PINcHoTs GREETING FROM HOME

Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania IS certainly
doing his best to keep the home fires burning"
He recently paid visit to Los Angeles and the
Pacific coast and the criticisms he uttered against
his political coWofkers and conditions in the state
over which it has been his fortune to preside were
astounding to all persons who know anything Of
his personal ambitions. They have been warmly
resented by influential newspapers in Pennsy-
vana. The Philadelphia Public Ledger, one,of the
oldest, and most respected newspapers in the
state took the governor to task in scathing edi-
torial, saying in part:
"A sense of decency and consideration for the
good name of a mans state usually keeps him
from waving any dirty linen in public
Not Governor Pinchot. Pittsburgh and Phia-
delphia have opposed him. They do not see as he
sees or think as he would have them think. They:
therefore, are vile. Sodom and Gomorrah were
nowhere compared with them
The governor has ambitions He usually has.
He wants to be senator and project himself upon
the national screen. He follows strange tactics
Does he imagine that he is going to be elected
senator by blackening the faces of two great cities
in the sight of the nation and angering everx man
and woman in them who has an atom of municipal
pride?"
Governor Pinchot's greatest political blunder is
his ambition to run things He refuses to
recognize the right of other men to differ with
him and in the face of the opposition of the party
leaders, his election as governor was one of the
greatest surprises the old-ne republican COM
monwealth ever experienced. He made promises
concerning the enforcement Of prohibition that
he utterly failed to redeem, largely because his
chilling aloofness and dctatorial attitude repeled
the party support he craved Standardization
will not do No man can win without sympathetic
help. It has been tried and failed The presi-
dency is as far from the grasp Of Governor
Plnchot it is from the grasp of the pooh-bah of
Jugeville-Los Angeles Times.

A CHEAP POLITICAL COUP?

The new automobile laws which are to go into
effect the first of the year are not meeting with
any especial amount of Joyous feeling The asses
sors of the state at their annual meeting recently
condemned the law in no uncertain terms. Sec
retary of State Kerby evidently is wise poll
tician. The salary of his office was increased
some S2500 per year and most of the extra work
went to the county assessors office Seeing the
feeling he has agreed to give the assessors 20
per cent of all the money they collect This may
help some, but what right has he to make such a
deal?
The automobile now pays several kinds of taxes
including the regular property tax. 1t would not
be surprising if the new law will become about as
difficult to enforce as the Volstead act.

UNCLE SAM HAS MUCH INVESTED
IN EUROPE

Total American investments in foreign coun-
tries now total nine and one-half billion dollars
according toy the finance and investment division
of the department of commerce. This total does
not include the II billions which the foreign gov
ernments owe the government of the United
States, which would bring the total to over 20
billions.
During the first six months of this year foreign
securities in the sum of S551 0000 900 were offered
to the people of the United States as an invest
ment. During the same period no foreign loans
were offered in Great Britain, which has recently
adopted restrictive policy in regard to foreign
loans, because of the British return to the gold
standard
The total American investment in Europe is
now three times as great as it was before the
World war; it is said, and the total is steadily in
creasing 6
The American total of foreign investments, not
including the government war loans is distributed
as follows, according to the figures:
Government guaranteed obligations: Canada
and New Foundland, S1,125,00O,O00 Latin
America $915,000000; Europe, $1,665 100000; !;
Asia and Oceania, $442,0O0,000; total, $4,147, ,O00
O0O
Industrial securities and direct investments :
Canada and New Foundand, $1,4200OO,OOO; !;
Latin America, $3,225000,000; Europe, $780,
100000; Asia and Oceania, $28O,000,00O total,
$5,375, 100000.
These figures give a total of both classes of
foreign investments of $9,522,000,000.

State rranspIants Seedlings.

