The forest service took the
American desert to mean New
Mexico. Arizona and Nevada, and
didn't pay much attention to the
idea. They figured the task was
beyond human accomplishment.
DUT in July of last year RooSe-
I'D welt was comforting with them
regarding the growing of seed
lings in forestry nurseries, and he
raised the question again. Then
it developed that he was think
ing of the Montana train wreck
and the arid wastes from that
area south to the Gulf of Mexico.
Forest officials replied that 1t
would be impossible to plant trees
from Montana south because OF
the Rocky mountains. but that
column of trees could be planted
through the Dakotas, Nebraska,
Kansas to the gulf. So they made
an estimate on that. The cost,
they found, was prohibitive.
But Roosevelt would not aban-
do1 the project.
This is my baby" he told men,
bers of the forest service.
And he showed that he meant
it. Tree experts we're amazed at
his knowledge. They found that
he had planted many trees with
his own hands on his mothers
HYDE Park estate before his i'll
ness.
Finally Roosevelt worked out a
plan for a strip of trees 100 feet
wide reaching from Canada to
thu gulf. then an open space one
mile wide. then another 100 feet
of trees, then another open mile,
and so on for 100 miles. This
was cheaper than a solid 100-mile
column of trees and accomplished
the same end.
THE result. weather experts
L told him, would not be more
rain. for trees do not make rain.
But the trees will hold snow and
rain. decrease evaporation, let
moisture sink in. Also they will
break the high winds that strip
the surface of the soil like FROST

TO FIND EMPLOYMENT FOR
WOMEN

A move to find employment for
many women has been inaNgurated
by the Civil Works Administration
of Maryland and it is hoped every
county in the State will benefit I'M
der the plan.
DR.. Emma Ward has been named
Director of. Women's Activities and
she has appealed to all CWA work
ers for assistance in finding immedi-
ate projects that might employ
women.
At a recent meeting CT the state,
county and city leaders of the CWA,
DR.. Ward told of her plans and
asked for suggestions. She was
promised the cooperation of repre-
sentatives from the % counties and
it is expected that this will result in
many more women being paced on
the CWA pay roll.
DR.. Ward stated she is seeking
not only the aid of CWA leaders but
also that Of members of various
women's organizations now active in
the counties. In order to speed the
work she asked that each of the
county administrators appoint a
committee of one or more women to
get behind the move.
Several of the counties have al
ready put number of women to
work on clerical positions. Wo-
mems projects such as census work.

takings can be started Immediately,
DR.. Ward stated.
DR.. Ward has requested that any
suggestions as to women's projects
be sent to her Office In the Union

BANK DPOSITS INSURED BUT
NOT BY FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT

While bank deposits are now
guaranteed UP to $4,000 this guar
antee is not made by the Federal
Government as is the general, but
fallacious, belief. The deposits are
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, in which the
Federal government is large stock
holder, and into which the various
banks pay premiums according to
their deposits.
And so while the Federal Govern
ment is. back of the set up which
makes the guarantee possible 1t is
not governmental project and
banks are instructed not TO, and
forbidden to, advertise that the de-
posits are guaranteed by the Fed
eral Government.
Under the new system fear OF loss
or freezing of deposits has been
completely removed from those
whose balances are less than $4,000
in any one bank. And since this
classification covers about 81 per
cent of all bank accounts the danger
of panic or runs on banks is regard
ed as eliminated.
While it is not the Federal Gov
eminent which is guaranteeing the
bank deposits the government, is,
through the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, rapidly assuming pow
err in the banking system of the
country. In more than 5000 banks
the Federal Government, through
the RFC, owns $876,000,G00 in
either preferred stock or capital
notes.
This vast amount of money has
been added to the capital structure
of the banks in question and has
further strengthened their positions
and enabled them to render stronger
and more adequate banking facil-
tiles.

JAPANESE BEETLE TERRITORY

A recent survey of heavily infest-
ed Japanese BEETLE territory in
northern areas of this country show
ed that in commercial orchards,
among apples especially susceptible
to beetle injury, damage amounted
to 43 per cent, or 1923 per acre.
In addition, an average of $7.15 was
spent ON control measures. Re-
search showed that the yield of
peaches was reduced 81 per cent by
the beetle and the average injury
per acre was 1854. More than IS
per acre was spent on control.
In a countrywide survey ON dam
age caused by the Japanese beetle,
it was found that golf courses aver
aged about 1913 per course for con-
troll measures and twenty-nine clubs
reported they had spent over a
period of years more than 100000
for control. Private estates were
shown to- have spent an ave. age of
1913 for spraying, trapping and sod
treatment, while cemeteries, parks,
and community spray organizations
averaged annual expenditures Of
$225 per year.

INTERSTATE MILK PRODUCERS
ASSOCIATION
steps Taken Toward Reorganization
plan Submitted To Board
10 ns..-An..


OF Directors
Philadelphia, Jan. 15--Steps to-
ward recognizing the Interstate
Milk Producers Association were
advanced today by committee of
''middle ground" members of that
organization. The plan was SUBJ
mitted to the Interstate Board of
Directors at meeting in Harris
burg during the Pennsylvania Farm
Show and will ID Immediately fol-
lowed by other steps.
The committee has organized the
Progressive element with the aim
Of developing united front of,
dairymen in the Philadelphia Milk
Shed. The pogram which it has
developed meets the approval of
large number of Interstate mem
bers in Montgomery, Lancaster and
Chester counties in Pennsylvania
and in the states of Delaware and
Maryland. Feelers sent out in
other areas show a decidedly favor
able sentiment. A. X. Rothenberg-
er of Worcester, Montgomery county
and Furman Gyger of Kiniberton,
| Chester county have acted as spokes-
men for the committee.
The plan of reorganization. in
cludes six major points built around
The changing of the Interstate from
stock corporation to member
| ship association, the method of
electi'A directors, and a redlstribu-
ion - responsibilities and duties.
! The proposed changes would put
all responsibility for policy directly
on the directors shoulders. The
changes are:
| First: That the Inter-S ate be
changed from stock basis to
membership basis with each member
having one full vote and that mem
bership be limited to milk produc-
srs only who will automatically lose
their membership when they cease
milk production.
Second: That the present system
| Of electing directors be changed by
| dividing the entire territory into
| districts and that a definite number
of directors be elected in each dis
trict
| Third: That no director shall be
full time employee but should be
paid on per diem basis for services
rendered.
Fourth: That the new manage
ment of the association be made
even more receptive to constructive
suggestions from members and that
such suggestions be put into prac-
lice when favored by majority of
| members.
Fifth That the president of the
Association shall be chairman of the
Board of Directors and an ex-officio
member of the executive committee
| but not chairman of that committee.
1
gage a trained and experienced
general sales manager" who can
meet distributors on even terms and
who shall not be member of the
board of directors.
| If this program is adopted by the
Board of Directors it will be pre-
sented to all candidates for positions
as directors at the postponed annual
meeting. The candidates will be
asked to sign the program as their
platform. Those refusing will not
be endorsed by the Progressive"
element of the Interstate. This
committee is distinctly opposed to
the faction which demands COM
plete overthrow of all officers, point
ing out that such demands compare
to civil revolution.
