LAST DAY OF HUNTING SEASON"
Under the Federal law, which pre
scribes seasons on migratory same
birds, January 31 was the last day
on which wild ducks and geese, coots
gallinules, and WIlBon snipe or Jack
snipe could be hunted anywhere In
the United States. The Federal law
provides, however, that the carcas
ses of birds, killed during the open
season may be possessed for an ad
ditional period of 10 days following
the end of the season, provided the
State or local laws do not prohibit
it. The possession of carcasses of
wild ducks, geese, and other migra
tory game birds In cold-storage
plants after February 10 renders the
owners subject to prosecution In the
Federal courts. The law is admin
istered under the United States De
partment of Agruculture by the Bio

LAHOR AND AMERICANISM
Hon. Albert J. Beverldge of In

"Americanism means that every
man may work for his living; thut
every man should work for his liv

the peaceful enjoyment of the fruits
of his toil and that all the strength
of our popular, representative gov
ernment will shield every man In
the exercises of those elemental
rights."
