Cry of the Wild Duck
Is Getting Fainter
There is much mystery and
a little magic in the arrival or
departure of far-flying waterfowl.
Wild ducks high overhead
in the darkness of night or in
the drifting mists of a foggy
morning, bring a tinge of ex
citement to the most staid
earthbound human.
From out of the misly dark
ness the flocks come hurtling
in, to land with skidding
splashes in the cold waters of
a pond or a salt marsh. Thou
sands of generations of ducks
have followed the same un
marked path through the sky,
over Ihe long established fly
ways.
The hunter's blood courses
faster in his veins at the pros
pect of duck hunting, for the
birds are wily game. But
many of these hunters are
content when the day is done
to return home emptyhanded;
they have enjoyed the sights
and sounds that arc always
present when the wildfowl
come hurtling through the
mists of early morning.
Serious Stage
Thinking hunters, too, real
ize that the time of duck hunt
ing has reached a serious stage

when something drastic must
be done to preserve the soort.
There are, of course, many
factors that control the sup
ply of wildfowl that will
wing- over the shooting
grounds next season.
Some of these factors are
uncontrollable. One seems to
to be the extensive and whole
sale drainage of the wet
places, ponds and swamos,
These depressions are being
tilled in at an alarming rate.
The wild duck must have
water, food and a degree of
shelter. When ponds and lakes
become scarce and far apart,
the ducks congregate on
available wet places in large
numbers.
Too heavy a concentration
fouls the water, especially in
shallow lakes, and disease
takes a heavy toll. Thousands
of birds die from water pol
lution. "Duck-disease" some
one called it, a direct result
of bacterial growth.
A continual drought In the
nesting areas can cut the duck
population in half; a factor, of
course, outside the power of
the conservationists to con
trol.

legislators
The chairman, State Rep.
George Layman (R-Newberg)
said the 17 member commis
sion will consider five policy
items for the new state con
stitution being drafted.
The commission will submit
the new, leaner constitution
to the 1963 legislature. If it
passes both houses by two
thirds majorities, the proposal
will be on the 1964 ballot.
Layman said this week's
meeting, plus another one
June 1-2, will probably end
predrafting policy decisions
of the commission. Then a
drafting subcommittee head
ed by Law Prof. Hans A.
Linde of the University of
Oregon will actually write the
document.
Among items recommended
by subcommittees and up for
final approval this week are
those that would;

on the basis of population but
letting the solons set the
number of seats in each house.
A key provision is that no
legislative district would have
more than twice the popula
tion of any other district.
sions of the legislature
Allow the governor to
reorganize his executive
branch by executive order,
with the legislature having to
veto his plan within a period
of time. This Is similar to a
federal law.
Put a 20 department limit
on the executive branch.
Have the constitution con
tinue to outlaw lotteries In
Oregon.
Let the governor appoint
judges. An appointed judge
would stand for election after
two years and if retained by
the voters, he would stay in
office, facing them thereafter
every six years. If a judge
were ousted at the polls, the
governor would name some
one else.
Create a slate commission
to advise the governor on his
judicial appointments. Such a
commission would also advise
the legislature on law revision
and the supreme court on
rule making.
The meetings start at 9:30

about the "People to People"

The lecturer's program was
