De 20 A complete sep aration ef th gam and commercial flahlrjg- interests of th state by th ereation. -f a- aeparat t commission to handle 'each will - b reoon mended to the special session of th Iegislatitre by Governor Oleott as a ear fof ' tha constant frfction and wrangling; which have marked th past history of th tat Cah and gam. eommission. . ' ' This aanouncement wa mad today by Oovsjoor Oloott aad uadoabtedly the swvernors view were breuaht to a head at this time by the hornet's nest which has been stirred np aa a result of the aotioa ef tha peasant commission to dts- misstna- from office William X JTnley, state biolorist and naturalist. If the leglaUrnre puts Into effect the governor's -ceoommeadeUons the ooraw merelal fishing- Interests need no longer be th object of suspicion on the part of the sportsmen and the epertemea win have a free hand to expend their own funds in such manner as wfil be to the best interests of th wild gam life of the state. "It is my intention to recommend to the legislature at the special session January U that an entirely new deal of tha card . be made tor th handling of Csh aad gam affairs, -both from the ancle of tne sportsmen aad the commercial fishermen." said Oovemor Oloott "I am convinced that factional difference and strife as to fish and game affairs win continue to the grave detriment of the wild life of the state unless a radical change is made. The sooner this Chang is effected the better. Flah and game constitute one of our greatest assets and consequently X con sider the situation sufficiently' import ant to make my proposed recommenda tions at the special session rather than delay them another year. ., . GOYZeUrOK'S RECOJUfEHDATIOH "Briefly, say receotnmenaatlon win b as follows : "Separate and divorce and completely commercial fishing and th sportsmen's interests by the creation of two dis tinct commission. "Create a commission of three mem bers to handle commercial fishing af fairs exclusively, with no power to in any manner Interfere with th inter ests of the spur maea, "Create a commission of five members to have sola Jurisdiction ever hunting and angling from the sportsmen's standpoint. ""Funds derived from hunting and angling; licenses should be expended solely under the control of the com mission created to protect the sports men's Interests, and the .commission governing eommercisi interests would have sole control of the expenditures of the funds raised for the benefit of commercial fishing. -The governor should b a member of neither commission. The manner of selection ef the- membership f each of these commission is a matter 1 desire to leave, entirely tn th hands f th legislature to determine. or FAxas rosmojr . "Mr decision to make, the recom mendations has been reached only after due deliberation, and after giving seri ous thought to th varkMas phase in volved. I had hoped to reserve my findings untn a final report was re ceived from the expert who has beea designated to examine Into the affairs of the present oommisslon. But 1 am sufficiently satisfied that, whatever, his report may be, the highest eagre 01 harmony and sff eettveaess cannot be attained under present conditions. "As it now stands, the governor is chairman of- the euimnlsekaa. - This is wrong te theory and in practice. The offices of the commission ar located In Portland. The executive has little knowledge of the commission's actual transactions, except that gained througB correspondence aad aa occasional visit at the regular monthly meetings. "X am net endeavoring' to evade dm snonsibUltie that so with my office. But when I have become eotmncea through actual experience Jthat any ad ministrative system of the state gov ernment is based cpon wrong principles I would be derelict in my duty if I faUbd to hasten to correct me evil. FEOFUE MXSTJjrMSTOO ' -With th cbalnnanahlp of th com mission lodged In tha chief executive, a general feeling- baa grown up that th chairman of th commission la respoa stbie for ail of its acts. This even goes to the extent that many people feel the cemmissioB should be mboervient to every wish of the executive. They fur; ther feel that unless there is such sub- servlencs the executive should straight- war exercise his power by dislodging the commissioner ana seiecang a new erona entirely. This condition Itself Is wrong. breed Ins: discontent and distrust tn the tnmds of large numbers of th people- who Oth erwise inherently ar actuated by a true aad sincere wish for better gam pro tection and propagation."
