A BEAR STORY
"I _ v
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5, (/P>—
.The Forest Service, Friday, came
'to the defence of its bear census
of Alaska. It was attacked Sun
day by James W. Holzaworth, New
York huntefr, conservationist and
! author. The Forest Service said
ithat grizzlies and big brown bears
I increased from three thousand five
to forty five hundred between
[1931 to 1932, which Holzaworth
said was impossible because bears
breed only once in two years. The
largest increase possible would be
five hundred He also charged
that the report was influenced by
concessions by pulp companies who
want to exploit Admiralty Island
which Holzaworth and others want
for bear reserves. Forest officials
said the census was conducted
scientifically thru field observations
and carefully made statistics. A
check afterwards held that the
work included measuring bear
tracks coming to the rivers for
salmon, rejecting all those corr
esponding tracks. Reports said
oddly enough, results gave even
figures as denial that politics in
fluenced the count. It was point
ed out that pulp concessions on
the island were cancelled because
the manufacturers were unable to
work with the plans.
