In an address at Portland the Pine

fact that rcforestation is ono of the
urgent needs Of the day, The conser-

made plans and civic societies and in

Greece Asks Justice.

For some time past the suffering and
called to the attention and sympathies
Of the American public with emphasis
and persistence-so be it-great suf-

vastating war, and the unwillingness or
inability of grasping government and
a people lacking both patriotism and
ordination to grapple with conditions
and bring order out of chaos Let gen
erous America give generously if she
will-Greece does not ask for alms-but
she is voicing her protest against the ac-
cusations of wholesale atrocities, mur-
der and rapipe publicly and officially
brought against her by Bulgaria, in an
effort to excite sympathy. and most OF
all TO distract attention from the
proved and acknowledged atrocities
committed by her troops, which shocked
and inceused the whole civilized world.
BY declaring themselves the victims
not the perpetrators, Of unspeakable
cruelties and wanton destruction, they
have sought TO put the shoe on an
other ; foot Their activities in the
broadcast dissemination Of defamatory
literature concerning the Greeks have
reached every country on earth. In
America they have been given unwar-

therefore, was designed TO prevent any

still on The unrcserved public lands,
national parks, state lands and Indian
reservations The yearly drain on the
saw timber OF the country is estimated
al about $4,000 100000 board feet by
allowing for new growth or for any
possible increase in consumption, the
standing timber in the United States
will last in the neighborhood Of fifty

Reforestation on a large scale ap.

timber famine 1t is too late to talk
about the waste. the inexcusable waste
of timber in the past. The thing TO dc
is TO plant trees TO provide for the fu

seryatiou commission estimated that
there were about 65,000000 acres OF
denuded lands in the United States in
need Of planting, According to The
last report Of the forest service there
are in the national forests at least
100000 acres of denuded lands, capa

From the forest service We also lcarr
that the national forests contain III;

other outside water-power and irriga

sheds within the forests. Planting 70,

Under this present plans, about 10000
acres are TO be reforested annually
which will not come anywhere nea
keeping pace with the present consump

The last national conservation con
gress went exhaustively into the sub
iect OF reforestation and many val
liable suggestions were made by th'
committee on forest planting. It is TO,
carly to say whether the good advic,
has been followed to an extent tha
will be felt in the future, when the tim

Reorganization of Atlantic
League Is Latest Rumor

lat is5rumored that the present At
I lantic League will have an entire re-
organization this week. The Perth
Amboy club recently threatened to
quit, but from present indications it
Is believed that that club will stick.
1t is likely, however, that the sched-
ule may be revised and a few changes
made, in order to make the race
closer. 1t is conceded that the Long
Branch club is the strongest team in
the circuit. 1t is leading by big
margin, and. unless the other league
clubs brace up very soon in securing
new men, it appears as though an
other championship will fall to the

$500 Melted FOR
FIRE SUFFERERS
Large Attendance at LEM len
ape Benefit for Salem
Victims.

Newark's contribution to the Salem
fire fund will reach about $500. This
estimate was made today by City
as treasurer of the committee which
arranged the benefit performance
given last night in Keeney's The
atre.
The benefit was held under the
auspices of the Leni Lenape Club
The theatre was well filed when the
performance began.
Mayor Jacob Haussling and large
number OF other city and county Off
cials were present The Mayor ex-
pressed considerable pleasure at the
large attendance. Several weeks ago
the authorities at Salem appealed II
Mayor Haussllng for financial as
sistance for the hundreds who were
left destitute as a result of the fire
which swept that city. In response
to the call which Mayor Haussling
sent out to Newark residents, the
Leni Lenape Club arranged for the
benefit performance of last night.
All of the talent which went to
make up the show at Keeney's The
atre gave their services gratuitously.
A band of fifty pieces, composed of
the Musicians Mutual Protective AS
ISOLATION, Local No. 16, and Joseph
Cavallo's orchestra, furnished the
instrumental music. The various
numbers rendered by this band
brought forth repeated calls for en-
cores. Vocal selections were given by
the Arion Singing Society and tn.
United Singers. in. English and Ger
man.
Howard V. Pascal, baritone singer;
Baby Dorothy in songs and dances:
Miss Eta Waiman, singing come
dienne;. Billy Redmond, singer and
piano player: Sager Midgely & Co, in
comedy sketch, and Carletta, con-
tortionist,. were among those who con-
tributed to the bill The final number
on the program was moving pictures
of the Salem fire.
All of the members of the committee
expressed their thanks to the many
volunteers who helped to make the
affair a success. All of the stage
hands and other employees of the
house as well as the entertainers vol
unteered for the cause and John f.
McNally assisted by Anthony Grande,
looked after the box office and back
stage to see that everything went off
properly.
The committee which arranged the
affair consisted of: City Counsel
James r. Nugent, chairman; City
Treasurer Elmer A. Day, treasurer;
George W. Courier, secretary; City
Clerk Alexander Archibald and City
Sealer Of Weights and Measures John
