LEADERS AND FORESTS

When the forest go the waters go the fish and game go, crops go, herds and flocks go, fertility departs. Then the age-old phantoms appear, stealthi- ly one after another-FloOds, Fire, Droughts, Famine, Pestilence.-Rob- ert Chambers.
 Next to the earth itself the forest is the most useful servant of man. Not only does it sustain and regulate the streams, moderate the winds, and beautify the land, but it also supplies wood, the most widely used of all ma- terials. Its uses are numberless al- so. It is essential to the well-being of mankind that these demands should be met. They must be met steadily. fully, and at the right time if the for est is to give it's best service.-Gif- ford Pinchot.
 Americans owe more than any other people on earth to the tolls, sacrifices, and forethought of their forefathers. and it is their duty-every mans duty to transmit the inheritance they re- ceived from them to their decendants unimpared by waste and neglect Gen. J. s. Brisbin, U. s. A.
 The length of time required for the growth of timber from the seed to ma turity shows conclusively that it was never destined in the order of nature for the exclusive use of single gen. eration.-William Cullen Bryant.

 "The demand for American woods is because derwood, fir and pines from the Pacific coast of the United States are better for certain uses than woods obtained in Siberia" says Watananabe. Americans should not look for great increase in lumber exports to Japan in 1925, due to large stocks of lumber being on hand following recons struction demand created by an earthquake and fire in Tokio last year, and be- cause Japanese financial conditions are such as to discourage expensive dealings. Trade between Japan and America is growing rapidly

BOOTSTRAP FINANCE


 the worst financial crises it has fac ed in the history of the present re- public. Strangely enough, the French appear to have been the last to fore see the crash-either that or they thrust their heads into the sand and ignored the approach of danger.
 The crisis has forced the downfall of the Herriot cabinet and it has been factor in French politics for some time. The socialists under Her. riot brought on their doom by pro- posing the capital levy-a thing they favored in principle but hesitated to apply because they must have re- alized it would mean their downfall. The capital levy was a plank in the platform of the British socialists under Macdonald also, but MacDon- aid hesitated to bring it to the front, and that fact contributed in part to his fall because his hestitancy aroused resentment among the more radical of his followers.
 But Herriot could not solve a pro- blem that will not yield to theoreti- cal treatment. France has been lift ing itself by its bootstraps in finan- cial matters so long that affairs sim ply have reached the breaking point. The capital levy might help temper arily but it probably would really make matters worse
 The French have been living on promise, or a demand, that could not be met-that Germany should and would be made to pay for the war. The government of the repub- lie and the various subsidiary gov ernments issued promises to pay in somewhat the same way as the Ger man government ground out paper marks. These securities were to be redeemed when Germany paid. But Germany never will pay anything like what the French expected, and it is improbable that they ever will pay everything they promised to pay un- der the Dawes plan. In any event, the French have strained their credit far beyond its stretching point and meanwhile have done nothing to in- dicate any intention to honor their war debts. The natural result has been a Slump in the franc, and the question now is how to meet the problem of protecting the govern credit.
 The British, who pay more taxes than the French, and who have talk. an care of their war obligations, say one way for the French to recover IS for the leaders to tell the people he truth-which is that they must largely bear the cost of their war. 50 delicate has the situa ton become hat Joseph Caillaux, former prime minister, who was exiled from France lur1ng the war as a traitor and lat 1T granted immunity, has been call.

NEWCASTLE, Ind, May 49,
Alvin Hilligoss, Greenfield, Ind, taxi
driver, facing trial in Henry Circuit
Court, at Newcastle, on the charge
of numbering Henry Roberts, OF
Greenfield, World War Veteran
and husband Of Nellie Roberts
whose affections IIilligoss is alleged
to have alienated while Roberts was
across with the American forces, Is
sitting through the days in court
with a peaceful smile on his face, as
he hears the State slowly unreeI it's
vast mass Of evidence.
The State rested it's case Thursday.
Hilligcss was expected to take the
stand today.
On Armistice Day
Roberts was shot by Hilligoss on
last Armistice day, Nov. II, 1924, on
a lonely road north of Greenfield,
when the former came upon the
Hilligoss car, parked along the road,
with Mrs. Roberts and Hilligoss in
the rear seat and Ida King of Green
field sitting behind the wheai.
The State contends that when
Roberts stepped on the running
aboard Of the car to peer In, Hilligoss
Vdrew a 45-caliber revolver and fired
twice, without any further provoca-
ton.
Hilligoss is pleading self-defense
and alleges Roberts crawled into the
car and was choking him when he
reached in the pocket Of the car and
pulled the gun with which the fatal
shots were fired.
Wife F1ees
Mrs. Roberts has fled and will not
likely testify in the case. Ida King,
the other member of the trio In
the car, left the machine when
Roberts approached and declares she
did not see what took place.
At Greenfield, the county seat of
Hancock County, from which court
the case was venued to Henry Cir
cult Court, feeling is strong against
the defendant. He was convicted
there, some months ago, of trans
porting liquor
