This is going to be a summer of new stamps. The department over which Mr Farley presides is in for busy season, particularly the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. It must have ready for issu. ance about the 9th of July stamp com. memorating the tercentenary of Wiscon- sin, A reproduction of E W. Deming's painting of Jean Ncolet's landing at Green Bay will most likely be the subject The one-two-and three cent values of the National parks issue are also due early in July. That postpones until late in 1884 the much-discussed presidentials which will replace the present current issue. And, according to C. G. Alton Means, stamp editor of the New Haven Register, the Connecticut tercentenary must be out be- fore January l, 1885. This is real news, as the last intimaton from Washington was that the stamp would not come out unil 1885. And it is news to learn that George Dudley Seymour of New Haven is on the committee choosing design for our stamp. He was responsible for the haf-cent Hale stamp,

The Good Old Wood Lot

A business writer thinks the federal forest conservation work now going for ward in every part of the country is by no means clear gain. He finds activity of an opposite sort in some of the middle-west- ern states. Farmers and lumbermen, he suspects, are destroying existing forest resources as fast as the government is ere. ating new ones. Not only are many farmers again cutting firewood after buy. ing coal for many years," he says, "but the old-fashioned sawmill is again in op- eration, where native oak is being cut for the repairs which farm houses and barns and other farm buildings need worse than ever before"
 There is probably no reason to worry on this score. Good farmers, by this time, have learned to farm their wood lots as thriftily as their corn fields and meadows. Where they are taking out firewood, 1t isn't likely that they are destroying many good humber trees for it. And where they are using up their own oak for re. pair and construction work, they are probably doing that, too, with discretion At the worst, they are not diminishing the total timber supply. The oak would have to come from somewhere. Mean- while they save money and regain some of the proud feeling of self-sufficiency that used to animate their Granddads.

EXPANSION OF

Equipment; "a New
Ships Planned.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, June 3.-The
navy today made plans to expand
its air force to match an extensive
projected ship building program,
which will provide a full treaty
strength sea force by 1889.
49, Speeding up the air program CO.
incides with announcement by Navy
Secretary Claude A. Swanson that
he has approved plans to spend
$90,0OO,O00 this year for building
twenty-four ships and 225 planes.
An earmarked $40,000,Oe0 PWA
fund, as soon as approved by the
senate, will be used to constructors
planes, twelve destroyerS, two de-
Stroyer leaders and six submarines
as the first phase in the five-year
Vinson replacement program au-
thorizing construction of 102 ships
The remaining $50,000,000 will be
applied on three light and one
heavy cruisers, already authorized
in the regular naval appropriations
for the year.
The airplane program is:
/. Completely filling all aircraft

Washington and London treaties as
soon as possible.

planes to supply ships launched
since 1926 and to provide the same
ratio of airplaneS to ships in 1889
as prevailed in 1921.
The 1890 ton aircraft carrier
Ranger was commissioned last Mon
day. Plans have been made to
complete in 1886 two 10000 ton
carriers, the Yorktown and Enter
prise, being built at Newrort News,
Va.
That will allow the United States
one more carrier of $4,000 tons I'M
der the treaties.
Rear Admiral Ernest J. King,
chief of naval aeronautics, said he
hoped to obtain appropriations for
this during 1885.
He said building 225 planes this
year was a big step" toward Sc
curing the desired ratio of planes to
ships. He expects to seek approx
imately 200 planes more in 1886.

NEW YORK, June 8.-The United
States Liner Leviathan, overhauled
at a cost of $150,000 to re-enter
trans Atlantic service, was prepared
today for her first sailing in two
years. She will leave for Europe
Saturday on the first of five round
trips her owners estimate will re-

When last operated in 1882, the
giant liner lost an average of $4,000
each one-way trip. The owners,
figuring it would be cheaper to pay
a $4,000 fine to the government
each trip for not operating her, Sc
cured permission to take the boat
out of service.
This year, under the f1ve-year

Massacre in Mining Town Is Cause of Fear-An
 Sides Condemn Act

Philadelphia. Nov 6-CUP)-- Pennsylvania voted on the "new dear' today under guard of fed- eral, state. county and municipal officers. Alarmed by the massacre at the little mining hamlet of Kel- ayres because of a political feud. the 1856 polls were closely watched. Justice department agents were stationed at many polling places, hundreds of deputy U. &. marshals were hastily sworn in, all state police were ordered on duty and local police departments held reserves in readiness. Law enforce ment officials feared additional fiare-ups as result of the Kel- ayres tragedy in which three were killed and the bitterness of the political campaign.
 Fist fights were reported at wards in south and west Phila- deiphia after balloting had been under way less than three hours. Throughout the state the voting was brisk. A striaght new deal test is involved. In Philadelphia rain kept many away during the first hour but clearing skies brought out thousands to the ballot boxes. Pittsburg reported heavy voting in western Pennsylvania while Harrisburg reported the vot- ing as moderately heavy.
 Leaders of republican and dem- ocratic parties termed the Kelayres slayings as "a terrible outrage. ! Governor Clifford Pinchot said q preliminary investigation indicated the killing of three persons and the wounding of 22 others was due tc racial troubles within the mixed population" of the small village Attorney General William A Schnader, republican nominee foi governor. announced he would o.- der a thorough investigation by the the state.
