"In northern France many of the forests," he snys, "have been so badly smashed by shell, shrapnel and rifle fire, or so badly cut tor trench timbers, fuel wood and other supplies for the contending armies that they have been virtually des troyed. They can be restored only by reilatitlne. .The agricultural land lying between the forests In various sectors of the battle front have been so torn to pieces by" shell fire that It is no longer serviceable for agriculture and. like tho devas tated forests, will have to bo planted with forest tree seed so that In years to come the shell holes may be filled by gradual erosion nnd tho humus of the soil restored. Then the replant ed forests may be cut down and the land worked over nnd restored for agricultural use. "The peace delegates are now hav ing prepared data upon the losses In the French forests, and France means to insist upon a large umou nt of cutting In the German forests so j that she may be provided with lum ber for reconstruction purposes as a part of the Indemnity whtcn Ger many will ho required1 to pay for the damage which has been Infll'ted. "Italy, Belgium and Groat MriUln will make similar requests, for they, too, have suffered forest losses, and they, ton, need lumber In lnrrre qnnntltles and believe thnt Germany rhonld supply It to the xtent. of her rbllity."
