Migratory Bird Law Not Invalid, Says Federal Chief
In Phoenix on January 24 a Washington report on the Shawver case misread the opinion. Edward W. Noitosef of the Biological Survey clarifies that the Supreme Court did not invalidate the migratory bird law. The court’s ruling concerned the treaty act replacing prior law, and the validity of past laws remains academic. The migratory bird treaty act should be strictly enforced. Arizona sportsmen note the open season for migratory birds aligns with state laws ending February 1. Wild ducks are arriving earlier, and protected watering places must be posted for opening days.
