To the distant Dutch East Indies, the number of com mercial machines sent was 440 against 309 In the same months of 1919, and only 68 in the corresponding months of 1918, and to our own Philippines 698 commercial machines in the year I920r period against 159 in the same period of 1919; while British Oceania which consists chiefly of Australia and New Zealand took 929 commercial machines in the ll months of the fis cal year 1920, against 271 in the same months of 19919, and 178 in the cor responding months of 1918.

Kincald, whose papers he confessed stealing and a German count according to information gathered here. The real lieutenant Kincald, who al so received $1680 back pay when he mustered out, according to army rec ords, claims to be the son of an Amer ican opera singer and a German count according to an Interview published in a Chicago newspaper. His mother, he Is quoted as saying, was betrayed in Paris by the German oficer. When he went to France with the American army he determined to hunt up his father and exact revenge. Army records show that Klncaid was sent to Berlin after the armistice and left there on a vacation from which he did not return. Later he was found in a hospital in Belgium and was returned to America and fin ally discharged. He received the Croix de Guerre. Killed His Father. Kincald says that while on his vaca tlon in Germany he located the count his father, and killed him in a duel, then fled to Belgium, where he was taken sick. About that time his papers and- passports were stolen by Schuae, he believes. j Army records show that the Lieu tenant Kincald who confessed at San Francisco that he was Schude, rejoin ed the army at Brest and was returned to America. The real Kincald says he also was returned to America and mustered out at Camp Taylor, Ky., aft er receiving his back pay. Army rec ords substantiate his story. District Attorney Charles F.

The greatest destruction ev er known to forests was that wrought in France by the war. And yet France is by no means bare of trees. . Not counting Alsace-Lorraine France still has nearly a half more acres in forest than has Germany. The war wiped out 750,000 acres of trees in France, which will be replanted. But that was only one acre ont of every thirty acres of foreft in the re public Artillery fire caused only a part of the destruction. France was forced to cut down millions of trees for fuel and lumber supplies for herself and her allies. i But Germany must pay the piper wi kind and will hand over a big lot of its available timber for reconstuction work. The French government has decided that it will be more profitable to re plant trees In her wasted forest lands than to convert the land into farms. No. 24 Eugene and Coos Bay 6:36 p. m.
