Where such conditions are found,
the liaison officer will report to
Secretary Ickes who will take up
the matter with the agency con-
cerned.
If the sportsmen, landowners,
Boy Scouts, 4-H Clubs, bird clubs
and other organizations interested
in the conservation of our natural
resources continue cooperating with
the various conservation depart-
ments of our own State government
in the future as well as they have in
the past, there'll be no likelihood of
a blackout for wildlife conservation
in Pennsylvania either.
Now more than ever before must
taere be solidarity and unity of
purpose. In times of peace there
are no disturbing elements of de-
structive forces tnat threaten the
security of our natural resources--
at least not in the proportion or
sense that such forces exert them-
selves at a time when conditions
are unsettled, and when every en-
orgy is being expanded in the in-
terest of national defense. It's the
duty, therefore, of every sportsman
and sportswoman, every farmer,
every youth,—for that matter every
citizen—whether he hunts, fishes,
or not—to be on guard against any
q element which might have for its
purpose the ultimate destruction of
our forests, our soil, our fish, or
our wildlife. Whether we realize it
or not these resources are the basis
of all living and if we permit them
unwisely, if we sacrifice them on the
altar of commercialism, we shall be
sawing off “the limb on which we
are sitting.
All of our resources can be re-
garded as powerful reservoirs in
times of stress, if they are properly
managed and properly exploited.
Otherwise they would contribute
less than nothing in a national em-
ergency. "
In a recent announcement Dr. Ira
N. Gabrielson, Chief of the U. S
Fish and Wild life Service, said that
“control of harmful and destructive
birds and mammals is also essential
in the efficient production of sup-
plies for war purposes, and that
losses to stored grains, foodstuffs.
and cloth fabrics credited to rodents
and mice in the United States dur-
ing World War No. 1 amounted to
many millions of dollars.
“It is fitting that wildlife be sub-
ordinated to the defense needs of
the Nation, but if our biologists can
recommend courses of action in the
use of areas on which fish anc

from 2 to four fishermen in each.

hired out, and many of those fisher-
men who decided to go fishing at
the last minute were disappointed.
Some of the old Rivermen claim
that there were more bass and Sal-
mon caught this year on the open-
ing day than there were for the
past several year. Quite a few fish-
erman caught the limit.
The second day of the season was
hot, so hot that practically no fish-
erman were to be seen on the river
and those that tried their luck were
unsueces:ful.
The third day of the season the
rainy spell started which caused the
river to be muddy the whole way
across to the Wrightsville cide. But
notwithstanding the muddy condi-
tion of the river there have been
some very fair catches reported.
