Study § State Status , The question of artificial propa-

for Hoosier conservationists in recent weeks, due to a drive for addi-

tional revenue for the division of fish and game which operates fish hatcheries and game farms.

of receipts from the sale of licenses for fishing, hunting, trapping, handling furs, etc. In other words, the activities of the division are fi|nanced only by the hunters, fishermen, trappers and others connected with these activities. 7 o » ”

Seek Fund Increase Faced by increasing costs and demands for additional services, the Division of Fish and Game, with the approval of the conservation

club, several years ago _proposed to the general assembly that it be refmbursed for the free huiiting, fishing . and . trapping permits being issued to war veterans as a gift from the state of Indiana. No grant was made by the legislature but it did provide that the permits ‘be issued on an annual instead of a lifetime basis, as a step in determining how many permits were in effect. This law was later repealed and the permits are again issued on a lifetime basis. With approximately 300,000- such permits in force, this means at current license fees, the loss of nearly a half-million dollars annually to the division. The request for recognition of the state's refunding of this amount to the division is expected to be renewed during the present session. Also proposed the doubling of the present $1.50 license fee to $3 and the increasing of fees charged | for other licenses issued by the division. ” ” FJ

See Move as. Timely

Conservationists who have argued against continuance of the present extensive artificial propagation activities are arguing that a cutdown in these activities might help solve the financial difficulties. They also argue that a: greater return in better fishing and hunting could be realized by increasing the funds devoted to the improvement of natural conditions for fish and wildlife. They point to the better hunting

vicinity of the Pittman-Roberson wildlife restoration areas to strengthen their argument. » ” »

No State Bounties

Payment of bounties for the killing of predatory animals such as coyotes, must be puthorized by the board of county commissioners before nimrods can collect any rewird for killing such animals. Noi bounty is paid by the state or the department of conservation. Sportsmen - interested in such bounties should discuss establishment of a bounty with their local county commissioners.

More than 700 - arrests, an increases of over 100 per cent, have been reported for violations of state fish and game laws by conservation officers who are continuing their vigilance despite the fact the hunting season is closed and there is little fishing being done. » Failure to have a license was the major violation with illegal fishing by possession and use of spears, nets, gigs and traps running second.

Await Building Word

Conservation leaders meeting here a few days ago to discuss their legislative program, expressed the hope that administration leaders would not forget plans discussed during the 1946 state fair for a new conservation exhibit building at the state fairgrounds. Observing the throngs crowding their way into the building during the last fair, Gov. Gates and other leaders approved the idea of a new building where Indiana's conservation program and natural resources could be adequately displayed. Some mention was made at that time of locating the new Building in the at the fairgrounds and the possibility of establishing it as a year around exhibit. Members of the state fair board were also listed as favoring the improvement,
