Palton, Executive Director of the Commission. The Commission favors increas ing the duck stamp fee to $2 0(1 and earmarking $1.00 of that amount for the enforcement of federal migratory waterfowl regu lations. The Commission also favors the abolition of the present law which prohibits public shoot ing on any part of waterfowl refuges which have been or will be in the future purchased with funds derived from the sale of duck stamps. At a meeting in Haleigh recently, the North Carolina Wildlife He sources Commission went on rec ord as favoring legislation spon sored by the Society for Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals which would make it unlawful to exhibit captive wild birds and animals near commercial business estab lishments. The S.P.C.A frowns on the prac- j lice of displaying wild birds and j animals for advertising purposes in the belief that such wild species are often not well cared for. Executive Director Clyde P.
