BRITAIN MUST BE
 SAVED BY SCIENCE
So Says Committee Ap- pointed to Investigate N a t ion' $ Industrial Future.
By DAVID Nj. CHURCH, International News Service Stan Cor
 reSDOndeUt

London, Oct 20 - Great Britain oan only have it's future through sci ence.
 This conclusion has been reached by the Committee of the Privy Council for Scientific and Industrial Research.
 The committee, after a prolonged ! investigation on behalf of the Privy : Council has issued a report which can not bring any great joy to the capital ists, but it holds some satisfaction for the 1aborites. for it contends that in dustria1 salvation is not to be found in the lowering of wages.
 Greater efficiency in the British in dustrial world is the only salvation for Great Britain, the committee holds. and it is of the opinion that this efficiency can only be secured advance of competing countries.
 <. -It is well recognized,' says tho committee's report, that for four fifths of their food, and for a great manufactured materials for industry, the people of these islands are de- pendent on supplies from overseas.
 These supplies can only be ob- eained if this country is able to carry on it's exporting industries in the flu tt!re with greater efficiency than the Tt is doubtful whether we can compete, either by lowering wages beyond the limits of our competitors Or by securing a much greater human effort than they
 -'If these two avenues are closed NcompctitIon, in the end, is confined to greater efficiency resulting from scientific work.
 eve consider that scientific and in dustrial research is an essential fac tor in the national effort on which the continued maintenance of our present population depends"
 The report is interesting at this time, when there is & decided move nent on the part of the Government to foster emigration to tho colonies ment problem.
 r~ England is undoubtedly overpopu- lated and her export trade cannot keep the present population in a. pros perouS condition unless there are ..dwraStfc Improvements in meth odS of Industrial production.
 The English export trade has not yet begun to assume pre-war propor- .tions. but 1t is gradually getting on more even keel. Imports for the first eight months of the present year amounted to approximately SS.0OO,- -000, 900, as compared with $3,500,- ao0, 900 for the same period last year, while exports for the first eight months of this year were approxi- amtely lS2.500, 900. 900. as compared with S5.100,oo0, 900 a year ago. The imports of foodstuffs and raw mate rials show a decrease, while there is an increased eSportation of the same commodities. The reverse of this condition is true with regard to Manufactured articles.

There have been rumors and re- ports of this or that legation sud- denly trebling or quadrupling it's ship ments of liquors. much to the dismay of the department.
 The department has been faced with a delicate and perpexing prob lem. It has desired to comply with the spirit of the Volstead edict so far as is possible. but at the same time, even though morally convinced that diplomatic liquor was finding its way into undiplomatic channels, it has hesitated to approach a Foreign Min ister about a matter so entirely per- sonal as the amount of liquor his es- t2bliShment may consume.

Unique Plea for
Pardon from a Jew

Morris venick Of Portland Thurs
day filed an unique plea for a pardon
at the Department of State. Venick
was convicted in the superior court
for Cumberland county of the illegal
manufacture of intoxicating liquor,
at the last January term. and was
sentenced to serve two months in
Jail and to pay a fine Of $1,000 and
costs and in default of payment to
serve one month additional in Jail.
In his petition for a pardon Venick
scys that he is a Hebrew and pro-
fesses the Hebrew faith, that the
liquor which he manufactured was
for use during the coming Hebrew
holy season, that he Is unable to pro-
cure in any way the $1,000 necessary
to pay his fine and at the expiration
OF the sentence Of two months he
will be obliged to serve the additional
month in lieu of payment OF the fine;
and that if he is compelled to serve
an additional month Imprisonment
that will necessitate his remaining in
Jail through the Paschal season and
the time of the Passover.
Nenick further states in his petition
that in view of the circumstances I'M
der which the crime was committed
and the length Of time which the Pc
titioner has already served he feels
sure that he has been sufficiently
punished: that in view of the relig-
ious convictions of his people, their
beliefs and traditions. it will be
severe misfortune to him il he can
not observe the Passover; and that

down on the 18th day Of April, 1922,

Maine Bird Day
FRIDAY. April ID

Governor Baxter has made procla-
nation announcing Friday. April IA,
as the day and date for tho annual
Bird day in the state Of Maine, as
follows:
Nature has blessed Maine with
great variety of bird life. 1t is we'll
for our people, both adults and chill
dren, to appreciate the value of our
feathered neighbors and to recognize
their important relationship to the
common welfare.
1t is now understood that birds are
essential to the protection of crops,
that they add materially to the
wealth Of the state by destroying OBJ
noxious insects, and are of great i'm.
portance to our agricultural interests.
The study Of birds and OF their
habits affords pleasure and recreation
to those who indulge in it, and is a
subject deserving Of more general at
tention.
Our birds should be protected and
preserved and this can be accom-
plished by instiling a love Of them
in the minds of the children of the
state.
Now therefore, in order that our
people and especially our children
may cooperate in the work Of saw
ing the birds, I, Percival P. Baxter.
Governor of the State Of Maine, do
hereby designate and appoint
FRIDAY, APRIL 14th, 1922
) BIRD DAY in the State Of Maine
| and I urge the people of Maine, and
particularly the teachers in our pub
lie schools, to observe the day with
appropriate exercises.

duty to enforce them as long as they
were on the statute books, and that
thing l propose to do up to the very
limit.
"The time has come for an imme-

these matters by everyone who prof
it's by having a moving picture ma

not to be regarded as parallel with
safety.
From now on, I shall expect the

to their being properly licensed, Sec
ond, as to the other requirements re-
garding the machine and maker,

cations of the operator, fourth, as to

last, but not least, as to fire escapes

Genera! William H. Fisher Of Au-
gusta:
I'VE have given careful considera.
ton to the questions submitted in
connection with the island in Jimies
pond in Farmingdale and conclude that
10 general rule can be given which will
apply to all islands situated in the
great ponds of this State but that in
each case the ownership of any island
must be determined by the records and
facts as to occupancy, etc, of that
particular island.
I'VE do not think, however, thst the
State has such an ownership in the
great ponds a to give to it, from the
mere fact of their location, a title to
the islands in such bonds In other
words while the people Of the State
have certain rights in the great ponds.
such as the right Of fishing and fowl
ing, these rights do not carry with
them the ownership of the islands as
part of the ponds.
You ask two specific questions, the
first of which is: Does the State now
have title to all islands located in
great ponds within the State except
such as have been specifically granted
away by the State?' In answer to
which we would say that the state has
no title to any islands unless it has
acquired the same by purchase, grant
or some other legal way. and secondly,
the ownership of any particular island
is to be determined the same as any
other piece of real estate. by records
and other evidences of ownership.
In the case of Jimies pond islands,
we have no doubt it was part Of the
territory included in the kennebec
Purchase and probably the title to the
lot of which it was Z part could be
traced down through the records. So
far as We are aware the State has
never owned any part Of what is now
the town OF Farmingdale and II such
is the fact would. OF course, have no
interest in this island"
Commissioner Dana acquainted Sc
lectman Horn of the attorney generals
opinion and suggested that the owner
ship, If ever transferred. could be
traced through the registry of deeds:
il none was found the title would now
rest in their heirs. The fact that the |
island had never been taxed or
claimed. would not give either town or |
State title to it.
He also suggested that Farmingdale /
can either continue the practice OF not |
taxing the island or tax the island to i
owners unknown and If such owners I
fail to appear, sell the island for taxes.
So, you see. the lone island in J;mies
uond is indeed, naneless HELPLESS
orphan. not even State ward and
must stay so unless Farmingdale
comes to its rescue.
