AMERICAN FLAG PROTECTED.
Supreme Court Holds IL May BE
Guarded by state.

The Supreme Court yesterday upheld
the right of a State TO enact laws to pre-
vent the dissertation OF the American flag,
and affirmed the conviction by the Ne
braska courts of the members of an
Omaha firm which sold bottled beer hav-
a registered trade mark consisting Of the
words stars and Stripes" and the ma
tional emblem.
The claim was made that the Nebraska
law under which they were convicted was
void because it took away personal lib
erty and was discriminatory In that the
use of the flag was exempted in the case
Of newspapers, books. and periodicals. for
other than advertising purposes
Justice Harlan, in delivering the opinion
OF the court, held that the law was clear
~ within the police power Of the State,
although il concerned the national en-
blcm. as long as Congress had not legis-
lated on the subject. Because Congress
had not legislate5. however. it did not
follow that the State could not.

MOREFORESTS SAVED
President Creates Reserves
Of Millions Of Acres.
PROCLAMATION JUST IN TIME
BY Issuing order Before Adjourn
ment of Congress, 1t Defeats the
PriatiOn Bill, Which Makes Reser-
vatiOns by the Executive Illegal.

by timely stroke Of the pen President
Roosevelt. on the eve Of the adjournment
Of Congress, created new reserves Of
forest lands aggregating from l5,O0OOOO to
100000 acres.
The proclamatiOns were issued in the
nick of time to defeat the effect of the
Fulton amendment to the agricultural op-
preparation bill, which makes it illegal
for the President to reserve any more
forest lands without the consent Of Con-
gress.
When it became evident that the Fulton
amendment would be agree to by both
branches Of Congress there We're busy
times in the Forest Service. which IS
bureau of the Agricultural Department,
presided over by Clifford Pinchot, one Of
the Presidents intimate friends. Prepare
tons for creating new forest reserves in
the Western States and for extending the
boundaries Of the present reserves were
hurried through in order that the Presl-
dent might issue the necessary proclamI-
ton before the agricultural appropriation
bill, carrying the Fulton amendment,
should come to the President for sigma
ture.
Bill OmciaHy Approved.
The agricultural bin was officially ap-
proved by the President on the legisla-
tive day OF March 2. and on the same
date the President prepared n memoran-
dun IN regard TO his action I'm creating
forest reserves. This memorandum was
made public yesterday. In il the Presl-
dent frankly defends an action which
might be construed by some persons as
an intention TO defeat the viii Of Congress
He mentions the fact that Congress had
under consideration at that time re-
striction Of his powers with regard to
forest reserves-and. Ia fact. the Fulton
amendment had already been agreed to-
but he declares that 20 leave these forest
lands open 20 entry would be 10 enable
the lumber syndicates' TO get hold Of
valuable property.
SO hurried were the prepare tions for
the Insurance of these proclamauons
creating new forest reserves. that the
Forest Service admitted yesterday after
noon that they could not tell how much
additional land had been reserved The
Presidents action, however, affects no
fewer than thirty-two localities in several
states ana an OF these reserves except
one are situated in States which come
under the prohibition Of the Fulton
amendment II was figured out that the
new reservations In Washington. Oregon.
and Idaho alone amount 10 about 5000
acres. and although the Forest Service
can give no definite information on the
subject the aggregate viii probably reach
