El TIMES, de Nueva York, publica
un largo editorial acerca de la inter-

tando que ningun norteamericano SEN
sato quiere que haya guerra con Mejico
y que la Intervention seria La guerra.

temen la Intervention y saben que ma
da podria detener la fuerza militar de
los Estados Unidos una vez que Sc deci-
diera esta. Por ESQ, observa el Times
es que estan tratando de arreglar Las
reclamaciones de extranjeros.
La Intervention tendria' sin embargo
inconvenientes. A menos que los Esta-
dos Unidos consiguieran que Sud-Ame-
RIGA la aprobase. seria una aventura de
resultados dudosos. Los mejicanos, ade-

TIMBER SITUATION
CRITICAL, HE SAYS

Alfred Gaskill, State forester Of
/ New Jersey, cannot agree with some
lforesters that the lumbermen have
no interest in the stipulatiOns OF a
national forest policy. This is the
/ statement in a signed opinion in the
hrst OF a series appearing in the
American Forestry Magazine which
is. presenting the views Of experts on
| what should be comprised in a ma
/ tional forest policy. Charles Lathrop
/ Pack, also Of New Jersey, and presi-
/ dent Of the American Forestry Asso-
citation. has called for an expression
] % opinion as to the best features Of
/ a national forest policy, which All
agree Is badly needed. The discus
! sion is led by Col Henry S. Graves,
! United States forester, who outlines
| his mine points" Of a national forest
| policy.
Mr.. GasIlilI says:
There is an insufficient replace
ment Of the waning store Of timber
| in this country. What should be done
! cannot be decided ofhahd. A full
| discussion Of the conditions, oppor-
I Uunities, and needs in each section Of
| the country must precede the formu-
lation Of a policy.
"A policy 70 be truly national must
have in mind full recognition of the
/ facts that the greater part Of the
/ forest lands in this country are in
| private possessions and under State,
not Federal. control.
"I cannot agree with some foresters
that the lumbermen have no interest
in the question. That their interest
Is largely ortsolely financial is a fact,
but present conditions must change
radically before numbering can be-
come localized and permanent
Before we can approach the owners
Of timber lands with any chance Of
securing results. before we can hope
to impress legislatures and publicists
with the reasonableness Of our pro-
gram, three things must be estab-
lishe; first, the fitness of q given
area for continued use Through one
rotation at least) as forest; second,
security against destruction; and
third, assurance Of the total, or ulti-
mate tax levy.
"The situation is critical but not
hopeless by any means. A Construc-
tive policy probably can be based
upon encouragement to woodland
owners by the Federal Government
and by the States; upon active in-
sBruction and help to the smaller
woodland owners-similaF to that
furnished farmers; upon 6re protec-
ton, and upon a modified tax prac-
tice; all OF which will tend to estab-
lish an insurabls interest in grow
ing forests.
81 emphasize the phrase growing
forests To my mind the key Of the
situation is there-not in control over
forests already mature, and which
under every silvicultursl law should
fall to the ak as speedily as possible

Abyssinian Filings Big Anaconda
Around Cage to Wake 1t
for Visitors.

Washington. - Duke Dodjazmatch
Nado, a member of the imperial
Abyssinian delegation now visiting
this country, picked up the huge ana
conda in the Washington zoo and
calmly shook the sleeping reptile into
consciousness. Onlookers gasped.
The delegation was visiting the
zoo, where specimens of the wild
beasts which were sent to former
President Roosevelt from Abyssinia
by Emperor Menelik II are quartered.
They had paused by the cage Of the
anaconda. 1t was asleep. One of the
party expressed a desire to see the
snake move and the guide prodded 1t
with stick, but it dozed on. When
further proddings failed to disturb it
Duke NadO thrust his hand into the
cage and, taking the reptile by the
throat, shook it until it quivered and
squirmed into wakefulness. Then he
quietly tossed it to the far end of
the cage.
His act gave the party thrill, but

claims is the secret of his physical
perfection. He is twenty years old,
weighs 152 pounds, stands 66A inches
and has a chest measure of "a to 80
inches.
