resources Of the state win go the way of similar resources in other states formerly noted as lumber producing centers. We are cutting down our available supply Of tim- Der with a ruthless hand. yet there seems no way to avoid doing so considering the demand and the needs. The last great stand, Of timber is in the state of Washing ton, and when that is gone impor- tations will be increased enormous ly. There is still plenty Of lumber on the earth, but not in this coun- try. When 1t is realized that one sixth of our entire supply is in that one state 1t can be estimated that the stands" in any of the other 47 states are slight in comparison,
 The government. however, has enormous timber lands in the far west but these lands will go un- touched by the woodsman's axe, if the present conservation policy is not changed. To retain this timber is deemed necessary in order 10 prevent floods throughout large areas. Nothing aids the possibility Of suffering by floods so much as denuded plains or mountain sides Treeless states also are subject 10 severe storms, such a harass the far-west prarie state.
 The government conserves its timberlands much more efficiently than the lumber interests ever at- tempted 10 do. When for any rra- son trees are lost on the extensive government reservations new ones are planted, something which a luulbtE NOiliphllN uSballS NN"o'l think it necessary 10 do As mat ter of fact. regard for the planting of trees as well as cutting them down would have made it possible for the lumber industry 10 survive in many states where it formerly thrived. For instance, the lumber industry in Michigan once produced many millionaries but it isn't pro- ducing any today because there IS no lumber of consequence left. The same experience is likely to con- front Washington in the course Of a few decades.
 A great supply Of lumber is avail able in Canada, but there arc stringent laws in force and more are contemplated looking toward better conservation, even on private stands" than in the past.

JUDGE IS HIS HEIR
Rory O'Connor Leaves All His Money To the Minister of Justice Who Condemned Him To Death.

Dublin, Nov. 1s.-When Rory O'Connor was condemned to death and later shot in December, 1922, for complicity in the four courts coup fin Dublin. Free State Minister of Justice o'H'ggins, who ordered his execution, had to choose between friendship and duty. 1t was learned recently.
 O'Connor was q close friend of Mir. O'Higgins and had acted as his best man at the latter's wedding only six months before the sentence of death was passed. Mir. O'Higgins, although every effort was made to have him agree to save his friend, refused to grant reprleye.
 The agonizing struggle between duty and friendship completely over came Mir, O'Higgins, but perhaps the most dramatic feature of all was when the dead mans will was open ed and 1t was discovered that he had left all his money to the minister of justice.
