GAME LAWS IN MANY STATES BEING REVISED Cenflicting Provisions Are Being Elim- inated and the Wording Made Sim- pler. ! By PETER P. CARNEY. Editor National Sports Syndicate An impo t matter in these days of complicated game legislation, when laws are amended at nearly every legislative session and scattered tes. is to simplify them as far as pos- to bring them together, eliminate con- flicting provisions and simplify the wording. Important progress in this direction has been made in at least six States: ‘have codified their entire game laws; New Hampshire and Utah have revis- ed their statutes, and Minnesota has codiiication of the game laws. | Of several radical changes made in ! aéministration of the laws, probably y the most important is the establish- ment of a department of game and ifish in Nevada. In Illinois the, Game | and Fish Commission was abolished {and the work placed under the Depart- : ment of Agriculture, with a chief game !and fish warden in direct charge. { In Maine a single commissioner of inland fisheries and game has been i subsiituted for the commission of three } members which has been in charge of In Mississippi ! the law enacted in 1916 creating the Depariment of Game and Fish and ; piacing the work in tharge of a com- | miasioner was submitted to the voters i under a referendum petition and re- jected at the general election, thus | lsaving the State without any general { officer in charge of game matters. ! In New Jersey the Board of Fish and Game Commissioners has been in- creasedfrem four to seven members. i In Pennsylvania the provisien requir- |ing game protectors to enforce the fish and forestry laws, as well as the game laws, was strengthened and made more explicit. | The salary of the Commissioner of {Inland Fisheries and Game in Maine | was increased to $2500;. that of the i State warden of South Dakota to {$2400, and that of the chief protector of New York to $5000 per annum. Tn Florida the county warden sys- ! tem was re-established, in conformity with the decision declaring the law of 1915 unconstitutional. Pirates Advance Guard Arrives Jacksonville, Fla.
