mey of the Yale School of Forestry. This camp wood is the kind of ma terial which usually goes to waste in our Connecticut forests. The Forestry Department has estimated that about 300,0OO cords of wood rot on the ground in Connecticut every year. Included in the total cut of the Mohawk forest has been 260000 board feet of lumber sewed in the state saw mill and used for structures built by the c. c. c. Be- sides the 2249 acres of hardwood forest thinned by the c. c. c. Mo- hawk forest now has 801 acres of evergreen plantations, partly made by the Camp and partly planted before the Camp was established, The oldest plantation made by a previous owner, MT. Seymour Cum ningham, dates back to 1915 and is now in splendid condition having been thinned and pruned by the c. c. c.
 MT. Hawes points out that many other improvements in the forest have been made by the c. c. c. in- cluding 10 miles of road built which make every section of the forest &C., cessible for recreation, for fire pro- lection, and the removal of products. AS a fire protection measure all boundaries have been cut out and 34 water holes have been constructed each capable of furnishing 7500 gall Ions of water in case of fire. A steel fire tower has replaced the old wooden tower on the mountain. By constant vigilence on the part of the forest officers this forest has been entirely free from fire damage during the eighteen years of state ownership. Most of the Mohawk Forest was given to the state by the White Memorial Foundation of Litchfield.
 Among the improvements the re- pair of three old farm houses has been valuable asset in the admin istration of the forest and the camp One is occupied by Ranger Hubert Hubbell, who has charge of the for est and two are occupied by officials of the camp. Other structures built include a warehouse, saw mill shed and lumber storage shed and ma chine shop. Signs for all state forests are made here by the boys.
 Among the recreational develop ments built by the camp are 57 fire places, Ill tables, and the sanitary and water arrangements essential to picnic areas. Last summer about 13,- 900 people enjoyed these facilities Four open shelters are also availa- ble for overnight camping. These are used mostly by hikers over the long trail which extends from Maine to Georgia and passes through this forest. Mohawk is also becoming a winter sport center because of the excellent ski trail constructed by the camp.
 AS Mohawk is the first state forest to be improved, it is also the first to be placed under ten year work ing plan. According to District For ester Parker. the author of the plan the forest should now be Self-Sup- porting since its obligation to the government has been met. The plan contemplates the annual removal of about one-half the estimated growth, or 7O5 cords. An equal amount will be left to accumulate for the improvement of the forest.

PROMPT BILL
 PAYMENT AIDS City Saved $5,604.46 By Taking Advantage of
 Discounts

Prompt payment of bills which al- lowed the securing of discounts al- lowed the city to save a total of $5, ,604.46 during the first 10 months of the year, Controller Thomas M. Conlon said today. Total savings by the end of the year are expected to amount to between $6,5O0 and $7,000.
 Savings by taking advantage of discounts have averaged close to $500 a month, according to Edward Butler, assistant to Budget Director Thorvald E. Olsen.
 To secure discounts, usually 2 per cent or payment of bills within 30 days, the schedule of board meet ings was changed at the start of the year. In addition, a number of Spe- cial meetings have been held when regular meetings would come too late for approval to be voted in time to make payment within the discount period.
 The discount savings have been particularly large in street depart ment purchases of cement, asphalt and other construction materials. In making purchases, Director of Pur- chases Martin J. Sweeney has been able to induce many firms not or dinarily offering discounts to give them to the city for prompt payment of bills.

 Fulfills Obligations
State Reimburses Federal Government One=E1alf Re-
 ceipts for Forest Products Cut

The Mohawk State Forest in Cornwall and Goshen is the first forest in United States according to State Forester Hawes to fulfill its obligations to the Federal Govern ment under the c. c. c. stipulations When the camps were established in 1883 Governor Cross agreed that the State would reimburse the Fed- eral Government one-half the re- ceipts for forest products cut by the c. c. c. up to $3.000 an acre for the area improved. The Mohawk Forest of 3100 acres has now had some form of treatment over it's while area and when the State makes its semi-annual settlement with the Government on December 31st, next, the payment into the U. s. Treasury of $9,300 on this forest will be com- pleted. During the seven years the State has sold products cut by c. C. c. from this forest amounting to $18, 500.
 Altogether 10,80O cords have been cut including about $500 cords of second-class wood used to heat Camp Tourney which is located in the forest. The camp was named for the late Professor James Tou-

agreed to let the British take prior delivery on 26 four -engined Consoli- dated bonbers in exchange for enough engines to power fl Boeing flying fortreSses" which lack en- zines; negotiations are being con- cluded to release 20 of the latest type flying fortresses".
 Other British Help
 Other laid to Britain" steps:
 l. Fifty over-age Navy deStroyers were exchanged for long term leases on bases in British possessions.
 2. Fifty Navy dive bornbers were declared obsolete and sold to the British.
 3. World War Enfield rifles, artil- lery, mortars, munitions and other war materials were declared surplus after the Flanders debacle and sold to the British.
 4. The Sperry bombsight, consid- cred highly accurate but not as good as the secret Norden sight, was re- leased for British use.
 5. The government permitted the British to acquire Shipbuilding fa- cilities for the construction ot freighters.
 6. About 100 obsolete World War tanks for training purposes were sold to Canada.
 Indirectly the British are being aided by treasury orders freezing the wealth in this country of the nations conquered or wholly domi- mated by Germany; the U. S.-Cana- da Joint Defense Pact; by the Neu- trality Patrol.
 Officials said the American planes received by the British may be higher than export figures indicate During the months ended October 31, the United States exported 42l planes to Canada, presumably for Canadian use. Some probably went to Britain.
 2,5OO Are Battling
 London, December 3. = (UP) - An estimated 2,5OO United States built aircraft of all types have already been delivered here and are taking part in the battle of Britain.
 Of the 2,500 planes, nearly half are Harvard Trainer Non-C Combat ships
 The British generally praise the quality and performance of Ameri- can planes, but except for the Lock- heed Hudsons, whose merits fre- quently are mentioned in communi- ques, official silence is maintained about the performance of the types in service here.

implement of war most needed by the British. Defense officials con- ceded that this was correct but were confident 1941 would find the pro- duction of aircraft markedly in- creased.
 Exact figures on the number of aircraft being turned out for Bri- tain are not available but statistics prepared by the Commerce Depart ment indicate that estimates of from 300 to 400 planes a month are excessive.
 The Commerce Departments fig ures, which defense officials say are accurate, showed that in the year ended October 31 only 1,044 planes were exported to the United King dom. Officials profess not to know how many of these actually reached their destination. Some were flown over from Canada, others were car ried by ships from American and Canadian ports.
 Remove Obstacles
 The administration has taken several steps in the last year to remove obstacles impeding British acquisition of aircraft. In the fall of 1939. the Army waived prior de- livery in favor of Great Britain for about 1000 planes; last month Pres ident Roosevelt established a 5O-50 rule of thumb giving the British at least half of armament production facilities; the defense priorities committee permitted placement of British orders for l2,000 airplanes in addition to similar number previ- ously contracted for; the Army has
