STRENGTHEN DEFENSES
French Deputy Urges Immediate neces'
sity for Such Course at Special
Parliamentary Meeting.

! Paris, May 19.-Francois DeLoncle
| tRepublican) deputy for Indo-China
has submitted to a special parliament
airy committee on naval affairs, re
markable report of the urgent neces
| sity of strengthening the defenses
of IndO-China against the peril of {
Japanese invasion. "Indo-China." he
said, "has only two enemies to fear
namely, Japan or China encouraged
and supported by Japan. The former
constitutes the real danger, for Japan
has much to gain and little to lose and
her isolated position makes her in
vulnerable to us. She could In a few
weeks throw one hundred thousand
men into Indo-China and easily rein.
force this landing party. Owing to
Japan's great superiority in naval fore
es in far eastern waters, our feeble
division would not risk a decisive bat
tie there but would fall back on our
naval base at Saigon. There it would
be blocked as the Russians were
blockaded at Port Arthur. With our
division thus bottled up, Japan could
oppose the juncture of blockaded war
ships and relief squadron and, hav-
ing secured the mastery of the sea-
Japanese transports would be free to
land invading forces. In our present
condition could we resist such an at
tack? Evidently not; and within a
brief time, Indo-China would be prey
for invaders"
He recommended an increase of the
military force of occupation to the
minimum Of $1,000 and the establish
ment of strong naval base at Saigon
and other ports. Detained estimates
of the cost of the work of fortification
and other work totals $42 100000.

the Honorable, the Secretary of hte
Interior, of Joint Memorial No. 2, of
the Thirty-sixth Legislative Assembly
of the Territory of New Mexico, pro.
testing against the creation of the
Rio de Jemez Forest Reserve. This
area has been carefully examined by
agents of the Bureau of Forestry,
whose reports and maps are now in
process of preparation. The memor-
ialists may rest assured that no pre-
cipitate action will be taken, and be-
fore final conclusions are reached by
this Department, most careful consid,
GRAFTON will be given, not only to the
reports of our agents, but also to the
protests and legislative memorials
that have been submitted from the
Territory of New Mexico.
"In Joint Memorial No. 2, it is.stat
ed that said reserve has been estab.
lished and set apart; whereas, as a
matter of fact, the area is now mere.
ly in status of temporary withdraw
al from settlement, pending the de-
termination of the advisability of Gre
ating permanent reserve. The fact
that some tracts of land within this
withdrawal are non-forest in charac.
ter is unavoidable, because the boun-
daries are not finally fixed but mere
ly laid off roughly on township lines.
The two million acres of private land
which the memorial states occur with
in the boundaries, is in no way affect
ed by the withdrawal nor would it be
by final reservation as private lands
or claims initiated prior to the reser-
walton have exactly the same status
as those ON the public domain.
"The statement that the rules and
regulations governing forest reserves
concerning the procurement of tim
ber for mining purposes are prohibit
i've of the profitable working of mines,
loses weight in view of the fact that
these rules and regulations are at
present being revised, so that In the
future the utilization of small amounts
of timber will be practically without
hindrance.
Grazing permits for both sheep and
cattle are issued on forest reserves
without charge, and although small
cut may be necessary from the pres
ent number of sheep now using the
area, the wool-growing industry will
suffer no appreciable setback.
1.-The establishment of a forest re-
serve, far from confiscating the priv
ate lands within it's boundaries, offers
protection from range and forest fires
to the owners Of these lands, and Sc
cures to them prior rights for free use
Of timber and grazing permits. These
same ranches moreover, will continue
to pay taxes to the county on lands
for which they have received title from
the government, as will also TIL own
ers of grants that have been confirm
ed by Congress.
''It is easily to be seen from this |
Joint resolution that there is still some !
misunderstanding as to the admins |
Iration of forest reserves, neverthe-
less, the resolution presents very clear
y the point of view of the communi
lies involved, and most careful consid
Grafton will be given to this and all
other protests before the final estab-
ment of any forest reserves in this re-
yion"
