GAME CENSUS

Denver. Jan. 10. I92l-The annual
game census for the fifteen National
Forests Of the state indicates that
greater protection is necessary, and
deer are far fewer than in some Of
the smaller eastern states. An ac-
curate count is impossible; but since
the work Of the forest rangers re-
quire that they spend much of their
time in the regions occupied by the
aid animals, a fair estimate is pos
sible.
Several years ago elk were brought
IN by the Forest Service in conjunc-
ton with the Biological Survey, and
with the help of local organizations
and distributed to areas where only
small bands were in existence and 10
localities where many years ago they
we're abundant but had been entirely
cNterminated. These bands have in
creased until now the count shows
500 animals. The number on each
Forest varies from ten on the Lead
vile and Uncompahgre Forests TO
1925 within the White River Forest.
The number of black-tailed or mule
deer is 2i,7s0 and OF the white-tailed
y. These latter all within the San
Isabel Forest. There are still a num-
bcT Of antelope on the eastern plains
and one lone one in North Park, but
there are but 30 of which the Fores;
Service has record, these being entire
ly within the Pike Forest.
Mountain sheep now number 6720
black bear, 2690 and silver tip bear
35. Beaver are decidedly on the in
J crease.

SOME VIEWS ON REASON
FOR PRESENT CRIME WAVE

A reporter for n city newspaper
was commissioned to ask n number of
people-not prominent" people, but
just plain 'folks"-for their views
on the alleged crime wave which is
sweeping the country. The answers
are interesting as a symposium of
popular thought on serious problem.
The first man laid it to largely
prohibition" Another said it was
"the natural aftermath of the war.
A third laid il 10 "the present sudden
unemployment of so many men" eX-
planning that at has undoubtedly caus-
ed much privation and privation often
leads to the commission of crime" A
disgusted citizen answered: TOO many
fool laws and too many fool reform
ers. No wonder the Liberty bell is
cracked and the Plymouth Rock split
in two" A fifth citizen who evidently
had given the subject more than pas
sing consideration explained his theo-

hility of maiming and killing his fel-
low beings into the average unintelli-
gent man as we did during the war,

GOVERNOR ALLEN HANDS HOT
ONE TO NONPARTISANS
Declares To~nley and His Clique
Were Hun Emissaries During the
War and Should be Ousted From
Kansas

Topeka, Kansas, Jan. l0-Assailing
the campaign being made in Kansas
by A. c. Towhley and Non Partisan
League organizers from North Dakota
Governor Allen, in a statement issued
last week approved the steps taken
by former service men to oppose the
campaign.
Townley has been able to present
to North Dakota lot of dreams which
seemed real,' said the statement. The
Non, n,Partisan League has lost control
of the state government The weak
ness and cost of his scheme have final
ly been exposed and Townley is hunt
ing new friends.
"Townley and his tribe opposed ap-
preparations for the war supplies and
war materials upon which the very
life of the American Legion boys de-
pended at that hour. In the early
period of the war their attitude dis
couraged voluntary enlistment, dis
couraged the selective service law and
tended to prevent the government
from meeting all its obligations. Lack
ing the courage to go to war for Ger
many, they became in effect German
emissaries in the rear.
"The former service men are op-
posing Townleyism with orderly prop
aganda, and SO long as they express
their opposition to Townleyism with
the brave restraint which they now ex-
hibit, the state will have every reason
to be grateful"

of high prices, must also take the
medicine. As matter Of fact the
farmer was never in history better
conditioned to stand slump than
on this occasion. He has had FIVE
years Of plentiful harvests and high
prices. Most OF the agricultural pro
ducers have taken the opportunity TO
get out OF debt and put money in the
bank. This is the reason why ere
mcndous stocks Of potatoes, grain,
cotton and general farm products are
being held out of the market-still in
the farmers grainarics. The farmer
is not forced 10 liquidate because he
has money ahead, and this of itself
will tend TO stabilize prices and carry

The editor of the Moab, Utah paper
states that if the plans Of the Southern
California Edison company are prose-

dicaes, this beautiful little city will be
under several hundred feet of water.

emulate the example of Father Noah
without delay if the Edison people
show any signs of getting down to
brass tacks. The proposed erection of
dam a thousand feet high at the
point stated by the promoters, would
back the Grand river up to the mouth

Lawrence Collection of Low
estoft Ware an Interest
ing Feature To Be Seen at
American Art Galleries
BY Royal Cortissoz

Mr.. Amos A. Lawrence, OF Boston,
has sent two collections to the Ameri-
can Art Galleries, to be sold through
five afternoon sessions, beginning on
March 20. One is composed of the
furniture and miscellaneous objects of
art which he has accumulated as a
dealer at his Chestnut Street estab-
lishment. The other is the outcome of
his cultivation Of a private hobby, =
hobby for Chinese Lowestoft, Both
collections are interesting, but the
second is Of rather more piquant sig
nificance than the first.
English Lowestoft Is familiar to ANA
teurs Of porcelain. This stuff of Mr..
Lawrence's is not 80 generally known,
nor does every amateur, recognize it
when he sees it as the product of
Oriental craftsmanship. made in Chi
nese factories for the Western market.
Mr.. Horace Townsend, in brief pref
ace to this section Of the Lawrence
catalogue, notes how the manufacturers
IN China employed drawings received
from England. 1t is a curious case of
collaboration between two schools, of
the fusion Of two traditions. 1t seems
sometimes almost incredible that the
Chinese could have SO completely sub
ordinated their national habit of de-
sign, preserving all their wonted skill
but placing it unreservedly at the serv-
ice of alien formulas. No awkwardnes 8
crops out. The ideas of the West are
handled as decisively as though the
potters had been born to. them.
1t might even be asserted that they
were more successful with this ware
when they imported the motifs for it
than they were when they were faith-
ful to their own style. There are dis
tinctly Chinese piecee here. like the
garniture Of Eve vases (No. 584), In
which the exploitation Of native decora-
tive subjects is altogether charming;
yet the key is hardly that of Chinese
decorated porcelain at its best.
Look, on the other hand, at the
pieces rejecting the customary lines
and patterns of English practice and
the work takes on a new interest. Tke
dinner service of armorial porcelain
(No. 8O6) is a good illustration. The

yesterday. 1t was reported that the

being starred.

teenth century London. 1t Is simple
