KETCHIKAN URGES EMERGENCY
 LEGISLATION.

Visioning in Japanese competition ruin for the Alaska salmon packers and consequent disaster to not only the Territorial Government, which receives a major portion of its revenues from taxes on the salmon industry, but also to the communities in Alaska that largely dependent upon the industry for employment of labor, the Ketchikan Chamber of Commerce recently adopted resolution urging Congress pass emergency legislation to protect the canners Depreciation of Japanese currency makes possible for Japanese pink salmon to be delivered on the American market cheaper than the local packers can produce the same product.
 Delegate Elect Dimond, while in Seattle, declared it is imperative that Congress act without delay. He will urge Western delegations to Congress to unite in an effort to obtain some measure that will insure relief.
 Concluding it's resolution, the First City Chamber of Commerce declared:
 Unless local canners of canned salmon
 receive some assurance that their 1883
 product be marketed at a price suf-
 ficent to pay operating costs many all
 of these plants will be forced to remain
 closed and instead of only 912 people being
 objects of charity in this community, that
 number will be doubled We urge emer-
 gency legislation asking only that the
 competitive status prevailing prior to the
 injection of the depreciated currency ele-
 ment be restored.
 Recenlly the DSInOcratc leaQerSnlp III congress decided to take no action on pending measures for protection of American industries from imports from countries having depreciated currencies It did not however indicate it was actually opposed to such steps. However, it felt that it would not be sound policy to act on this phase of the international trade problem it might handicap the Roosevelt Administration in it's proposed international trade conferences seeking to overcome the evils brought about by high tariffs of many countries.
 The Ketchikan plea however, is timely. Other communities might follow its leadership in the hope that united front may achieve the relief that the so desperately need

New York Alone!
(New York Times.)

It was bound to come. The people of this State are now invited in the matter of vegetables to Buy New York" They must not stand idly by and the canning industries of the State driven out of business by "out-of-State cheapy canned, inferior quality fruits and vegetables" That. at least, is the position taken by certain canning interests in the western part of the State and The Canadaigua Tmes-Journal has found much support for the proposal that State products be labeled Grown in New York State" The next step will be, presumably, Buy Southern Tier" movement to be countered by Finger Lakes Alliance and a Delaware Watershed Union"
 The logical culmination of self-contained New York vegetables will day when little boy pushes back the grocer's counter and says, Mister by mother says she doesn't want these New York peas because she says the blow that turned up the soil where they grew made in Indiana, and she says the fertilizer came from Chile and they were cooked over fire of Penn gylsanaa coal by lady born in Sweden; and mother says the steel from which the is made was made in Pennsylvania, and the tin comes from BoDYa and the label was printed in Wisconsin on wood pulp from Maine, and 1t sodered with stuff from Missouri and delivered to you by a truck made in Detroit. And mother asks what do you mean trying to pass off foreign stuff on her?"

 She colored deeply.
 Not what I was stupid enough to offer you before," she murmer- ed. T didn't mean to offer you bribe."
 What, then?" And as she was silent. "A consolation prize?" T suppose-yes, it would be that"
 But I don't need consolation, yet. My year isn't up. At the end of my year I shall claim your love. Why should I be impatient now and take your pity?"
 She closed her eyes and he saw the tears slip out from under the lids and lie upon her face. I'm not defending myself" Ar mitage went on. "As long as Mark doesn't want you, you'll think you love him. Very well; he shall be made to love you"

LARGE AREAS REVERT TO FORESTS
 IN UNITED STATES.

