Franconia, N H.. Sept An address by Colonel Henry 5. Graves at Inc iiifty-elghth annual meeting of the American Forestry association, Franconia, New Hamp- shire, Septcmber 6 to 8. will mark a significant note on the program. His subject. Public and Private Forests in New England" will give those attending the meeting the benefit of his experience and inti- mate understanding of the value of forestry practice on private and public timber lands. Colonel Graves, dean of tho Yale Forest school at New Haven, and recent ly provost of Yale university. is q fellow in the Society of American Foresters and is recognized lead CT of forestry and conservation thought in America.
 Colonel Graves seryei in France with the forest engineers and was chief forester of the United states forest service from 19J0 to 1920. He was president of tn, American Forestry association iB 1923 and has been on its board cf directors continuously since that time, talk ing a vigorous part in charting the association's policies and actions.
 Authorized by the Weeks act signed in 1911, Colonel Graves was responsible for the first land puN- chases of the White Mountain na- tionaI forest, which now. com prises over 550.000 scres. The American Forestry association took leading part in building public sentiment which resulted in the passage of the Weeks act. Later under the Clarke-McNary act of 1924 the purchase rolicy was broadened and federal cooperation was provided for the protection of state and privately owned lands. This is now participated in by more than forty states.
 Other forestry and conservation measures of national importance in which the American Forestry association has participated are the McNary- act which establishes foundat ions for a, nu ? tion-wide plan of forest research. and the federal p,igratory bird act under which arens in various parts of the country ore being purchased as resting and breeding places for migratory will fowl. The associa- ton has also contributed 10 pub. lie apprecie ion Of the national parks, and supports the work of the state foresters. Public senii' ment which led to creating the civilian conservation camps, now proyid'Ag constructive outdoor worb for more than 3o0,oop younR meE, was started more than two years ago by the ,AmerieaB Fer' estry association.

The 200 detectiong, however, do not mean 200 arrests. First offenders were invariably released after being questioned and after their confess sions had been committed to writ ing and signed. And some cases were treated with sympathetic understanding by the merchants of Waterbury. who have come to dis. tlnRulSn DetWeen tne Hullcious thief and the person who steals for q thrill or some urge that psychologists have q word for.
 Outstanding among Mss south ern's capture was that of Mickey Schwartz, well >known narcotic peddler. Schwartz was captured in New York city only last week and turned over to the New Haven authorities. It was alleged that he was the leader of the gang, which had been smuggling dope Into the. prisoners of the county jail. It was hard blow to Mickey's pride when n slender woman tap- ped him on the shoulder as he left Il department store and invited him to the managers office.

 Very few changes are proposed in the list of polling places to be offered to the aldermen. The list has been set up by the registrars of voters and the special commit tee of the aldermanic board ap- pointed at the last regular session of that body.
