BIRDS OUR PROTECTORS

Although some varieties of birds are
nonsidered a great nuisance by farmers
and othe~3, it is doubtful that any of these
featherei trlDes are more destructive than
useful.
Birds are the natural enemies of in
cects, and insects are the greatest enemies
of mankind. Scientists have declared
that without continued research and the
emrloyment of improved means of COM
batting insects pests they would overrun the
world and destroy all other life, including
man.
The rapidity with which certain in
sel.5 multiply is beyond the imagination.
For example, ia pair of pucerons, species
OF flea, will in year produce more than
AL qnadrillion young. One small bird,
such rs a tomtit, will destroy about $500
of these in a day; d partridge will eat so
900 wLite grubs in year. Various birds
have their favorite insects upon which they
prey, but all eat practically any insect
which crosses their path. - =
With this ever present menace of in
sects to combat, we can hardly have too
many birds. Not only out of humane
sentiment, but as an actual protection to
civilization, the birds should be spared.

A BIG MAN SPEAKS

With so many influences and agencies
..orking to extend the socialist program in
the Unite. les, it is heartening to those
Tho believe IN the superiority of private
Initiative and enterprise, to read the follow
ing courage1,.s expressions from recent
address of former governor Alfred E. Smith
at the Century of Progress exposition in
Chicago. isr. Smith said, in part:
"As went through tx fair thought
to myself that there is still another great
lesson for the people of this country to
learn . aside from the assistance of Di-
vine Providence, what has maue this GEN.
tury on progress?
IF you will study this fair, you will be
obliged to come to the conclusion that this.
century OF progress was .rought about by
individual initiative; by the strength, the
power, the courage, the brains and ability
of the men and women Of the Republic of
North America. Whether you point to
progress in industry, science, invention,
transportation, or the arts, what you see
here is the triumph of the mind and the
hand of free men, without dictatorship.
Ninety percent of the exhibits here
mark advances in our civilization. due en-
tirely to individuals, private individuals,
working without inspiration, compulsion,
control or even suggestion from the govern
kment itself, In fact, it is noteworthy that
the government has done very little to con-
tribute to this century of progress, while,
on the otner hand, much has beer prevent
ed, much has been thwarted, much has been
hindered by the heavy, cold, clammy hand
of bureaucracy.
Nov let us not be too cynical about
the motives that have actuated the men
who have wrought these buildings whi0n
house miracles of science and invention.
P4ide of achievement, ambition - excel,
love of work and art have had IRE to do
with it than the mere desire to make money
or to exploit otheis. And it is a matter
of common fact that government is at
its best when it supplel.: eats and cooper
ates with private industry.
And century from noy another ex-
position will arrive here, to mark another
century of triumphant progress Of free men,

PARIS POLICE
 AFTER HOLDER
 OF MARKED BILL
Believed to Be One of Those Paid By Col Lind- .bergh for His Kidnapped Son

Paris. Sept 22.-(UP)-Police announced to-day that they hoped to arrest soon q man who for sev' eral days was in possession or Q bill believed to be ono Of those paid by Col Charles A. Lindborgh in a vain effort to ransom his kid- napod son. The bill, police said, was seized at Antwerp when three men were arrested there.
 Though police would not reveal the arrest of tho man sought here they intimnted he was q French- man alleged to have been visited within the last several days by q Chicagoan.
 Police hore wore informed by Antwerp that tho three men arrest ed there presented to an Antwerp bank, 0 Bank of England note for 1000 pounds. The Antwerp bank communicated with the Bank Of England, and were informed that tho noto was involved in the Lind. borgh ransom.
 Since tho hndbergh ransom money was in American bills, tt was assumed hero that tho Bank of England meant tho thousand pound note had been given in ex- change for Amenfcan bills which wore discovered to Do Bono Of the Lindbergh ransom money. (When a note as high as 1000 pounds is given out, on automatic record is usually kept of its number). Tho three men then declared the 1,000 pound note was stolen in Paris and Antwerp police asked for ar | investigation here.