The of forest land in the United States has increased about 33,00000O acres, or than per cent, since 1920, United States Forest Service estimates indicate. Reversion of cultivated and pas ture lands to forest is largely responsible for the increase.
 recent study of existing information on forest places the commercial forest area at 496 000- 900 Of this total, however only about three eighths bears saw timber; one-fourth bears trees of cordwood size, and the remaining three-eghths varies from fully stocked areas of young growth to land practically bare
 Sixty million acres of forest land have been SO denuded by numbering and fire that they are not restocking and will not again become productive without artificial assistance over long period of years Abandoned farms, reverted pastures, and cut-over forest lands on which owners have been unwilling or unable to pay taxes are accumulatng much faster than the facilities for planting them to good tree stands Most of this land has com mercial timber potentiaes, if good forest manage ment and artificial planting can be supplied.
 The estimate of commercial forest area does not include about 10000000 acres withdrawn from tim Der cutting for recreational and other public uses nor does it include about loo0oo0oo acres of low grade woodland and scrub of little no value for production of saw timber, although much of it is valuable for watershed protection.

 Come along now" he said quiet ly T can't let you catch cold"
 She was standing very still, her face upturned to his. His hands were clumsy at their task.
 T mean it when say that Mark and I quarrelled. We really quar- relied. We differed absolutely and fundamentally about thing that matters. Marriage. And so I am not going to marry him, ever, whatever he grows to be-"
 The clumsiness dropped from his hands. As he gripped her she winced, and he loosened his hold a little. He felt her shake her head.
 There's still something want to tell you. It's strange you should have found me here just now, be- cause I've been thinking all day that I could say it here by the sea, in this mood, and perhaps nowhere else"
 What is it, Barbara? What have you to say?"

sIX-YEAR PRESIDENTIAL TERM.

Consideration of a single, six-year term for the President the United States tentatively discussed several years ago, may be revived in Congress dur
 ing the Roosevelt Administration. This was indl- cated recently in Washington by Senator Key Pittman, Democrat who advocates the adoption of an amendment to the Constitution to that end. He regards this step logical sequence to the lame duck" amendment recently ratified. His views are said to be representative of considerable body of members of Congress both Democrats and Repub- licans
 Commenting on the subject Senator Pittman declared: T think the question of one-term Presi- dents, with about six years in office should be settled, and settled Quick ratification of the lame duck amendment demonstrated that the people are awake to the need for reform and should not be surprised to the next step accomplished within two years" The movement for such a project will not be started, however without consultation with MT Roosevelt This probably will not at any early date as he will be too busily engaged with major problems for a while to take up extraneous matters even though they be as important as the change of the present Presidential tenure of office Should it be decided to make the change, Congress could not do it it's initiative It involves amending the Constitution and a resolution for it would to be submitted to the States ratified by three fourths of them before becoming effective

 He stared down at her stupe- fled. The moonlight was strength ening upon the rocks. It showed him the creamy edge of the wa ters; the waves-he seemed un- able to think clearly about them but the waves were very nearly up to the tidemark.
 You have done so much for Mark" said her low, unhappy coice in the dark You have toiled for him and endured him, and it isn't fair you should have nothing for it. So, if you still"
 A wave, skipping over ledge, sent stinging spray over them both. Armitage felt as though it had gone right through him, through the heat and fever of him, through the insane, primitive desire to lift and carry her away.
 But I shall have to carry you" he said aloud, the stinging spray on his face, the stinging cold in his brain. We've been here too long"
 We aren't cut off -< ~ tide?"
 Not yet, but this sand isn't firm any more. You're standing in water, as it is"
 He picked her up boldly, and turned back towards the road. A lantern bobbed uncertainty up and down in that direction and he made towards it.
 I'm too heavy" she protested.
 I've carried you before" he said, half to himself. Presently he asked, almost casually = Put your arm round my neck, will you? You'll feel safer"
 He stopped at last and let her slip to the ground. The lantef Tn was bobbing towards them.
 'IS the lady there, sir? Tides comin' in fast"
 Yes, the lady is here. She is all right"
 The lantern preceded them to the Devalet, hesitated, bobbed and finally retreated. Armitage turned on the light in the roof of the car and turned, holding out hand. She took it like a docile child.

 He stopped and looked up at her.

idge School. Both were authorized at
the same time.
