Cided upon by the British delegates

proposals whereby France would con-
sent to a moratorium for Germany a
deadlock seems To have been reaches
which, in the opinion Of observers,
will only permit the winding up of the

IN 10 years our nations forests

warning issued by the Greensboro,
\. Y, Chamber of Commerce after a
survey Of the national forest problem
1t was found that fifty industries in
the State use wood as their chief raw
material. The survey noted the need
of the immediate education of indus

substitutes for wood.

of this waste, and in two ways: one,
by decreasing the use of wood; two,
by making it more difficult for fire

been of amazing growth in the last
