MONEY MAIN OBSTACLE -TO

" ' t'
Washington. Feb. ft.- -Chief For
ester Graves, after - an fpterview on
bis recent v western ; trip with Dis
trict Forester Cecil of Portland, Or
says the plan submitted for proposed
improvement of the Columbia Gorge
park appears to be a good one, and the
question tbat remains is on of money
that can pa made available for ; uch
use. - : u-:,i", '-" '
- Contrary to first 1- Opinion here,
Graves believes . that funds may be
secured from the general improvement
and administration funds allotted to the
forest service, : aside from ' the regular
10 per cent received from timber sales
In the national forests. " .
Withi m adopuon of this view the
prospect: for early . improvement ac
cording to the plans worked out by
Forest Supervisor Sherrard and local
interests is much brighter" Whether
enough money can b squeezed out tn
en year ; to carry the plan through
fully is not determined, but with some
local cooperation th outlook for early
work to beautify and. make th tract
accessible is good. - - . ' . , .
' District Forester Cecil upon hi re
turn from meeting: Chief ' Forester
Grave at ' Salt Lake - expressed con
fidence .that the Columbia Gorge park
improvement outlined by a chamber

officials -win be approved and an ap
propriation made - sufficient for the

Mrs, Mary Baker ddy, founder of the

by the Christian Science Monitor a an
advocate for national preparedness of
the navy and army against invasion,
In on of the most remarkable edi
torials which has appeared . la th
greatest of th Christian Science news
papers, the words of Mrs. Eddy, writ-
en by ner in 108 are quoted thus:
"It 1 unquestionable, however, that
at mis hour the armament: of navies
is necessary, tor. tb purpos of pre
venting war and. .preserving ' . peace
among nations." -
The editor of th ' Monitor argues
that sine evil in the world has not
disappeared, nut threatens to over
whelm' good, the doctrine of non-resistance
cannot yet be accepted in
the world. r- v
'- The-Monitor-squares the proposed
military preparedness with the doc
trine enunciated by Mrs. Eddy. In
conclusion it declares: , ?
"The absolutely vital question, there
fore, for a nation on the, eve of pre
paredness appear to be that mere
should be in its thought no dream of
conquest, no Idea of preparedness for
aggression. When a great nation pre
pares for war it should prepare with
m conviction that it will never need
to put out it strength, but it should
prepare so a to be able to defend
mat which is good."
