 ALTMAN MEET
 IN CONTEST

London, Dec. 9-EagIe and airman have met in a contest for the su- premacy of the upper air and the eagle has been defeated. The en- counter occurred high above the Fry ennes in the half light of early morn ing recently when a British officer was piloting a single scatter scout ma chine from Paris to Madrid. The air1nan was flying at a rate of about 100 miles an hour when the big eagle scared up to meet him.
 Tt was as if the eagle had thrown me a challenge" said the airnan "but the laughter died on my lips when I thought that purchance a. lucky dive by the bird. or maybe, a collision in midair, would send me crashing to the rocks beneath.
 '"The eagle numbered around me at about 90 miles an hour and I throt- tied down to the same pace while we took stock of each other. The air was then crystal clear and I could see every feather on him as we circ1ed about, for all the world like two an- tagonists above the western front.
 The eagle started to climb and l went after him yard by yard. Un- able to resist any longer, I opened the looped right over him. He made one great effort to catch up and with it his strength failed
 ''T1is wings gave a feeble beat and with every appearance of a shot plane he nose-dived to earth. I followed him down a good 1900 feet and saw him fatten out and land neter vii. lage in the foothills, completely ex- hausted"

u. S. MUST HAVE
FOREST POLICY
President Pack Urges Cooperation Be
tween Forcsters and Owners in
Protecting Them From Fire.

BETHLEHEM, N. H., Sept. 2. -
Pointing to the tremendous forest fire
losses every year and to the three states
swept by fires this summer Charles L.
Pack, president of the American For
estry association of Washington, today
urged foresters and timberland owners
to get together on cooperative fire
protection plan as the first step toward
national forest policy.
Germany built its empire and de-
veloped its wonderful strength upon a
financial foundation furnished by it's
feeests,' ssed Mr.. Peek IN addressing
the New England Forestry conference
here, "and now the United States must
decide upon a national forest policy in
order to perpetuate its timber supply.
We have no adequate forest policy
now. The United States is far behind
France, Great Britain, Germany, Ja-
pan and other nations in this respect.
The United States has only about one
fourth of its original forests and this
is now disappearing three times faster
than it is being replaced -

Supreme Council Will Not
Allow Representation of
Austria in Germany
MUST SUPPRESS
ARTICLE AT ONCE
Otherwise Allies Will Further Occupy
Left Bank of the Rhine Powers
Leave Future of Austria to the Pro-
posed League of Nations.

PARIS, Sept. 2.-The supreme council
decided today to send a note in forclble
terms to the German government pointing
out the contradiction with the Versailles
treaty of the provision in the new Ger
man constitution providing for the repre-
sentation of Austria in the German
Ieischsrath. The council demands the
suppression of the article within a fort
night declaring that otherwise the allies
will be compelled to undertake further
occupation Of the left bank of the Rhine.
The Austrian peace treaty, now virtual
ly completed by the supreme council for
submission to the Austrian penipOtentl-
aries, leaves the future of Austria largely
with the league of nations. The league
will be able to decide whether Austria
shall be permitted to join Germany. As
France, Switzerland and many other coun-
tries opposed such union there appears
to be little chance of Austria's securing
permission to terminate her existence as
d separate state, should she 50 desire in
the future.
There seems to be general feeling OF
dissatisfaction in peace conference circles
with the treaty which was adopted from
the German treaty and does not fit a
small power well The council had agreed
today on virtually all sections of the
treaty because there was a general wearl
ness. with discussion
