NO FISHING FROM APRIL 15 TO JUNE 1 GAME AND FISH DEPARTMENT CALLS ATTENTION TO LAW ENACTED LAST YEAR COV ERING THIS QUESTION Atlanta, Ga. —Attention is called, by the State Department of Game and Fish, to the fact that any kind of fishing is prohibited by law be tween April 15th and June Ist. Dur ing that period it is a violation of law to either sell or buy fresh water fish. The Legislature concluded, after long consideration, that it is a wise conservation measure to protect fish in all fresh waters during the spawn ing season, hence the enactment of this regulation providing for a strict closed season from April 15th to June Ist. The State Department of Game and Fish has been confronted with the suggestion, however, that to keep hook and line fishermen away from the fresh waters during this short closed season would probably have a tendency to make better oppor tunity for dynamiters, seiners, net ters and other unlawful fishermen to pursue their unsportsmanlike and illegal practices. Commissioner Pet er S. Twitty admits this would be true if it were not for the rigid en forcement of other regulatory laws prohibiting those practices. To meet "possible conditions such as have been suggested, through illegal fish ing practices, the State Department is now completing its arrangements for pressing an enforcement cam paign against all illegal fishing > prac tices during the approaching closed season. To better accomplish the pur pose, and in aid to the ordinary state agencies, the Department is offer ing a cash reward of $25 to the per son who causes the arrest and con viction, or furnishes the evidence re sulting in conviction, of anyone who f shall use traps, baskets, seins, nets, oi who shall dynamite or poison any of the waters or streams in Georgia for the purpose of taking fish be tween April 15th and June 7st, 1932. Reports of violations should be made either to the nearest Game Warden, or to the State Department of Game and Fish. In the nineteen mountain counties, however, there is a special closed season. • FOURTH OF MISSISSIPPI LAND SOLD FOR TAXES IMMENSE AREA GOES ON BLOCK TO' SATISFY TAX CLAIMS. ONE FOURTH PRIVATE PROP ERTY IN STATE IS SOLD Jackson, Miss., April 4. —An esti mated 25 per cent of the Mississippi privately owned property .went on the auction block Monday for de linquent taxes. Sheriff’s hammers swung in prac tically every county and city as lands seized for non-payment of taxes were offered for sale. State Land Commissioner R. D. Moore made the estimate thate one-fourth of the state’s private property was involved. He based his figures on advertisements received from county and chancery clerks, who informed him that land advertised for sale this year exceeded any year in the history of the state. Reports of sheriffs of 74 of the 82 counties to Governor Conner dis closed that 39,699 farms went on the block Monday, or 16.2 per cent of the total agricultural acreage of the i tate. In addition, 12 per cent of city and town property was for feited for non-payment of 1931 taxes, according to reports. Commissioner Moore estimated the state already possessed from 15,- 000 to 40,000 acres of land in each county, taken over for delinquent taxes. Statistics ’’khows that one-fourth of the workers in the United States are engaged in occupations that were unheard of 30 years ago.

BROOKS WILL OF LATE FORSYTH CAPI TALIST IS TO BECOME BASIS OF LEGAL BATTLE ON PART OF CERTAIN HEIRS The will of the late Mr. R. p. Brooks is to be contested by a num ber of the heirs of the estate. About 3fT of the heirs have filed a petition in the Court of Ordinary asking that the Trust Compaijy of Georgia, as executor of the will of R. P. Brooks, be required to probate the will in solemn form. The hearing 0 ° on the probation of the will has been set for the first Monday in May. The heirs of Mr. Brooks are repre sented by some of the outstanding attorneys of Atlanta. The Forsyth legal talent associated with them in the case is the firm of Williams & Freeman. The fortune of Mr. Brooks was in vested in coupon bonds, the total of which has not been made public, but is estimated as being between $250,000 and $300,000. Several of the relatives of Mr. Brooks and sev eral c-f the family servants yvera remembered in his will. The residue o’ - the estate was bequeathed to the Gentlewoman Homo, an institution h tc. be organized and administered by a board of trustees. It is this provi sion in the will, ’which conveys the bulk of the estate, which will be at tacked by those seeking a change, in the distribution of the property.— Monroe Advertiser.
