BIG AREAS ARE REFoREsTED
France lmpracticable in Mississippi
Valley, Say Engineers.

In connection with fiood-control
agitation, more OF less attention is
being drawn to the subject OF re-
forcstation, says Popular Mechanics
Magazine. While this plan, accord
ing to some engineers, is manifest
ly impracticable so far as its appli-
cation to large streams like the Mis-
sissippi or Missouri rivers is con-
cerned, in some cases it undoubtedly
does have a certain value.
In the mountain regions of France
and Germany the scheme has been
employed, and an interesting ex-
ample is afforded near the headwa-
ters of the Ubaye river in the lower
Alps. The work was commenced in
1887 when the mountainsides were
entirely bare. Masonry barrages
were constructed at frequently inter-
vals to catch silt and check serious
erosion. The mountains were then
retimbered. Today, instead of being
a bleak, barren waste as in former
times, this district is covered with
trees.
Since the land in this instance
has little agricultural value, the chief
objection to reforestation cannot be
raised. In all, according to the latest
figures obtainable, France has re-
timbered 629,488 acres.
But to reduce the height of food
waters at Memphis, merely from the
stage reached in 1912 to that of the
next highest record, the reforesta-
tion of $4,000 square miles of the
upper valleys most fertile land
would be required, according to the
president of the Mississippi river
commission.

APPROPRIATIONS
FOR WAR RELIEF
REACH BIG sum
SIT, ,843, ,435.35 Set Aside by Red
Cross for Work at Home
and Abroad.

The War Council of the American
Red Cross has just made public re-
port showing appropriations totaling
SIT ,843, ,435.35, which were made from
the Red Cross War Fund up to Jan
uary 8. For foreign relief, the report
states, $44,657 1850 was set aside, ST.
612, 1920 has been appropriated for
United States relief and $24, ,323, ,181.12
expended for supplies, either for for
eign shipment or for distribution or
resale to Red Cross Chapters in this
country.
gThe latter item, the statement sets
forth, includes $7,063, ,649.12, which is
included also in the 30,519 259.60, ap-
propriated for work in France, as well
as 11,2S8,417 for material for resale
to chapters. According to the report,
it may thus be considered as working
fund and as liquid asset rather than
an expenditure.
The total appropriations for admins
tration at national headquarters and
at division headquarters, of which
there are IA, amounted to S1,2S9292
lOI llit ldSl SlA fioliio pew Lis
includes $365 900 for divisional admin
istration expenses and $250000 donat-
ed for telegraph and cable service,
the latter item extending over con-
siderably longer period of time.
Dues Pay Administration Cost.
Appropriations for administration
| did not come out of the War Fund,
but were more than covered from the
portion of membership dues received
at national headquarters, the War
Council says These membership dues,
which more than paid for all admins
trative expenses, were dues received
before the recent membership drive
was made.
The report of the War Council
states:
mo expenses of administration in
the United States were paid for out of
the Red Cross War Fund. All admin
istration is more than met by men,
bership dues Thus every dollar con-
tributed for relief goes to relief"
The following is a recapitulation of
appropriations as announced by the
War Council:

Every appropriation since the ap-
pointment of the War Council up to
January Is itemized in the report,
together with a detailed description of
the purposes for which the appropria-
tions were made. For instance, the
item, $4,432O14 for supplies for dis
tribution in the United States and
abroad, covers appropriations for the
purchase of 297 1888 blankets, $4,000
comforters 100000 sweaters, 100000
helmets, 250000 wooden gloves, 100000
wooden wristlets and 250,000 woolen
socks.
Condition OF the War Fund.
The total amount pledged In the
campaign for the Red Cross War Fund
last June was $103, 100000, exclusive
of dividends declared by corporations,
the War Council announces. The to-
tai amount collected was 500, ,925, ,256.05
up to December %, 1917.
In addition there has been collected
direct at national headquarters, either
in special or direct contributions, $3,-
319,352 10, making a total amount col
lected, less certain refunds, S97 ,226,-
256.65. Included in this amount, how
ever, is the known amount that was
received from dividends.
The War Finance Committee of the
Red Cross estimated the total gross
amount which 1t will receive will be
S103, ,525 ,955,64, but this does not in
elude sum which amounts to S3000,-
900 retained by chapters, in accordance
with the arrangement by which they
were to receive 25 per cent. of collec-
tions. Thus the gross amount of the
War Fund may be stated to be, includ-
ing interest to date, S106, 525 900, the
Var Council announces.

CANTOR REJECTS CAMPANINI OFFER
TO SING IN GRAND OPERA.

The Rev. Josef Rosenblatt, cantor of
the First Hungarian Congregation Ohab
Zedek, one of the most orthodox Jewish
congregations of New York, has refused
an offer of an engagement as leading
tenor with the Chicago Opera Company,
with a salary of $1,000 a performance,
because he did not think it right for
him, as an orthodox Jew and cantor in
a synagogue, to appear upon the oper-
attic stage The offer was made to Mr..
Rosenblatt by Cleofonte Campanini, Gen
eral Director of the Chicago Grand Opera
Company, after he had heard Mr.. Rosen-
blatt sing several songs in Hebrew at
private concert in Chicago on March Is,
while the rabbi was singing in Chicago
for the benefit of the Jewish War Relief.
"Mr. Campanini came to me-" Mr..
Rosenblatt said, latter my concert and
asked me to join the Chicago Opera Com
pany, with salary of $1,000 perform
ance When I told him that / did not
think it proper for me as an orthodox
Jew to appear upon the operate stage,
Mr.. Campanini said that he would guar
antee that I need not remove my beard,
nor sing in any performance on either
Friday or Saturday. and that he would
not ask me to sing any operas that would
hurt the feelings of an orthodox Jew.
In fact, Mr. Campanini said that he
wanted me to play the part of Eleazar in
The Jewess,' by Halevy, an opera highly
laudatory of the Jews, in which Rosa
Raisa would be the Jewess."
Mr. Rosenblatt is about five feet tall
and, because of the shortness of his
stature, coupled with the strength of his
voice, has become known as "the little
fellow with the big voice." His appear
ance is picturesque. A flowing black
beard almost covering his shirt front and
his curly black hair waves about like so
many batons as he sings.
Mr.. Rosenblatt was born near Kiev,
Russia, and began singing when he was
nine years old. Later he studied music
at Pressburg, Austria, where he was
known as "The Wonder Child" because
of his ability. When he was eighteen
years old, he became cantor, singing
first in synagogues in Hungary and later
at the Israelit Synagogue Verband in
Hamburg, Germany. Six years ago he
was brought to New York by the Congre-
cation Ohab Zedek.
