DRUG ADDICTION IN THE
UNITED STATES GREATLY
OVER-ESTIMATED

Drug addiction in the United
States is great evil, but the effort
of .antiprohibition propagandists to
make it appear that prohibition has
increased drug addiction has caused
the number of drug addicts in the
country to be greatly over-estimated.
The government has recently done
service in the publication OF a
pamphlet entitled, The Prevalence
and Trend of Drug Addiction in the
United State and factors influencing
it,
This pamphlet discusses the
various serious efforts which have
been made to estimate the number
of drug addicts in the United States.
The estimates discussed are, re-
sectively, $4,000; 104,3OO; 14O,-
900; 215,OOO; 237,655; 242,0OO.
The 99,5OO estimate is based upon
the number of addicts found in the
army and it is not considered that
this estimate can be justly applied
to the country as a whole.
The conclusion reached by the
Public Health Service is that the
evidence seems to show that a
maximum estimate, for the number
Of addicts in the United States at
the present time would be 10000.
The estimates based on actual counts
and on the available supplies OF mar
cotics together with the conditions
reported by the physicians inter-
! viewed, point to about 10000,
which number is believed to be
nearly correct"
Cheering news is found in the
fact that so far from prohibitions
having increased drug addiction, the
number of drug addicts has steadily
declined both before and since
prohibition.
The Public Health Service says:
1.-THE number of drug addicts has
decreased steadily since 1900. Be-
fore the decrease set in, there may
have been 264,0OO drug addicts in
this country"

The drastic prohibition measure
which recently passed the legis-
ture of Indiana indicates two
things:s
First, the realization that only
drastic measures will suppress a
trade which was lawless when
licensed and is rebellious now.
Second, that it is primarily the
duty Of the states and not the fed
eral government to do the detailed
police work necessary to the proper
enforcement of prohibition. Other
states are passing similar laws. The
Indiana measure provides that the
possession of any amount of liquor
is q misdemeanor punishable by a
minimum fine of 500, and not less
than 30 days Imprisonment, while
the transportation OF any amount OF
liquor is a felony. The law recog-
nizes the facet that the transporter
and possessor of small amount OF
eliQuorsis guilty of the grave offense
of seriously hindering the govern
ment in its effort to protect the
nation from one of the greatest
menaces of history. He is in a
sense an objector against war
measures.

PURPOSE OF AMERICAN
FOREST WEEK

American Forest Week has been
set aside by Presidential Proclama-
ton as time to bring to the atten-
ton Of the American people the facts
concerning the vast unnecessary
wastage of our forests by fire, waste
full manufacturing operations, and
failure to keep Americas forest land
at work growing tree crops. The
Governors of many States issued
proclamations supplementing h e
one issued by President Coolidge.
American Forest Week is an out
growth of Forest Protection Week
which originated on the Pacific
Coast six years ago. 1t quickly grew
to national preparations, and in
1921 President Harding issued a
Proclamation which placed the Fed
eral Government in general, and the
Forest Service in particular, squarely
behind the movement President
Harding issued Proclamations again
in 1922 and 1928. Last year Presi-
dent Coolidge issued a Proclamation.
President Coolidge this year is
sued a Proclamation broadening the
scope of the annual campaign to in
clude all phases OF Americas
forest problems, changing the name
to American Forest Week. The
President urges all citizens either in
association or as individual to take
an active part in the campaign. All
Governors were urged to issue
supplemental proc1amations, espec-
tally in reference to the celebration
of Arbor Day during the Week.
American Forest Week is ma
tional affair. 1t is not an exclusive
party for any single organization,
public or private. On the contrary,
it is actively participated in by or
CARNATIONS interested in industry,
in outdoor life, in game and wild
life, in water resources, and in eco
nomics and civic matters. Lumber
companies, wood using manufac-
turers, and kindred business interests
are among the general business in
terests Of thescoun&ry which take an
active part III observing the Week.

FERTILIZER TONNAGE In 1924
SHOWS INCREASE


Official tonnage figures from "a OF
the larger fertilizer using States in
dictate that the total tonnage for all
States in 1924 was over 1000, 900
tons, as compared with 6,647,OOO
tons 1923.
While these figures show only a
small increase, the comparison is
misleading on account OF the higher
grade goods sold in every part OF the
country in 1924. A little over two
years ago a campaign for standard
analysis wos started, in which the
fertilizer industry received the CO.
operation of various State expert
ment stations. This campaign has
borne fruit and resulted in the
elimination of large tonnage of low
analysis. The substitution OF higher
grades has been of distinct advan-
tage to both farmer and manufact-
urer, through the saving of freight,
bags, and manufacturing costs.
AS an instance OF the progress
along these lines, Indiana used $780,
184 tons in 1920 and 195,7O2 tons in
1928, but the 1928 tonnage act
ually contained 1928 tons more
plant food than was sold in the
larger 1920 tonnage.
If it were possible to report on the
plant-food units in the past two
years, it is extremely probable that
the increase for 1924 over 1928
would be at least rs per cent.

