Following its reading Mr. McMan-
us moved that II be received. record
ed and filed, but Mr.. Mulvena was ON
his feet in an instant. He said there
seemed to be some feeling against
the committee of the Central Labor
union which recently appeared before
Council relative TO the enforcing of
the State law limiting the hours of
work on municipal projects to eight
hours. but he expressed the belief that
the committee was honest In its con-
victions and endeavors. He said the
law in question is on the statute books
and the courts have held il consti-
tutional.
He said the ertire city is proud to
have company like the du Pont En-
gineering Co here, but If it is going
TO create scale of wages that ar,
not sufficient to enable a workman tc
live, then il is time for Council t.
take some action. He said the mair

contractors should be made to liv,

hour law. He said he had facts frou

PINE FORESTS NOT
NEAR DEPLETION
Present Rate Of Cutting Would Take
Many Years to Exhaust
the Supply.

NEW ORLEANS. La. Oct. 2.-The
Southern. Pine Association authorizes
the following for publication:
1.-THE forests Of southern pine are
found in the South Atlantic and Gulf
States, stretching in an almost un-
broken belt from Virginia to Texas,
and comprising. according to the best
available records. at the present time
at least 260. 200. 000, 900 feet Of stand
ing timber. At the present rate of
cutting-10. 900. 10000 to 000.000,000
feet a year--it would require more
than twenty years to exhaust this
supply, not counting new growth
which has been estimated to exceed
i've billion feet a year and which
will be much more than that when
economic conditions make closer util-
ization OF the forest material possible.
The idea now prevalent in some
quarters, that the southern pine for
ests are near depletion, is erroneous.
To the contrary. southern pine (orig-
inal GROWTH is and will continue to
be for many years, available in large
quantities, in all standard sizes and
grades, and well manufactured, though
there will perhaps be a falling Off in
production within the next six to
eight years. during which various
large sawmills will have cut their
timber. These large mills viii be
succeeded by many smaller mills.

MAJOR LEAGUES
FOUGHT TO LAST
First Place Decided Only in Last Few
Games; Second and Third Places
Decided Yesterday.

NEW YORK. Oct. 2.--The struggle for
first division places in the major leagues
was carried through to the final games
today. With first place in both leagues
decided only in the last few days Of the
season. the first for second place in the
National and third place in the American
remained in doubt until today when the
Pittsburg Nationals and the st. Louis
American were respective victors.
The possibility of tie for second place
in the National race, with a consequently
greater share in the worlds series re-
ceipts. goaded the st. Louis Cardinals
to try to repeat the feat of the Giants
in taking five straight games from
Pittsburg. The Cardinals defeated Pitts
burg twice Thursday. again Friday and
fought to tie Saturday. Today the Pr
rates turned back the Cardinals in
game played on a muddy field, which
prevented any chance of playing off yes
terday's tie.
Splendid pitching enabled washington
to keep close to the ST. Louis Browns.
The Browns batted hard and won eight
of their last II games. while the Senators
II out Of II. Today ST. Louis
retained its half game advantage over
Washington when both teams won.
The two New York teams came through
the finaI week displaying strength at
the bat. The Yankees pitchers were hit
harder than the Giant boxmen. In field
ing there was little to choose between
the clubs. A comparison OF the two
world series rivals shows that since the
week Of August 81, when New York
pulled Pittsback within striking distance
by taking five straight. the Giants have
won rs games out of 81 and the Yankees
30 out of as, or percentages of .676 and
698 respectively.
