LAUDS SIMPLICITY
OF CONSTITUTION
Henry {. Davis Discusses In
Strument Before Wash
ington Study.

THE Constitution of the United
States in the last analysis is one OF
the simplest and clearest instruments
conceivable" Henry E. Davis, a local
attorney, declared in an address be-
fore the Washington Study at the
Highland apartments yesterday.
In it's origin the Constitution of
the United States is the framework
of national government with strong
coercive powers, formulated by the
political. social and financial leaders
of the time, under the influence of
great fear. for the purpose of pro-
tecting themselves and their prop
erty," Mr.. Davis said. Instead of
being complex or confused. it's allot-
ment of powers to the mutually eX-
elusive Legislative, executive and ju-
be understood by child: its division
OF Legislative authority between two
houses, the one directly and the othe-
indirectly from the people, the for
mer biennially changeable and the
latter in the majority number of its
m m ners continuous. is as clear as
1T is pre-eminently prudent. It's pro-
hlhltlonS upon the federal govern
ment and the states respectively are
pain and precise. It's provisions for
the national revenues and the ma
lonal defense are equally So
Rcads Ratification Articles.
The speaker read the articles OF
ratification pertaining to the Consti-
tuition and laws governing changes
which might be made in the docu-
ment by amendments
touching upon the duties of the
President. he said: The powers OF
the President are greater than those
OF any other government head in any
other country in the world
Quoting the English historian
John Richard Green, in his estimate
or George Washington as "the great
est of good men and the best of great
men" he told of the part that the
father of his country" and other
great men of colonial days had tc
play in establishing laws and tradi-
tions which are to last through gen.
erations
Commenting upon the constitutional
convention in Philadelphia, he told
how remarkable it was that the hap
penings of the convention were kept
secret as well as they were. This Sc
crecy was maintained. he explained
in spite of the fact that many phases
of questions which Were decide ed
there had been discussed and threshed
out on street corners and in the va
rious coffee houses of Philadelphia.
In conclusion the speaker pointed
out that it was the thought of the
trainers of the Constitution to place
the responsibility of the government
with the sober second thought of the
people rather than to have a govern
ment which could be swayed by the
hysterical thought of the moment.

BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

Disapproval by the United States of
South American Mussolinis and Ri
veras and of revolutions organized to
establish such dictators has lust been
indicated in an arbitral decision by
Chief Justice Taft. The arbitration
concerned certain claims of British
interests against the government of
Costa Rica
The decision discloses a fascinating
story of Central American intrigue,
accompanied by revolution, firing
upon the American consulate, loot of
whole country and an attempt to
tie up it's natural resources. The Taft
decision, which was in favor of Costa
Rica, caused wild jubilation in that
state. Military bands played the ma

Tinoco Immediately proceeded to
consolidate his power. Those whom
he feared were either jailed or es-
capped from the country. Unlike his
predecessor, he made his brother min

camouflage the tyranny he had estab-

OUR VANISHING FORESTS

Americans are using up their tim

ply has been cut down. So warns
Colonel Henry Scion Graves, head of
the Yale Forest school.
The Senate Committee on Forestry
has been holding sessions in the west
ern numbering states devoted to
taking testimony of experts on the
question of reforestation.
Senator C. L. McNary of Oregon,
chairman of the committee, brought
out the fact that the Federal Forestry
Department alone was capable of
dealing with national reforestation.
The facts developed show that it is
clearly a national problem, the timber
supply being a national need and the
entire United States being engaged
in literally destroying the existing
forests.
The states containing the largest
acreage of logged-off lands have been
impoverished by removal of the for
ests and are least able to carry on
large r~eforestation projects.
The private owner of timber lands
cannot be compelled to replant devas-
tated areas. So there is nothing left
but for Uncle Sa INTO do it.

Lowell High School
Dismissed to get
Beet Crop Harvested

Feeling that an emergency had
arisen, caused by the continual rain,
which would justify their action, the
school board, yesterday morning in
special session passed a resolution
which will close the high school dur
ing the next week, or possibly two
weeks for the purpose of allowing the
older members of the school to go
into the beet fields and assist in har-
vesting that crop, says last weeks
issue of the Lowell Chronicle.
This action was the result of a con-
ference with a number of beet grow
ing farmers, Mr.. Johnson, manager of
the local factory, and a number of the
business men.
By reason of the continual rains
this fall, Mr.. Johnson reports that
only about IA per cent of the crop is
harvested at this time as compared
with approximately 40 per cent in
other years. 1t is generally under
stood that the first of November is
the close of the digging season in or
binary years, and that being the case,
there are less than 20 days yet re-
naming in which to get the beets out
of the ground.

BIG BODIES OF DAZZLING White
MARBLE FOUND ON CRANDALL CREEK
BY RANGERS EXPLORING HEADWATERS

There are some wonderfully fine
marble deposits well up toward the
bead of Crandall creek, says Mr.. j.
N. Langworthy, who has just returned
from a trip into that country with F.
e. McGrew. Mr.. Langworthy is field
man for the local forestry service and
Mr.. McGrew is the ranger at the

Mr.. Langworthy states that there
are great bodies of it, dazzling white,
except for some blue veins running
through it. 1t looks, he says, like the
marble that was ono the fashion for
dresser tops and center tables, and
pea to be of equally good quality
as that used for those purposes.
At one place they found a ten-foot
tunnel, which indicates that someone
had once considered it of value.
Transportation, however, would prove
a serious obstacle no matter how great
the marbles value.
Messrs. Langworthy and McGrew
made the exploring trip to determine
whether or not it would be possible
to build a trail into the country. 1t is
