NO THREAT
10 QUAIL -

a recent bulletin of the
WilGlifa M2ragcmert Inst
tute, appeared a stcry O.
Quail management and quai
hunting. We feel that this ar.
ticle is of interest to every
bird hunter in Mississippi
Here is the article as it APP
peared in the news bulletin.
1.-The number of quail
not hunters determines
how many of the sporty game
birds are bagged each aut-
umn. according to the Wild
life Management Institute.
When weather and food CO.
operate to give the birds a
good nesting season, hunters
can expect to bag more IN
the fall. And fewer are taken
when nesting does not go
well. But no matter whether
the birds are up or down,
hunters take considerably less
than even the most conServa-
tive bag and possession linn
its allow.
That hunters are no threat
to resident game species has
been known to wildlife biogo-
logists for many years. Proof
has been gathered time and
time again in careful studies
by the Arizona Game and
Fish Department in the Arac-
le Junction and Pinnacle Peak
areas: Probably the most
important fact turned up was
that the percent of the quail
population taken 10y hunters
is directly proportional to the
size of the quail population
When quail numbers are
down, not only less quail are
shot but a smaller percent OF
the population is taken
The significance of this is
obvious; when quail numbers
are low we need not close the
season to prevent extermina
ton of local populations, {
fear frequently expressed by
concerned sportsmen. We now
know that as numbers dror
and quail become more diff
cult to find, the bulk of thu
hunters simply give up. Thos;
who do persist in hunting ge'
little for their efforts eXcep
exercise and fresh air ant
give up long before they be
come a threat to the basi'
population.
when we consider that ma
tural mortality eliminate.
more than so percent of tn
population each year, we cal
understand why the popula
ton varies so much betwee.

Yes, you can see the pay-off Of the two party
system in such states as Kentucky, Michigan,
Pennsylvania, California, New York, etc.
where two parties bid for the votes of an organized
minority. The organized minority, holding the
balance of power, yields influence out of all
proportion to its numbers. And conservative citizens
still a majority in America-see their cities SCARED
by crime, their development stymied by socialist
schemes and high taxes, their governments inti-
trated by alien ideologies.
This is the kind Of two-party system these So
called Republicans" seek to establish in Missis-
sippi.

Republicans and the possibility Of a growing Negro

tive majority.

Congress today for supplement
tai appropriations of 1927, ,670,-
280 to finance pay increases for
Federal employees, and another
S3,C54,3OO for District Of Co.
lumbia employees.
The requested appropriations

last month.
The White House said the

during the current 1868 fiscal
year ending June 80 to meet
pay raises approved by Con-
gress last year. including in

The White House estimated
the pay increases will cost the
Federal Government a total of
1898 million for the current fis-
cal year. with s29O.5 million
or AZ per cent-being absorbed
from available funds.
The remaining s402.5 million
requiring supplemental appro-

ing other requirements, as well

Mr.. Day vetoed this idea.
The Postmaster General feels
that it would cost an additional

that the department has made
a major concession TO employees
by measuring their work output
only one week in every four,

CONTINUING CLAIMS DE-

NIED-The United States Court
of Claims has issued decision
which will deny Federal en-

from their Jobs any back-pay
benefits other than the initial
award If they aren't restored
to their jobs.
The Court OF Claims has the
power to order back pay for
employees wrongfully or illegally
removed from their jobs, but 1t
doesn't have the authority to
order the employees restored to
their positions. Only action by
n regular Federal court can ac-
complish this.
Consequently, even when the
Court Of Claims awards Fed

the period during which they
were wrongfully removed, they
have no guarantee that they
will be restored TO their Jobs
Some agencies have taken the
employees back following a
Court Of Claims decision in
their favor; others have not
The question then arose
whether these employees who
did not regain their Federal
