A march to the National Parks

May Defy Choppers
So determined are Washington's
citizens that the internationally

cherry blossom time shall not be
destroyed that women have volun-
teered to take position at the
bases of the doomed trees and defy
the workmen to chop if all other

WILSON READY
TO Leave WITH
NAzI REPORT.
IReich Press Scores
British Cruelty
BY PIERRE J. HUSS

BERLIN, Nov. Is GN.SO.
United States Ambassador Hugh
R. Wilson will depart from Berlin
tomorrow night en- route to Wash
ington to report to the American
government on the anti-Jewish
demonstrations and measures in
Germany.
Summoned home for "consulta-
tions," the envoy will leave the
German capital aboard the North
Express tomorrow evening and
will sail Thursday from LIE Havre
aboard the liner Manhattan.
Disclosure of the ambassador S
immediate plans came as the Nazi
press laShed at critics of the anti
Jewish laws and accused Great
Britain of developing its empire
in oceans of blood"
Won't Visit London
Upon receiving instructions from
Secretary of State Hull, Wilson
abandoned his previous intention
of visiting London before proceed
ing to Washington, and will go
directly to the American capital.
Before leaving Berlin, Wilson
will have a final conference with
German authorities regarding the
Jewish and Catholic questions.
AS far as can be established,
the envoy is entirely in the dark
as to whether his summons home
will be merely temporary. or
whether it will go beyond the last
Washington statement-in which
event, he might not return to Ber-
lin.
His Own Observations
His report to Washington Of
ficials is expected to consist largely
of verbal statements and first
hand observations of incidents
through which he will develop the
entire situation.
1t is understood that one of the
main points particularly inter
esting Washington is a desire to
establish, as far as possible, ex-
actly who among the Nazi high
officials was responsible for the
which occurred last
week.
But into the picture will be
brought a review of the entire field
Of German-American relations.
Ambassador Wilson's residence
in the suburb of Dahle.n will be
closed during his absence. The
embassy will be con-
trolled by PrentiSs Gilbert, the
charge d'affaires.

A month ago the spread was 20 per
cent. And remember, that retail prices
are now six per cent less than their
1887 high. Hence, unit sales are not
more than. eight per cent lower than
year ago.
7. Commodity and security prices
are at a level where they are attract
ing the attention of genuine purchas-
ers. Stocks of selected, well-managed
companies are on the bargain counter.
Bond prices have lost all they gained
in 1896 and 1887. Raw materials are
cheap. 3u4'-
8. Bank deposits3he first Indicator
to start downward a year ago-have
been expanding since early Decem-
ber. Moreover, last year at this time
the administration was tightening
credit to prevent a "boom." Today it
is doing everything in it's power to
make credit extra-easy.
Spring Outlook More Cheerful.
AS result of these indications, the
President lis apparently convinced
that now is the time to aid the mod
est natural improvement by vigorous
pump-prining. His gigantic spending
plan will stimulate business over the
near term. While the skies have by
no means suddenly cleared by the de-
velopments of the past two weeks, the
outlook is better today than a month
ago. We have had periods of bad bus
mess before. Each time when condi-
tions looked the worst we were right
on bottom. Just as Winter inevitably
turns into Spring: so bad times in
evitably turn into good times. This
has never ,failed----,and doubt if it
ever will. &
I am convinced that before the year
is over, New York sentiment will BE-
far different than it is today. The
stock market will again be boiling
Wall Street. will again. be as sure that
depressions are. over as today it is
icOnvinced that the end of the world
.is in sight When a man is flat on
his back, there is only one way he
can look-that is upward.

In fact, it will be Surprising if the

Where an anti-~4ev7 Deal Democrat

their ballots for the Democratic anti

perhaps on the G.. o. P.'s nominee.
Something like this was hinted at

brought a dip to new lows pa per
cent below year ago. But even at
the quietest point-a month ago-bus-
iness was off only four per cent from
January So, my forecast at New
Years time of poor first quarter
(but not much worse than current
levels)" has been borne out! Now,
what about the Spring upturn which
I thought would take place?
Trade reports of the last few weeks
show that business is gradually swing
ing bottom. Whether the corner has
teen turned definitely or not, no one,
of course, can yet say. But the cur
rent halting of the downtrend is en-
couraging and may we'll mark the be-
ginning of a real business revival.
Certainly if the President is to avoid
severe defeats in the fall congression-
al elections, good business must re-
turn not later than September Every
day that people continue in the pres
ent mood actually means that he is
sinking deeper into the mire.
Barometers Making the Turn.
The President, however, is cheered
by the following summary of leading
barometers:
IS 1. Steel operations have improved
since the December low of 10 per cent
of capacity. They are now above 80
per cent, based almost entirely on bus
mess from miscellaneous sources. suck
as machine tools, tin containers, and
the like, rather than from the major
customers automobiles and rail
:OadS
2. Building is making progress. The
new F. H. A. rules have stimulated
great interest in homes. Material
prices have dipped and. if labor costs
also come down, home-building this
Spring may even beat out the 1887
figures. s.
3. Power consumption, very seil
sitive index of business activity in
this electrical age, hit low in late
March and is now slowly pushing a
head. The gap between the 1887 and
1898 figures has been gradually mar
rowing.
4. Cotton textile activity has see,l
sluggish for a month but it is now
resuming the rise which started ear
lier in the year. Diminishing inven-
tories all along the line have forced
orders back to the mills. Mill activity
IS 10 per cent above the low.
Auto Assemblies Higher.
5. Automobile output is running
several thousand cars higher eacl,
week than a month ago. The manu-
facturers' policy of restricted ouput,
plus a seasonal upturns in retail sales,
have now speeded-up the assembly
lines. A price cut, however, would be
the best tonic for this industry right
now.
6. Retail trade, due to the late Eas-
ter, is running less than 10 per cent
under last years post-Easter figures

Nebraska appropriately observes
Arbor Day every year on the same

For Morton was Nebraska news
paper editor who foresaw years be-
lore anybody else the inevitable
lrouths, dust storms, eroded acres and
such that must follow if all the
vests trees were cut down and all it's
sod plowed under. He originated the
dea of an Arbor Day, and, as State
Secretary of Agriculture, he persuaded
he legislature to put it in the calen-
dar in 1872.
The idea spread to other States be-
sore the Nebraska legislature in 1885
made April % legal holiday Morton
was given the opportunity to extend
it himself when he was made Secre-
sary of Agriculture by President
Cleveland.
Morton could be called the Father
of Conservation" for his unselfish en-
deavors did not stop with forestry.
lie preached the necessity of provid-
ing for elimination of waste of the
nations natural resources.
His ends, which he sought without
advantage to himself, were never easy
20 attain. The way of the conserva-
tive is ever hard. Consider any ad-
vocate of economy today. Morton was
constantly fought by private interests
seeking to exploit resources quickly
with the greatest profit to them
selves and without thought of the
braska legislature by these interests.
