The news will surprise strong and healthy producers who . thought they were turning in a pretty fair performance up to. now, but some reasons for the differential seern evident. The: handicapped person usually takes his job more seriously, just as he takes life with less frivolity, than his uhysically fit neigh. bor. If he acquired his disability in battle, he sees the compel-. ling need of his war work far more clearly than many around him. ! A crippled person engaged in sires he is trained for, perhaps obeys the safety regulations even better than the man who never suffered an injury. He is apt to be pretty dependable, steady on the job and probably less subject to absenteeism in baseball season. His disabilities impose’ limitations upon him. but according to the Army-Navy survey he generally does so well with the abilities he has left that he far outstrips his normal fellow employes. The splendid record handicapped war workers now will serve as an inspiration, guidance and new hope to many more thousands of disabled veterans who will be heading home from overseas in the months to come.—Contributed.

In an explanation of this proposed . plan, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife} Service specicifally state# that. the management of public shooting on . ° federal lands will be turned over io. the State Division of Fish and Game. If the: federal appropriation is not, approved by congress it will be necessary for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to use. funds derived from the sale of duck stamps for the waterfowl management in this state. This will mean, of course, that none of the lands acquired can be opened to public shooting since all lands purchased with duck stamp money must remain inviolate. The Fish and Game Commission feels that the lands whieh are to be devoted ‘to waterfowl management should be subject. to a flexible type of management which will allow them to be ‘opened to public shooting under state administration whenever conditions warrant it.
