Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Migratory Birds — Protection — Within Exclusive Control of State. Congress has no power to prescribe regulations for the protection of migratory game birds while within the boundaries of a state.</p> <p>2. Same. A state law forbidding the shooting of ducks from a motorboat is a valid exercise of the police power, notwithstanding the same act limits the number to be killed by one person in a day.</p>
