ISE VER CTUS o Miltioigs of Actes of Land Set Aside lor Coming Goneratons Phoenlx, Aris, Feb, 16.—P— Unelo Sam's penchant for thrift has caused him to sot aside 12,306,337 acres of “forest” land in Arizona for previding timber for a far distant tuture, This vast acreage has been dealg- nated for protection as a national forest preserve, of which the state has nine. No man can molest the growth in the forests—some of which, despite thelr designation, have almost no trees. In fact, cac- tus is the tallest vegetation in some of the areas pet aside for trees, while crumbling logs of petrified forests cover the waste land in other tracts. But young trees are being planted, and they will make the great open spaces real forests in the decades and centuries to come. The enormous areas already are growing timber that is far advanc- ed. The nine national forests have | the largest stand of native pine in the world. Some trees are being cut, but Uncle Bam insists on immediate reforestation. Benefits of the government’s for- | est policy will be enjoyed long be- for the trees are large enough for dred th more powerful than the ordinary house electric lamp. If one jamp falls the second lamp is automatically switched on, and if both lamps cease to function or the current fails, an acetylene burner is ..umm-mu;,mzed and swung into ‘position. ‘ CUNGEFINDTS START OF QUEST Florida Indian Hunt Result of Real Accident Washingten, Feb. 17.

For instance, the Tonto national forest, largest in | Arisona, was ereated to protect the watershed which supplies irrigation water for the great Salt River valley and fts series of artificial storage lakes. Rain water, rolling down from a barren watershed, causes destruct- ive floods, bhut trees and scrub growth and underbrush retard the flood rush and enable man to con- serve the water for use in dry times.

It isn't that the advice is un- sound: rather that vehicles are im- proving and not all stars possess: all the qualities needed for every hitching. In other words Adolph Zuk president of the Paramount Fi mous Players Lasky Corporation. tells The Assocluted Press that stars are being 1itted to the story rather than the atory to the star | as one phase of & decided movement toward reduction of waste, improve- ment of earnings and stabilization of the industry. ) Thero {8 no disposition to penal- ize ability by reducing salaries of | stars and executives, except where adequate scrsen results are not forthcoming, Mr. Zukor said, ex- plaining that the greatest savings are looked for in increased efficiency and preparedness of production. “Talking movies” have been taken quite seriously, although pro. gress 8o far appears to be iIn the | direction of musical accompani- ment and introducing effects, leav- ing the matter of giving voice to the actors to those occaslons when words would enhance the drama. Incidentally Mr. Zukor intimates that Paramount probably will make an interesting announcement in this connection In the near future. But about this reordering of the industry's inner structure. “In an industry which grew so (rapidly and reached, within the space of o few years, such a com- manding positien {n public favor,” Mr. Zukor sald, “paturally business | practices arose which have to be diecarded whea the stabiliation era |arrives. $ { “This is the meaning of the deter- mined and succeastul efforts to cur- tail costs In the interest of better pictures and better service to the public. The studio deadwood is be- ing weeded out, but it should be is in the direction of progress and is in no sepse a confession of failure, When this program is fully completed, esrnings will' rise as a matter of course, A good dea! has been said about the reduction of sslaries of stara and executives, There is no ais- position to penalize ability. but where inflation of salaries exists, without adequate return in screen results, the pruning process is in- evitable, “The greatest savings in the mo- tlon picture business, however, will clearly understood that this policy of come from increased efficlency and preparsdness in production. By this 1 mean plans for the season's production will b out at the beginning of the asea- son, on udget basis, and the lost motion and time between pictures { will thereby be.cut to a minimum; this, in turn, substautially cutting | the eost of production,” My, Zukor belisves there will be | mo sacrifice of art in carrying out | the efficiency program. | “The swing is clearly in the di- rection of better stories,” he ex- plained. “which meads, among other things, that the star will be more and more fitted to the rtory rather than the story to the star.” Building of great theaters making able to the public the (inest type of entertainment at relatively low admission cost, Mr. Zukor sald has helped the exhibition side, ani the greatly increased audience al- ready reslizod {is regarded as u | vigorous sign of health and & happy | augury for the industry's future. Growth of foreign trade he views as dependent, lUke domestic b ness, upon the public's pleasure. He sald there is every indication that the American picture i maintain. ing its hold at the box-offices | abroad, and it is just as true that America is welcoming outatanding foreign pictures, adding: “The whole situation simply re- | solves itself into & matter of pleas- | ing the publie, wherever located.” T0 MOVE BODY Vicenza, Feb. 17 (UP)~—It has been decided that the body of the famous poet Giacomo Zanella, now buried in the village cemetery at Monticelll, shall be removed to the mausoleum of {llugtrious men in the Basilica of 8t.

It was brought in by the tide yesterday. The body which obviously had been in the sait water for several montha, had but one outward identi. fying mark—a black taffeta necker- chief, like those worn by American sallors. First gueses were that it might be the body of Lieut. Vilas R. Knope, U. 8.

Captain William Erwin and his navigator A. H. Eichwaldt, who set out a few days after the Dole flight in hope of sighting traces of the two lost planes, likewise never returned. Bcores of airplanes and 39 naval vemsels searched for days and the missing planes with no succeas. A chart from Knope's dentist, in San Diego, is being sought for checking the teeth of the body.
