TREES FOR PALESTINE
Forestry One OF the Greatest Needs o.
Holy Land.

Two principal recommendations
which the civilian commission now in
Palestine will make 4 beginning for
the reconstruction of that country
will be scheme for beginning forest
station, and a proposal for The con-
servation Of water supply by. storage
and by opening up old springs.
A preliminary statement from a
member of the committee says:
"The greatest of all Pa!estine's
needs is a forest station. For cen
turies the land las been denudea of
its trees, with most disastrous conse-
uuences. for the heavy rains at certain
seasons, instead Of beHetitting the soil,
over more than four-fifth of the area
carry away in rushing torrents much
Of the little sol! that remains en- the
high lands and valley slopes.
Palestine has not always been tree
less. The Roman empcrors had valr'-
able forests in the country, and Alb

among the trees, but today ore nigh;

CRENSHAW AGAIN ON TRIAL
Young U. of Va. Students Plea VIII
Insanity.


Charlottesville, Va, May 16.-GooG
progress was made yesterday in the
trial of S. Dabney Crenshaw ", OF
Richmond, Va, or the charge of burn
ing the chemical laboratory ct the
University Of Virginia on the night Of
January 90, 1917. The jury was soon
selected. Judge 2. T. ". Duke, attor-
ney for the commonwealth made the
opening statement. lie detailed the
history of the burning of the labora-
tory and the taking and sale OF The
platinum by the accused. He said as
the charges had been admitted and
the defense would claim that the &C
cused was not responsible for his
acts, it would be for the jury to pass
upon this question upon the evidence
to be produced.
Robert Scott, of Richmond, Of coun-
sci for Crcnshaw. followed Judge
Duke, and set before the jury the line
of defense which would be followed,
and the grounds on which they would
be asked to acquit the former chem
istry student. He said it would De
proved that the young man was at
fected with a-nental disorder which
rendered him unable to resist an in.
pulse to take money and other things
of value net his own. Instead OF be-
ing sent to the penitentiary, Mr.. Scott
said Crenshaw should be sent to an
asylum for observation and further
treatment. The verdict asked would
be mot guilty, because Of insanity a.
the time of commission.

BY AIR TO EUROPE NEXT.
Writer Thinks This Problem Should
Be Solved By Student of War
Puzzles.

Ernest P. Goodrich, in the American
Review of Review, asks: "Where is
the Wanted American initiative and
inventive genius?
"To be sure Americans invented the
submarine and the aeropiane and laid
the foundation for the tank in the
caterpillar tractor, but others have so
far improved on these American ideas
that the latter are almost pnrecoG
nizable now in their offspring. The
creation CT the Liberty motor is al
most NJ to American ideals Of Aneri-
can efficiency, and we pray that it vii;
be satisfactory in the same degree. We
have heard rumors Of submarine listen
ing devices, torpedoes that seek their
mark by sound and unsuitable ships.
For military reasons, perhaps, it is
inadvisable that the details of these
inventions should be made public We
are trying TO build ships, but almost
without shipyards, material or men.
We should Immediately transport to
Europe more soldiers and supplies
than the present fleets of the world
can carry.
Why not undertake to make deliv-
cries Of some of these war necessi-
ties by other means? Why not train
a corps of 1000 long-distance air pi-
lots and make deliveries of aeroplanes
cn the wing?
Vessels are being conveyed; why not
establish a boat-patroled route across
the Atlantic from Newfoundland to
The Azores, 10 Portugal, to France and
send orr machines through the air?

z4France has put one political party

faith-faith in victory. Finally,
France has but one policy, that Of
service and sacrifice continued until
triumph"
Daniel Blumenthal, former mayor
of the Alsatian city of Colmar and now
head of the World League for the Res
titution of Alsace-Lorraine thus sum-
med up the effect of Germany's latest
colossal pounding of Frame.
"But the situation is serious" he
continued. SIN Paris the men who are
carrying the numbing responsibility
are grave-faced, and always praying
for the advent of the Americans, more
ard more Americans, who must finally
turn back the German hordes to their
place beyond the Rhine.
"The faith of France is pinned on
the American soldier, and their regl-
ments cannot gather too quickly along
the sorely tried lines to relieve the tell
sion. All the parties in France, rep
resented and not represented in the
government, and ali the people are
more united for war today than ever
since the invasion in August, 1914,
and despite the threatening moment
their confidence has never been SO SOL
idly grounded.
"Admiration and affection for Amer
leans is steadily increasing n Franc,
for the severely tested republic finds
that its new allies are proving up
even better than was eXpected-anG
much was expected of the American

"And now word about US Asa

Peters. 1T is not painful. not injuri-

weeks old.
The best possible instrument for
this purpose is a large pair of sharp
