Congress to Get
Forestry Measure

Legislation to solve the problem OF
Americas vanishing forests will be
pushed through the senate soon after
It reconvenes on January 3, under the
plan of Senator G. I. McNary (rep.,
Ore.), chairman of the select commit
tee on reforestation. A bill proposing
to enact the committees principal re-
commentators into law has already
been drafted.
In general, the measure proposes to
follow the lines of the formula keep
the fires out and the taxes down. 1t
carries appropriations aggregating
about $1,000, 900 for various features
OF. federal aid to the states. This
amount is somewhat small when COM
pared with some suggestions, but it
is in complete accord with the views
of Colonel Greeley, chief forester of
the United States. In view of the
policy of rigid economy and the de-
mand for tax reduction, it is doubtful
whether larger appropriations would
receive the sanction of congress.
The bill authorizes the secretary Of
agriculture to recommend, in cooper
alton with state officials, a system of
forest fire protection When he is
satisfied that the states are cooper

College students find it does not pay
to educate themselves to become
teachers. To secure teachers DIP
Iona means arduous and specialized
work, having finished which the stu
dent can claim salary considerably
lower than the annual wage of a
bricklayer. Even after ten years OF
teaching, his reward is likely to be
less than half that of the student
who chose a business or to become
physician or lawyer. Yet in theory
the teacher ranks with the physician
in value to the community.
There is only one way in which the
future supply of teachers can be pro-
vided and safeguarded, and that is
by raising salaries. Country districts
and small towns in particular must
come to a realization of the fact that
good teaching is not luxury which
perhaps cannot be afforded, but a
necessity. The state primary school
law already relieves the rural and
small town taxpayer to consider
able extent in providing teachers sal
aries. 1t is niggardly and costly
policy which fails to furnish the mon
ey for good teaching.

sperity in it's best sense. A surplus
in the Federal treasury hnmauar

sperity in it's best sense. A Surplus"
in the Federal treasury, however,
signifies one thing and one thing
only; it simply means that the people
have been over-taxed. The govern
ment is not engaged in business for
the purpose of gain. It's function is
the collection Of certain sums to pay
the necessary expenses of certain pub
lie services. The ideal budget" is
the one that balances" For the last
two years the treasury department
has closed it's books with a balance
on the credit side of more than $780,
100000 This means that the people
were daily paying almost $1,000,000
into the government Golfers for which
the government had no legitimate use
1t meant, in other words, that the
people were being overtaxed to just
that extent. Just what shall we, do
about this surplus? This is the poll
tical question of the hour.

A Church Grievance.

The New Republic: Recently the
Pittsburgh conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church appointed q
commission to consider some of the
most urgent social and political pro-
blems. The commission presented q
report which was adopted at a recent
session of the conference. The report
indorsed the substitution of law for
war, the world court, the preservation
intact of civil liberty and the social
ed social creed of the churches" But
its most remarkable passage which
deserves the widest possible publicity
runs as follows:
~ We view with apprehension the
conditions which exist in some OF
the mining and industrial towns
of our state as illustrated by the
inability of our Methodist church
to secure a clear and uncondition-
ed title to site for the erection
of a church building. The only
available lease prohibits the use
of the church building for any
purpose not strictly religious and
is subject to cancellation with-the
allowance of ninety days for the
removal of the building. One OF
our pastors has been forced out
of the field simply for having ex-
pressed, himself as believing In
the cause of the employees and
another is threatened with ejec-
ton for the same reason. This
arbitrary position of the COM
panies has resulted in closing
towns to the preaching of the
Gospel and is a serious evil to all
who believe in the fundamentals
of free government.

The Question
of the Hour.

Worlds Work: Those who are seek
ing an historical parallel for the pre-
sent status of the Coolidge administra-
ton can find it in the problem that
confronted President Cleveland in the
closing year of his first term. The
outstanding fact in the national econ
omy then, as now, was the existence
of surplus" This word is a little
unfortunate in its application to the
Federal treasury. In ordinary bust
ness life surplus" is the sign of
Astounding health. What it's exis-
tence means is that, after paying ex-
penses, interest, dividends, and other
charges, the business still has left a
certain sum which can be laid aside
as nest egg for the strengthening
of the general concern. This is pro-

Good Teachers
Are Scarce.

Detroit News: Twelve hundred ap-
plications to the University of Mich
igan for teachers. 800 would-be teach
ers to take the jobs. This means 9
crisis in the educational system o.
Michigan.
The policy Of paying teachers wag-
es out of all comparison with salari-
es that can be obtained in other lines
of endeavor is bearing fruit. The
supply of teachers is drying up; quail
tication standards are being lowered
classes are being enlarged; and in tne
long run the commonwealth of Mich.
igan will pay the penalty by having
poorly-educated citizenry.

Winter.

The day had been calm and sunny
day,
And tinged with amber was the sky
at even;
The fleecy clouds at length had roll
ed away,
And lay in burrows on the eastern
heaven;
The moon arose and shed a glimmer-
ing ray,
And round her orb a misty circle Law.
The hoar-frost glittered on the naked
Heath,
The roar of distant winds was loud
and deep,
The dry leaves rustled in each pass
ing breath,
And the gay world was lost in quiet
sleep,
Such was the time when, on the land
scape brown,
Through December air the snow
came down.
The morning came, the dreary morn
at last,
And showed the whitened waste.
The shivering herd
Lowed on the hoary meadow-ground,
and fast
Fell the light flakes upon the earth
unstirred.
The forest frs with glittering SHOWS
o'erlaid
Stood like boar priests in robes of
white arrayed.
