Minister of Posts and Telegraphs in the Irish Free State Cabinet Re- ported About to Resign.

ported About to Resign.
 Dublin, Aug. 2s P-Inquiries at government and other quarters this morning failed to elicit definite in formation concerning the rumored resignation of James J. Walsh. min- ister of posts and telegraphs in the Free State cabinet. It was learned, however, that he left Cork Friday for south France in i'll health and will not participate in the early part of the campaign for the general elections, but hopes to be back in Cork for the last week of the cam- paign.
 MT. Walsh's disappearance at this critical period, coupled with the be- lief that he did not see eye to eye with his cabinet colleagues. has created the impression here that there may be some truth in the story of his detection.

UNIVERSITY FORESTERS
AID PLANTING PROJECT


Foresters of the University of Min
nesota are helping to put through the
campaign of the Women,s Civic
League of st. Paul to make the cap-
ital city an evergreen city by fur
nishing pine trees for planting in the
yards of home owners. The trees
were distributed to the school children
who were counseled in the best me-
thods of handling and planting by the
extension service forester of the uni
versity.
The university foresters helped to
organize the project and to get the
tree stock. Of $4,000 three-year-old
seedlings of white, Norway, and
Scotch pine and spruce, 10000 were
purchased at nominal sum of the
university department of forestry and
were taken from it's nurseries in
Itasca State Park. Nurserymen of
Minnesota and Iowa found a market
in st. Paul for $4,000 young trees.
An evergreen in every yard is the
object of the campaign of the Women's
League. Business men of the city as
we'll as the women and children are
helping the movement.
