MORE CONSERVATION CLUBS TO OPERATE BROODERS IN 1942 Seven hundred and fifteen Indiana conservation clubs will operate 930 electric brooders for the rearing of quail and pheasants this year it was reported today by Hugh A. Barnhart, director of the Department of Conservation. This is an increase in both the number of clubs and the number of club-operated brooders. To each of these cooperating clubs the Division of Fish and Game will furnish 180 quail or pheasant _ chicks per brooder, recompensing the club for each bird which is reared and liberated. This plan of cooperative game bird propagation was inaugurated in 1937 and has been most successful as a contribution of the clubs to the program of better hunting in Indiana by increasing the number of quail and pheasants liberated. Development of this brooder program has meant a shifting of activities at the two state game farms from the production of adult birds to the furnishing of quail and pheasant chicks to the clubs for their brooders. In 1940 the Jasper-Pulasjki and Wells Cos. game fhrms handled 430,000 quail* and pheasant eggs, most of which were incubated in the battery of. electric incubators and hatchers required for this record production. Indiana is the only state where game bird propagation is carried on as extensively or where such a program has as widespread support among conservationists. MONOXIDE GAS FROM MOTOR CAUSES TWO MEN TRIP TO HOSPITAL Loyal Hartman, Wakarusa and Leonard, Frederick of Foraker were taken to Elkhart to the hospital by a Wakarusa doctor after he had administered first aid for monoxide gas. The two men were riding in the cab of a highway truck operated by Harold Rohrer, of Wakarusa. Rohrer stopped at his home for a few miputes, letting the motor idle while in the house andt when he returned to his truck ttie two men had been overcome by gas which was being carried into the cab. He called a doctor who gave first aid, though the two men were revived when fresh air was admitted to them with the opening of the cab door. Taken to Elkhart oxygen was administered and the men were soon able to return to their homes.

Central Information Service President Roosevelt directed the United States Information Service to expand its facilities “so that visitors shall have one central place to which they can go for direction and information.” The President said because many businessmen and other citizens “are coming to Washington in increasing numbers seeking information and the assistance of their Government ... it has become more and more difficult for those coming ... on specific business to locate the Government official who can give authoritative answers to their questions . . .-It is now necessary that there be an integration of the various offices having direct contact with the public, and that their activities be coordinated under the direction of a Central office.” Civilian Defense The Senate passed and sent to the House a bill to create a sl,000,000,000 fund to compensate American property owners for war damages.
