are raised under at least semi-domestic conditions, it seems that hunting 
them would be about as exciting sport as shooting steers in a pasture. 
In recent years the Federal Government has gotten into the act. 
Through its Foreign Game Program, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service 
pays three-fourths of the cost of importations by states. At present its 
activities are limited to introducing game birds and fish.

EDITOR'S NOTE: As reviewed above, "The Alien Animals” is one 
of a set of four paperbacks which can be ordered for $4.50 per set 
from National Audubon Society, 1130 Fifth Ave., New York 10028. 
The other three in the set are “Life and Death of a Salt Marsh,” by 
John and Mildred Teal, (reviewed in the March 1971 issue of the 
BULLETIN); “Killer Smog,” by William Wise, and “The Diligent 
Destroyers,” by George Laycock. The latter two will be reviewed 
here in the September and December issues. 
THE CASE FOR A SANCTUARY-HOME 
In all the surveys of the Long Range Planning Committee of 
the IAS, and in Board discussions and by common expression 
of leading members, the generalization has crystalized: 
Second to that of securing an Executive Director, the 
Society’s greatest demand is for a ‘‘sanctuary-home.” 
Such a sanctuary would demonstrate how the IAS would 
enjoy, explore, develop, protect, and preserve a scenic wil- 
derness area, both in terms of current desperate needs and for 
posterity. 
The Society requires a real home—a headquarters base, 
and a single address instead of the current three. Such a base 
ought to be located in the northern part of the state where 
a majority of members reside. It should be a natural area in 
a secluded spot, but reasonably accessible to major highways, 
airports, and other transportation. 
It should aim for a central office where a director and 
staff might live and work. Adjacent to, and part of it, should 
encompass a nature center, a living museum, and nature 
trails. It should be a center for board meetings, training of 
members, and of prospective young leaders, and a center for 
comprehensive interpretive programs for out-of-state visitors, 
naturalists, and ecologists. 
It now has become imperative that IAS leaders and 
members activate themselves to find, and to acquire by pur- 
chase or lease, a desirable sanctuary-home. 
If you know of any parcel that may meet all these needs, 
you may render a valuable service to IAS by notifying us.
