Resolutions

RESOLUTIONS urging completion
OF remaining projects on the Cen
trail Montana highway at the ear
lest possible date to permit ini-
tiation of through travel" were
among those adopted at the annu-
al convention Of the association
Saturday at Richey. The resolu-
tions follow:
Whereas, after manv wears of
Illustration and unavoidable de-
lays, recent years have signaled
an accelerated program towards
completion Of the Central Montana
Highway, the states only unfin-
lshed east-weSt primary road. and
Whereas, the Blackfoot Canyon
projects which were supposed to
be completed by August 81 of this
year to break the last major bot
tleneck on the west end of the
highway are still only half done
and with progress reported as
poor due to lack of enough prop
per equipment and adequate
crews, and
Whereas, it will take full CO.
operation Of the Montana High
way Commission and the con
tractors to insure completion OF
the projects before the end OF
another travel season,
"Now, therefore be it resolved
that this association urge all pos
Sible attention to finishing these
projects at the earliest possible
date to permit initiation of thru
travel on the west end of the
highway, and
"Be it further resolved, that
similar attention be given by the
Montana Highway Commission to
the building Of those projects ne
cessary to complete the construc-
ton of the Sidney-Circle segment
of the highway, to the end that
the entire highway come into
its too long delayed use with

now, and

Sential.
I'VE must keep in constant
touch with the Montana Congress
slonal delegation and persuade
them to do their utmost to pro
vide an adequate financial high
way program by the Federal Gov
ernment.
Montana has invested 1921
million dollars in its constructed
and unconstructed highways in
the state Of Montana. Of this a.
mount, Is million dollars have
been spent upon the Central Mon
tana route. Highways must be
considered a sound investment
the same as any other business en-
terprlse. To be a good investment,
they must repay their construction
by earning gasoline tax and this
must be done by the users Of the
road. A road is useless as a reve-
nue. producer unless it is com
pleted. This road, when finished.

fingers by completing both the
east and west ends of this high
way.
"The Central Montana Highway
can well be classified as the short
est and most scenic road across
the state Of Montana. 1 have heard
some complaint upon the lack of
travel on this road and this is
only true because the road is not
completed. The gathering fingers
for traffic are yet unconstructed.
Let us look once again at the
economic resources served by the
highway.
cit is the shortest route by
many miles and the most scenic
across the state of Montana.
''It is the most important sec
ton of federal highway incom-
plete in Montana and is a grave
necessity to farming, stock raising
and oil interests of all eastern
Montana.
Hemember, this road serves
throughout its course more than
one-third of the population of
the entire state.
"AnyOne who has travelled
knows that the tourists welcome
welI-develOped forests, such as
we have to offer in the OvandO
area on the west end of this
highway. This road, when COM
pleted, will open up one of the
largest recreatiOnal areas in the
state of Montana as well as the
Northwest.
GAS we look forward after 25
years, there still remain problems
for this association to solve:
eve must strive to complete the
Sidney 80 Circle section in a period
of not more than this year and
next, at least to the status Of a
graded, graveled highway. This
section has been paying gasoline
tax since the birth of the high
way department and has had
no federal highway construction
up to the last two years. The
Federal Government road agency
realized the Importance of this
section and recommended placing
it upon the federal highway sys-
tenn of Montana. This was an
acknowledgment of its impor-
tance.
eve must start campaign of
cooperation with North Dakota
on the east and Idaho and Ore
gOn on the west for the con-
tinuatiOn of this highway from
the coast to Minnesota.
We must overlook no effort to
complete the highway first but
when completed, we must engage
upon a large advertising cam
paign to show the road itself and
its merits to those who travel it.
We have an advertising commit

RANGE: The little silvery "shiner"
known in Maryland as the gudgeon,
and called a smelt in some sections,
is the idol of both old and young
folks when it invades our fresh
water streams to spawn; they ar
rive in countless numbers in the
spring about the time the dog
wood and shadbush bloom, in the
tributaries of the Susquehanna,
Gupowder, PatapscO, and Potomac
River systems, where they are
caught on hook and line; sometimes
they are cooked and eaten on the
shores. Many Conservation organi-
cations give "Gudgeon Fishing
Parties" to kids of all sizes and
descriptions.
DESCRIPTION: The average
length of the gudgeon is about to
a inches, but "record" specimens
have been taken up to 6 inches;
the color is greenish on top with
silvery sides, paler in lower parts.
The young ones have lateral band
through eye to a dark spot at tail;
the fins are transparent.
BREEDING: Spawning evidently
occurs early in the spring; little
more is known about its breeding
habits.
HABITS: On the spring runs it is
readily taken on the smallest of
fishing hooks, generally on warm,
sunny days, using small pieces of

GUDGEON

garden worms for bait; in years
past one of the anglers favorite
bats, very attractive to the fish,
and a proper size to put on hook
and enter the fish's small mouth,
was the larvae of the house fly;
they were called "hunkie dories,"
and obtainable III gudgeon season
at most of the fishing tackle stores.
MANAGEMENT: Too little is
known about the breeding, winter
ing grounds. and movements of this
popular little fish, which is rarely
seen excepting in the two or three
weeks they are caught on hook and
line in the spring.
VALUE: Mainly for recreation
and sport, although they do supply
a small amount of food; when they
can be taken and kept alive they
provide an excellent bait for black
bass, pike (pickereD and other
game fish. Never marketed for
food.
Note: Another gudgeon is found
in same waters in Maryland
(HybogndtL1ts nuchdliS regius) but
in much smaller numbers; the two
species are so much alike the
average angler would not be able
to distinguish between the two
species, hence it would simply be
confusing to more than mention
it here.
