GROW NEW FORESTS
Plan Laws to PeTpetuate Tim.
Der In Idaho.


Boise, Dec. a Fifteen lumber
men and officials met at the
Owyhee hotel this morning to hear
the report Of subcommittee ap-
pointed to draft amendments to
the present state forestry laws to
be presented at the next session of
the state Legislature. Dean F. G..
Miller of the school of forestry of
the University of Idaho, is chair
man of the general committee.
1t is the plan of the committee
to present amendments which will
conserve the present state forest
lands and which will be something
similar to the laws now existing in
connection with the United States
national forests. These amend
ments will be such that timber will
be grown on lands now devoted to
that purpose in years to come, said
the chairman.

John Montgomery, who re-

N. ID. Wernette, his attorney
asked the court in pronouncing
sentence, if the court would
place Mr.. Montgomery in Jail at
st. Maries if a Jail sentence were
imposed in order that the coD>
victed man would be near hiS
ranch, and would be able to
keep in touch with it. Judge
DIETRICH said that he could not
give an answer until he had in
vestigated further, that it had
come to his knowledge that
liquor violators in many cases
were granted too many privi-
leges and that he might be nee
essary for punishment to be in
flicted on such officers if this
prove to be the case.
Mr.. Wernette stated that he
did not have such thing in
mind when he made the request
that the prisoner be confined
to that Jail, and the judge said
that he did not have the ST.
Maries jail in mind, either, but
that he would look up the treat
ment prisoners were receiving
before placing them in any coun-
ty Jail.

AID SMALL FARMER
Administration Plans Extension
Of Credits.

The new administration pro-
gram for immediate financial re-
lief to farmers was formulated
and practically perfected Thurs
day, Nov. 80, at a conference be-
tween President Harding, Sec
retary Wallace and II Republi-
can senator's, headed by Senator
Watson of Indiana, according
to an associated press dispatch.
1t will be put before congress at
once and pressed with the full
force of the administration.
Broadly, the plans bring to-
gether in one administration
measure the approved portions
of various relief measures al
ready pending in congress, and
contain also provisions to make
the intended relief available to
the small farmer as well as to
the large cattle raisers and
grain growers.
The conference was arranged
by Senator Watson, who has
been making an active survey
of the question of relief. 1t was
preceded by a series OF confer
ences between Secretary Wal
lace and department of agricul-
ture experts. Thursday Presi-
dent Harding kept his Thanks
giving dinner waiting while he
heard the perfected program
outlined and gave his general
approval.
The plan proposes to utilize
the federal farm loan board as
the agency through which relief
is to be given. The details OF
the financing have been practl-
cally worked out. The general
purpose is larger and more liber-
al credits and cheaper interest
rates. The opinion of those par
ticipating in the conference was
that while the war finance cor
poration had been of great value
in alleviating the distressed con-
dition of agriculture, it's loans,
because of certain limitations,
did not reach down to the aver
age small farmer, who raises
few cattle or has small quaD-
titles of grain to market. BY
using the federal farm loan
board as the agency to carry
out the plan of financing, the
administration plans propose to
make the government relief
available directly to the small
farmers who need it.
The whole subject of farm re-
lief work was discussed exhaus-
lively, but the marketing prob
lem was touched upon only IN a
general way. The general opin-
ion at the conference was that
to extend the program now TO
include so complex and much
controverted a subject as CO.
operative marketing would only
serve to delay the immediate OBJ
ject of relief. The president
was told that the pressing need
was to. provide at once finaD-
.cial aid to thousands of farmers
who face mortgage foreclosures
because they are unable TO DIS
pose of their cattle and crops
without tremendous losses.
All the senators present gave
their approval to the program
and pledged their support 1ol
it's immediate consideration II

FOUND STOLEN GOODS
Jay Wright Alleged Robber Of
Rathdrum Stores.

The arrest and confession Of Jay
Wright of Hayden Lake and the
recovery of the greater part of the
stolen goods, clears up the mystery
of the recent burglaries of four
Rathdrum business houses and of
the Noble store at Newport, Wash.
Ernest Reiniger, H.G Reiniger,
]. Biemond and Stewart Skinner
went to Ceur d'Alene last Satur-
day forenoon at the request OF
Sheriff Quarles and identified
much of their property which had
been found the evening before at
Wright's shack near Hayden Lake
after a search made by Sheriff
Everett of Pend Oreille county,
Wash, and Deputy Julius John
son of Kootenai county. Wright
was arrested last Friday evening
following the search Of his premis-
es.
The goods taken from Reiniger's
Grocery, being food supplies, were
found to have been largely con
sumo d, although considerable
quantity was recovered. Most Of
the goods taken from the hardware
store were found intact, only one
or two of the guns and few other
acticles not being located. Practi-
cally all the ammunition, cutlery,
silverware, ETC., were recovered
together with some goods that
they did not know had been taken.
Mr. Biemond RECEIVERS most OF the
supplies taken from his butcher
shop, with exception of the two
quarters of fresh meat. A line was
also obtained on the Whereabouts
OF all but two of the eight tires
stolen from SINNERS garage.
The report from Ceur d'Alene
states that the Pend Oreille sheriff
got a clue to the location OF the
goods from people to whom
Wright had sold clothing in Hill
yard. twenty-five suits Of clothes
from the Newport store were found
at Wright's cabin and, according
to the officers, quantity OF
merchandise from the same store
was located in the basement OF
Mrs. BERTHE D. O'Reilly, sister
of Wright who lives near Minneha-
ha park in Spokane.
Wright was arraigned at 400
O'Clock Saturday afternoon on the
charge OF burglary in the first
degree. He waived preliminary
hearing and was held to answer to
the district court on bond OF
$4,000.
The officers stated that in his
confession, Wright claimed be had
no accomplices in the. robberies,
and that his brother, Gordon and
wife, who have house adjoining
his, knew nothing OF the thefts.
lay Wright is the eldest son OF
the late M. u. Wright, a well
known merchant and contractor o'
+, Kootenai county IS or 80 years
ago. Jay had not lived in Coeur
d'Alene since he left there several
years ago for California. and Is
said to have returned TO this state
about Two months ago.
