BELATED PROGRAM
8P1
UZSZ2.
By CHARLES V. STANTON
A proffram designed to produce better game law en
forcement in Orepron is in the formative stage. Members
of the Oregon Game commission and State Police depart
ment have held preliminary meetings to outline broad
I policies of cooperation. Details are being worked out be
: tween staff members of the two departments.
The surprising thing about this program is that it was
not undertaken years ago. The action was so obviously in
dicated it is hard to understand why it has been neglected
so long. .
The suite's sportsmen and conservationists have been
. intensely dissatisfied with inadequacy of game law
. enforcement. Interim legislative committee studies two
years ago developed the fact that complaints of unsatis-
factory law enforcement constituted a statewide gripe. Yet
few complaints were aimed at individual officers and men
: of the state police. It was generally agreed by sports
men that the policemen were trving to do a good job, but
were handicapped by lack of direction from top levels,
where game law enforcement has been treated as an un-
wanted stepchild.
Because of this condition, sportsmen have been de
manding transfer of game law enforcement from the state
police to the game commission. A bill calling for such
, transfer was narrowly defeated in the last legislature.
Transfer Not Necessary
We disagree personally with many of our sportsmen
friends that it is necessary to transfer authority to obtain
satisfactory game law enforcement. We believe the de
sired ends ran be achieved within the present state police
structure. Itefore this can be done, however, it will
be necessary to make a few changes. Most essential to
an adequate game law enforcement program is a change
in mental attitude by the top brass of the police depart
ment. Talking with high officers of the state police we have
heard much criticism of the game commission. We have
listened to fault-finding concerning personnel of the de
partment, management methods, rules and regulations
passed by the commission, ridicule of policies, and criti
cism in general.
We realize that the game department has its faults. It
doubtless can make improvement in administration. It
perhaps has some misfit employes. But that condition is
equally true of any other department.
The point is that we cannot expect an adequate game
law enforcement policy while state police officers who di
rect that policy are actually antagonistic toward the game
commission.
New Program May Bring Changes
Apparently little effort has been made toward mutual
understandings in the past. Certainly there has been little
success in the matter of cooperation. It should have been
an easy matter to have worked out a cooperative program
long ago.
We now are Informed that the two departments are
doing the thing they so obviously should have undertaken
in the beginning. They are sitting around tables trying
to draw up formulas for cooperative effort and to work
out the mechanics to better serve their reseotive policies.
Our existing police organization cannot go all the wav
in game law enforcement. The State Police department
is set up along military lines. It is designed to appre
hend violators AFTKK crimes have been committed. It
is not designed to prevent crime by education or to work
in fields of conservation and preservation, except by hold
ing up penalties imposed upon violators as a deterrent
to future violations. When justices of the peace fail in
their rooperntion. letting game law violators escape with
token penalties, the state police enforcement svstem falls
flat.
This situation cannot be remedied in the new program I f'lnPl n " P"" houi that
of cooperation now under consideration. It will be pos-I Wllh " R",, ,hould
sible, however, for both departments to work in closer Britain want another mnlii bit-1
harmony. It is proposed to bring about closer relations be-! dollar loan from the r. s. i
tween game department emploves and state noliremen in!Th,t "''M the Socialist, deride

ifies, exchange policy and management information, and
more fully utilize the rapacity of the enforcement division.
It will not be hard to work out the mechanics of a
cooiwrative policy. It will be harder to break down men
tal barriers the existing antagonisms, suspicions and dis
trust. If both departments and ihe game department
is equally responsible for corrections will wipe the si.ite
clean and start anew, with determination to do a real job.
we believe an adequate game law enforcement program
can result.

man and Acheson have gotten
away with silencing foreign policy
critics Dy caustic remarks or
threats of reprisals. Military and
congressional leaders, disgusted
with Communist coddling and obe
dience lo the British point o( view,
were always reminded that the
President and his secretary of
Slate handled foreign affairs for
the nation.
It required a hurricane of anger
and disgust from the American
people before Congress in effect
lold the President and Acheson lo
pipe down. Now Congress is selling
up rules and regulations about
what can and will bt done with
American dollars and fighting men.
Even the British understand
American disgust better than Ihe
secretary of Slate. Normally it
would seem Ihat an American
secretary of Stale would be the firt
lo detect public opinion trends
In the U. S., but in the case
of Acheson it was Ihe British who

On what grounds does the fed

Well, it says that when the West

geared completely into the volume
