forests not growing enough to replace the cut ting The timber cut destroyed by fire in l943 was 50 per cent more than the total growth.
 Statistics plainly indicate that forest conservation is important national problem Experts estimate that when the Pilgrims landed on Cape Cod the country had 822 million of virgin timber, about 43 per cent of the land The figure is approxi mately $50 million acres today of which about 462 million acres are commercial forest land However, some 77 million acres are practically nonproductve because of fire or destructive cutting in recent years About 100 million acres are labeled "cutover" land and are producing only fraction of their possible capacity.
 Two facts of primary importance: First, tim Der must be cut to help win the war. The demands are great and much more cutting will be necessary to serve the armed and provide for essential civilian uses Second, plans should be made i'm mediately the repanting of suitable areas, for increasing community State and national forests, and for an intensified educational campaign to help farm woodlot owners handle their timber land more eff ciently The l96 million acres in public ownership can be increased for public benefit There com paratively few community forests in the nation yet since the first one was started in Newington, N. H.. in 19l7 they have proved financial assets
 The present situation serious one. Basic Federal and State legislation plus the realization that in normal times lumber is a crop to be planted and harvested will help to restore the nations forest resources.
 More rigid conservation in the States, however, could mean the development of part of Alaskas vast timber resources, once the Interior Department has decided who owns what land so that potential investors may go ahead with plans.

HOROSCOPE E "The stdrs incline
 bat do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 8

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 8
 Uncertain planetary influences rule today, fortunate for women and disturbing for men. Press re- leases are under adverse aspects.
 HEART AND HOME: Under this configuration romance should flour ish. Girls may count this lucky date for engagements or weddings. It is suspicious for informal hos pitality but avoidance of prema- ture celebration of election victories is best. Final returns will be long delayed.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Again as- trologers counsel the utmost care in spending, for inevitably thrift will be necessary while postwar business dislocations are readjusted. A brisk Christmas trade is forecast. Useful gifts should be chosen but jewellers will profit greatly this year.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Warning is given of subtle propaganda, in- direct in it's suggestions. Innuen- does as to Russian aims, our rela- tions with Britain and our future ambitions in world commerce will be introduced more and more in press and radio, it is forecast.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR s:
 Gen. Charles de Gaulle, born in November, 1890, comes under splen- did aspects of Jupiter and should benefit greatly by the end of the year. The seers declare that he has reason to guard against deception and double-dealing. He is to re- joice over his part in the restora- ton of France as leading nation.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of good fortune. Scientific and literary ef- forts will be profitable.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will have successful careers but should be taught to curb ex- travagance.

Committee. The final decision will not be up to him alone, for the whole thing will be threshed out at the CIO national convention in Chicago November 20. But not waiting for the convention, Hillman already has sent notice to most of the 200 members of the PAC staff that they go off the payroll Mo- vember Is.
 Originally PAC was set up as a permanent organization, and there are several schools of thought in side the CIO regarding its con- tinuation. One group, including auto workers president R. J. Thomas, wants to keep PAC alive. Hillman, on the other hand, wants to shut up shop, concentrate on New York politics, and also get his health back.
 NOTE-What most people don't realize is that Sidney Hillman was kicked out of the Roosevelt Admin istration without so much as a thank-you note during the embryo days of the War Production Board shortly after Pearl Harbor Hillman was then co-administrator of the Office of Production Management with General Motors chief William Knudsen, and was flat on his back with a serious illness when Roose- welt reorganized the entire set-up out from under Hillman. Hillman didn't know about it until he read it in the papers.

his reading during the campaign. Someone who dropped into his pri- vate study one day found a copy of the book open to Lincolns war days During the 1864 cam paign, McClellan's followers accused Lincoln of squandering public funds, mismanagement of the gov- ernment, destroying civil liberties, meddling with the war, and stand ing out for unconditional surren- der" Lincolns followers called the Mcclellan people 'copperheads' Lincoln ran as Commander in-Chief He was helped materially hy vital military victories, including the Battle of Mobile Bay and Sher- mans march through Georgia, which gave proof of his effective ness as commander. Tn the end, he carried all but three states in the Union-New Jersey, Delaware and Kentucky. In the l940 Willkie- Roosevelt campaign, the House and Senate campaign in- vestigating committees compiled 40 pages of exhibits of scurrilous literature. They expect the total in this campaign to be much greater. Neither party is simon pure |. |. Last summer a young friend of COP Congressman Joe Martin asked his advice about running for office. The sage Martin replied: T wouldn't get into this campaign unless I had to. This is going to be as dirty and under-handed a campaign as the nation has ever seen. Stay away from it if you can"

 Anyway, it takes a strong de- mocracy, a tolerant democracy, to withstand the brickbats, the name calling, the savagery of what has been the most difficult campaign since the 1864 campaign between Lincoln and Mcclellan.

PETTICoAT POLITICS

Women sometimes have lot to do with backstage politics. Witness Mrs. Will Clayton, wife of the suave, handsome Surplus War Property Administrator who, be- cause of his anti Roosevelt business associates in Texas, has been &C., cused of being against FDR.
 The other day, however, Will Clayton made a speech before the Womens Democratic Club on the subject, Why I Am for the Re- election of Franklin Roosevelt" Be- hind that speech was a lot of feminine wire-pulling chiefly by gracious Mrs. Clayton.
 Mrs. Clayton is a lady of both force and charm. Frequently she differs with her husband When he contributed $7000 to the Liberty League against Roosevelt in 1886, she contributed S7,OO0 to help Roosevelt
 In this years campaign, Mrs. Clayton wanted it definitely under stood that her husband was for Roosevelt. She. went, therefore, to Mrs. Will H. Davis, wife of the chairman of the War Labor Board and herself chairman of the pro- gram committee of the Women's Democratic Club, suggesting that Clayton speak before the club
 Mrs. Davis gladly agreed. Then Mrs. Clayton, to make doubly sure that her husbands position was understood, arranged personally for radio hook-up. Will Clayton was against the President in 1886, but there is no question about where he has stood in 1914.
