If there Is any opportunity to escape doing so. Th can Just cited by Dr. Stelner arises through a New York law that foreblds the state hospitals there from accepting permanent patients who are not residents of the state- Dr. Stelner received a letter a few days ago from Dr. William B.

'We find that this patient had a steam- hip ttrket for his native heme In Hungary." ssys Dr. Sylvester, "but as his condition Is such that he is unable to undertake the trip unattended, he cannot be returned to his native land. Owing to the fact that he was a patient In your In stitution for a long period, we would kindly ask If you will accept the patient at your hofltal. as he la not a resident of this slate and therefore cannot b retained In one of our hospital.'

The State of Oregon Is under no obligation what ever to assume the care of this Individual under the circumstances. 'You say that he could not be retained In one of your state hospitals as he Is not a resident of tha State ot New York, and you ask if we would kindly accept this patient at our hospital, owing to the fart that he was a patient ner tor a few months. In reply I wleib to say that be Is not a resident of Oregon and that while under our laws w could care for him. we will not do It. In the name of Justice, why should Oregon have to as sume ths burden when the great Stats of New York, with all her millions of tax able property and charitable societies) will pass him up? What do you expect, to uo witn ine man? You say that you cannot care for him. t'nder the Inlted spates immigra tion laws, he Is not a deportable case.

Government Red Tape and Lack of Purchasers Is Cause of Millions of Cubic Feet or Valuable Tim ber Rotting Away Rapidly. MEDFORD. Or.. Dec. 10. (Special.) Many millions of feet of excellent yellow pine timber In the Crater .Lake National forest reserve Is deteriorating from old age. This Is the testimony of many of the lumbermen. The fact that much tim ber Is ripe and should be cut is also ad mitted by M. L. Erlckson, the forest supervisor stationed at Medford: by District Forester Cecil. Deputy District Forester Buck and other officials of the forest service, who have visited the region recently. The forest men explain, however, that the standing cruise is not being diminished as the young trees are growing to fill the places of the deca dent ones. Such large timber owners as George F. King and Edgar Hafer. however, state that the young and the decaying trees are the only ones that have been damaged by the fire which swept through the district last Sum mer. Some Sales Made. The forest department have. In a small way, endeavored to put the ma ture timber to some use rather than allow It to rot. During the last two years they have sold 25.000.000 feet of timber. Last month they advertised the sale of 146.000 feet. But there are many millions of feet more that gov ernment red tape and lack of pur chasers Is allowing to rot. Some parts of the reserve are difficult of access. To this drawback the Government adds that of picking out the mature trees scattered through the forest. These two difficulties together keep away the purchaser. There is one portion of last Sum mer's conflagration In Southern Ore gon that did damage to grown solid yellow pine trees. The district, thus affected was around the South Fork of the Rogue River near the town of Prospect, where a high wind produced a bad fire. Here, according to Govern ment statistics, 45 per cent of the for est was killed. Much of this damased area consists of private holdings outside of the Na tional forest. In this district, the Rogue River Lumber Company, of which A. E. Meserve of Portland Is a member, has large holdings. The com pany owns about 40.000.000 feet or fire-killed timber and the Government has 60.000.000 feet In like condition ad joining. Of the timber burnt over, fortunately this is the easiest of ac cess as a railroad could be extended to It from the Pacific & Eastern ter minal at Butte Falls, a distance of not over 10 miles. Government Awaits Action. Government officials are hoping that th company will take hold of the proposition, large as It Is. and use the damaged timber, all of which Is of fine quality. If more timber were needed by the company. Supervisor Erlckson says that the Government would sell adjoining green timber, most of which Is mature and should be used.' The largest area burnt by one fire was that which devastated the Red Blanket country around Mount Mc Loughlln on the summit of the Cas cades. Fifty square miles of country was burned over, but small damage resulted, as most of the burnt area was an ld burn, where there was no tim ber The district cleaned of under brush by the fire Is now being set to young trees by the forest department.
