Look Who's Claiming Credit For
Hating Elk Slaughter!

According to the Livingston Enterprise Cong DEwart'
Absaroke Conservation Committee claims credit fo
having persuaded the Department of Interior to for
program transpantng rather than saughterng surplus
elk in the Yellowstone Park herd
Such assertion counterfeit lead nckle In fact
it far from the truth should be considered worthy
try for national tall tales" honors.
To keep the record straight here the facts Instead
of this fakeaoo conservation committee (reported to be
primarily organization of large ockmen) putting forth
effort transplant elk has been the foremost advocate of
saughterng thousands of this most priced big animal
This committee record for saughterng 5000 head of
the Park herd and its action endorsed by the msnamed
Wldlfe Federation.
Credit for stopping this barbarous blood bath and bringing
about ranspantng rghuly belongs to the Rocky
Mountain SpOrSmens Associations Butte and Livingston
and the recently United Sposmen Association of
Gardiner with the aou cooperation of Cong Mansfield
Murray and Governor Bonner Had not been for the
statewide campaign of Indignation aroused by these sports
and the effective action by the abovenamed
public officials 5000 park elk would have been slaughtered
and there would have been no ranspanting program.
