LITTLE ROCK, Ark., November 28.— As just another duck hunter, tramping through the marshes of the White River bettoms of Artansas and mingling with other nimrods '0 days, Dr. T. Gil- bert Pearson, pre.ident of the National Association of Audubon Societies, has come to the conclusion hunters are kill- ing their own sport. Dr. Pearson came here last night after making a survey of conditions in a sec- tion which each year attracts hunters from many parts of the Nation. _“If they continue to slaughter the birds for the remainder of the season as they have thus far, there probably will be no duck hunting next year,” he said. “In dozens of places in the breeding country, I visited lakes, ponds and sloughs where several years ago thou- sands of ducks spent Summer months, he added. “Today, these former water- ing places are dry sand. There have been three terrible breeding seasons for ducks, and if this year's supply is not preserved for breeding purposes next ear, I do not believe there can be any hunting next year.” DISMISSAL GRANTED IN RUM BRIBE CASE TU. §.

Thirteen of the indicted inspectors ‘were sent to jail for terms ranging from six months to Lwo years. One still awaits trial.