Due to extensive tree planting,
which has depleted stocks of young
trees raised at the State nurseries, the
State Department of Forestry is trans
planting excess pine seedlings from
Talbot and Allegany counties.
The transplanting was arranged
with property owners where planta-
lions of young trees needed thinning.
The transplanted trees will be dis
tributed at cost for planting in Mary
land.
About 1900 loblolly pine seedlings
have been transplanted from Talbot
county for replanting in Queen Anne's,
Caroline, Worcester and Wicomico
counties.
More than $4,000 white pine seed
lings are being moved from heavily
ttimbered sections of Allegany county,
where the trees are too thick to allow
for proper development. Half of these
seedlings are being planted in one for
estry development in Garrett county.
In addition to the transplanted trees,
100000 seedlings and 5000 larger
trees raised at the College Park nurs-
cries are being planted in Maryland
this spring.
In anticipation of increasing inter
est in tree growing the Forestry De-
partment is planting enough loblolly
pine seed this year to produce $4,000
trees. if all the seed terminates, ac-
cording to Assistant State Forester
Gordon D. Marckworth.

STATE POLICE now
FOREST WARDENs
State Policemen Commissioned
As Wardens In Fight To
Prevent Fires.

Commissions as forest wardens have
been given to uniformed members of
the State police force. The commits
sions have been issued by Governor
Richie.
AS result effective enforcement of
forestry laws will be secured, accord
ing to Assistant State Forester Cor
don D. Marckworth.
He pointed out that such laws have
been difficult to enforce in the past,
since complaint had to be lodged
against offenders by forestry officials
before police action could be taken.
Commissioning of the police as
forest wardens has been considered
since December, when the Forestry
Department faced difficulty in enforc-
ing laws prohibiting activities of so
called Christmas tree vandals" in
cutting pine and holly trees and other
evergreens for Christmas decorations.
The action was determined upon after
a series of conferences between Motor
Vehicle Commissioner E. Austin
Baughman and State Forester F. w.
Besley
Among the duties of the State po-
lice in their new capacity are enforce
ment of laws regulating trimming of
roadside trees and cutting of ever
green's. They also will aid in con-
scription of men to fight forest fires.

STATES REQUIRING
PRISON GRAB CITED
Welfare Board Secretary Calls
Maryland And Delaware
Exceptions.

Practically every State in the Union
requires prisonersin penal institutions
to wear some kind of uniform, except
Delaware and Maryland, according to
report submitted to the Board of
Welfare by Robert s. Case, secretary.
It was pointed out that Arkansas, Mis-
sissippi and the Southern States re-
quire striped uniforms to be worn.
In many Of the States prisoners afs
placed in striped uniforms for violation
of prison rules or violation of parole.
At the Ottawa prison, Canada, prison
ers are required to wear blue wooden
uniforms in winter and brown denim
uniforms in summer.
In the prison at Havana, Cuba, "all
inmates wear white uniforms with a
number on the breast of the shirt" 1t
was stated. At the Eastern State Peni.
Tertiary, Philadelphia, prisoners wear
blue denim material consisting of a
coat, trousers, cap and shirt, and are
not allowed to wear civilian clothing
Col John C. Groome, warden Of the
Pennsylvania prison at Philadelphia,
wrote to Mr. Case: Personally
think the inmates of all penitentiaries
should wear striped clothing" On the
other hand, authorities at prisons in
California (San Quentin), Massachu
sets, Nebraska, New York auburn
prisony, Oregon, Rhode Island, South
Dakota, Vermont and Maine wrote that
stripes never are used
Arizona requires prisoners to wear
uniforms of "a gray herringbone cloth;
all TRUSTEES are permitted to wear CT
william clothing, and the authorities
there are opposed to uniforms of .
distinctive type"
In Maryland and Delaware prison
ers are permitted to wear civilian
clothing. At FOLSOM prison, California
two types of uniforms are in use
There gray cashmere uniforms are re
quired of all inmates except those who
have attempted to escape and those
who have violated their parole; of the
latter striped uniforms are required
for one year.
Those States which require striped
uniforms for prisoners who have
violated rules are, besides Folsom,
California, Alabama, Illinois (Joliet
PRISON., Iowa (checkered uniforms).
Kentucky, New Mexico. North Caro-
lima, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee
Texas, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
In his report to the board, Mr.. Case
wrote: II am in receipt of letter
and samples from manufacturing
firm of prison clothing. The Arm
states that it is supplying fifteen to
twenty States with material Of plain
blue or grayish blue cloth and Arkan
sas and other Southern States with
striped cloth"
