To the Honorable J. Hugo Aronson 

 Governor of Montana 



Dear Governor Aronson: 



In accordance with Montana law, we herewith submit the 

 Biennial Report of the Montana Fish and Game Commission for the 

 period May 1, 1952 through April 30, 1954. 



Expansion of the Fish and Game Commission activities has been 

 necessitated by the corresponding increase in public demands for 

 outdoor recreation and activities associated with the sports of hunting 

 and fishing. 



It is the purpose of this report to review the Commission's 

 finances over the past two years, the activities and progress that 

 have been completed during this period as well as the reasons for the 

 program and policies undertaken by the Commission. 



Respectfully submitted, 



MONTANA STATE FISH AND GAME COMMISSION 



WALTER BANKA, Chairman 

 WILLIAM T. SWEET, Member 

 MANSON H. BAILEY, JR., Member
