The Department of the Interior this week urged that every water fowl hunter taking to the field this fall equip himself with thor ough knowledge of the ducks and geese he seeks
 This years waterfowl regulations again stress the need for hunters to recognize their quarry before they pull the trigger. Enforcement officials probably will take a dim view of excuses that a hunter shot the wrong duck by mistake" the Department said.
 To assist hunters this year, the Department has published a han dy 24-page color waterfowl iden- tification guide, Ducks at a Dis tance." Copies can be purchased for 25 cents each from the Super intendent of Documents, Govern ment Printing Office, Washington D. C. 204O2.

GRADE OSCILLATION -

Government-the practice Of
upgrading Federal employee sal-
aries by giving them higher
grades.
The general average grade
level Of Government employees

during the past decade. Part of
1t, at least, is due to changes in
technology and the greater
proportion Of professional. en-
cheering, scientific and admin
