CLEMENCEAU TOOK HIS
RECENT SILENCE CURE
IN A MEDIEVAL CASTLE

Paris, Sept. 26.-Former Pre-
mer Premier Clemenceau took his
recent "silence cure" in a medie-
val castle perched $500 feet above
the blue waters of the Mediterra-
mean at Olivese, on the island Of
Corsica.
Nicholas Pietri, the owner Of the
castle, has been a lifelong friend
and newspaper associate of Glenn
enceau. Pietri is as deaf as the
proverbial post.
II have travelled a lot since the
armistice," the former premier Is
reported to have said, "but in In
dia, Egypt, the Soudan, everywhere
l have been, / have had to talk
too much. Now what l want Is ST.
lence. Am / sure to get that with
Pietri. He Is so deaf that l won't
be tempted to volunteer any small
talk to him and he is very tactful
in not asking questions, realizing
that the effort required for me to
answer him is too much for my
old lungs"
Despite Clemenceau's plea of
weakness and his age-S1 years
he looks as sturdy as the oaks sur
rounding the castle.
There are those who insist that
the Tiger intends to re-enter the
political arena and that in the
peace and quietness Of the little
island which gave birth to Napo-
leon, he has been preparing for a
re-entry into public life that may
be almost as startling as that of
the Little Corporal.

TIMBER IN THE
PHILIPPINES IS
PLENTIFUL;W WOOD
Islands Have Enough to Take
Care of Most of the Lum-
Der Industry in the Far
! East, Survey Shows.

Manila, Sept. 26,--Ihere IS
enough timber in the Philippine
Islands to take care Of most of the
lumber industry of the far east,
according to Maj. Gen. Leonard
Wood, who has just traversed the
archipelago from northern Lu2on
to the Visayan islands.
Few people appreciate the
enormous resources in the Islands
in the way of lumber. much of 1t
of the most valuable kind" he
said. NEARLY 230,000,000 feet of
II was cut in 1920, Of which in the
neighborhood Of 100000 was
exported.
I'm ordinary years there ought
To he an enormous amount aVaila-
Bile for export. Now Is the time to
initiate those wise forestry meas
ures which would insure the re-
placement OF the trees cut These
forests are full Of the most va
liable woods, and there Is a posi-
bilitv of great development in the
production of rubber, camphor,
etc, also an enormous amount OF
other forest and jungle products.
"Lumbermen in the islands
ought to unite so as to have better
marketing of their products
abroad. In other words, here is
a treat industry which can be de-
welcomed on sound lines and repro
duction Of the forest assured"
w. Cameron Forbes, former
governor general of the Philippine
islands, predicted great future
for the lumber industry of the is
lands. He said:
"On the way to the Philippine
islands for the first time in 1904,
i stopped at the forestry exhibit
of the Philippine government at
the st. Louis fair. l was literally
carried off my feet by the beauty
and splendor of the Phlllpplne
woods there displayed. Right then
and there I made up my mind that
It was one of my ambitions to have
certain rooms, in whatever house |
might build in the future, finished
with especially fine panels OF Sc
lected Philippine woods. During
NV ten years stay in the islands, ]
collected a considerable quantity Of
these woods. l took the risk OF
their not standing the American
climate, and sent them home. The
wood has stood wonderfully well
and seems to be as good today as
when first put In and is the ad-
miration of everybody who visits
my house Just outside Of Boston,
am sure that the lumber indus
try Of the philippines has mar
Vicious future"
A. F. Fischer, director Of forest
ry OF the Philippine islands, esti-
mates there are 72,224 square
miles of standing timber In the
Philippines and that on this area
the stand of timber is 100000 0O,-
900 board feet. This timber which
is owned by the government is
estimated to be worth $4O0, 100000.
