Regard Order
With Caution
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 (AP) Hunters toon will be able
to purchase ammunition again.
The war production board disclosed today that it plant
to remove temporarily its ban on tales because animalt and
birds are causing widespread crop and livestock losses in
many parts of the country.
The ban originally was imposed in May, 1943, relaxed
for the 1943 fall hunting season and restored last January 1.
WPB told its ammunition industry advisory committee
that an order would be issued later this week permitting tales
. for hunting purposes. Approxi-
I matcly 3,000,000 pounds of
brass is available lor ammuni
tion production during the
fourth quarter of this year.
The advisory committee sug
gested the brass be used to pro
duce 130,000,000 shotgun shells,
240,000,000 rim fire cartridges
and 8,000,000 center-fire cartridges.

THE SANDSTORM LEAGUE
Here's how they play GI base
ball in the middle east, as related
by Larry Leonard: "Our baseball
team was engaging a quarter
master unit when all of a sudden
the QM boys voiced protest
against the umpiring. Finally
they tossed out the umpire. They
put in another umpire (teil Du
rocher to try it some time) and
this new ump was one of our
other players, who had just come
out of the hospital. Well, our
team, realizing the hitting ability
of the kid we had umpiring,
tried to take him out as ump
and use him as a pinch-hitter . . .
The other team protested so
strongly they finally walked off
the field and the game has to
be played over.

Klamath basin hunters, agri
culturists, and other interested
people at first expressed joy up
on hearing the above news re
lease, but then they began to
wonder if there would actually
be much increase in the camber
of shells available.
County Agent C. A. ' Hender
son noted that the 130.000,000
shotgun shells that would be
made from the brass that is be
ing released would supply the
nation's estimated five or six
million hunters with about a box
apiece, hardly enough to last
through one huntingrtrip, to say
nothing of the whole season.
It was suggested that many
shells have been stored up by the
wholesale sporting goods dealers
throughout the country but local
merchants seemed skeptical of
the idea. They pointed out that,
not enough ammunition has
been manufactured for other
than military consumption for
wholesalers to build up a stock.
One point that all Klamath
men agreed on was that much
more ammunition was going to
have to be released than last
year if crop damage was to be
prevented. Not enough was re
leased in 1943 to prevent dam
age and at that time many peo
ple naa extensive siocks ot shells
saved from the year before. This
year very few private shells are
left from the last season's shoot
ing.
P. S. Puckett of the Gun Store
stated that if the order came
from Washington in the form of
a complete lifting of the ban
with no priorities required, he
Believed that it would result in
"a heck of a mess," with many
people getting shells and never
using them. He recommended a
system of rationing whereby
people who really needed am
munition and could use it would
get it.
The interested Klamath men
had decided by Tuesday after
noon that they would "keep
their fingers crossed" and wait
for further developments and do
a little private investigating ol
their own before they leaped to
conclusions.
Nice Going, Fellow!
