THTRTY-NINTH BIENNIAL REPORT 19 BUREAU OF PATROL AND LAW ENFORCEMENT The Bureavi of Patrol and Law Enforcement is the police force of the Division of Fish and Game. This bureau is charged with patrolling fish and game resources of the State, the apprehension of violators of the provisions of the Fish and Game Code and/or regulations of the Fish and Game Commission. During the first year of the biennium, operations of the Bureau of Patrol and Law Enforcement were affected by gasoline rationing and shortage of manpower. With the lifting of gasoline restrictions on tlie cessation of hostilities in the Pacific area in August of 1945, an increase in hunting and fishing activities took place. Our automobile transporta- tion was old, new cars were not available and new tires were in very short supply (some old prewar casings had been recapped as many as six and seven times). In spite of these handicaps an increase in arrests and fines was made over previous years. The purchase of a four-passenger single engine plane during the biennium has proved very valuable in patrol, as well as assisting other bureaus in their field work. Fines resulting from arrests made in con- junction with this air patrol have more than paid the initial cost of the plane. In order to cover ocean water areas of the State, it is recommended that an amphibian plane be obtained during the next biennium, prefer- ably a twin-engine job. This equipment will materially assist our high seas Patrol plane of the Division of Fish and Game.
