FEDERAL “BRASS”: The “top
brass” of military reservations and
of other lands and waters owned
or controlled by the various ABC
XYZ bureaus and agencies of the
federal government—except those
areas administered by the Fish and
Wildlife Service—is being severe
ly criticised for its growing tend
ency to set aside and abrogate
state fish and game regulations,
and otherwise interfere with state
and local fish and game programs.
At the annual meeting of N. C.
Wildlife Federation in Asheville
this month the recent declaration
of the commanding officer at Fort
Bragg that the State’s fish and
game regulations are “inoperative”
on his post drew the fire and out
spoken censure of those present.
TARHEEL HUNTERS and fish
ermen. whose license fees for years
s have been spent towards building
up and protecting their fish and
game stock, were quite visibly
and audibly irked by reports of
the situation at Bragg. They un
animously adopted a resolution
protesting the commanding officer’s
policies and practices in this in
stance, and threatening to seek con
gressional aid that would insure
the authority of the State in fish
and game matters wherever within
its borders.
Just a few weeks earlier, the
members of the International Asso
ciation. of Game, Fish & Conserva
tion Commissioners, in conference
assembled at Rochester, N. Y., .
adopted a strongly worded resolu
tion “opposing extension of feder
al control over fish and game”,
and went on record to sponsor ap
propriate legislation in Congress
that would read essentially as fol
“'FHAT ALIi HUNTING on
lands owned or controlled by the
Federal Government and all fishing
in waters owned or controlled by
the Federal Government shall be in
accordance with the laws of the
State in which the area is locat
ed.”—Woods Rider
