Duck Plan

A $25,000,000 plan to furnish migratory birds feeding grounds and sanctuaries received approval "in principle" from the International Association of Fish, Game & Conservation Commissioners meeting at Hot Springs, Ark. last week. President Seth Gordon of the American Game Association suggested that the U. S. sell special $5,000,000 bond issues during each of five successive years. The U. S. would reimburse itself by selling through postoffices $1 Federal licenses to hunt ducks and other migratory birds. Annual Government income, Mr. Gordon figures, would be from $2,500,000 to $3,000,000. President Thomas Gilbert Pearson of the National Association of Audubon Societies reported after extensive study that Army posts would make fine game sanctuaries.
