u. 5. Interests in France
Beinq Protected, Hull Soys

Secretary of State Hull said today
that United States representatives
at Vichy were authorized to do
everything they believed necessary
in protecting American interests in
France, but that he did not know
whether any formal protest had
been made to the Vichy government
against the wholesale arrest of
American citizens in Occupied
France.
Mr.. Hull was asked at a press
conference about press reports that
S. Pinkney Tuck, American charge
d'affaires at Vichy, had protested
against the arrest. He explained
that while he knew Mr.. Tuck was
busy trying to assemble full infor-
nation about the nature of the ar
rest, he had not been informed yet
as to the details of his activities.
The Secretary pointed out that
American diplomatic representatives
always are authorized to make pro-
tests for the record in situations
that might be taken up more fully
and In more permanent fashion by
the Government later.
Obtaining specific information
about what actually is happening to
Americans in Nazi-occupied France
is very difficult and slow. Mr.. Hull
explained.
Meanwhile, French Ambassador
CASTOR Henry Haye, denied reports
that French police had participated
in the arrest of the Americans in the
occupied zone of France.
He described these reports as
false rumors obviously aiming al
sggraysting Franco American rela-

The owners Of large areas Of valuable

tons and cooperate with the federal
and state governments to eliminate
devastation of the forests by fire.
More than so percent of the fires
are man-caused and can be prevented.
In 1919. more than 100000 acres were
burned over in Montana and northern
Idaho. resulting in a total damage of
SIS, 900 900. A remedy for this appalling
waste cannot be accomplished without
the full and earnest cooperation of
the public whereby all man-caused
fires will be eliminated through dill

1911 Hog Production
Highest in 10 Years

With $4,000 pigs produced in 1871.
Montana's hog production reached the
highest level since 1881 when the total
was $4,000 head, according to the
United States department of agricul-
lures agricultural marketing service.
The l94l combined spring and fall pig
crop was percent larger than in
1910 and % percent over the 1O-year

Continued expansion of hog produce

growers which show intentions of in
creasing next springs borrowings of
sows 48 percent to 10000 head COM
pared with 27,0O0 head narrowed in
the spring of 1910.
This present trend Is in line with
that of the nation as a whole. where
in response to both a favorable price
ratio for hog production and the Sec
retary's appeal to producers for In

tional production and supply of hogs
promises to materially exceed all previ-

Can Montana Afford to Burn Prosperity?

The absolute necessity for forest
protection is very clearly shown by
the fact that $4,000 or more forest fires
occur In the United States each year,
causing an annual loss Of millions of
dollars.
The vast timber areas Of Montana
occupy a third Of the state. Timber
resources Of the state stand third in
importance. being excelled only by the
agricultural and mineral resources.
Montanas forests can be made to
provide for all needs. and TO insure
timber for all development work Of
the state. The forests of Montana full
fill other very important functions in
the economic and industrial program,
namely: watershed protection for ir-
rigation and power, refugees for game,
and recreational attractions for the
tourist and pleasure seeker.
To state whose greatest resource
is its agricultural land, watershed
protection and regulation of stream
flow is of more Importance than most
people realize. Few need to be remind
ed that the prosperity of Montana is
dependent largely upon an adequate
supply of water for irrigation Water,
rather than land, is the problem for
agricultural development for a con-
siderable portion of the state. 1t Is
fortunate that the forest acts as
great storage reservoir, holding the
snow late in the spring and checking
the waterflow, allowing 1t to permeate
the soil, later to furnish our streams
with q continuous supply Of water
which is needed for the development
Of successful crops.
Montana need not base her claim
to the title of the Treasure state" on
the magic metals alone, for which she
Is famous Once she can turn the water
from her forested mountains on the
broad thirsty acres Of her plains, her
wealth will be unlimited.
The end of the eastern timber re-
sources Is In sight. In the Lake and
central states, empty houses, sawdust
piles and blackened wastes are the
markers left by the despoilers The
shipment of timber from the west to
the east has been steadily increasing
for the last 10 years. In another dec
ade most Of the important wood-using
industries Of the United States will
have moved west. One-half Of the re-
naming timber Is In the three Pacific
coast states. The paper mills are in
the vanguard and many eastern con-
Germs are seeking for suitable locations
in the west. There is ample pulp ma
terial for Montana's printing industry
and to spare. In addition there is
abundant waterpower to run the wheels
Of this industry.
