JOIN IN ATTACK ON
LOW WAGES-WALSH
Chairman of Federal Industrial
Body Advises Protest.

Chicago.-A plea that all the forces
which are striving for the betterment
Of the human race join in an attack
on low wages and 1.-The resultant tnde-
cent standard of living" was voiced by
Frank P. Walsh, chairman Of the fed
eral Industrial relations commission,
before a meeting of the City club of
Chicago.
LET us have a new declaration Of
war and a good mobilization" he said.
81 hold that every organization we have
for good should strike a blow at the
main offender, low wages.
when we divide our forces into
three great battalions-those working
for better economic conditions, those
working for better social conditions
and those working for better moral
conditions-we make a monumental
blunder Lines cannot be drawn be-
tween the economic, social and moral
life of the people. They rise or fall
together and economic conditions al
ways dominate.
''If those who are concerned with
social and moral betterment would
join those of us who are primarily
concerned with establishing economic
justice; If they would help to force
better wages, a decent standard Of
living, better environment, more
leisure and less laborious situations on
90 per cent of the people, we could
cut their work at least In half"
Asserting that at present we have
"a generation for wealth in this coun-
try that has made concrete wealth su-
pra-legal," Mr.. Walsh continued:
1--WE have a perfect right to with
hold the protection Of organized So
ciety from one man who is doing
many of us hurt. Great fortunes are
as active a menace in themselves as
they are to their possessors. They
lead to greater and greater trayesties
on justice and a more insane vision of
power.
"The owners of such fortunes must
have at some time or other crossed
the line of true economics, ethics,
equity and criminal law. An enor-
nous fortune is a wrong proved by It,

FILIPINO TREES IN PERIL.
Dean Worcester Asks That They Be
Protected From Destruction.


Washington.-Dean C. Worcester, ex-
secretary of the interior for the Phil
ippine Islands, in reporting to the
American Forestry Association of
Washington on forest conditions in
the Philippines, says that 100000
acres, or nearly one-half Of the land
area of the islands, are covered by
valuable virgin forests, while second
growth forests hold possession of an
other 20,O00,O00 acres. He says in part:
ain view of the Indifference which
we ourselves have shown toward the
conservation of our own forest re-
sources In the immediate past we
should not wonder that the Filipinos,
by which term 1 designate the Chris
tianized-civilized residents of the archi-
pelago, should still be utterly indiffer-
ent to the preservation of their for
ests as a permanent source of wealth.
zone might suppose that the sparse
population of the islands could at the
worst make comparatively little I'M
preston on their vast forests. Unfor-
tunately this is not the case. For I'M
told centuries there has prevailed the
custom of obtaining land for agricul-
ture by Telling and burning the for
est trees. Newly cleared lands have
been abandoned as soon as cogon
made its appearance. This pest Is
more than capable of holding its own
against all corners. Its wide spreading
and sharply pointed roots not only
make the soil acid, but bore through
any moderately soft obstacles which
they encounter. Furthermore, cogon
burns readily and fiercely during the
dry season, destroying any young trees
which may have established them
selves, with the result that a defor.
ested area which becomes cogonai
remains a cogonal unless man inter
venes."

on Constantinople Peter the Great
fought and won window to the

Time and again have Morse princes
and Russian grand dukes and czars
faced the south in boats and at the
head of armies with Constantinople as
their objective. Time and again they
have been thwarted in their ambitions
by forces ranging from the effect of
miraculous robe cast into the sea to
Greek fire, military prowess of Byzan-
tine and Turk and Of the armies and
fleets OF her present allies, France and
Great Britain.
Russia Wins In the End.
Traditionally Russia never abandons
an objective. Historically she has
made advances north, east, south and
west, has taken lands and cities and
has had-in the case Of the Crimea
and Manchuria-to give them back to
conquering nations. But she eventual
ly won the Crimea for her own, and
! this lesson may be repeated some CEN
turtles hence on the littoral Of the Pa
cific. To speculate ON the outcome OF
her present campaign against the Turk
and his last stronghold in Europe is
idle. But one may well believe out of
her past record of similar campaigns
that another defeat will do nothing to
conquer her ambitions to raise the
cross of the Greek church above the
crescent of Mohammed's principles or
of the more practical outlet for her
ships of war from the Black sea. There
is something beyond patriotic and reli-
gious fervors in Russias ambition to
gain control of the key to the most
ancient trade route In the world.

KANGAROO BY AUTO
Novel Sport a New Diversion
With Fast Cars.

Sydney, Australasia new form OF
real sport has been discovered in Aus
tralia-hunting kangaroos by motor
car.
The mere chase alone Is said to be
productive of many thrills, calling for
a fast car guided by an adept hand.
To pilot a motorcar through the open
country, over fields dotted with rabbit
warrens and bunch grass bunkers at
a speed of forty or forty-five miles an
hour calls for steady nerves. cool
head and consummate skill.
AS the shooting is done over the side
Of the car the man OF the wheel Is
forced to maneuver his craft much
after the fashion of a man-o'-war in
order to give the rifles chance. The
hunters shoot from humping, sway
ing seat at target which moves as
fast If not faster than the car. The
range varies from fifty to 100 yards.
The fact that prolonged drought
had made the kangaroos a pest in the
vicinity of water places caused the
automobile owners to offer their serv-
ices and their cars toward Kidding the
country of numbers Of the trouble

found exceeding difficult to bag the
creatures without persistent and ex-
pert stalking. Kangaroos will run for
ty-five miles an hour with injuries that
would stop a human being in his
tracks wounded roo can easily out
