LOWDEN TO DIRECT FOREST WEEK PLAN Annual Observance to Be En- larged to Meet Increasing F Interest in Country. to be observed April 27 to May 3 werg outlined here yesterday at a gather- ing of foresters and representatives of forest industries, who elected ¥rank O. Lowden, former Governor of Tllinols, chairman of the direct- ing committee. American Forest week will replace the period heretofore designated as Forest Protection week. and instead of being sponsored ely by the United States Forest Service will be directed by a national citize mittee, to be appointed by « Lowden. As planned, the committee will include 100 representatives of na- tional societies and organizations. Five vice chairmen designated by Chairman Lowden will assist in or- ganization week in various parts of the National Lumber Manufactur- Dickinson Sherman, president of the Federation of Women's 1k G. Wisner, president nal Lumber Manufactur- Association; Wil Dilg, presi- dent of the Izaak Walton League: William _ B. Greele: £ of the United States Forest Service; George D. Pratt, president of the Amerfcan Forestry Association. Headquarters of the committee will be in Washing- ton. Public Interest Grows. Changing of the designation of the week and broadening of its sponsor- &hip and application were made neces- sary, Chairman Lowden sald, by in- creased public interest in forest re- and protection “The interest of the people in forests,” he said, “is far more- than that of protecting them from fires, fundamental such protection is. It is that of national welfare, rest- ing on the indispensability of wood in industry and commerce, and the fmportance of forests in stream con- trol, irrigation, general agriculture, prevention of erosion, recreation and climdtic effects. Viewed in this light, Forest week has an appeal in the regions as well in the d the changes in must be made it to be perpetuated from a universally formed public opinion. “What is beginning now should have started 25 years ago, but hap- pily our forest reserves are such that the fmmediate adoption of construc- tive forestry policies will go far toward restoring our forests and bridging the interval of a scarcity of forest products. — . ¥amed Crystal Palace of Lendon suffered from comvetition of the Wembly exhibition last year and at- tendance was 400,000 below the yearly average. ¢ storation re is an easy one How long did it COME BACK HERE, YO!

By the Associated Press. BERLIN, February 14.—Shipwreck is a sure cure for seasickness, says Dr. Lehmann, a well known phy n who has contributed an article to » Berlin clinical weekly on mal de mer in which he records that there are many well substantiated cases where the extreme nervous shock brought about by the necessity of saving one's elt has wiped out all traces of sea- ckness among passengers who had ! been “invelids” prior to the announce- ment that the boat they were on was about to go down Dr. Lehman, however, does not be- lieve seasickness is the creation of imagination He s deaf persons, whose inner ears are destroyed, and young babies, whose inner ecars are not vet developed, never are seasick. | Disturbances in the inner labyrinth of the ear, in the opinion of Dr. Leh- mann are communicated to the nerve renters which produce billiousness and seasickness. Resignations Are Accepted. The President has accepted the resignation of Capt. Harold W. Keller, Army Quartermaster Corps, and that of Second Lieut. James C. Short, U. S. Infantry. STAR, WASHI RUSSIAN'S GANGER CURE INTERESTS U3, Letters and Appeals Sent to Neurologist—Victims Of- fer to Go Abroad. By the Associated Press. LENINGRAD, Russia, February (14.—Prof. Molotkoff of the Neurolog- ical Academy here, who recently an- nounced a new method for the treat- ment of cancer, has been flooded with letters and appeals from cancer sufferers in the United States. Some of the letter writers offer to come to Russia if Prof. Molotkoff would un- dertake to treat them. Many ask for further details of his method, so that it can be applied by the patient’s own family physician in the United States. The treatment as suggested by the Russian doctor consists in cutting the nerves leading directly to the can- cerous growth, and it involves little more than extirpation of these nerves, which would bring about the isolation of the part and other disin- tegration of the growth. Not New, Experts Say. Some authorities aver that this is not a mew method, similar treatment having been tried with indifferent results on many former occasions. i @ eceting of Leningrad medical mer T Mwas Cinsisted that Molotkoff's treatment had brought about numer- ous cures, in proof of which several patients alleged to have been cured of cancer were exhibited. Prof. Molotkoff’s announcement appears to have created interest throughout Europe, and many finsti- tutions have invited him to demon- strate his methods before lhe_lr clin- jes. Dr. John H. Evans of Norwich, Conn., medical director of the Ameri- can Near East Relief for Southern Russia, has been requested by the American authorities to investigate the Molotkoff system in behalf of American medical institutions.
