MEXICAN GRISIS SETTLENENT NEAR Presidential Succession Policy " Agreement Likely ', Aug. 17 (UP)—Un- loss not now apparent arise in the muantime, Mexico bolds out every prospect of a peace- ful settlement of the problem of the presidential succession, created by the ussassination of President Ilect Obregon. The regular session of congress between September and December will have largely in its hands the character of the solution if not the solution itself. The country has withstood calm- Iy and courageously the loss Obregon and now it is the hope of &ll elements that congress can de likewise without recourse to other than legal means of settlement. With three months to debate and perhaps adjust the constitutional fegtures of the succession, there weems plenty of reason to believe that it can be accomplished some- what before that period ends. President Calles at the moment seems the most likely choice for | provisional president. While Calles is personally opposed to continuing in office, the situation of all parties within the country is such that they veem almost compelled to unite around him as leader whether they sincerely desire to or not., In general the political factions 5t the countiy ~are " ‘divided into hree groups: The Obregonistas, the agrarians and the laboristas. Th=| present government of President alles 18 a compromise between the abor movement and the agrarian.

Thrashing about in his speciul |tank car, the huge beast succeeded in derailing his home on wheels at | Forest Hills, Minn., and brought the |show into Duluth hours behind schedule, officials of the circus said. Not content with making Mrs. |Cooligge pass her time in the small- ler tent, Goliath further gummed up | the works in his triumphant parade |around the arena. The huge spe- | cially made truck, on which he was being hauled, mired squarely in | front of Mrs. C‘oolidge and her son, | John, a short time after they had {taken their seats. Three of the larg- est elephants of the herd of 32, and | eight horses, finally pulled Goliath | | forth and the show proceeded. | It was the first time Mrs. Coolidge | had ever been in a sideshow. She was taken in at the rear of the tent | | as thousands milled about the front | entrance, unable to buy tickets | which were withheld until sufficient nimals were unloaded to assure an | afternoon performance. Mrs. Coolidge thoroughly enjoyed | the show, laughing heartily at the antics of the clowns and holding | her breath at the aerial perform- | ances of the acrobats. She was a | luncheon guest at the Northlund | club at noon, but did not arrive un- til nearly 8 o'clock for dinner at Cedar Island ledge, where the Pres- {ident remaincd the entire day rest- {ing from a trip yesterday to Wau- | sau, Wis. NORTH CAROLINA " LEADS IN TINBER ‘hereage Figures Disclose Good | Forest Crop | | | | Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 14.44»»—5 Timber, rather than cotton or to- | bacco, is North Carolina’s most im- | portant crop in point of acreage. In | addition, 1L M. Curran, forester for | the state department ot agricul- ture, believes it is the most profit- | able. North Carolina farmers, he says, | have a turnover of § U000 a ! year from their tim Home consumption accounts for $14,000.- 000 worth of forest yicld, while | out-of-state industries také the re- naining $18,000,000. All this is \ccomplished with neither fertiliz- | er nor cultivation, and harvesting can be postponed indefintely with- | out expense, until market condi- | tions are satisfactory. | The principal products of North Carolina forcsts are cord wood for | fucl, logs, poles, pulp, and lumber | for building construction, Curran says the industry is holding its own | n th 4 that despite the | $32,000,000 annual crop North Caro- lina is cutting less than half the amount it once harvested and at | | the present rate can continue per- | petually without diminishing the | supply. Federal economists, while sup- porting Curran's view as authori- tative, are inclined to describe North Carolina’s forest crop as “one of the most profitable” crops in the state, and explain that the present timber cut, to continue in- definitely, must be fortified by proper forestry practice. “Pine forestry and the naval stores indust they say, “are no longer regar as dying institu- | tions in the south, They now are | 1ooked upon as permanent indus- | trics, with opportuniiy for greter | stability than they have ever had and for profits at least equal to what they have realized in the past. “The idea of growing timber as {a crop has been grasped through- out much of the south. Apparently | farm forestry and industrial for- | estry are taking actual hold of the [ land more rapidly in the south than | in any other section of the United | States.” GOOD-WILL TRIP OFF | Virginians Unable to Agree on Own- ership of Chvil War 1Mag, so it} Stays in Stamford. | Stamford, Aug. 17 B—Until a question of ownership is settled, the | good-will delegation which planned |10 take to the capitol of Virginia, & Dattle flag and scveral other captur- NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, AUGUST 17, 1928.
