MENACING THE GAME SIP
I’LY <U\ INTERIOR ALASKA
in greatly Th--.W'Vpy.-CV m
in" steadil vine reusing numbers along
f Ik? Upper reaches of the Tanana
river and in various other sections of
Interior Alaska constitutes a positive
menace to Alaska’s game and fur
supply, according, to G. T.. Gardner,
president .of the Alaska Game Coir,
mission,
The menace of these predatory ani
mals' is greater than most Alaskans
-ealifcn, Mr. Gardner says. The coy
otes'have appeared ailing the upper
Tanana in greatest numbers and
•spread all over the interior, killing
vouitg caribou and niooSe and driving
he Tur-bcaring animals from their
usual haunts. The situation has
-cached a critical stage, and it is esti
mated that it will require millions of
lollars and years of determined ecort
*o rid the country of these enemies
>f Alaska game.
Mr. Gardner attributes the rapid
increase i n‘ the number of predatory
anintals in Alaska to the war which
has ’been launched against them in
the States and in ‘'aiTadt snd to, the
ravages of forest<fires-throughout the
courftrj"! Theism tires have left burnt
>ver) avenues h adihg . direct. to the
Territory,.and rt is-along these invit
ing routes of Gavel that the coyotes
and'wolves are making-their, way to
Alaska; Tne-green rimber and under
mu sh formerly served as a barrier,
it Being, the nature of predatory ani
mals to avoid shell places.
An effort is being made at the
present time, Mr. Gardner says, to
enliit the co-operation off trappers
and prospectors in ridding the-coun
try (Vff coyote* wil Wolves. Mr. Gard
ner is an oldf infer of Alaska, and pro
tection of gwine’-aiid fuT-bearing ani
mals has always-been a hobby with
him.i

THE BUCK PLAN FOR PRO
HIBITION ENFORCEMENT
WASHINGTON .^THa Buck plan
for prohibition onforceinent is a pro
posed amendment to the. 18th amend
ment of the Constitution. It was
drawn up by Dr F. VV. Buck and ir.
troduced in the House of Representa
tives by Congressman Adolph Sabath
of Illinois. The proposed amendment
reads sis follows:
“After the ratification of this ar
ticle the manufacture,, sale, or trans
portation of intoxicating liquors
within, the importation thereof into.,
the exportation thereof from, the
United States and all territory sub
ject to the jurisdiction thereof for
beverage purposes is hereby prohib -
ited, except as provided in Section 2
of this article.”
Section 2 reads: “Congress shall.'
provide by appropriate legislation for'
the manufacture and-transportationj
of intoxicating liquor rrrfwy- fwy- yv
of intoxicating beverages' and for tin
sale thereof in packages under a sys
tem of government permits and re
sfrictivns.v and ‘ provide penalties for
the violation of such - lews, permits,
and regulations: Provided,, however
That no such permits shall be-issued
therefor -in any .Stale or Territory
whose laws prohibit the manufacture,
; transportation, or sale of intoxicat- p
; ing beverages; nor ;in any political
! subdivision of the United States of
; America (outside the -District of C(t
lumbia), until requested by an a fit V£.
| the legislature or referendum vote of
I such- political subdivision.” ■
! The Buck plan, in addition to the
amendment, proposes a uniform dis
penseary law whereby the legislature'
of each State, or a referendum vote,'
j may change the State prohibition law
| to the Federal dispensary plan, and *
permit the establishment of dispen-|
saries where persons of voting age \
may secure for home use not to ex 1
ceed two quarts of spirituous liquor.!
15 of wine and 80 of beer a month,;
at iuO per cent above cost, with the j
revenue divided eiually between the j
State and the Federal governments. ;
