ing carried out, and it will serve TO
prevent further destruction of the
walls. But he desires to do some of
the work of restoration, and believes

roof would be of a great benefit. Two
Tucson gentlemen have volunteered
to join in eight others at $10O each
to make up the fund, and Mr.. Pink
ley hopes he can find the other eight

NEW YORK NEGROES
WANT ON TICKET
lUnited Press service,


ALBANY, N. Y, April 23.-Repre-
sentatives of the negroes in New
York State, in session here today,
framed request that the colore |
race be recognized by the Republican
State organization to the extent of
having representative of the negro
race on the State ticket.
Leaders of the movement contend
there are 100000 negroes in New
York State enrolled in the Republic
can party and that they should be
recognized. In 1864 a colored man
residing in Rochester was elected q
presidential elector and last year a
New York colored man was elected
to the State Assembly on the Repub-
lican ticket. This year another New
York colored man was elected to the
Assembly by the Democrats. These
are the only three negroes elected to
any State office since the organization
of the State.

CAMPAIGN ON TO
ABOLISH DIRECT PRIMARY
UNITED Press service)

WASHINGTON, April %. = The
campaign in numerous State legislat-
ures to abolish the direct primary
system in favor of the old convention
plan apparently is not gathe ing
great support among Congressman
generally.
Out of a score of Congressman,
asked for their views on the compa-
rative merits of the two systems, on
ly two declared in favor of the con-
vention plan and both of these re-
fused to talk for publication. Both
have been numbered among the op-
ponents of the primary system from
the time it was suggested.
Nearly all the others while de-
claring for the principle of the prim-
ary, advocated some change in the
particular law in force in their home
State.
The argument of primary opponents
that the primary has lowered the
standard of ability in Congress was
met with the reply from Congress
men that the. standard has not been
lowered and they pointed out that
since the advent of the primary Con-
gress has passed such measures as
the Federal Reserve Act, the Parcel
Post Act and Rural Credits Law.
Here are some of the typical ex-
pressions:
Rep. Baer, N. OAK: "The raection-
ary politician cannot control the
primary elections and therefore he
wants to get back to the old boss
ridden convention system"
Rep. Knutson, of Minnesota, new
Republican whip: "The primary sys-
tenn is preferable to the old conven-
tion plan because it gives the aver
age voter a larger voice in the af
fairs of his party"
Rep. Card, Ohio: "We have had the
primary system in Ohio for many
years and / certainly hope we shall
keep it."
Those close to the President say
that he also favors the primary sys-
tenn of nominations.

UNITED Press serviee)

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Warn-
ing the country of coming timber
shortage and the acute paper situa-
ton Percival S. Ridsdale, secretary
of of the American Forestry Associ-
alton, today gave some startling
fac,.s rs 10 conditions confronting the
U-iscl Gtates following the war.
Ridsdale, who has just returned from
France, where the offer to aid in re-
foresting that country was accepted,
said:
"War reached it's hand to the farth-
est corners of the earth and the reck-
oning of settlement is now puzzling
the brains of the world. In round
numbers the cost of the war to the
world is placed at 1877 billions of dol
lars. The secretary of war has said
that every child born for the next
one hundred years will have part
of the bill to pay. What are we do
ing to tighten the burden?
"In no field did the hand of war
reach farther or do greater damage
than in forestry. Pictures of the
devastation in France are familiar to
all of us. A fight went on in other
quarters of the globe TO satisfy the
call of war that was just as over
yhelming as that of the battle line.
The sound was the crashing to earth
of timber trees and the whir of the
saw.
"New England is no longer self
supporting in timber resources.
"a timber area in Minnesota, equal
to that of Massachusetts, was wiped
out by fire last fall, with but passing
notice.
"Had the war come fifteen years
later, we would have been hard put
to meet the call for lumber.
Southern pine manufacturers state
the bulk of the original supplies Of
yellow pine in the South viii be ex-
hausted in ten years and 5000 lum-
Der plants will go out Of existence.
at is estimated that for every 40
billion feet board measure of mer-
chantable lumber seventy billion feet
are wasted in the field or at the mill.
"We have all seen our newspapers
jump in price against the will of the
publisher. Ask the first newspaper
man you meet about the cost of white
paper and he will tell you the ques-
tion in his nightly nightmare. Paper
conservation should be taken up in
the schools, as it has by thousands
of business concerns. The situation
is acute.
