Washington. March 4.-Seventeen million acres
Of forest lands have been added to the forest re-
serves of the United States by procamations issued
by President Roosevelt, made public to-day.
Thrty-two forest reservations are created or In
creased in area by these proclamatiOns. The fol-
lowing memorandum made public at the White
House:
These forest reserves were determined upon and
som n mon t oe Vi Ia twothirds Of the cases some
years ago-in the exercise of the duty imposed

justify the proposed action.
The necessary proclamations under existing law
whether 1 should refrain from acting under the
listing law because there is now under consideration
require Congressional action upon the establishing
Of such forest reserves. If did not act reserves
which consider very important for the interests
Of the United States would be wholly or in part dis
slpated before CONGRESS has an opportunity again
70 consider the matter Whlic under the action
which J propose To take they will be preserved;

such position it may desire anent the discontinue

subject by itself and on It's own merits. II by any

Failure my part 10 sign those proclamations
Der would fan into the hands OF the uIfber syndi-
cate before Congress has an opportunity to act,
whereas the creation OF the reserves means that
this timber will be kept in the interest Of the home
maker; for our entire purpose in this forest re-
serve policy is to keep the land for the benefit Of
the actual settler and home maker to further his
interests In every way, ana. while using the natu-
raj resources of the country for the benefit OF the
present generation also To use them in such man
ner as t. keep them unimpaired for the benefit OF
the children now growing up to inherit the land

ried by Railroads.

Washington. March 4-The last Official act OF
Mr.. CorteIyou as Postmaster General was TO issue
the following order:

mails weighed shall be- used a divisOr for
obtaining the average weight per day.
For many wears it has been the practice or the
Postofilce Department officials in determining the
avrage daily weight 90 mail carried by railroads 10
use a divisor OF the total weight only the num-
her OF what tile law termed working days. that
Is. six days in each week. instead Of seven, sun
days being omitted. or course. mail is carried
every day including Sundays and !n obtaining the
total weight OF the mail carried by given rail
road the weight Of the mail carried on Sundays
was included. 1t IS the custom TO weigh the mails
every four years for ninety successive working
days The weight OF the mails carried on sun
weight actually taken aggregated 1O5 in three
months weighing. Instead Of dividing tine total
for the lo5 days by 100 TO obtain the average daiv
weight, it divided by 90 the number Of work
ing days. This ~ stem or immense advan-
tage To tho railroads. by II their average daily
weight which they were paid by the government
was increased materially
Much criticism of tho system was made IN and
out of Congress. but the railway mail officials
stood equarelv their Interpretation Of the law
and continued 10 use go instead los as a divisor
Hereafter. under the order of Mr. CorteIvou tho

mail is taken will be used the dvisor so that r.
average daily weight will be determined bv the in
Clusion OF Sundays in the divisor IT, ON the con
trary, a road carries mail only the six working
