In Campaigns For Election

Russia Astir l] l I I

MOSCOW, Nov.26 -(OP)- Three weeks after a. million people ga- thered in Red Square to salute the 20th anniversary of the Bol- shevlst revolution, the Soviet Union W83 preparing today to go to the polls under more democratic con- dition: than ever before in its history.

0n Dec. 12 about 100,000,000 voters are expected to cast ballots in the first direct, tmiversal and. secret voting ever staged in the Soviet. Everyone 18 years or over will be eligible. except the in- sane and err-convicts. Women will vote equally with men.

The election, called under the new constitution ratified last Dc- cember. rings uv the curtain on wide political reforms. It will see the new supreme legislative body, to be known as the Supreme So- viet, elected by the ozdlnary ci- tizen for the first time.

‘The present leglslativebcdy is called the Central Executive Com- mittee. It is sheen by a show of hands by delegates to the congrem of Soviets and the man in the street has no say in it other than by helping to elect hls deputy to t the local Soviet.

Another innovation will be the two houses forming the Supreme Soviet. The Soviet of Union, to be elected on a population basis with one deputy to every 300.000 people, will corrmpond to the United States House of Rleprwentatives. The Soviet of Nationalities will be on a. regional basis. Both will have equal powers.

Foreign drservers believe, how- ever. the new democracy is more apparent than real. Joseph Stalin, genemlsecretary of the Communht Party and head of the all power- ful Polltbureau. inner council of the party, intends still to dominate the political life of the nation, in- eluding the elections, they say.

with no conflict on party lines, observers ‘prodfic t the changes chiefly will effect local quwtions and personalities and the composi- tion cf the provincial and local soviet-s to be elected at the same time.

- All urged to vole

In past weeks the government has bent. every effort to school voters in their duties. The election lnw, implemrmttimg lithe changes, he". been printed in every Russian languagealnd circulated throughout the country. Study groups, compos- ed of workers, peasants, soldiers and housewives, have pored over the regulations. Vivid posters in cities urge all to vote. .

Polling booths will be open from 8 a.m. till midnight on Dec. 12. a spectalholiday. A voter will identify himself by passport or u n l o n card and his name will be checked off against an official llst of quali- fied voters. lIe will be given a bal- lot paper and envelope and, in a curtalned booth he will cross off the names of all candidates that "do not please him," as the regula- tions put it, and drop his vote into a ballot box. In some cities voting machines will be used.

An absolute majority of more than 50 per cent of the total votes for election. Prison terms have been laid down for those who attempt bribery or violence and for official: who forge documents or miscount votes.

It is true that the golden eagle ls sometimes destructive to man's interests; true that the goshawk is the archpredator —a winged bullet of sudden death to the hapless creature that crosses the bird's pathway. "Feathered , outlaws" is the brief, sarcastic verdict of those who seek with gun that which the raptores seek with taion. We pride ourselves on being a fair and bounteous people. Still, there are many among us who would rather sec the ruptures wiped from the earth than allow the birds to enjoy their small portion of ft. On the other hand there are in our midst many people who cherlsh,~who are elevated by the sight of those broad wings, which epitomize free- dom, and the wilderness, and ethereal grandeur. And alas for the fiery spirit of the goshawk that few sensate men are able to ap- preciate and tolerate the bird. To the man with a. gun the goshswk is anathema; to the blciogist the bird has significance —a. place in Nature. To the bird lover the goa- hawk represents unspeakable strength and action. an exhibition of grace and beauty the sight of which he will journey many" miles to see-

visitors ls not without significance. Too long have the hunters taken unto themselves the role of arbi- ters of our wildlife. decxeeing what shall live and what shall not live. But this can no longer be tolerated. if the lesson of Hawk Mountain Sanctuary means anything.

The experiment in hawlm-con- servaticn carried on at Drehers- vilfe is unique. What effect has

this experiment had no the peo--'

ple of the surrounding country- side; on the people of the region as a whole? Hawk-shoots still take p‘ace along the Kittatlnny Ridge; at spots generally much less favor- able for them than at Hawk Moun- taln however. But we have reason to believe that these shoots are on the decline. The protection ac- corded the blrds here has opened the eyes of many residents of the region- It was mast heartening to find an open-minded attitude among many persons who until re- cently entertained inimical feelings towards all birds of prey,

One coo‘. morning in October a. burly gentleman from Pottsville, n buslnm man, called on u: at the Sanctuary, his mission being to get whatever hawk-conservation litera- ture we might have Imagine our concealed delight in this man's re- formation when we Iearned by his own confession that until a year ago he was a kfler of hawks on these very grounds! Ah automobile mechanic from Hamburg, also n. quondam hawk-hunter, declared that he was glad to have become informed of the true status of this misunderstood group of birds. And another gentleman from nearby Orwigsburg admitted that he had given‘ up shooting hawks because "there wasnt much sense in such sport anyway." Extremely encourag- ing was the action of certain high school teachers in Reading, Frack- vl‘le, and Begins-cities within twenty five miles of the Sanctu- ary -wh<> adopted the use of the Emergency Conservation Commit- tee's well-known teaching llhlts tn their classem The itinerant butcher. a mouthpiece for the dissemina- tion of all manner of news throughout the valley, had ideas of his cwn regarding hawks, but these he discfirdéd upon reading some pertinent meraturc that we gave him.

Most gratifying was the changed sentiment among the folks of Drehersville. who during our first season felt embittered towards the “mcddlesome outsiders." The change of feeling is reflected ln the Drehersville lad who. along with other focal men, insisted on shooting the hawks along the border of the Sanctuary. There was no border-line shooting this year, and the boy, who lived at the foot of the mountain, became a real friend, making frequent visits to the lookcuts —wlth a pair of bor- rowed field glasses!

A conspicuous and notable ex- ample of hawk protective work, inspired directly as a consequence of the crusading at Hawk Moun- tain Sanctuary. was that which was instituted in the early fall by the Pennsylvania Department of Forests and Waters. This was to the effect that killing of hawks was prohibited from the 140 fire towers scattered over the State. In addition. each fire tower ob- server received enlightening litera- ture concerning the economic status of the birds in question. As many of these towers are located on ridges over which migratory movements of hawk: take pace more or less, this action on behalf of the birds cannot be commended too highly.

We may be grateful that a saner, more tolerant attitude towards our raptorlai birds is spreading through the country. The educational work of the Audubon Societies, the Emergency Conservation Com- mittee. the American Nature As- sociation, and many local organiza- tions is advancing nobly towards averting 1n this country the sorry condition that prevails ln England. where the avlfauna is impoverish- ed by the removal of nearly all hawks.
