Hugh Downs, Around Tomorrow, Bings (Doubleday) Federal Agents Raid Eagle Feather Dealers In tf'seriek of com (limited in ten states, Special Agents of the U.S. Fish and raids ( 3H - I L- Z3i fc Wildlife Service have seized thousands of eagle and migratory bird feathers, dozens of eagle and migratory bird carcasses, and hunch eds of American Indian curios made with parts of Federally-protectebirds. Assistant Secretary of the interior Nathanial P. lived tmtav. More than 60 individuals, d operating independently, were either arrested or issued summonses for trafficking in eagle and migratory birds. Most of those cited were and were charged with selling prohibited items largely to tourists and collectors in violations of Federal laws forbidding all commercial activities involving eagles and migratory birds. The operation was the largest of its kind in the history of the Fish and Wildlife Ser- vice. THE SEARCHES and seizures took place in homes, curio shops, Indian artifact stores, pawnshops, and other small outlets in Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming, Iddio, Montana, and Oregon. Fish and Wildlife Service agents were assisted by state wildlife officers. Dr. Charles M. Loveless, Region 6 Director of the Fish and Wildlife Service, said one arrest was made and three summonses issued in Colorado; several arrests made and summonses served in South Dakota; five summonses handed out in Wyoming; and in Montana one person was arrested and four served with summonses. Agents seized freshly-kille- d eagle and hawk carcasses along with wings, daws, feet and feathers of these and other birds. non-India- n re-ti- SOLID STATE QUARTZ See the numbers form magically before your ayes reacting to the electronic pulses.

Agents also seized a large number of records. ITHIN THE last year, the Fish and W'ildlife Service has inW tensified its investigations of commercial traffic involving eagles and migratory birds. Last April, over 40, (XX) feathers were seized in Oklahoma with 24 persons cited for selling. Several of the cases made today were the results of investigations initiated two years ago and required considerable undercover work. As the popularity of American Indian artifacts has increased in recent years, a lucrative market has developed for the eagle and migratory bird parts and feathers used to decorate many Indian curios. Eagle carcasses currently sell on the black market for as much as $175 with hawk carcasses commanding as much as $45. Wing and tail feathers are used to make xvar bonnets and to decorate wearing apparel and other aticles. Most bonnets and headdresses soil in the $100-70price range, but some have been 0 offered for sale for as much as $1,500. The feathers of as many as ten eagles are required to make some types of bonnets. THE REASON that Congress has prohibited the sale, trade, or purchase of feathered Indian artifacts, Reed said, stems from the fact that any traffic in protected species invariably increases the pressure on surviving members of the population as individuals seek to prolong and increase the commerce. Reed added: Investigations like this are in no way intended to interfere with American Indian religious or ceremonial activities. While Federal law expressly prohibits commercial activities involving eagles and migratory birds, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service issues eagle parts and feathers free to Indians by special permit for lrona fide tribal religious ceremonies. The Department of the Interior maintains a repository where the remains of eagles that are killed by accident or die naturally are stored for such free distribution. The Bald Eagle Protection Act carries a maximum criminal penalty of a $5,(XX) fine and one year in jail for first offenses. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act provides for a $2,000 fine and two years in jail for a person convicted of selling protected birds. Preliminary work in the development of a shale oil processing plant in the Rio Blanco area of Northwestern Colorado by Gulf Oil Company and Standard Oil of Indiana is continuing. Four of 30 exploratory holes have lreen drilled to determine the extent of shale rock seams that can be open pit mined and ground water resources. One 200 foot and foot towers and four monitoring stations to gather data for air quality information and meterological have been constructed. The data from the towers is fed into a computer that gives averages on an hourly, daily and quarterly schedule for the environmental impact studies. Contracts for biological studies will be awarded soon. Aerial photography and detailed mapping of the tract has begun. KRAFT IMPERIAL MARGARINE 0 V GtftllTSlT-e- imz O K0 Tb- - .
