NATION S CAPITOL
(By W. A S )
A bill that had the endorsement
of many members of Congress from
the States of New York and Penn
sylvania particularly, was intro
duced in the last Congress but
failed of consideration. It author
ized the Secretary of the Treasury
to erect a monument and historical
museum at Seward as a memorial
to William H. Seward, for his dis
tinguished service in acquiring the
Territory of Alaska from Russia.
On the assurance of considerable
I support Delegate Wickersham has
again introduced the bill.

The suggestion has come from
'Ketchikan that if there is to be a
restriction next year in the time
for shooting migratory birds that
the northern half of Southeastern
Alaska should have the month of
October in which to do their shoot
ing and the other one-half the
month of November. The question
of altered seasons had previously
been taken up with Paul G. Red
ington, Chief of the Bureau of Bio
logical Survey, and he assured Dele
gate Wickersham that before an
other Executive order was issued
on the subject the desires of the
sportsmen of Alaska would be con
sidered. At a meeting of the Am
erican Game Association held in
New York a week ago and attended
by 400 officials of various game
organizations, it was urged that
there be a one-year closed season
on duck shooting, as a means of
conserving the wild fowl. This
meeting was attended by C. A. Hay
den, president of the Canadian Fish
and Game Protective Association,
who stated that while Canada
breeds most of the continent’s wa
ter fowl more than 75 per cent of
the birds killed are shot in the
United States. He urged a con
servation program in which both
countries should share equally, and
Mr. Redington, who was present,
agreed with him.
