FIRE RECORDS
SHOW REAL IMPROVEMENT

A striking reduction of forest
fire damage for the 1925 season on
the great National Forests of
Wyoming is apparent from a COM
parison with a similar record for
1924, according to C. J. Stahl, Act
ing District Forester, Denver. Two
hundred and fifty-six acres of Ma
tional Forest land were burned over
in 1924 up to October 1. Only 9
acres were burned up to the same
date in 1925.
This decrease in acreage is ac-
companied by an almost equally
striking decrease in fire fighting
costs, s345 as compared with 1895,
although the number of fires which
actually started Is against Al for
the anne period in 1924, would &C
count for much larger figures for
both acreage and suppression cost.
The explanation of this good rec
ord lies not entirely in favorable
weather conditions for the season
as a whole. since spring and early
summer offered conditions of haz-
ard far above the average for parts
of Wyoming, nor in any radical
change or improvement in paid
fire fighting forces. According to
the District forester, the explana-
ton of the success which has been
met in handling forest fires this
year is due primarily to the SPLEEN
did cooperation of local residents
n mountain regions, who are in a
position to see and handle small
fires before they get beyond the
reach of a small crew of men.
Wyoming cannot be too grateful
to these people who, in close CO.
operation with the Forest Service,
have handled forest fires during
the current yea not only their
w protection but to the profit
of both the local and travelling
public, with a maximum of effici-
ency and with a minimum of ex-
pense.
Not one fire was reported during
the dude season.; two of the 8
Shoshone fires. one in Sunlight and
n on the Northfork are attribut-
ed by Rangers James and Spencer
to local hunters who were not ap-
pretended, but the fires were put
put before they had burned more
than a few acres

q. S. SENATE BOASTS
SEVERAL SENATORS IN
THEIR LATE TWENTIES

Because Robert NJ. LaFollette, Jr.
newly elected United States senator
from Wisconsin, is barely thirty
years old, the minimum age at
which the Constitution says one
may become a member of the sem
ate. there is widespread belief that
he is the youngest man ever to be
elected to this high office.
But such is not the case. Article
1, Section 8, of the Constitution to
the contrary Notwithstanding, Sen
ate records divulge the rather start
ling information that since Uncle
Sam opened for business and es-
tablished Congress to attend to his
legislative needs. there have been
four instances in which men under
thirty years of age have become
United States Senators. OF these
four. Senator Henry Clay, of Ken
lucky is perhaps the one about
whom history has most to say.
When he began his term of office
he was exactly 90 years, Z months
and Z days old. The other three
who have occupied seats in the
upper house of Congress in contra
diction to Constitutional provision
are Armistead T. Mason, of Vir-
ginia, who was % years and 5
months old when worn into office
on January 3, 1916; Elias Kent, of
Illinois. who assumed his Senator
ial duties on March 4th, 1925, at
the age of % years and s months;
and Stephen w. Dorsey. of .Arkan-
sas, who vas 20 years and Z days
old when he entered the Senate on
March 4, 1873.
In scanning senate records it is
found that no question was ever
raised concerning the age of any
of these Senators except that OF
Clay. In the Life of Clay" by Carl
Schurz. in the American Statesman
Series, 1t is said that although the

CZECHS TO PAY DEBT
RATE 3 MILLION YEAR

The Czechoslovakian debt funding
agreement has been made ready to
be presented to Congress by Secre-
tary Mellon, for the American Debt
Commission, and DIR. Vilem Pospisii,
representing Czechoslovakia. The
agreement has been approved by
President Coolidge and the terms of
the agreement were worked out i'll
conference in a manner satisfactory
to both nations.
The funding of the Czechoslovak-
ian debt is on a basis of one hun
dred and fifteen million dollars.
The terms are that Czechoslovakia
will discharge its debt in sixty-two
years, paying three million dollars
annually for eighteen years, after
which the amount will automatically
increase to approximately six mil
lion dollars per annum
The business-like name in which
Czechoslovakia has settled its agree
ment has made a most favorable
impression in Washington.

NASH MOTORS MAKE
BIG CUT In CAR PRICES

The Nash Motors Company has
announced price reductions ranging
up to $4,000 on the Advanced
Six and Special Six lines. The new
low prices are effective November
LIST. No change has been made in
the Nash models themselves. and tn
character and quality of the ears
remain exactly as before. This
sweeping Nash cut in prices is, in
effect, a double reduction according
to e. H. McCarty, General Sales
Manager of the Nash Motors Com
pany. when the new Nash mod
els nationally introduced July
23rd". says Mr.. McCarty. "they
presented new and original body de-
signs, far reaching improvements
In construction and many refine
ments in engineering and equipment
all of which entailed large increases
in manufacturing cost. If Nash
sales and production had not been
smashing all records for volume at
that time. we would certainly have
been compelled to increase prices
materially. But Nash prices were
held at the same figure and the
response on the part of the public
to this offering of greater value
and greater quality was instantan-
ecu and country wide. In the
three months period since national
Nash inaugural day, July 23rd,
when these new cars were first
placed on display, sales have more
than equalled one-half the sales
for the entire ear of 1924, which
was a banner year for Nash. So
that it is now possible for us to
make those sweeping reductions on
the Advanced Six and Special Six
lines and thus pass on the earned
benefits OF record-breaking produc-
ton to buyers.
There has been no %cheapening
of materials, construction or manu-
featuring. The same high stand
ards of quality and workmanship
that have earned a worldwide rep
utation for G. w. Nash as a builder
of h~igh-grade cars are strictly
maintained. And the aim of the
Nash Motors Company to continu-
ally give greater quality and greater
value in its product is now attained
in higher degree than ever before.
Unquestionably this present series
of Advanced Six and Special Six
models are the finest cars that have
ever borne the Nash name plate.
And the soaring demand from all
sections of the world is the best
evidence of that. "

down an ultimatum Of "work."
cit costs money to feed everyone
here now and unless you are willing
to work in such an emergency we
will not feed you,' is the gist of
the ultimatum handed down The
relief workers have been added to
by the arrival of 300 additional doe
tors and nurses from Chicago, who
arrived last night, and by the ar
rival of several more state guard
regiments.
The doctors and nurses have been
apportioncd to the various stricken
cities.

being brought home now by the
hourly casualty lists being posted
by the relief workers.

most without change. The group Of
watchers, sometimes almost line,

list of dead and injured.
Relief workers today expressed
the belief the total dead would be
between 500 and 900. Besides the
missing, the temporary hospitals
are filled with wounded and many
are reported dying.
