ALAEKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. SEATTLE REPRESENTATIVE — Alaska Newspapers, 1011 American Bank Bullding. KEEP 'EM I‘IY ., which is officially 7 a.m,, the shotguns are scheduled to boom on the flates along the Glacier Highway, and on hundreds of marshes and favorite duck hunting grounds around Tomorrow at sunris Juneau. A nice bunch of ducks are now feeding around this section, according to observers of the Alaska Game Commission and hunting should be good dur- ing the 60-day season, which extends through the 20th of November. About this time of year, oldtimers are often heard telling tall stories of the days when there was no restriction on the daily bag limit for the waterfowl. They gloat over the days when they used to bring gunnysacks full of game home from a half-day's hunting. But with more than a million duck hunters in the United States and Alaska, the largest army of gunners fielded annually by any country in the world, it is little surprise that federal and state game protection agencies have been forced to im- pose limits on the number of birds to be shot in a single day. To quote Dr. Ira Gabrielson, director of the Fish and Wildlife Service who was in Juneau re- cently to conduct fisheries hearings: “The good old days of unlimited killing are gone forever, as no land on earth can build up and main- tain a supply of birds that could stand an increas- ing annual drain by a constantly growing army of sportsmen.” . On the other hand, Dr. Gabrielson tells the shnatic on wildlife conservdtion, who would demand even greater shooting restrictions, that: “Ducks and geese are justifiably regarded as game birds that the American citizen has a right to use and enjoy provided the annual harvest does not exceed the seasonal crop.” And it is to keep this harvest by hunters from exceeding the birth rate of the birds that during the past score of years the | rigid restrictions on hunting. | Slowly at first and then rapidly in the late twenties | government has put and early thirties, the population of waterfowl was on the decline.

Flights. of the birds which normally migrated south through the mid- western states and other sections which had be- come highly agriculturalized were finding it in- creasingly difficult to locate feeding grounds as lakes and ponds were drained to reclaim land. It was due to these discoveries, resulting from scientific studies of the ‘flights of the waterfowl, that federal wildlife refuges were established along routes followed by the migrating birds. There the birds may find feed, a place to breed and hatch out their ducklings and complete security from the guns of hunters Well, all these regulations and federal provxslons take care of the migratory fowl are seemingly paying good dividends. Official waterfowl observers report that the duck and goose population of North America has been on the increase over the past five or six years. Nice as it might be to shoot ducks with no bag limit restriction, it is a lot nicer to know that there | will be ducks left to shoot next year and the fol- | lowing year and a number of years from now, when /the second and third generations of current hunt- ing families go out with their shotguns and to | AMERICAN WARFARE | Tomorrow the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New} York Yanks will clash in the first game of what | promises to be the hardest fought World Series in the history of the national game.
