Pines from California
 Now Thrive in Africa

LONDON. Feb. 20-California pines do exceptionally well in South Africa. Certain species of pine introduced from the Great Bear state have grown so rapidly in it's new environment that 1t has attained height off 13O feet in forty years. while eucalyptus from Australia grow even more rapidly. having gained 113 feet at eleven years of age.
 In an account of recent tour of South Africa. Major Strang Steel. M. P. in the Empire For estry Journal. says the Union gov ernment has decided to plant 10.- 900 acres of trees annually. in it's new scheme of afforestation, many of which will be California pines.
 In New Zealand the government is continuing experiments which may result in the afforestation of $, ,OOO, 900 acres of semi-waste land in the next twenty-five years. If this program should prove pos sible of execution the Dominion instead of having to import large quantities of timber, as at pres ent from the Pacific coast of the United States and elsewhere, may eventually have | fair surplus for export. Major efeel predicts. \

French Again Welcome :.
 In Their Own Stores

PARIS, Feb. 20--The French are being welcomed back into the stores where formerly foreigners from lands of gold money were pampered customers. lronical pesons are reminding the store keepers that many of them a year ago, said they didn't rely on French trade for their profit.
 Times have changed" says Maurice Prax. speaking for his countrymen in a newspaper arti- cle. "The foreigners are gone or they find things expensive and the Frenchman who counts his sous again gets some attention
 The disposition to bid for for eigners' trade became so marked that recently there was a bill be- fore parliament to tax signs Tn foreign languages, as is done in Italy. This catering to foreign buyers caused many merchants to put out signs in English and French and some even disregard ed their own language entirely.

THAT ESPIONAGE ACT
 BE WIPED OFF
Representative Berger to Introduce Bill for Re-
 peal of Act

WASHINGTON. Feb. 20-Re- peal of the war time Espionage Act is proposed in bill prepared for introduction by Representative Victor l.. Berger, Socialist of Wis consin.
 characterizing the act as the most outrageous measure ever passed in our country Berger said most terrible danger was in permitting it to remain in force. This becomes very real when any Administration con tinues to pursue it's Imperialistlc |policies in Mexico and Nicaragua and other places. If official dec |laration of war should come a citizen would find himself silenced under the penalty of a 20 year |prison term, if he expressed sentl- |ments not in accord with the ad- |ministration."

 Senator Phipps also advised the Governor that the bill fixes the limit of cost of the local building at 5000. It carries an authorization to the Secretary |of the Treasury to enter into a contract for completing the build ing, instead of contracting by piecemeal to the limit of the |money appropriated annually.
 The current appropriation Of |$200.000 will be immediately available, Senator Phipps said. This will make it possible for bids to be called for at once and work to start upon the award Of 1.-the contract without waiting for |the next fiscal year as normally would be the case.
