Abstract
The American
Federation of
A vi cui ture will
soon retain the
services of a Washington
Jaw firm
to represent a vicultural
inte rests
in the nation's
capitol.
The ever
growing
threat of
new legislation
and governmental regulations restricting
the freedom of aviculturists to pursue
their hobby has demonstrated the need
for a professional approach. It is the
opinion of A.F.A.'s board of directors
that only an attorney can effectively
communicate to law-makers the negative
ramifications to us of well-intended but
ill-conceived actions on the part of federal
government, which has been unduly
influenced by extremists within some
so-called conservation groups.
