T GILBERT PEARSON argues that although Congress banned feather imports, threats to bird protection persist. He cites a failed amendment to weaken the tariff, the vast feather trade, and years of Audubon Society efforts since 1886 to curb killing, with emphasis on egret plumes and the dangers faced by wardens guarding colonies.
