COl KTFV OF THE FOREST.
ACCORDING to fiirurei of th V. S.
Forrt Pn'c. ncsny ten million
reorl Tiitfd t" Nation. Forests
of the t'r.ited States Ut year, of
vMch, 1,576 000 were to the forests
of Oregon and Whinptcn. The re
port how that over exphi million of
thee people rnme in automobiles.
The Forest Sennet has been active
ly enpaped in building roads and
trails opening Bp the forested re
gions for use and for pleasure. More
and nor people are using1 these
routes of travel. Practically every
traveler brinpa fire in some form-
campfiret, matches, tobacco, cigar
ettes
Tfce number of careful campers
increases every year. More and more
people are learn in p the awful possi
bilities of fire in the woods. They
are learmnp the rules of the game,
and are playing square. But each
year there are enough people who do
not know or do not think to bring
the number of man-caused fires up
to seventy per cent or more.
Every citnen should learn care with
fire before he goes into the wood
even though it means changing the
habits of a life-time. Every forest
visitor should appreciate the privil
ege extended to him, and treat his
hostess. Dame Nature, with due con
sideration and refrain from burning
the roof over her head!
If each forest visitor were to re
lease carelessly only one spark or fire
that would mean a ten million spark
power menace. Rather should these
forest visitors enlist as a loyal force
of ten million American citizens us
ing their privileges but not abusing
them and making a united effort to
prevent forest fires.

BUSINESS VERSVS PLEASURE,
AMONG our pleasures and excite
ments as American people is what
is called "politics." There are ele
ments of sport, gambling, specula
tion and all the chances and ups and
downs of a lottery or horse race. Pol
itics for this reason has a fascina
tion that amounts almost to a pas
sion in the minds of thousands of
good eititens. The conclusion of an
exciting race at the primaries, nom
inating conventions and elections al
ways sees a great deal of money
change hands although betting on
elections is strictly forbidden by law.
The interest of a great nation of
100,000 people, with commerce run
ning into hundreds of millions and
billions, when we add manufacturing,
transportation, agriculture, mining
and public improvements, must in the
final correct solution of problems be
come more and more a matter of bus
iness. The most serious question be
fore our country is the relation of
our government to foreign affairs, es
pecially the restoration of fairly nor
mal conditions in the late war-stricken
nations of Europe. Morally, po
litically and economically, and above
all to ourselves, we owe it to the
worid to aid in bringing this about
as soon as possible. To keep Ameri
can industries and payrolls on a
steady foundation, to see that our
farmers and producers have open ac
cess for their surplus products to
the markets of the world, will take
something more than trickery of pol
itics. It will take the application of
the best brains and the soundest bus
iness principles, which is statesman
ship far beyond party lines. We must
forego the pleasure and excitement
of old-fashioned politics and serve

BIG CITIES NOW THE LOSERS.
A CURSORY study of the building
industry shows to what extent
the cities have been compelled to
fight the exodus of city residents to
the suburbs ar.d to the country. New
construction started daring the first
five months of 1924 for the entire
country touiltd almost 12,000,000,000.
The activity has been so great that
the momentum is bound to carry the
industry through the winter at a

h'ph level, though it is bow quit evi
dent that building has been in excess
of the demand in the large centers of
population while there bas been com
paratively little construction in the
smaller cities, in the villages and on
the farms.
This condition has greatly stabilis
ed values in the country districts.
Indeed, much wisdom has been shown
in the careful way in which this
housing problem has been met by the
men in the country. Prior to the
great demand for city homes country
iv a 1 estate was at a tow ebb. Then
came the great pressure on the city
fo. as due to the enormous increase
n rents. The rush for the open
found the country ready for the ab
sorption without any pressing neces
sity to increase the number of homes.
The result is that country properties
have been turned from obligations in
to valuable income producing assets.
The fact that city rents are still ab
normally high insures the safety of
the country districts. In the sub
urbs of the larger centers it is an ac
cepted fact that the advance in val
ues is now established on a perman
ently higher level. Once the city man
tastes the glories of sunshine and
gets a whiff of new mown hay, the
call of the cabaret and the white
lights make little or no appeal. Coun
try life, like country newspapers
need only to be tried to be appre
ciated. s-s-s
THRIFT LN PUBLIC EDUCATION.
THE recent session of the National
Educational association at Wash
ington, D. C. emphasized the import
ance of thrift, teaching economy in
school administration and introduc
tion of universal savings systems.
Arthur H. Chamberlain, chairman
of tha National Committee on Thrift
Education, advocates courses of study
on these lines in the school systems
of our country.
General introduction of school sav
ings deposit systems, with millions
of small depositors drawing interest,
are to be introduced in the common
schools and colleges.
Progressive banking houses are
taking up this matter on practical
lines to counteract the tendency of
children learning to spend money be

TAXATION AND TAX-FXEMPT IN
COME REPORT.
THE Federal Trade Commission re
cently submitted to the Senate a
report on taxation and tax-exempt in
come. The report shows the amount of
tax-exempt securities now outstand
ing; estimates the amounts held by
corporations and individuals and the
taxes which might be collected from
them, if they were taxable; shows
the increase of indebtedness, national.
state and local, and the purposes for
which incurred; gives the aggregate
tax burdens, national, state and lo
cal; and considers where the heaviest
burdens lie.
The total amount of tax-exempt se-1
curities outstanding on December 31,
1922. was about $32,000,000,000 and
consisted of nearly $12,000,000,000 of
wholly tax-free and over $20,000,000,
000 of surtaxable securities. Of the
wholly tax-free obligations, $2,294.
000.000 were federal and $8,797,000,-
000 were state and local.
The general taxpayer must make up
to the government the amounts which
it loses through inability to tax the
income from these billions and future
issues of tax-exempt bonds.
S-S-S
RED RAGS AND IGNORANCE.
A RED rag is used to excite a bull.
The tariff is used to inflame the
public mind.
There is no more reason for the
public to get excited than there is for
the bull, as neither the red rag nor
the tariff are dangerous.
Ignorance is the cause of most
hardship and suffering,
A tariff to give reasonable protec
tion to home industries from unreas
onable competition is in the interest
of the workman, good wages and
steady payrolls.
Then why use it as the political
Market
red flag to inflame the public Kind
instead of considering the matter as
a business proposition?
S-S-S
UNFAIR DISCRIMINATION.
AFTER everybody is agreed that the
theory and practice of a definite
method for compensating an injured
workmen is right and proper, agita
tion is started to make this form of
insurance a "state monopoly" to the
exclusion of private insurance com
panies operating in compliance with
state laws. If the state must enter
this line of business, why not leave
it optional with an employer to in
sure with the state or with a private
company which compensates a work
man the same as the state?
