waltonians Plant Trees.

Sandy Spring, Md. November 21.-Initia-
ting reforestation program for Maryland
members of Isaak Walton League of the
District of Columbia and Maryland today
planted more than an acre of Seeding
white pine trees on farms of this vicinity.
The movement leading to the planting
OF the trees, which was under the auspices
Of the Sandy Spring chapter of the League,
will be continued ia this section during
the next few weeks and resumed in the
spring. II is expected that similar move
ments will occur in other parts of the
county and State as result of the start
today.
Among those taking part in the simple
ceremonies and aiding in the planting were
DR.. M. Darcy Magee. president of the
District of Columbia chapter Of the League;
Wallace Stowell, also of the District Of
Columbia chapter; Howard Hopkins. forest
inspector with the United States Forestry
Service; Richard Kilbourne of the Mary
land Forestry Service at College Park ;
Samuel P. Thomas. and W. J. Thomas, Of
Ashton; John Bancroft. Milton Bancroft
and Edward Snowden. of Sandy Spring
Yellot Candy. of Colesville. and Harry
Matthews. of Olney. Four boy scouts.
Duane Pattie. Maurice Brown. Randolph
Turner and Malcolm Thomas. also assisted
in the work.
DR.. Magee outlined the purposes and
intent Of the Isaak Walton League in
short address at luncheon held in the fire
house of the Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire
Department. One of the most outstanding
principles of the league is reforestation, he
said. and Sandy Spring is doing the pioneer
work in Maryland.
Forest Inspector Hopkins praised the
league. which he said was leading the pub
JIG to see and grasp the significance of the
undertaking the United States Forestry
Service has on their hands. Milton Ban
croft, of Sandy Spring. on whose farm some
of the planting was done. stated that
reforestation is not only good business for
farm owner. but provides coveraee for
small game, aids in preserving the water
supply and adds to the beauty of the coun-
trysde.
The luncheon was in charge of Samuel
P. Thomas. chairman Of the local refores-
tation program. 1t was served by Mrs.
Mary Adams Bentley. Mrs. Evelyn Thomas
and Miss Beatrix T. Moore of the Ladies'
Auxiliary Of the Fire Department.
Single trees were planted on the farm Of
William J. Thomas. on the Colesville road,
and at Fair Hill. the place of Harry Math-
ews. at Olney. representing the beginning
of reforestation which will be started in
these places next spring. On the farms of
Milton Bancroft. on the Layhill road. and
Francis A. Thomas. at Brinklow. about
one-half acre each was planted in Seeding
trees.
The trees planted on the Bancroft farm
were placed beside about four acres of
pine trees planted eight years ago by Mr..
Bancroft, which have now attained growth
of about IL feet and which gave concep-
ton of what the planting done today will
look like in time to come.

Questions and Answers

President Hoover's Muscle Shoals statement con-
tains six questions and puzzle. The questions
be answered, but the puzzle only puzzles.
In naming the factors he will consider in signing
vetoeing the Muscle Shoals compromise BILL
Hoover asked these questions:
l. Whether it is desirable to adopt a change in
federal policies utility ownership and operations
Our answer is that the question of federal owner
ship is not involved. The government already owns
Muscle Shoals The government already is operat-
ing it for the benefit Of private power company.
But if an additional answer is needed, Hoover
himself said during the campaign that Muscle Shoals
the exception to his general policy against gov
eminent operation, because it was a byproduct of
great major purpose.
g. Whether the lease provision in respect to the
fertilizer plants genuinely is workable?
The answer is that those who should know say
the nitrate plants can be leased. Certainly the
President is given wide enough powers by this bill
to remove minor constacles which might arise.
g. Whether the method proposed in this bill will
produce cheaper fertilizer for the farmers?
The is that the lessee of the nitrate plants
is given first call on cheap power he is ordered to
manufacture nothing but fertilizer in the government
plants, and the limit of profit he may make this
product is stipulated If it is possible to manufacture
cheaper fertilizer for farmers at Muscle Shoals this
bill will do it.
d. Whether the project is required for national de-
tense?
The answer is that the project was built originally
for that purpose But Of course only another conflict
can determine whether it will be needed again for
ton defense. In the meantime, why sacrifice that
preparedness
s. Whether this bill is in the interests of the people
OF the Tennessee valley!
The answer is that the people of the Tennessee
valley appear we'll satisfied with the compromise Many
Of them are confident that putting Muscle Shoals to
work will initiate the great development fthe river
And, in addition, the states of Alabama and Tennes-
see will benefit especially through their szeabe per-
centage of the gross receipts from power sales.
g. Whether the whole project is business PROPOSE
ton?
The answer Is that only trial will answer this.
But awaiting this trial. 1t is obvious that the compro
mise will accomplish approximately what Hoover him.
self must have had in mind when he sponsored the
proposal to lease the whole project to private COM
panies.
So much for Hoovers questions
Hts puzzle was the statement that the long Muscle
Shoals controversy had sidetracked other effective
ton for federal regulation of interstate power
operation with the states. This effective action" must
be hidden in the Presidents mind There has been
no such administration proposal before congress.
Other parts of Hoovers statement made clear that
he understands the enormous political and economic
potentialities of the bill He can sweep away the
former by considering the latter
If he does this, he only can decide to sign the
compromise bill.
