Rabbit Stocking Is Announced ;|
Asking More Trout for
Laurel Run, Dysart
Cambria County Sportsmen are
nic held by the association, It was
decided at a recent meeting in the
Ebensburg courthouse that the
1946 picnic will be held next fall at |
| the Ebensburg Fairgrounds. Pres-
ident Charles Allen was authorized
to appoint a committee of nine to
complete arrangements.
Purchasing and stocking of 1,200
rabbits by various sportsmen’s as-
sociations in the county were an- |
nounced also at the meeting. Game
Protectors N. M. Ruha, Ebens-
burg, and Lolis Mostollgr, Johns-
| town, also disclosed that a total of
| 800 cottontails were trapped in the
towns and boroughs of the county
during the winter and were liber-
ated in areas where hunting is per-
mitted.
The county association also ap-
pealed to, State Fish Commissioner
French to provide additional legal-
sized trout in Laurel Run, a north
county stream near Dysart. The
membership pointed out that the
stream is one of the finest moun-
tain runs in the county and that
trout would thrive in its waters.
Fish Warden Carl Wentz of Eb-
ensburg said that shipments of fish
are being Teceived almost daily
| and asked sportsmen to volunteer
to assist in stocking them in the
various state and county-approved
streams.
The Barnesboro Sportsmen’s As-
sociation has contributed $100 and
the Hastings Sportsmen's Associa-
tion has donated $50 to the fund
for the establishment of a fish
propagatiing area in this district,
it was reported.
State Game Commissioners also
were asked to furnish food for the
one-day-old ringneck chick’s when
they are sent to the sportsmen’s
groups for raising. They declared
that food for the chicks was very
expensive and often is almost im-
possible to get the right type, so
that many chicks die.

CONGRESS MAY SET
‘DURATION’ ANY DAY
The best guess on when Con-
gress will set the day for the end
of the ‘duration” is any day in
1946. The date hasn't been set yet
because of so many wartime laws
and regulations that expire when-
ever it arrives.
President Truman has requested
Congress to go slow in fixing the
legal date because he says he needs
many wartime powers to help to
taper things off to a peacetime
basis.
A House judiciary subcommittee
is at present busy trying to work
out a solution, and has traced 488
separate laws and directives de-
pending for continuance on the
“duration date.” The committee is
analyzing each one to find out if
we can get along without them.
Spokesmen say they are two-
thirds of the way through these
laws, and that soon they hope to
write a bill to abolish all of them,
with some few exceptions.
Committee Chairman Hobbs tells
reporters that he can’t tell what
date will be finally selected but it
“very likely will be the day the
bill the subcommittee is working
on actually is signed by the Presi-
d ”
