The des truction of one of the largest, if not the largest, federal bird reservation in the United States is threatened, ac cording to an announcement made here today, by T. Gilbert Pearson, of New York City, secretary of the Na tional Association of Audubon Socie ties. The reservation threatened Is at Lake Malheur in southeastern Ore gon, and is a breeding place for hun dreds of thousands of wild ducks, wild geese and other water fowl. Application has been made to the federal authorities for permission to drain the lake In order to secure the land it covers. The lake is six miles wide, by fifteen miles long, and is about six feet deep. It supplies an ideal breeding place for wild water fowl, Mr. Pearson says, and, therefore it attracts wild geese and ducks from Canada in large numbers. Its des ruction, he declares, will leave thous ands of young water fowl without home. Secretary Pearson has taken the matter up with the officials of the General Land office who have promis ed to investigate. It is understood that those who plan the destruction of the bird reservation have already secured the cooperation of the state land board of Oregon. For that rea son Mr. Pearson regards the situation as Imminent and believes it will re quire quick and earnest appeals to the Secretary of the Interior from those who believe in the protection of wild turds to prevent the destruction of the colony. "There are about five million guns in the United States," said Mr. Pear son, "and the only way to preserve our migratory game birds is to have these sanctuaries, areas in which they can never be killed, under any.cir cumstances.
