Nurery Of South
Dedicated in
Honor of Ashe

Thirty million Seeding pine trees
are ready to ship this winter from
the new Ashe National Forest Muir
sery for planting on cut-over lands
in the South, according to the Forest
Service, u. S. Department of Agri-
culture. The Ashe Nursery, one of
the largest in the South, was dedi-
Gated in the De Sofa National Forest,
near Brooklyn, Mississippi, in No
vember. E. E. Carter, chief of the
Division of Timber Management of
the Forest Service, u. S. Department
of Agriculture, represented the Chief
Forester at the dedication. Other
speakers urged cooperation in the
work of restoring the forest wealth
of the South, especially in prevent
ing forest fires.
At the dedication, memorial tab
let was unveiled in honor of the late
William Willard AShe, who was a
senior forest inspector of the Forest
Service and a scientist of recognized
attachments. Descendant from the
family for which Asheville, North
Carolina, was named, Ashe gradual
ed from the University of North
Carolina and from Cornell. He join
ed the State Forestry Department in
his natvive State, and, in 1905, en-
tered the u. S. Forest Service. He
made the irst commercial paintings
of longleaf pine and pioneered many
improved methods in numbering and
turpentining now in use. Ashe also
ranked as leading authority on for
est types of he Southeastern States.
AS botanist he described more than
one hundred new species, chiefly
hawthornes, hickories, and bass
woods. Throughout his 80 years of
work in forestry he emphasized the
need of scientific research for the
advancement of forestry and the
conservation of natural resources.
Most of this years crops Of 10000
900 seedlings at the Ashe Nursery
will be planted on National Forest
lands, of which the government has
already acquired about million

Couple Besieged
by Autograph
Hunters in G. B.

Charles "A. Lindbergh, Americas
self-exiled aviation hero, looked for
ward this week to his second success
sive Christmas day away from his
native land.
It was midnight last December 81
when the flier secretly left the
country with his wife and baby,
Jon Morrow Lindbergh. They were
the only passengers on the freighter
American Importer. They observed
Christmas at sea. Jon had Christ
was at sea. aefshrdl hshmhcmm
mas tree and hung his stocking over
the fireplace in the ships smoking
room.
This year the Lindberghs probably
will spend Christmas either at their
rambling log house at Weald, Ken
fish village south of London, or at
the LANDAU home of Aubrey Neil
Morgan, widowed husband of Mrs.
Lindbergh's sister, Elizabeth, who
died in 1884.
The Lindberghs had been at sea
about 80 hours when the world
learned of their flight from the
country. At first it was believed
they left because Lindbergh feared
his son, now four, would meet the
same fate as his first son, kidnapped
and slain on Sourland mountain, New
Jersey, nearly five years ago.
But it has been learned through
close friends that Lindbergh's chief
reason for leaving was the uncer-
tainty of the execution OF Bruno
Richard Hauptmann, convicted kid
naper of his child, and flood OF
crank" letters and appeals for
Hauptmann.
He has not indicated whether he
plans to return to America. Since
last March he rented his house at
Weald only on a month-to-month
basis. Friends who saw his mother
in-law, Dwight Morrow's widow,
when she returned recently from
England, indicate the Lindberghs
plan to remain abroad indefinitely.
They attempted a secret motor
trip in France late in April, crossing
on a small freighter, but gave it up
after six days when pursued by au-
tograph hunters in coast town.
Lindbergh and Mrs. Ernest Simp-
son dined with King Edward VII
May 81. Mr.. Simpson was also there
and Prime Minister and Mrs. Bald
win.
When the Lindberghs flew to
Germany and Denmark in July in a
hired plane there were scenes with
autograph hunters and admiring
crowds.
