and special elk IL
lenses, $135.

cline of 38,456 in nine years, or
60 per cent. 1t was also a de.
cline of 27,889 from 1920, or a
loss of 81 per cent. Montana's
total was 548,889 in 1920, 537,606
in 1880, and 559,456 in 1910.
When the figures are available
for 1850 it is expected that the
United States as a whole will
show an increase of about a ,000,-
OOC in the 30 years since 1920. The
nation had los, 71O,62O in 1920,
122,775,046 in 1880, 131, 669, 275 in
1910 and an estimated lat, 10000
in 1949. The percentage of gain
was 1913 from 1920 to 1949 and
1928 from 1910 to 40.

Hirohito and StuIin

In demanding that Emperor Hirohito of
Japan be tried as war criminal, the
Soviet Union has resorted to another
propaganda maneuyer in its recently
stepped-up drive, In Asia and elsewhere, to
befuddle people and keep the free world
off balance.
The demand is obviously phony one.
AS the State Department has just noted,
it runs counter to an express understand
ing"-long ago acquiesced in by the Rus
sians-that Hirohito is to be exempt from
war-crime charges unless the Far Eastern
Commission DEGREES otherwise. The COM
mission is dominated by the United States,
and the Kremlin is well aware of the fact
that neither we nor most of the other
members will ever consent to trying the
Emperor on the strength of the trumped-
up Soviet accusations.
Why then the accusations? Obviously
their objective is propagandistic. For one
thing, in the words of the State Depart
ment, their timing and content" strongly
indicate that they are designed "to divert
attention from Soviet failure to repatriate
or otherwise explain the fate of over 370,-
600 japanese prisoners detained in Soviet
held territory" For another thing, they
seem calculated to make political capital
for the Communists in China, where the
people-though overwhelmingly non Red
continue to be generally bitter toward
Hirohito and Japan.
The hypocrisy here is monumental, and
so is the irony The thing reeks with bad

cYtor at the Tokyo trials and now an at
