| i from a small fine.
In Kentucky, for example, man fined
less than 500 cannot appeal Editor Susong Of
Covington KY, convicted of Violating Ken
tuckys new gossip" law, wished to appeal
his case. He wished to test the validity of a
ridiculous statute, for one thing and, for an
other, probably felt he would find less preju-
dice in court outside the realm of city affairs,
since the complainant against him was the
mayor of the city. Anyhow, he was fined SIS
and his request to the court that the fine be
increased to 500 was denied He cannot ap-
peal.
No stigma attaches to this conviction in
Covington, but in many cases the harm done
is real. A man may be able to prove his limo
cence, but, if his arrest endangers those re-
sponsible for it, he may be fined nominal
sum and, with appeal thus cut off, he has no
recourse.
The little courts set themselves up as the
Supreme Court in such cases. Some sense of
judicial self-respect should prevent this prac-
tice, if nothing else will, for fning below the
line of appeal is certainly hitting below the
belt.

suit from such Improvement. The inmates of

The suggestion of county officials that the
State take over Julietta temporarily seems to
be a good one. At least there is good rea-
son why Marion county should pay large
proportion of the cost of maintaining the
Central hospital and at the same time maintain

How are swimmers made to dis

This is one method: From the
side a platform is built out two or
three feet above the surface Of the
water. From the front of this plat
form is extended woodwork, or any
other material downward into the
water. But, instead of this wood
work. reaching to the bottom, as it
appears to do, it ends perhaps two

therefore, for swimmer to dive

MENACE TO FORESTS SEEN IN HEAVY CROP
 OF CHRISTMAS TREES
(By Associated Press)


 OLYMPIA, Wash, Jan. 24.-With commercial cutters taking an estim- ated toll of 100000 Christmas trees annually from privately owned logged off lands in the state of Washington, their activities are becoming an i'm portant factor in the already serious problem of reforestation, according to Fred E. Pape, state supervisor of for estry. The Christmas tree cut, he de- clared, now equals the number of ma ture trees ordinaryily felled each sea- son in numbering operations.
 "The menace of the annual holiday onslaught is all the more serious" Su- pervisor Pape stated, when the class of trees selected and the manner in which the cutters proceed is taken in- to consideration. If they followed a thinning out process, their activities might even be beneficial, but, because of the economic problems involved, the method followed by the cutters is one which is most destructive to the growing timber.
 Purchasers demand trees which are we'll formed and this kind can be secured in large quantities only where the growth is rather scattered and needs no artificial thinning. In order to render their operations pro. fitable, the cutters select such tracts and then make a clean sweep, as their ratio of profits is increased largely by the number of marketable trees taken from given acreage State laws prevent the cutting of Christmas trees on state property" There is now, however, a growing belief on the part of some legal au thorities, Supervisor Pape said, that such cuttings on privately owned lands can be prevented on the gener al principle that private interests must always be subservient to public welfare
 In addition to supplying Yuletide decorations for state residents, Wash ingtOn Christmas trees are now beine shipped to many other state and ever to the American island possessions.
