Robert Taft For Hoover Among tho loyal supporters of Herbert Hoover is Robert Tuft, son of the formor president, who, accord ing to the Torre Haute Tost, started tho Hoover boom in Cincinnati. Ills brothor Charles is an officer in the Qloover club at .New Haven, and re port has It that the ex-president Is favorable to Hoover, also, because of bis stand for tho League of Nations. "Having been In closo association with Hoover for two years, and see ing his work, 1 am convinced that he is the greatest man among all the candidates and will make the great est president," declares Hubert Taft. "Ho meets every problem squarely, thinks out the fundamental princi ples which apply to II with sound ability, and Inkes the action required by those principles with a proper allowance for practical difficulties. "Tho Belgian relief, tho food ad ministration, tho general Kuropean relief, wore not only well managed by him, but tho very Idea of the work was Initiated by him. Ho has a know lodgo of government. His training in business methods us the head of largo mining enterprises enabled hlnv to run a government department on business principles. He has proved his ability to effect the kind of re organization in Hie government tie. partnionta which is so vitally needed toduy. "Hoover Is a typical American who stnrted as an orphan farm hoy in Iowa, worked his way thru Stan ford university In California, and by own ability alone, finally reached the top of his profession. His ex perience abroad has only made him more Intensely American and more convinced that the welfare and safety of our nation, and of the world, de pond on holding closely to the demo cratic principles on which the United States was founded." Salem Journal. rrIfE American Paper and Wood Pulp association, ,ir A its recent convention in New York, adopted a eom prclieiisive program Cor replenishing the paper mills' raw material supply. Jt is a scheme of reforestation, to hi made into a national policy and put through by the federal government, with the co-operation of the states. There would lie fixed sums appropriated annually for forest surveys, the purchase of timbered land and land suitable for timber, and for planting new trees. The pro cess would go on mil il the nat ional forests aggregated li(il), 000,000 acres. The states would be expected to provide bi t ter protection for forest lands. Private f'orestation would be encouraged, and farm loans would be made available o promote timber growing. These recommendations are no doubt good ones, de serving careful consideration by Congress and the state legislatures. They need not be allowed, however, to divert attention from an iniportaift fact emphasized at the con vention by (ieorge "YV. Sissoii, president of the association. He admitted frankly that the present paper shortage, which is oj' such vital concern to every publisher in Ameri ca, and indirectly to every citizen, is due directly to the prodigal methods used in American forests and paper mills. It is waste that has made it necessary to plan programs of reforestation. I here has been inexcusable waste in the cutting of trees and in the preparation of those trees for lumber and pulp, and in the handling of the material de livered to the paper mills. 'ast ipiantities of wood that might have been used for paper have been burned as refuse or allowed to rot in the woods. .1 here lias been no proper utilization ot the timber cut, and there has been wanton destruction through tires and careless clearing ot voting trees that ought to have been left intact to supply the fu ture forests. Is this waste still going on? Are the lumbermen and 11)0 paper men still engaged in the same thriftless prac tices? Will our future forests be wasted likewise? The public has a right to know, before if is asked to support any big and expensive plains for reforestation. How many people in tornado-swept Oklahoma know what th(! climate in Soul hern Oregon is like ! Our greatest asset is our climate and yet, while California upends mil lions every year telling the world about her climate, Ore gon, comparatively speaking, keeps still. Oregon, to toe average easterner only means, moss, web feet and standing timber. The state needs a wide-awake publicity man, with some money neimia nun. Poss Penrose has dropped Senator Harding after his Ohio showing, and now favors Senator Knox of Pennsyl vania for the Kepuhlican nominee. Keep it up Holes your t doing fine. , , All doubt of Johnson's victory in the California pri maries has been removed. With Harding he is the only Re publican candidate opposed by the Anti-Saloon league. Two more Americans in Mexico have been murdered, which shows that even a civil war can not divert our south, eru neighbors from their most popular sport. . When the convention meets, a large number of people will wonder why they got so excited over the primary elections. .'fudging by registration and straw ballot figures, the seating accommodations in San h'ranciseo will be ample. Building a good road is only half the battle. Keeping the road good is the most important, part of the job. The railroad strike epidemic has spread to France, which makes it unanimous.