DAYS OF CHANGE

THIS is a day of marvellous lnven-
= ton, great change, startling pro-
gress. If our forefathers could take
a peak at modern American city,
they would imagine they were look
ing into a strange land described in
the Arabian Nights. Just the other
day a man in an aeroplane talked, by
radio, with thirty thousand people
seated many thousand feet below him
in a stadium. Pictures leap over thou
sands of miles by wireless, and the
size and metallic makeup of stars
hundred of billions Of miles away are
being determined.
Other revolutionary changes are
going on too in this age tho they do
not appear quite so uncanny. The in
dustrial map of this country is becom-
ing vastly different. Many factories
are moving out of the East to get
nearer their raw materials while 9TH
ers are going into the East to he
closer to certain markets.
Consultations too are affecting
the industrial lives of many COM
munities. Experience has shown that
the little fellow cannot exist and
profit in the face Of the efficiency
Of a vast organization. So we are
having railroad mergers, automobile
plant mergers, AMI utility consolida-
tions. Large newspapers are buying
up their Improbable competitors, and
steadily and surely business is being
ever before.
This tendency makes it increasing
.ly difficult for the average city like
Kennewick to attract new industries.
And moreover new manufacturing
plants cannot be induced to locate
here as they were attracted to cities
like ours in recent years.
The bonus, the free site, and even
the large local stock subscriptions
are not half so important to the man.
ager of an industry as favorable
freight rates, availability of raw
materials and markets, labor supply,
and other factors that determine the
success or failure of the new venture.
It is, therefore, time for men who
want to build up their cities to for
get mere idle booster talk, and get
down to brass tacks and boost in an
intelligent and effective manner.

UP-TREND IN FARM LAND

IF YOU have been farming for the
= past four or five years without any
real success; if you are becoming
discouraged over the chance of re-
alizing any profit by tilling the soil,
and if you are making plans to sell
out and get into something else, just
pause and think this matter over
carefully. Then make up your mind
to hang on for another year at least.
For farm lands are rapidly recov-
ering in value thruout the country.
A special inquiry brought to light
the following facts:
Farm lands reached the lowest
point in ten years at the beginning Of
1925, with an average price per acre
for the entire United States of $63
The past few months, however, have
seen rapid rebound from this low
price because values have never been
lower in recent years in proportion
to income, and values are based upon
possible or average income per acre
in any given territory.
The Bookmeyer Econodlic Service
basing it's representations upon these
facts, advises people to consider
farm land at present prices an ex-
cellent investment. And this advice
will tend to create far more active
market for farms during the next
few months than we have seen in this
country before for some time.
Backing up these statements is
sued by the Brookmeyer Service are
opinions Of Federal land bank and
farm loan officers, farm organization
leaders, and farm land real estate
men.
Throughout the country confidence
in future possibilities of farming is
on the upward incline. So whether
you plan to continue on the soil for
the rest of your life or not, you had
better hang onto your place for a
little while longer.
Good farm land will increase from
twenty-five to fifty dollars per acre
during the next twelve months" is
the statement of prominent Chica-
go banker dealing in farm land mort
cages.
Now you know how much land you
have. So sit right down and figure
what profit you can make by farming
thru one more year at least.

KEEP CLIMBING

MATCH an airplane some day as
W it scars and climbs toward the
zenith accompanied by the roar of
its powerful motor. Smaller and
smaller it grows. Fainter and fainter
becomes the hum of the motor. High
er and higher the pilot climbs. Then
silence. The motor is stopped. -.-7
Sailing gracefully as a hawk the
machine seems to remain in the
heights for a time. How beautifully
she banks the curves. How cleverly
the pilot holds his elevation.
4 But like everything in this world
she must either climb higher or drop
lower. Gradually she begins to grow
larger and larger until finally she
points her nose toward the earth and
gracefully alights again on terra
firma.
The life of man and the life of
a community may be likened to the
flight of this machine When you
stop the motor of individual effort or
community initiative, you immediate
ly begin decent to dead level of
mediocrity.
If you desire to improve your OPP
portunities year after year, you must
devote your leisure time to those in
te11pctua1 or mental nI1rs1lifS which
will make you more efficient. If you
want Kennewick to stand forth as
better community than the average,
you must do your part to create more
community spirit. For individual eff
fort and community enthusiasm are
the motors which keep the man or
his city constantly climbing to high
er and better things.
