386 Bird -Lore 



The bills to permit hunting in spring were defeated. A bill to prohibit the use 

 of the automatic shot-gun was defeated, although it attracted support from 

 a variety of sources. Some good may have been accomplished by the passage 

 of a bill which still further limits the hunter's daily bag. An attempt on the 

 part of the Audubon Society to establish a reserve by legislative enactment 

 met defeat in the Senate. The Society, through its representatives, took 

 part in all the hearings on the more important bills relating to birds, but just 

 what its single influence was is hard to determine. 



With this record back of it, the Society is looking forward to another year 

 of active endeavor in advancing the cause for which it stands. — Roland E. 

 Kremers, Secretary.
