NEW NATIONAL
FOREST TO OPEN
MOUNT MITCHELL RECREATION
PARK is LOCATED IN THE
LAND OF THE SKY"

The Southern railway and the fOres-
try department of the federal govern
ment are preparing literature and
maps in regard to the Mount Mitchell
national forest, in the heart of the
Land of the Sky" which will be open
ed soon to the people Of the United
States for camping and recreation pur-
poses.
With the object of protecting the
superb primeval forests and the vast
natural water resources of the Mount
Mitchell region, the United States gov
eminent acquired the area of the re-
serve After mature consideration it
was decided to convert it into a recre-
alton park-a magnificent playground
for the people of the entire country.
In a recnet letter from II. S. Graves,
chief forester of the United States, TO
w. H. Tayloe, passenger traffic man
ager of the Southern railway, the
plans which the government will make
effective in the Mount Mitchell ma
tional forest are outlined.
Free permits may be obtained for
temporary camping purposes" MI.
Graves writes, land it is required only
that necessary precautions be taken in
building and extinguishing the camp
fire and that the cutting of green tim
Der be avoided and that the grounds
be kept in a clean and sanitary condi-
ton"
Permits will be issued for summer
homes at the rate of not less than $40
a year The rates for revocable per-
mits for summer homes may be as low
as IS a year. Camps of a permanent
nature will have to pay permits also
stated Mr. Graves. He explained in his
letter that the primary object of the
term permits it not to secure revenue,
but to promote the use of the national
forest land for recreation purposes.
In the Mount Mitchell national park
campers may live a delightfully."- care
free life, in ideally beautiful and
healthful surroundings, at practically
no expense except their subsistence.
Thus the opening of the park will Of

STATE ARSON LAW
IS DEFECTIVE
THIS is THE STATEMENT MADE
BY COLUMBUS SOLICITOR
GENERAL.

That Georgia's arson laws are de-
fective and that this has been his
contention for some time, was the
statement made by Solicitor General
Palmer Of the superior court of Mus
.cogee coaIltYs yesterday. a
This statement by the sOlieitm
grew out of an article that appeara
in the Macon Telegraph TO the eHea
that Georgia's arson laws were b
fective
Mr.. Palmer said: THE defect in
Georgia's arson law is that a man
can burn his own home in the dpuhs
try and be guilty of nothing more
than cheating and swindling, proyid
ed his home is insured A case OF
this nature was recently brought TO
the superior court and on that ground
we could not prosecute the defend
ant.
Except in cities towns and vii
lagos, a man is not held amenable to
the law, under the provisions as they
now exist, for the destruction of his
house or barn. There are half a
dozen sections of the code treating
the charge of arson, but in every in
stance, except that covering towns,
cities or villages, the charge may be
made only where the house or barn
destroyed is the property Of another"
Such a situation brings to light the
necessity of an amendment of the law

BISHOP NELSON TELLS OF GREAT
UNDERTAKING or THE EPIS-

! In his sermon a few days ago in
Gainesville the Rcyerand Cledand K.
Nelson. Bishop OF Atlanta, said in
part:
| "The Episcopal church has deter
imfned to undertake DE largest Single
lea rprise in its history namely, to
,situte a system Of pensions for its
kkrd3red clergy. DJtt
| NBefore entering upon this policy
tie church did two things; %
MADE a careful census Of the salaries
alOB paid to clergymen, and % had
calculations made by expert actuaries
of the cost Of maintaining a system
he permanent success of which
lthgTc could be no doubt.
'"rhe census Of salaries, now COM
pleted, shows the following principal
facts.
There are APO men in the active
service Of the Episcopal church in the
United States. Their average salary
is 81 200 a year. This is not all cash,
hut includes the value of a house
when provided. More than $500 of
these ministers, over one-half the
total number, receive less than 81 800
a year Only 237 including the 1926
bishops receive $4,000 or over.
More than 700 men are paid less
than $1,000 and many of these 700
are the older clergy. with very hard
tasks. The church now is virtually
carrying out a scheme of retirement
at the expense of older men.
These meagre salaries are paid to

'clergymen serving what is often as
serted to be the richest church men,
bership in America. Those men are
expected to have good education, to
dress well, to live and move among
people where rents, are high, keep
open house, always appear cheerful,
and preserve their physical vigor.
They are men of devotion who often
exercise leadership in their commun-
selves, their wives and their children
on the salaries paid them, with little
or no thought of outside interests"
