FolloAving the practice of the Bureau of Biological vSurvey, the

 tection. It is designed to meet the needs of officials charged with 

 the administration and enforcement of fish and game laws, and is 

 also for the convenient use of persons desiring to communicate with 

 officials and organizations concerning wildlife conditions in the several 

 States and Territories, the Canadian Provinces and Territories, 

 Newfoundland, Mexico, the West Indies, Central America, and 

 South America. Including chiefly the organizations that are national 

 or State-wide in character, the directory follows the general form of 

 previous editions.^ 



Details regarding the seasons for migratory game bird hunting and 

 restrictions thereon may be obtained from the Fish and Wildlife 

 Service, Chicago, Illinois.
