AMERIcAn FOREST WEEK

The week April 1s to "a has been designated
by presidential proclamation as American Forest
week. This subject is vastly important to ths
average citizen, because his expenses have been
treaty increased by the waste Of our timber re-
sources. People would not have to be paying such
high rent for houses today, if our wooden building
material had not been made scarce and high by
forest waste.
The Clarke-McNary forest law, passed by con-
grsss in 1924, created national forestry. policy
which eventually win do great deal for the tim

operation from the average citizen. Even if the
government does all it can to protect the forests,
yet II the average Of people are very careless
as respects forest fires, then the remnants of
woodlands in this country are going to be wasted
The general use Of automobiles has proved
frequent cause Of these destructive fires in some
sections. Someone may throw away a cigaret end
from an automobile into the dry grass by the side
Of the road, and in few moments attire has start

THE EIcHT-HoUR DAY

~ Another great advance has been made toward
the universal adoption of the eight-hour day
through the recent agreement of representatives
~ Great Britain. Germany, France, Italy and Bel
gipm to recommend dts official recognition by
their eovernments.
The struggle Of industrial toilers for shorter
wOrk-dsy and better working conditions is long
story that would fill many volumes But it has
been on the whole successful struggle in most
civilized countries, and while the methods employ
ed to secure victory have been at times open to
question, there is doubt that both employed and
employee are better off today because of it.
TO illustrate what has been gained, we need
only reflect upon the fact that the first hour legs-
Ation on record passed by the British parlia-
haent in 1902 and limited the labor of children
working IN factories to twelve hours day!
81 America secured wide adoptisaoef the ton
hour day by 1886, while the eieht.heur day made
little headway until about 1886, and is yet by no
means fully IN effect in the United States although
prevails IN trades that are effectively organized,
p wsll - affecting others embracing about one
half f che wsge-earners Of the country, excepting
farm hands and domestics. s
But while the eight-hour day is no doubt rea-
scnable end desirable for the average wage-earner
We know RI no one who ever made q mark in the
world who confined his efforts to eight hours a
day.

ST. LOUIS CHECKS UP

In order to get the facts regarding crime and
sisxs punishment, a "crima survey" was recently
made in st. Louis, as part Of statewide effort
t. secure authentic information concerning condi-
tons The findings were bad enough
The record in st. Louis for year showed 149

laries and robberies with only 1872 punishments
80 In other words only one murderer out Of six
received any punishment whatever, while but one
burglar or robber out Of "a suffered any penalty.
There is no reason to believe that the situs-

MENTAL SCENERY
 FOR RADIO DRAMA
Versatility Required to Produce Effects for Audience"

Not, the least important person. age in the radio drama group is the man who builds scenery out of sound.
 It is not enough, in the produc- tion of a play by radio, to an- nounce at the beginning of an act that the action takes place indoors or outdoors. at the shore or in the woods. The listener must gain his mental picture of the setting from the lines of the play and from supplementary sounds. These sounds are usually produced by the use of props" but sometimes the most striking effect Is gained by import ing the sounds from the scene de- ricted. For example. the British Broadcasting company placed a microphone at busy London street corner and produced these sounds as q background for the lines Of the playing cast. There are eects, however, that might be diff ticult of importation. For example a forest fire might not always syn chronize with play. At WGY som metime ago a most realistic for est fire was created by the use of . plumbers blow torch for the sound of flame and wind and by breaking up matches 10 simulate the sound Of cracking. breaking, burning tree limbs.
 Since the listener Is unable to see anyone enter a scene, the char acter's presence is generally de- notd by the closing of a door or hy the lines. For this reason the doors In all the homes of the radio drama characters are apt to be squeaky affairs and the slamming of dooM which has won many a boy or girl a corrective word from parents, becomes a necessity.
 The scenery. according to Mir. Clay is another question entirely, for the obvious sound is not always the most suitable to produce a certain effect. Hours and hours are sometimes de- voted to devising a fairly accurate sound production. After the props" necessary to create the sound have been found or built radio rehears- als must be held in cooperation with the radio engineers.
 Stage "Props' Not Suitable.
 The stage prop" is very rarely suitable for radio use, though the wind and thunder machine of the stage are usually used for the thun- der storm effect. In the movies the spectator sees the locomotive and the supplementary sounds produced in the orchestra pit need not be very accurate to emphasize the effect. The picture has registered in the mind of the spectator. On the stage also prop "-produced noises are often poor limitations of the real thing. The radio microphone is so sensitive that the motion picture theater or stage props are practical ly useless. The passing train must sound like a train and not a motor cycle or a tug boat
 One of the most stubborn "sound' problems that Mr. Clay has faced was the production of the sound of q speeding express train. This par

skates passed over the panel one couldn't tell the sound from that of train pumping over uneven rails. The volume of sound was regu- lated in the control room. The listener first heard the aistaA. whistle and the muffled roar and each second the control room crew built up the volume until the heavy train vertically thundered past the little country railway station. An added effect, familiar to those who live near passing trains, was the rattling of window glass. Six people were required to produce the required train effect, one to whistle. one to chug, one to operate the roller skates one to make the windows rattle and another to sound the bell and the sixth, the control room operator to control the sound volume.
 The best recipe for fast train then is: two short pieces of wood covered with sandpaper, flour sieve, a pair of roller skates, a metal panel. a whistle. a bell and two pieces of heavy cord.

permanent tax revision but that the subject had been discussed between them before Mir. Coolidge surprised the country by announcing his posi- ton two weeks ago.
 No Auto Tax Repeal
 Specifically, the full force of the administration was said to lie against the latest proposal to repeal the automobile tax. The president feels that with congress appropriat- ing ss0,ooo,00o a year for roads, the federal government has a right to levy against automobile users. At some future time he might favor q rduction in this tax. but not now.
 Heretofore the demand for relief from the automobile tax has come largely from the democrats in con- gress but today republican mem- Der of the house. Hudson of Michi- gan, announced that he had prepar- ed tax bill that would repeal the levy, cutting $75,000,000 from
