Rules for Enforcing Law to Protect Migratory Game" Birds

This much for
Now that the Weeks-McLean bill giving
federal protection to moratory birds,
which was characterixel on the floor of
the house as "the most radical legislation j
ever nronofed In this country," has bo-
come a law, the American Uame Pro
tective and Propagation association, which
engineered the passage of the measure,
Is being swamped with Iwiulries as to
how and when It will be put Into effect
In answer to these, the following state
Cnt has ixxtl been Issued:
An amendment to the Weeks-McLean
hill which was made lust before final
l-a.-age mskes mnhdatory tho adoption
by the Department of Agriculture of sult

having due regard for zones of tem
perature, breeding habits and times and
lines migratory flight. The bill pro
Udes that when these regulations ara
prepared they shall be mado public and
tliat a j.crlod of three months shall be
al owed before final adoption, In order ,
that they may be examined and con
tllcred and that public hearings may be
granted If this is deemed advisable.
At the present time It Is lmposlble to
any how much time will bo required to
draw up these rcgulotlons. The matter
will be entrusted to the biological survey,
which Is a bureau of the Department of
Agriculture, and while much of tho
requisite data have nlrcady been collected
in connection with tho survey's other ac
tivities, It will at lenat be necessary o
compile available Information or migra
tions and breeding habits in different sec
tions of tho country, and co-ordinate It
with the proposed regulations (n view. It
may be found advisable to make wore
exhaustive investigations of these prob
lems to supplement thoso which have
been carried out for other purposes. In
any case, It will bo impossible for the
new law to take effect In time to protect
the birds during thq breeding season
vhlch la at hand arid unless unfoneen
difficulties arlto it IU unquestionably
be In operation bofore the migrations of
"Tho regulations imposed will prohibit
absolutely the killing of those sqng and
insectivoroui birds whose value to agri
culture greatly outweighs their food
value. Notable members of this class are
robins, blackbirds and bobolinks, Jn a
general way it Is safo to say that migra
tory birds such as duoks, geese, swans
and shore birds, will bo protected from
the time they mate In tho spring until
their young are full grown. As these
birds mate earlier In some parts of the
United States than In others, hard and
fast rules governing open and closed
seasons cannot he mado for the whole
country, but stones will have to bo cre
ated and shooting seasons determined In
accordance with condition In eaoh zone
Additional protection In certain rones, or
for the whole country, wilt probably be
given to oome specie which ara now
threatened with extinction until they
have Increased beyond the danger point.
Likely candidates for this special con
sideration aro the woodcock, In many
localities, the woodduck, trumpeter swan,
whooping and sandhill cranes, and many
vnrletles of shore birds,
"An Important provision In the hill
which should not he lost sight of flays:
That nothing herein contained shall he
deemed to affect or Interfere with the
local laws of tho states and terrltorlts
for the protection of nonmlgrotory gano
or other birds resident" and breeding
within their borders, nor to prevent the
states and territories from enacting laws
and regulations to promote and render
efficient the regulations of the 'Depart
ment of Agriculture provided under this
statute.' Aa most states already have
laws which will fulfill the requirements
of the federal law, no new restrictions
will be placed on their cltUens unless In
the matter of better enforcement, and
as tho laws were made to bo enforced
there can be no logical objection to this.
In the fight to vecuro this legislation It
was plainly shown that the better senti
ment In those states which now allow
spring shooting, and the slaughter of song
birds. Is. decidedly against these practices,
and It was mnde evident that all rent
sportsmen and all thinking people will
welcome federal action to put a stop to
them where It has been 'Impossible to
ecur Mat notion. Besses gratifying
such people, the new mensurn will remedy
a great Injustice which Is at present suf
fered by sportsmen In states which, have
adequate game laws through the fact that
gunners In, neighboring; , state, have
greater opportunities to shoot and there
fore set mora than, their rightful sharo
of birds.
The details connected with the en
forcement of tho Weeks-McLean law aro
yet to bq perfected, but tho state authorl
ties will probably take tho most active
part In making It effective, aa In the
case of the Lucey act. The lutter Is a

clause In states where It Is unlawful to

ion Its adversaries maintained that a large
and expensive force would bo necessary
to make It effective, but experience has
proved that a very small appropriation
was needed, as the local wardens were
glad to enforce It. The same will be
true of the legislation Just passed. The
appropriation of 110,000 which It carried1
will prove sufficient for. immediate needs,
and considering the Importance qf the
law and the money It will so,vo the coun

"Besides tho one already mentioned, an.

Instead of the Department of Agricul
ture. In this connection It Is gratifying
to note that one of the most able law
yers In the country expressed thev opin
ion that the supreme court would sus
tain the Weeks-McLean law when he
heard the decision It has Just made In
favor of the constitutionality of the
white slave taw which was passed In
July, 1910.
"Now that the principle of federal pro
tection of migrants has been recognized,
It should logically be extended to Inter
national protection. Hcnator Root has
Introduced a resolution requesting the
president to propose to ' other North
American countries the negotiation of
treaties for the mutual protection of
migratory birds. Senators Weeks and
MaLean are in favor of this proposal and
will prove powerful allies In getting t
through. The national association has
already commenced to lay plans, with
every hope that the same protection will
bo given to our migrants when they are
beyond our bordors that we have just
accorded them while they are with us."
