OREGON IN DAKGFR
OF WG AIRPLANE
)L FOR FORESTS
Thew la a possibility that the for-
- est air patrol that was so well start
ed last summer may be discontinued,
according to N. F. MeDutf, supervis
or of the Cascade national forest, and
he has suggested that the Eugene
chamber of commerce take the mat
ter up with Oregon's representatives
in congress to do all in their power
to secure an appropriation to con
tinue the patrol. .
- ' "The Vntinuation of. the paJirol
means much to Kugend," said Mr
JKcDuff yesterday, "it already has
(been a great advertisement for this
city and It would be a matter of re
gret if It were discontinued."
Mr. McDuff calls attention to an
.editorial In last Issue of the Montana
Forest School News, a portion tof
which follows:
. "Congress is not making the neces
sary appropriations for the work.
This time it is not so much the forest
service alone which Is concerned
With the failure of conrgess to appro
priate funds. Everyone who owns tim
: bar, or who depends uDon th. nm.
ducUon of wood or the use of wood,
or whose welfare is related to forest
protection and forest uses and forest
influences and whose welfare is not
should feel concerned.
Fires Great Monaco
"Forest protection In the wento
forests has failed. Although damages
have been reduced and although for
; every aonar spent hundreds of dol
lars have been saved in forest value,
yet forest fires have in 10 years de
stroyed more timber on the national
forests than has been cut and prob
, ab!y as much has been burned as has
-grown in that time.
I "We know that on the basis' of the
s. detection and communication meth
ods mads possible by airplane patrol
'an adequate system of fire protection
Tcan be built. Airplane ' patrol will
- make fire protection efficient.
"It Is said, too, that this nation is
-; rapidly losing,: or even throwing
1 away, all that It gained In the use of
' airplanes for military preparedness.
Nobody wants war again we don't
4 like even to think about it. We shall
have least need for thought and wor-
ry and care about it if we are prepar
". ed for the worst that may come.
Oonrgesamea Willing
"Four representatives and senators
f In congress like to work for legisla
, tioa which you want They hate like
the dickens to have to work their
' heads off for a good cause and then
come home to explain what it was all
about and to try to drum up a little
' pra.se for worthy action done. '
"Write to them today. Tell them
; how much forest protection means to
I yoor region'. Tell them we are using
one fiftieth part of the nation's mer
s chantable saw timber each year. That
' fire damage, wasteful forest use and
' other devastations and depredations
largely offset ' what we should get
from forest growth each year. Tell
'them a protective system built upon
... the basis of aeroplane fire patrol will
be the most efficient means known of
preventing forest destruction. Tell
them here is a means of- helping to
keep up our nation's military prepar
ednesa without the cost of an exclu-
;. slve military measure." Register.

Nothing can resist the incessant
and consistent will of woman, when
she knows what is true and wills
what Is good.'
The writer reasons broadly for the
age of woman, that It has come to
May. He does not pettifog for the sex
superiority of woman, but Insists that
goodness comes to her as to man. not
by nature but must be worked for
and fought for desperately. But he
does make cabalistic Inferences, print
ed in boxcar letters, showing that In
tellectual men have the most women
friends. Intimating , that they prefer
brains to beef. He also hnw h u
Is In the economic world that woman
mum seek her freedom, not In dress
reform, although he does refer to the
"flapping indecency of skirts" - as
"degrading sex advertising rags."
Vance! Thompson ma.ka a. mat
deal of woman's higher sense of or
der; that the brain of woman is an
ordinary brain; that order, not dis
order, is the basis of all art; that In
private and public affairs woman
stands for orderly procedure, for the
uimvenuonamies ana rules or social
order; that she will make a better
and more economical public adminis
trator, and hence we are due for a
woman ruled world. He does not
quite say It but we are left to assume
that in this new world she will al
ternately fill all offices with men,
that is men and women will take turn
about filling every office and let the
world Judge of efficiency.
