NOTHING FOR CHARITY

When our government was consider
ing resumption of specie payment after the
Civil War, Sherman is credited with say
ing that the only way to resume is to re-
sumo. That applies now. Everywhere the
prevalent thought seems to be, What can
| do to cut down? Whom can 1 fire? and
SO on.
Commenting on the statement that
investment and employment are cheaper
than charity F. " Keesling, attorney of
San Francisco, says: Unless there be
continuous investment and employment,
there will be nothing for charity ST
There is an unfortunate attitude
among the people. For instance, at the
golf links the other day one of the mem
bers decried the fact that there were Sew
eral men employed in planting trees.
When he was told that it seemed to be
highly desirable thing under the conditions,
so long as the club could afford it,
clearer vision gave him proper reaction"
You can't pile up public debts, in
crease taxes, discourage industry and
create unemployment, without destroying
the capital and earning power of the
nation.
This destructive process has been go
ing on for three years. No good fairy is
coming out of the clouds and create en-
ployment. The people are going to have
to create it for themselves. The good
fairy will be their own desire to do some
thing
Every day that those of us who can
afford to, delay in furnishing employment
for needed and necessary work, our ma
tional wealth is reduced, taxes are in
creased for charitable enterprises and the
day draws nearer when there will be Moth
ing left to give for charity, and govern
ment itself will face bankruptcy through
inability to collect taxes There are mil
lions of individuals and industries whose
premises are sadly in need of repairs. The
time to do that work is now Delay is ex-
pensive "economizing.

SLASH PINE PAPER

Experiments which have been in pro-
gress for several years have finally re-
suited in the production of first-class news
print paper from southern slash pine, the
latest developments representing a revolu-
tionary discovery in paper-making.
Such is the assertion of DR.. Charles
H. Herty, former president of the Amer
lean Chemical Society, who has been a
pioneer in the researches leading to the
recently announced result. Paper has
been made from slash pine before, but
the latest product is the first to meet all
the requirements of standard newsprint,
and even exceed them.
Perhaps the most sensational fact
about the new product is its strength and
light weight 1t has burst strength of
10 to IL pounds to the square inch, cons
pared with only six to 10 pounds for usual
grades of newsprint, in addition to being
somewhat lighter in weight.
Another advantage in using slash
pine is seen in the fact that by a new
method of cultivation discovered by 20
year-old Georgia farm boy, Marion Rem
froe, trees of sufficient size for paper
making can be grown in seven years,
whereas the average age of Canadian
spruce trees now generally used is 90
years
The fact that two-thirds of the print
paper used by American newspapers is
now imported, chiefly from Canada, in
dicates the possibilities of developing a
great paper industry in the south. These
possibilities should fit in admirably with
