E. LESTER JONES

President Harding in selecting Col. +. Lester Jones to be director of the coast and geodetic survey rendered splendid service to the United States and particularly to Alaska The president incidentally considered more than party when he named Col Jones also, for the distinguished head of the important coast and geodetic survey halls from Virginia and while not active in politics is a Democrat.
 Col. Jones probably has as great a knowledge of Alaska as anyone in the government service. He is in- terested in Alaska, wants to do all he can for it's development and is willing to go to considerable lengths tory. At Washington he is in a for tunate position, having, through his years of experience, come in close contact with the members of the sen ate and house, and being on intimate terms with several hundred of them. Thereby he will be able to do much for the northland.
 Alaska is fortunate in having him hOnored by President Harding for the people of the territory may rest as- sured, and all who know the colonel are confident, that his activities are not to be confined to his own bureau alone. There will be few matters up in Washington pertaining to Alaska in which Col Jones will not take active interest. Although his do- main covers the whole of the United States, his particular interest lies in Alaska.
 May President Harding in all his selections show the same keenness as he did in selecting the director of the coast and geodetic survey.

 There is a program that looks for ward, and in a practical way. It is not afraid to spend money--but all the expenditures proposed are small enough in comparison with the bill lions to be saved to posterity, and even to ourselves before posterity puts in appearance. It would get at the very base of forest waste. It would be one of the best forms of in surance that Uncle Sam could take out. Let us hope that cheese-parers in congress will not balk at the pay ment of tha premium.

LET US SAVE OUR FORESTS

Ou the general proposition that the forests of the United States, once considered inexhaustible in our form CT care-free style, but now known to be threatened with extinction unless we change our ways, Should be pro- teeted there is no very strong dis pute. We have learned something in the past 50 years. We see that Dame Nature, though prodigal with her primitive gifts, will not permit men to slaughter them away and still have them. So we have turned to the law.making powers of the land to help us in the matter of for ests. They have done much, but there is still more to do. ~.
 We are now straight up against the necessity of having some compre- hensive national forestry program if we would provide a continuous SUD- ply of timber for the people and of material for one of the public's prime necessities, the newspaper In this crusade appears vigorously and with keen foresight the American Fores- try Association. The fact that it stands sponsor for the Shell forest preservation bill, introduced into con- gross last December argues well for the bill, which was prepared with great care by a group of users of timber, as we'll as the chairman of the committee on national forest re- sources of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, and with the assistance and under the advice of National Forester William B. Gree ley. Briefly it sets out to do these things:
 Provide forest protection and re. newal in cooperation with states and other agencies, but with federal expenditures for this purpose not to exceed expenditures by the co-operat- ing state.

The reappointment and prompt con- firmation of Col. E. Lester Jones as director of the coast and geodetic survey is pleasant news to Alaskans. Col Jones is one of the best friends Alaska has in Washington, and he is one of the best informed on Alaskan matters. He has spent two summers in Alaska, and last summer when he was here he said it would be his pur- pose to visit the territory each year while he is at the head of the coast and geodetic survey It is good to be assured that we shali have his services for another four years in his present very important capacity. - Juneau Empire.
