Seaplanes for Forest-Fire Patrols,

Guarding our forests with sea-
planes Seems, at first thought, an un-
likely procedure, but, according to
the May Popular Mechanics Maya
zine, this method may be used in Can
aca and northern Michigan. When
a map is consulted it is revealed that
hundreds of lakes dot the territories
the airmen would patrol, thus fur
nishing ideal landing places for small
flying boats. Many former forest
rangers from both sides of the inter
national boundary have become mil
itary flies, and, on discharge, should
furnish an excellent nucleus for a
service of this sort.

COTTON AND COTTON PRICES.
CONTINUED from page l, column o.

tion of poverty or prosperity for a
very large proportion of the people
of the South. 1t is a great moral and
educational issue, because it means
the education or the continued illit-
eracy of a very large proportion of
the poorer classes OF the South.
The man who opposes the higher
range of prices for Southern cotton,
which would completely change the
economic and educational life Of this
section, is deliberately Working for
human slavery, more CALLING, more
ldegrading, to the poorer classes,
white and black, of the South than
was the slavery OF ante bellum days.
He who wants to place himself OH
the side of poverty and against edu-
cational development should favor a
low price for cotton. All others will
favor profitably high price.
For many years the Manufacturers
RECORD has taken the ground tnaL
the South would be infinitely better
off if it had never raised a bale of
cotton. Under that condition its ag-
riculture would have been diversified
and it would be far richer than it is
to-day, and slavery would never have
been tied so tightly around the neck
of the South. Today the South can
discontinue raising cotton and turn
ito diversified agriculture with far
less loss 10 itself than would be the
loss to the rest of the world. If the
world wants the South u raise cot
ton, it must pay profitable living
price.
