Superior Judge ' t a n I o y Mat ray of Madera County telU why ho la opposed to aaanaftnc CaHfomla'a dear herd by allowlnr kuuar of either sex, aa proposed by Madera County Superior Judge, MADERA (UP) The Depart ment of Fish and Game, in adopt ing the Idea of managing and con trolling the deer population by licensing certain numbers of bunt- era each year to shJot down the . defenseless doe, is ill advised, and this can well portend the end of wildlife in California. - Nature, from time immemorial, has had1 a way of controlling the reproduction of the species. As tar as the deer ' family is concerned, the coyote, wolf, mountain lion and other wild animals, as well as dls- , eases,, have served to control too much of an increase. 5 There is no evidence that the ; predatory animals have failed in their job. it the absence oi assist f ance. from - the ' Fish , and Game : Commission, to such an extent as to give the commission a right to license hunters to promiscuously kill ontlerless deer. The commission and its experts could far better be occupied in working out ways -ind means to preserve the deer population, ra ther than to cooperaie in- deple ting It. - ' There is a tremendous increase of people who want to hunt during the hunting season. The citizens oi California . have a right to the preservation ot the female deer so enough bucks can be born that a hunter mav have a -chance, once in a while, to kill one. I believe it is not an overpopula tion of anterless deer that is at the bottom of this inexcusable slaugh ter of the mother deer. It is the (act that it is harder, because of the Increase id the number of hunters to kill a buck. There are so many does that too much pres sure is brought to bear for an opportunity to kill a doe occasion ally. The overpopulation is used as an excuse to license hunters to kill the does especially those wh have not been abla to kill a buck. I am unable to forgive the au thorities who feel that the way to control our wildlife, and particu larly Ine deer of the toaests, is to allow a buckles hunter to shoot down the delenseless do. When the cruel and relentless hunter alms his deadly rifle and fires the shot that destroys her life, he also destroys the life of uncounted four-point bucks that would bless future generations of hunters. . . If it Is necessary to license hunters to kill female deer to de plete the population, why is It that the deer population did not over run the mountains ot California in ' " ORDER LIFTED MANILA-, lP Defense Secretary ; Sotero Cabahug has lifted an order i which had grounded Philippine air , force P51 - Mustang fighter planes I for the past t iek.

Yet, whtn the steer was worth only what its hide would bring and only the Digger Indian hunted the buck or the doe. if you please it was no: necessary to go out and kill a lot of does to keep nature In balance I was raised in the Sierra Neva da and, frcm first hand informa tion, am able to testify that, in the areas where the deer browse and leed. nuture is still at'le to keep things in balance, without the aid of an army of hunters killing does and leaving little fans to starve. Wildlife in California Is fast dis appearing and those agencies ere ited at the expense oi the people for Its protection should be vigilant) at all times in this regard. Such agencies should pay serious con sideration to information furnished by those on the local scene who, from their many years of experi ence, can speak with authority. They should eliminate any guess work or politics from the formula tion of long range policies, or the pressure of "would-be sportsmen' GIVE MOM A TREAT - BY ENJOYING Thanksgiving Dinner ' SERVED DELICIOUSLY AT.
