FRENCH WILL DEMAND
SLICE OF HUN FORESTS

Washington, Mar, "a, Germany
will find that France win insist upon
Germany's paying in lumber for the
casualties OF the French forests
which were destroyed during the
war" declared p, s Rdsdale, Sec
retary of the American Forestry as
sociation, who has Just returned
from a tour of the allied countries.
Mr., Ridsdale went to Europe to m-
vestigate forest losses In France,
Belgium, Italy and Great Britain so
that the American Forestry associa-
ton, might determine how America
could help to replace the destroyed
forests of Europe, by presenting for
est seed to the various government.
"In northern France many OF the
forests" he says, "have been so
badly smashed by shell, shrapnel
and rifle fire, or so badly cut for
trench timbers. fuel wood and other
supplies for the contending armies
that they have been virtually des-
troyed. They can be restored only
by replanting. The agricultural
land lying between the forests In
various sectors of the battle front
have been so torn to pieces by shell
fire that II is no longer serviceable
for agriculture and. like the devas-
tated forests, will have to be planted
with forest tree seed so that in years
to come the she'll holes may be filled
by gradual erosion and the humus OF
the soil restored. Then the replant-
ed forests may be cut down and the
land worked over and restored for
agricultural use.
"The peace delegates are now hav-
ing prepared data upon the losses in
the French forests. and France
means to insist upon a large amount
of cutting in the German forests SO
that she may be provided with lum-
Der for reconstruction purposes as a
part OF the indemnity whicn Ger,
many will be required to pay for the
damage which has been inflicted.
Italy, Belgium and Great Britain
will make similar requests, for they
too, have suffered forest losses. and
they. too, need lumber in large
quantities and believe that Germany
should supply it to the extent Of he,
ability" Mr. Ridsdale expects tha
the American Forestry association
by securing large quantities of fores
tree seed next fall. will be able ma
terially to assist Americas European
, allies in restoring their forests.

taking over private property and
business of any kind is becoming
more and more distasteful to Ameri-
cans. Every business man realizes
that public ownership of utilities will
inevitably lead to public ownership
of other industries, and his own may
be next on the list. Where he for
merly tolerated ideas of publicly
owned utilities he is now exceedingly
suspicious of such an innovation.
The clamor of the public ownership
proponents may grow louder where
as the opposition will steadily in
crease among thinking Americans,
and without their support no public
movement can succeed.

Mickey" is considerable and Ma
BILE Normand as the incorrigible tom
bow Is one of the most captivating
figures yet presented in the movies.
Everybody has been waiting for Ma
bel to have opportunities suitable to
her exuberant nature, her natural
Joyous disposition, her keen sense
Of comedy values and her acrobatic
abandon. Here in Mickey" they
will find their hopes realized. slack
Sennett has gone the limit in his
direction Of this seven-reel picture.
Mickey" is born to the freedom Of
the big out-of-doors in mining
camp. Her affection for her old
guardian miner is fine. Transplant
ed to the east, first IS servant, then
as a society lady, Mabel Normand
fairly fills the screen with life,
There are tremendous scenes in this
rollicking comedy. The great horse
race, where Mickey" rides to vic
tory is one Of the most realistic ever
shown in picture. "Checkers," "The
Last Dollar" and "The Thorough
bred" have nothing on it.
