A School Forest.
From the Providence Evening Bulletin

From the Providence Evening Bulletin.
What will probably be the first school
forest ever established in Rhode Island
is to become a reality shortly at the
Hitty Corner Elementary School In the
town of West Greenwich.
The chairman of the School Commit
tee is to give to the town between four
and five acres of land adjacent to the
school, the State Forestry Association
is to donate some $500 three-year -old
trees and the pupils of the school, un-
der the direction of an expert forester,
are to plant and care for them.
Title to the forest will rest in the
town, but the School Committee will
be the official sponsor of the project,
and the forest will be maintained in
the coming years by the succeeding
groups of pupils who attend the little
one-room school house.
With the constantly increasing i'm
portance of forestation in this country,
the school forest idea constitutes
practical contribution to rural educa-
tion. Besides stimulating in the young
an interest in an industry that is bound
to occupy a large place in the future
agricultural scheme, the elementary
experience and knowledge that the
children will gain by caring for the
school forest under expert guidance
will be of real value and usefulness to
those of them who are to become the
farmers of tomorrow.
West Greenwich, the smallest town
In the State in population, but one of
the largest in potential forest wealth,
is to be congratulated upon being the
hrst to adopt an idea that sooner or
later seems certain to become o yecog-
nized part Of public education In rural

Success Must Be Relative.

A more realistic attitude toward sue
cess may be needed among the people.
1t must be apparent to every thought
full person that not every one can reach
the topmost heights of fame. that not
every one can win the great and graft
flying victories which are so vastly at
tractive to the imagination. In a
crowded world, where competition is
inordinately keen and where much over
which no individual can have control
is necessary for conspicuous achieve
ment, the majority of humankind must
recognize the fact that success must be
relative.
For example, there are in the United
States today several million boys, who,
theoretically. are qualified to grow up
to be President. Actually, not more
than five or six Of the number can
reach the White House. OF course,
each has the right to strive toward
that honorable goal; each is entitled to
aspire to its elevation. But, failing,
are they to be discouraged? Are they
to feel that because some competitor
has been more fortunate, their own ef-
fort has been utterly vain, waste Of
time and energy? Certainly not! On
the contrary, where hundreds Of thou

Hard Fate of DIR. Spencer
ON the Spokane Spokesman-R Review.

From the spokane Spokesman-Review.
The experience Of DR.. NJ. Lyle Spen-
Ger. president of the University Of
Washington for five and a half years,
Is evidence that high preferment in
education has much of the hazard of
high preferment in politics. The uni
versity president with tenure CT 30
or 40 years is about as rare as the
Congressman who endures that lorg.
In the partisan meaning of the term,
DR.. Spencer's removal may not be at
tributed to politics. But in the broader
meaning he is victim of the politics Of
higher education. The Board of Resents
is constrained to say that ''it wants it
distinctly understood that this accept
ance is not to be construed as a rcflec-
ton upon DR.. Spencer's ability or 10y
atty. 1t simply means that, after care
full study, we are convinced that the
problems with which the university is
confronted are of such nature that no
man at present connected with the
university can successfully work out a
solution"
Observing public judgment will agree
that DR.. Spencer has been able and
loyal and, as the board grants. 'he has
shown fine spirit in recognizing the
situation and in being willing to stem
aside" nevertheless, the beard finds a
situation at the university that. i'm its
judgment, requires this act of inius-
tice = including its refusal to ant

Washington's Tax Rate.

There have been so many occasions
In the past when the local taxpayers
were accused by members of Congress
of lodging taxes and escaping a fair
tax burden, the accusations resting on
the mistaken assumption that because
the tax rate here is relatively low the
tax burden is also low, that a statement
by Chairman Buchanan of the House
Appropriations Committee in the House
yesterday attains especial significance.
1t is clear explanation of the condi-
ton relating to local real estate taxa
ton that should be helpful in clearing
up what at times, has appeared to be
o general misunderstanding.
Mr. Buchanan said:
AS my colleague has said. the tax
rate is Sl.70 on the full valuation OF
real estate. In my home State and in
yours, when property is assessed for
taxation purposes it is assessed at
about so per cent of its fair value and
taxes are paid on that amount. Here
the property is assessed at full value
and the tax rate of Sl.70 is paid on the
full value This is an exorbitant ano
unreasonable tax on real estate in thi'
&&rict There are thousands OF poo

