PAPER IS PRODUCED
FROM MANY SOURCES
Sixty Varieties as Long Ago
as 1770-Wood Pulp
Is Supreme.

Month by month the paper famine
grows more serious. The demand In
creases, the supply decreases. There
you have the whole trouble in a nut
shell, snys Answers, London.
As most people are aware. a very
large proportion OF the paper in COM
mon use is made from wood pulp. While
wood pulp paper is supposed to be a
fairly modern invention. In reality II
Is nothing of the sort. for so long ago
as 1870 a certain Jacob Schaffer. a pas
tor OF Ratisbon. produced little book
OF sixty pages, each leaf OF which was
made OF different material, many OF
these materials being products OF the
forest.
He used the bark OF willow, beech,
hawthorn, linden, aspen and mulberry
trees. Other sheets were made of wood
shavings, sawdust potato peelings and
nr cones. Several were composed OF
the silky down OF such plants as the
catkins Of the black poplar. He used
lichen. A copy OF his curious little book
In to be seen In the British museum.
Experiments In new materials for the
manufacture of paper are not modern.
On day In March, 1866, the then Earl
OF Derby exhibited In the house Of lords
substances, which he supposed should
be used as substitutes for linen rags,
at that date almost the only substance
available for paper manufacture. the
supply OF which was already running
sadly short.
The most important OF these novelties
was a paper made from banana stalks.
His iordship mentioned that on one es-
state In Demerara more than a hundred
and nifty thousand banana plants were
cut down yearly, and completely wasted.
Later on, In the SOC OF the last CEN
fury, esparto grass came to relieve the
situation, ana we began to import
yearly 100000 tons OF this material.
About this time It was suggested that
;bagasse" might be employed for pa
per manufacture. "Bagasse" is the
term applied to the stalks OF the sugar
cane after they have been crushed TO
remove the juice, which is the founda-
ton Of cane sugar.
Millions of acres In Florida and others
OF the southern United States are COW
cred with scrub growth Of saw palm
etto. From this plant paper has been
made as strong as parchment. which
can be washed and handled like cloth,
AMI OF inestImable value TO the trade.
Experiments OF all sorts are stil In
progress, as they have been for many
years past. Paper, indeed, can be and
has been made from many hundreds of
different kinds of raw material and
waste products. The trouble Is that
most raw fibers contain a great real of
moisture, as we'll as gluten, silica and
coloring material, all OF which are not
only useless, but extremely Injurious
In tho eyes of the paper manufacturer.
The result is that, in 90 per cent. OF
such experiments. the only decision arr
rived at Is that the game IL not worth
the candle.
Even II substance for wood pulp Il
found which will yield good paper at a
moderate cost of manufacture, the Ques-
ton at once arises as TO whether sup
plies are In sufficient quantity and of
uniform quality. IL not. once more the
experiment labor Is wasted.

It should be made clear that the
action Of the delegates of the
Argentine republic in withdrawing
from the assembly does not mean
that their government ceases to be
member of the league OF nations.
Nor does this withdrawal necessarily
imply that Argentina intends to give
the two-years' notice which by article
! Of the covenant a member is bound
TO give before withdrawal from the
league. Nothing in the covenant re
quires the members to send represen
tN.iyes to the meetings OF the assem-
bly,, for it is no doubt assumed that
such representation is privilege
rather than an umwelcome duty; in
withdrawing It's delegates as a protest

ours no penalties, and is not barred
from future participation in the work
Of the assembly If the amendments
which it desires should be effected, or
/ If 1t should on second thought dis
eDproye Of the impulsiye action OF its
delegates
TO view this action as the begin
ming Of general stampede is probably
mistake, and il certainly premature
1t Is more probably to be viewed as a
vigorous protest by a nation which
takes both itself and the league very
seriously. The Argentine IS one OF
those nations which Ike Holland and
Switzerland have shown unusual de
yotion to international law and have
made important contributions TO it,
It's experts are unsurpassed. and from
the first adumbrati0n of the league
they devoted earnest study to It and
formed very definite views as to what
wcs essential to its success The Ar
gentine republic, ike other South
American countries considers the
league more important than the Mon
roe Doctrine, and better suited to mo
dern needs but only on condition that
the league is made true society of MAJ
tons, other South American countries
are in sympathy with its protest but
have not seen fit to act with such
yigor because OF the postponement Of
the desired reforms

most stress are compulsory iurisdic-
ton for the international tribunal the
