WASHINGTON, March 15-Pres- ident Roosevelt today in "a special message, asked Congress to set up a Joint Committee to study the for est land problem with view of taking definite action at the next session to check using up of our forest resources without replace ment."
 The President said that with some exceptions most of the states, com munities and private companies had accomplished little toward for est conservation. This being so, it seems obviously necessary to fall back on the last defensive line of Federal leadership and Federal &C., tion," the President said in his message.

most of which are given their force
by those lads who prowl the slums.
This time it is again Billy Halop
who carries most of the burden of the
story a task which he does with con-
siderable ease. He is cast as a boy
who sees his father "railroaded" to
the electric chair, who is forced with
his mother and sister to move to the
cheap slum neighborhood and who
becomes embroiled in a life of petty
crime. In the end he and the other
Dead End boys go to reform school
again, this one apparently pretty
nice place. the sort of reform school
for which Warner Bros. and Columbia
have been campaigning.
There's material for some pretty
stiff dramatics in this tale of a lad
who has been dealt low hand by life

Change InLaw
Concerning Crops
Is Now Predicted
Results Of Farmers Vote Are
Expected To Influence
New Congress.
CONTROL PLAN DEAD

Whether or not the, government
will continue to control farm pro-
duction in order to maintain high
price levels, will be a question
of Importance before Congress
when it convenes in January.
A press report from Washing
ton reveals that farmer rejection
of new deal marketing controls
for next years hurley and dark
type tobacco crops led many
members of congress to predict
that the present farm law would
most likely be changed.
The tobacco marketing quotas
were rejected in voting conduct
ed among the growers Saturday.
Their defeat gave the agriculture
department a score of four losses
and but one victory in referenda
on sales controls for 1889 crops.
In similar elections conducted the
preceding Saturday, growers OF
aue-cured tobacco and rice re-
jected quotas and cotton farmers
approved them.
Congressional leaders general
ly agreed that the referenda
would have a strong influence on
the attitude the new congress
takes toward the farm problem
and existing legislation, but
opinion varied as to what action
the lawmakers would take.
Senator Borah r., Idaho), de-
clared the quota reflections had
helped sound a death knell for
the administrations theory that
farm prices and income can best
be maintained at fair levels by
means of governmental control
of production ad marketing when
price-depressing supplies accum-
ulate.
'The idea of production control
is dead" Borah said.
