Competing hardwood growth is the most disturb- ing single factor operating to prevent the reestab- | lishment of spruce and fir on cut-over spruce lands in New England, the Forest Service of the United | States Department of Agriculture finds. “Where beech and sugar maple form an ap- preciable portion of the stand, any type of cut- ting, unless it is followed by special cultural treat-i ment, results in rapid encroachment of hsrdwoodsl on areas formerly occupied by spruce and fir. Clear | cutting of spruce and fir halts additional restock- | ing of these species for many years, whereas pro- lific seeding of large residual hardwoods results in establishment of much additional hardwood | growth. In some instances promiscuous cutting of | young growth may be cheifly responsible for lhe‘ conversion of former mixed spruce and hardwood stands into pure hardwood stands.” To secure reestablishment of spruce, the Forest| Service recommends care in logging, leaving a sub-| stantial stand of young spruce undamaged. Re-| lease cutting of dominant hardwoods should follow.| WHAT MAKES THE COURTS COST MO! ! Much more than half (58'% per cent. to be exact) of the criminal cases in the courts of the First Division, during the calendar year of 1929, arose from alleged violations of the Eighteenth Amend- ment. This bare statement, taken from statistics made public by U. S. Marshal Albert White, makes plain the source of court costs—the jury and wit-| ness fees, etc, and the multitudinous necessary ex-| penses incident to jury terms of courts. | When one considers that in addition to the costs for the extra work that Prohibition piles upon the United States courts there are the salaries of | Prohibition agents, extra deputies in the offices' of the U. S. Attorney and U. S. Marshal, jailers, guards, etc., it is easy to see that the Eighteenth | Amendment is costing a lot of money in Alaska,| whereas before its adoption the license system produced a large amount of revenue for the schools and other necessary governmental services. ‘The Manchester Guardian says Clemenceau was one of the few men who acquired great power but was able to live happily without it. Could any- thing more clearly indicate bigness? He lived for bigger things than to wield power. PLENTY OF MONEY IN TREASURY. With a cash balance of $844,850.41, Alaska en- tered the new year with more money in the Ter- ritorial treasury than she ever had at the be- ginning of a year in the past. The salmon tax for 1929 is still due and will begin coming in soon The indications are that the beginning of the fiscal year will see & much larger sum in the Treasury, and, if the 1930 salmon pack is at all SS. | titled to the The pictures disclose that Helen discarded the * | eye-shade for the wedding at least. !

Mr. McAndrew, with |a magnanimous gesture typical of the man, re- fuses to sue the city for the back salary due him jor to continue his $250,000 libel suit against Mayor Thompson. When he began the suit he said he |was fighting “for the protection of my profession,” and Judge Pam’'s decision is a victory for teachers | everywhere. The British public was even more amazed than the American to learn that a candidate for Mayor of America’s second city was gallivanting about, |shouting that the School Superintendent was “a | stool pigeon of King George,” “in the pay of Great |tously tries to conduct the school system in accord- |ance with law cannot be libeled by a demagogic politician who wuses the same school system as |political capital.” They have not quite shown that {yet—not by a long shot.

Few believe that it was anything but futile and tragic in its results. It was an episode which can be understood only if we recall the extraordianry results of the Rus- slan revolution. When Russia and Germany signed the treaty of Brest-Litovsk in March, 1918, the Allies and Americans were preparing for the last desperate struggle on the western front. The: treaty enabled Germany to transfer her eastern | forces to France; it made possible there systematic exploitation of much of Russia. As the Allies watched the growing subservience of the Bolshe- vists to Berlin, they cast about for means of check- mating German designs on Russia’s resources. Jap- anese troops, with Americans and others assisting, took control of Vladivostok. An expeditionary force of British, French and Americans was despatched to the Murman coast and Archangel to prevent the Germans from establishing submarine bases on the White Sea, protect the vast Allied stores from falling into German hands and shield the Murmansk Rail- road from Finnish-German attack.
