PARIS, Oct. 10, 0:.V.l ji. m. -In
contrast to the rapidity with which
the OcrmuiW have conducted their
campaign f.gainst Antxverp, the tide
of battle i flowing slowly in certain
parts of France. The engagements in
the Woevro district, tceording to tho
statements of the wounded soldiers,
brought back from this territory,
continue to take the folia of a Blow
nnd .steady siege.
Tho German trenches in tho
Woevro have been const ructed in txvo
lines, one behind the other. The out
ermost is furnished with quick-firing
guns, xvilltout no-ts constantly on

The first line js reached from tho sec

Tho allies havo just installed a

xvhicli up to tho present time has been

Chief Forester Would Realize New
Upon Assets by Aiding Communi

Securing Funds for Construction f
Highway Tbrouvh Reserve.
Henry S. Graves, chief forester of
the United States nnd in charge of
tho bureau of forestry, in a Boench
at mi informal lunchcol tendered him
at the University club Friday even
ing, outlined his plans for making tho
forest reserves of great assistance to
the communities they serve hy nil
immediate realization upon a portion
of their assets through congress. Hy
tho plan outlined, mi improvement
unit could he created for n district,
presumably iv county or group of
counties served and an extensive sys
tent of highways or other improve
ments constructed such, for in
stance, as the Crater lake highxvuy
through the Crater lake forest.
Mr. Graves said in part:
Realize 1'm)h Resources
"In the Crater national forest there
nro vast timber resources aggregat
ing over 10,000,000,000 feet, but
much of it is not available for imme
diate sale under present conditions
without great sacrifice of public in
terests. A olau can bo devised hv
which the national forest uiuy aid
noxv in the great xxork of developing
this section xvithoitt sacrificing tho
purpose for which it xvas established.
"Congress has recognized tho prin
ciple that tho national forests shall
contribute direcllv to the devclon
meut of the local communities. This
is not only in giviii" first considorK
tion to local interests in the admin
istration and uim of tho resources,
hut congress actually appropriates 'J.'i
per cent of the gros receipts from
the forests, for the benefit of schools
mid roads, and an additional JO per
cent for roads in the forests for gen
eral iublic needs. This plan works
admirably xvhere it is possible to
utilize the resources noxv.
Secure nn Advnco In Cash
"I do not propose liny general leg
islation or general appropriation.
Particularly, 1 am not advocating
any general federal aid in highxvav
construction. I proposo rather taking
a given development unit as a coiiutv
or group of counties within which a
national forest stands, and securing
noxv, on the basis of the public timber
resources, an advance to bo covered
by receipts xvhicli it can ho shown
will eertaiulv como in inter. .Tliu
money to bo used noxv in construct
ing specific publiu improvements.
"The real agricultural problem in
this state is in tlio lo"edoff lands
xvhicli are today Hnr idle hecuuse
thoy nro inaccessible or nro held nt
prices prohibitive for the settler
whoso only capital is his strength
and pioneer spirit. While it will not
solve tho xvliolo problem, at least tho
development of roads in theso regions
will be the first step toward getting
peoplu on these lands to build homes
and develop farms,
llecictatloii Use Resource
"Wo regard tho recreation use ot

"The building of highxvays through
