SCHOOL LAND F0R FoKEST

II u sxpeetsd thar within the mex,
esw weeks Colorado will get a state
forest Of 3S.soe acres, in exchange
tor isolated sections OF timber land
belonging to the state school fund.
Members Of the state land board
will inspect the tract. and II 1t
oeots the approval Of the board the
fiaal steps for the exchange will be
made.
The acquisition OF the forest will
not cost the state = cent. The state
land board will turn over to the
general land office some forty iso-
lated sections and fractions of sec
tions of timber land belonging to
the state school fund in exchange for
the compact body in Jackson coun-
ty. 1t will be an even exchange,
acre for acre, and the sections to be
exchanged contain virtually the same
amount OF timber As tract which It
l. proposed TO acquire.
When Colorado was admitted to
statehood congress turned over two
sections in each township to the
state for the public school fund.
Many of these sections are located
in inaccessible mountain regions,
many of them in government forest
reserves.
Very little revenue is received by
the school fund from these isolated
sections. While many OF them con-
tain = fine growth Of timber they
are practically valueless to the state
because the timber cannot be gotten
out.
These isolated sections are also
considered . menace BY the forest
service. chiefly because OF the In
ability Of the state to guard them
properly. The state has no funds
with which to employ rangers to
watch them and all Of them are
situated 30 far apart ~ to make 1t
impossible for one guard to watch
more than one section. Practically

Belfast, June 2-After a "a hours

continued in the Millfeld area, and a

Premier Goes on Vacation.

London, June 2.-Announcement
that Prime Minister Lloyd George
will leave London tonight to remain
away a week encourages the belief
that there is some improvement in
the Irish situation. He will go to
Criceieth to participate at war memo
rial exercises tomorrow. The gravity
OF conditions in Ireland is emphasiz-
ed, however, by the summoning OF
the Earl of Cavan, chief of staff, by
the cabinet and the introduction of
the Earl of Balfour into the cabinet
conferences.
Southern forces have been massed
al certain points along listers bor-
aers with the apparent intention of
invading the north. This, together
with the new outbreak of outrages in
Belfast, has caused concern.
Sir James Craig, the Ulster pre-
mler, is understood to have empha-
sized in his interviews with the cabi-
net the magnitude of the Sim Fein
iofces concentrated along the border,
and to have expressed fear for the
safety of Londonderry.
michael Collins, head of the pro-
'lsional Irish free state government,

ment that he is in no wise respon-

Gen. Chang Has Enough
Sense to Quit and Let
Sun Shine
OBx Associated Pressl

Peking, June 2.-Restoration Of
peace in China, torn by civil conflicts
for years, seems nearer than at any
time since the Peking government
first encountered armed opposition.
The whole matter, as viewed in the
light of recent developments, revolv-
ed around DIR. Sun Vat Sen, presi-
dent of the southern or Canton gov
ernment, whose fight, to wrest con-
troll from the Peking government has
been based on the contention that
Hsu Shih Changes occupancy of the
presidential chair was illegal and
that he and his associates were un-
duly subject to Japanese influence.
Developments in the north tend to
minimize the power of General
Chang -Tso-Lin, who has let it be
known he planned to establish an in
dependent government in Manchuria,
as a dlSturblg factor.
Hsu, in response to the pressure
of public opinion, offered his resig-
nation to the cabinet at an extraor-
binary session yesterday as a means,
his letter of resignation said, of aid
ing "any plan to relieve the coun-
try" of its difficulties.
The resignation apparently came
as response to a public sentiment
which has been growing for some
weeks. There has been pressure
in the Chinese newspapers for the
resignation of President Hsu and q
calling together of the old parlia-
ment, dissolved in 1917, to act for the.
unification of China. Recently there
also have been suggestions in i'm
portant quarters that if DR.. Sun
would resign office and lend his sup
port to the move for recalling parlia-
ment, there would be no further oh
stacle to settlement of all the differ
ences between north and south Chi
ma. DIR. Sun up to the present time
has maintained a discreet silence.
However, there are indications that
the same pressure that brought
about Hsu's withdrawal as central
figure in Chinese politics is operat-
ing to remove the southern president.
General Chang Chiun- Ming, the
principal military, power of south
China, few day ago demanded DIR.
Suns resignation and announced
, that he intended to support move
ment to bring about a reassembly OF
the parliament and the restoration to
office of Ii Yuan-Hung, who was
forced from the presidency by the
militarists in 1916. Last Wednesday,
word came from Paotingfu that Gem
eral Chang had aligned Is of the
more powerful Tuchuns, or military
dictators of provinces, with him.
This accession of strength to those
opposing him is believed likely to
prove powerful factor in influene-
ling DIR. Suns decision. In addition.
Sun has contended steadily that his
ambition was not a personal one, bat
that China be restored to unity and

OMM|T.TfES APPOINTED
Those in Charge of Ar
rangements Getting
Busy

Plans for the assembling here OF
June 13 of the Florida Capital Re
jmoval Association are going forward
and committee heads to make ar
arrangements have been named by Pres
ident Merriam of the Chamber Of
Commerce. The committee chairmer
named are:
Motor service-F. C. Cochrane.
Convention headquarters IN. A
Stumpe.
Lunch service-J. w. Hart.

Details of the program will be wor-
ked out at meeting of the committee
Tuesday afternoon at $3.50 o'clock at
the Chamber of Commerce. The del

of directors, with one representative
from each interested county, will hold
a session during the morning and pre-
pare its course of action to be rec
commended to the general convention
when it assemblies in the afternoon at

The principle work before the asso-
citation now is to urge upon the cleo
torate the ratification of the reappor-
tionment amendment to the state con-
stitution. This will be voted on in
November. 1t will also be the pur-
pose of the association to have local
organizations in each county pledge
their senators and representatives to
vote and work for the amendment pro-
posing capital removal when it comes
up.
Secretary Hart is in st. Petersburg
today and tomorrow and will bring
the matter of capital removal up be-
fore the Association of Florida Com
mercial Secretaries, which is meeting
there. II is expected that the Asso-
citation will give its unqualified en-
dorsement to he proposal for capital
removal.
President George w. Wilder, of the
Capital Removal Association, is CIV
ing his full time to the details of or
ganization, and Secretary Hart, rep
resenting the Palatka Chamber of
Commerce, has issued urgent invita-
tions to all counties to send as large
delegations as possible to the conven-
tion here.

circumstances that have involved
Walter S. Ward, of New Rochelle,

ney Weeks.
Cunningham, after three-hour
conversation with the Westchester

arrested as a material witness. He
stated the wan wounded by Ward in
the battle following attempted black
mail had been taken to his mothers
home, and that the man told him

fore it occurred.
Detectives are searching for the
wounded man, whose name, as well
as his probable hiding place, was re-
vealed by Cunningham, according to
the authorities.
Details of the information West
chester county authorities were able
to force from Cunningham have been
withheld by Mr.. Weeks and the sher-
iff. Outside of the brief statement
of the arrest and the fact that Cum
ningham had told the wounded mans
name, the only comment by Mr..
Weeks was that Cunningham, HIM
self, had not been at the scene of the
shooting. according to his story.
