Mr. Taft pointed out that he had

sion an acr specifically to legalize such
Withdrawals.
Mr.. TAFT emphasized the fact that
real conservation involves wise, non
wasteful use by the present genera

but that "the burden is on the present
generation promptly to solve it and
not TO run away from it as coward

Germany's Novel Movement,

Germany has started a unique move
ment for the improvement Of towns
and small cities by constructing a
number Of garden cities, one Berlin
society having acquired a large plot of
land on the northern outskirts Of the
city for the construction under the
name of Frahau Of the first real gar
den city of the capital.
This city will be built in a pictur-
esque billy part Of the state forest,
will have its own railway station and
will be laid out regardless of cost as
regards external adornment. Judging
from reports from all sections of Ger.
many, the idea has taken a firm hold
on the people. the feature most insist
ed upon being the abandonment of the
fiat house and the substitution of the
small house and villa on the English
model. In Bavaria. where there is al.
ways a shortage of houses. the GOV
eminent will transfer for garden pur.
poses part of the state forests in the
vicinity of large towns. AT Magdeburg
houses with large gardens for single
families will soon be rentable for
about $50 a year American money. 1t
is to be hoped that this country will
soon undertake the same kind of de.
velopment.
