SAVE FORESTS Of IDAHO
GREAT ASSET OF STATE
MAJOR FEM EXPLAINS PENDING
BILL AND URGES ITS
PASSAGE.

A bin now before the legislature
provides for systematic protection OF
the forests through the cooperative
efforts of the state OF Idaho. the fed
eral government and the private own
ers of timber. In view of the great
value of the timber in this state and
its constant exposure to danger from
fire it is evident that some effective
steps should be taken by all concern
ed to protect this great state resource.
The best argument in favor of the
passage of the bill now being consid-
cred is the vast stretch of dead tim
Der within the site of this city which
few years ago was a JOY to the eye
and an asset of great value to the
county and state. Perhaps the best
authority on forestry in the state Of
Idaho is Major T. A. Fem. of Koos-
kia. one of the earliest pioneers of
Idaho and for many years connected
with the national forest service. Ma /

of the bin now before the legislature |

OHIO VOTERS DECIDING
BONUS FOR WAR VETS
AND LOCAL OFFICERS
(By Associated Press)

COLUMBUS, O., Nov S.-Ohio elect
ors were going to the polls today to
vote on three proposed amendments to
the state constitution, one of which
would provide a bonus for Ohio veter-
ans of the world war; for municipal of
ficers, for members of county boards
of education, for local tax assessors,
and for numerous local bond issues.
Except in cities where there have
been heated municipal campaigns the
vote was expected to be comparative
ly light because of the light registra-
tion this year.
Among the state issues, chief inter
est appeared to center on the fate of
the soldiers bonus amendment, under
which the state would issue bonds to
the sum of $25,000,0O0 to pay Ohio vet
erans $40 for each month in the serv-
ice, the total not to exceed $3.50.
The other proposed amendments pro-
vide for a return of the poll tax which
was eliminated in Ohio in 1912, and
for a Senatorial redistricting of the
state.
All three amendments were initiated
by the last legislature, the tax amend
ment to provide additional revenue for
the state government and the reds-
tricting amendment to concentrate
Senatorial districts in which the CEN
ters of population have shifted since
1851, when the state was last redis-
tricted

DELAYED kNTI-REER
MEASURE TO Be next
ON SENATE CALENDAR
CBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov 8.-The long
delayed anti-beer bill was scheduled to
be brought before the senate today
under the tacit agreement to give it
right OF way following passage of the
tax bill.
With increased pressure for action
on the measure because of the treas
ury's issuance of regulations for pre-
scribing of medical beer, the bills
managers promised to demand an
early vote. Although they already
have a cloture petition with sufficient
signatures to present it if necessary,
they said today that this course would
not be resorted to unless evident OBJ
struction develops.
The senate fight on the Willis-Camp-
bell measure is to continue over the
conference compromise on the search
and seizure right of prohibition en-
forcement officers. Opponents of The
conference draft claim it would give
officers the right to search persons or
vehicles without a search warrant as
they contend, is required under the
constitution.
The conference report requires only
adoption by the senate to be sent to
the president, having been approved
by the house, before the summer re-
cess of congress.