GERS of the Federal Government. To
him President Roosevelt passes on al
large chunk of the dictatorial powers

by Congress"
"The Farm Board has not been able
to do much toward stabilizing prices"
suggests the Oakland Tribune, "buti
who may say what prices would have
been had 1t not been for its opera
tions?" As to the new control, the
Tribune thinks that upon its success

Morgenthau will be able to put into
effect economies which will be as ap-
pealing to the country as to the direc-
tor of the budget" The Hartford
Times wonders why Congresses ever
authorized eight distinctly different and
disconnected Federal agencies to cover
the job of extending credit to farmers"
What Mr.. Roosevelt now puts for-
ward" according to the Newark Eve
ming News, Ito all intents and purposes,
is an agricultural credit reserve system,
modelled upon the Federal Reserve
system, which has brought the ma.
tional banking fabric through the
crisis. 1t looks very much like the
solution of the farm problem, which
goes deeply into all other problems.

people attempting to buy homes In the
District, and for them to be required to
pay $40 per 500 In taxes on valuation
OF these homes the way property would
be assessed In other States Of the Union
is too much.
Let me call attention further to the
fact that there is 100000 in delin-
quent taxes on real estate due the Dis
trict. On what character of real estate? ?
The little homes poor people are trying
70 buy and pay for. Wherever possible
we should encourage people to buy and
pay for homes SO they can have a castle
OF their own. Then they will naturally
be proud of their country.
The tax rate in the District of Co.
lumbia should be reduced from $170
to $3.50 on real estate.
AS Chairman Buchanan pointedly in
dicates. the actual percentage relation
of assessed to true value is as much a
factor to be considered in calculating
the real tax burden as the tax rate
itself. Washington is one of the cities
which get their tax revenue from realty
by applying comparatively low tax
rate to comparatively high assess
ment. The assessment here, the as
SCISSOR has reported, approximates by
less than ten per cent full valuation.
Some other cities with the full-valua-
tion law have actually sssessed as low
as twenty to twenty-five per cent of
full valuation. If a fixed sum is to be
obtained by taxation it makes no diff
ference, if assessment Is uniform in
relation to all properties, whether the
necessary revenue Is raised by . low
tax rate applied to q high assessment
or by high tax rate applied to low
The only method immedi-
ately available Of decreasing the local
realty tax burden is by decreasing the
tax rate, and this should be done. But
in the final equitable readjustment
there should be, in order to make fair
with other cities, lower
ing of the assessment through decrease
in practice of the percentage relation Of
assessed to true value. Decrease in as
sessment is especially necessary in this
period of depression, when market values
Of local real estate have In many cases
sunk far below their assessed value.

the ultimate defeat. The soul grows by
travail quite as much as ever it does
by attainment, and If spiritual devel-
opment Is the proper purpose Of life, Is
philosophers say. the struggle itself Is
Of greater value than the enjoyment Of
the fruits Of the strife.
It has been noticed that what may
be called victory in the case Of one in
dividual rightly may be esteemed .
kind Of defeat in the instance Of an
other. Men are not equally equipped
for success, and more is to be expected
Of those who are favored by circum-
stance than Of those who lack ad-
vantages. One career may begin with
promise Of outstanding worth, yet
close obscurely, while another may
open with no indication Of future
value, yet eliminate in triumph. Sup
posedly, the result for good or i'll lies
within the power Of the individual,
but actually no unrestricted choice Is
possible. People generally are what
conditions permit them to be. They
may make themselves in certain re-
spects, but they are much more apt to
be made by their environment, by the
social pressure around them and by
the social institutions of which they
necessarily are part All Of which goes
to show that It is an error to consti-
tute fetish Of success. Far better
would 1t be If men and women were
content to make principle Of earnest
endeavor.
H. G. Wells long ago wrote q novel
entitled Love and Mr.. Lewisham," the
story Of boy who tried to chart his
future. prepared q schema" for
course of study and professional prog
ress which was to bring him to emf
nence as a member of Parliament or
a cabinet minister. It was q good
plan, an excellent plan, but-instead,
its author fell In love, married and be-
came father. The time came when
he felt dissatisfied with his lot, felt
thwarted and cheated. resented his
failure to abide by his scheme. But
then he began to see that the things
he had done and the person he had
become were really not so pitiful as he
had considered them to be. It was
something Of success just to be a
father. And so in the end he made
his adjustment and was happy again,
happier perhaps than he ever could
have been had he vainly continued to
struggle for place and power. His
story is worth reading. The world is
full Of Mr.. Lewishams, and each Of
them Is success-relatively.
