THE ASSICIATEW PRESS, CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING NOV. 1ith, 1922 11,961 p——— IDLE LAND. While Dr. Baker in speaking in Mid- fletown comcefning the demands upon the forests of the country and the fecds of reforestation was unlouticd- Jy speaking from the standpoint of -he paper and pulp assoclation of which he Is the exgeutive secretary, nevertheless he had much to say that was of im- portance and deserving of careful con- sideration. Tt has been potnted out from time to time, because of a lack of reforesta- * tlon and an effort to make provisions for futore meeds, that the furcs's avall wble for pulp would be exhausted within & auarter of a century. It was a state- ment intended to bring more of the peo- ple to & realization of the situation be- fore t is too late, with a view to pro- viding for' forests to take ths ‘piace of those tha: are being removel That this can be done s accentuated by Dr. Baker when he points out that there is enough land, now idle, east of the Mississippl and north of the Poto- mac to grow all the forests that will be needed by the paper industry in thls eountry for all .time to. come.. It is.to b6 noted that he ‘maintains that this can be done _on land that is now idle. Some idea of what this means can be gained from the fact that only a Tittle over a third of the farm land of Con- nectiont is unde cultivation. There are a million and & halt acres of forest and jdle land In this state with only one per cent of it under forest management, Connecticut stands well with the oth New England states in the amount of{ reforestation work, but in all of them it is small in comparison with the op- portunity and the certainty of the need for such material in the future. Not one of the states meets its own requirc- ments for construction purposes and where the greatest amount of it is used . practically all of it .is #mported. This situation is not due to the fact that there is not an opportunity to pro- luce more timber of ail kinds in these Rates but because of the failure to im- wove it. Idle land tells the story. SAFETY THE OBJECT. Marny are the efforts that have been put forth in behalf of safety in the Mghway. The frighttul fatality” record fhould make a double heavy impression, PROPER, TREATMENT. There is a lesson of importance con- of _the supreme court of the state of:Illinots in sentenc- ing to prison a millonatre and four as- soclatés -cogvicted of violating the anti- syndicalism® law. = ~Charged with - at- temptifig *to - overthrow ‘the government and et up & new.one in kéeplhg Wwith the principles 'supported by . the Ted leaders. of Euroge proot sufficient to con- vict was’ produced and the courtwagnot swayed from its duty because of the wealth that fs possessed by the leader of the quintette or the plea for lenien- cy because be was a man of much money and bad no one to leave In charge of it. There are times when it is figured by some that wealth cark do anything, that it can obtain lenlency, that it makes the violation of laws possible and that it permits even courts to be “fxed” Be- cause of thelr wealth there aro those who figure they are able to pay lesg Tespect to the law. This was shown durmg the week when the sclon of a prominent New York family expressed his confidence in being able to fix things up when arrested for violation of automobile laws, Possibly ho had been able to find someone in previous cases who had done some fixing for him, but this time he did not and in addition to the fine for his act was obliged to do tirhe behind bars in the lockup. Such examples are excellent thin If it were the practice instead of exception to deal out justice to all alfic there might perhaps be less disposition on the part of the wealthy to figure that they are the privileged class when it comes to law violations the same as when it is a matter of spending. When it is shown ‘that there are in- dividuals in this country who are worl ing for the overthrow of the govern- ment as that clique in Chicago was it is| certainly time that ‘all thought of leniency should be abandoned. Thay ‘went into their undertaking ‘with their eyes open. They knew ~iat they had reason to expect and certainly they ought not to be permitted to sway jus- tice just because they happen to be in control of & million or two, RUSSIA. In spite of the demonstrations that have been glven of the type of govern- ment that has been provided in Russia since bolshevism raised its head therc, there are those who have persistently called for the recognition of the govern- ment that has been -established there. There are those who would have us en- ter into relationship with Russia quite the same as with other governments which we do business with. It s pointed out that Russia of to- day is not the Russia that galned such notoriety following the revolution. That there: have' béen changes thers is un- questioned. Even those who were re- sponsible for the rankest kind of gov- ernment in that country have come toj realize_that they were wrong and that it ‘could not be made to go. Possi- Dy there are more changes there than we are fully aware of, and yet they hgven't been so complete and so con- vincing that they have made an tmpres- sion upon the government of this coun- try sufficient to change its attitude. And there are good reasons for believing THE MAN WHO TALKS ' SOME ANECDOTES CONCERNING CLEMENCEAU. We are’ very much prone herg in America. to swallow idle ‘gossip as au- thoritative statement. Let any light- weight start some fool talk on any sub- ject whatever and it Will at once begin to be peddled from mouth to mouth as serious fact. Of all the inane drivel that floats irvesponsively over the country to- day is that in relation to the supposed failure of prohibition. It is always easier to listen to gossip than it is te search after facts. For the real truth we are not to look to the prejudiced “wet” or to the fanatical “dry.” Hear what an im- ial investigator has to say about it: fford Gordon, financlal director of the Victorian Anti-Liquor league, Australia, was sent to this country to carefully study the actual working of prohibition. Mr. Gordon has visited every state in the union; has talked with “great employers of labor, with labor leaders, with crimin- physicians, alienists, federal, state and city offiicals, private individ- uals, and has even interviewed “the man on the street,” and what is his testimony: “Now, atter 12 months of thorough in- vestigation, I am convinced that prohib tion in the United States has sufceeded.” 'The décrease in the mumber of arrests in New York city for drunkenness be- tween 1915 and 1921 was nearly 300 per cent.; in San Franeisco it was 326 per cent; in Los Angeles it’ was 130 per cent.; n Detroit it was 200 per oent.; in Portland, Ore., it was 300 per cent., and thus the proportion was kept up in all the large citles of the country. He quotes Judge Gemmill of Chicago as saying: “Thece has been & decrease in the num- ber of persons arrested in America for drunkenness of over 600,000 per year.” Twelve years prior to prohibition the va- rious Neal institutions for drunkenness treated more than 125,000 patients. Af- ter prohibition they sre all out of com- ission. In Pittsburgh the county jail 40 cells. and before the gays of peo- hibition there were often as many as 940 prisoners ot a time. During the first year of prohi®tion there were sometimes empty cells. Today there are 315 empty cells. And thus the evidence accumu- lates all along thé line. How many ways there are In commen life in which the old saying proves true: “He tempers the wind to the shorn lamb.” And in this world of oucs there are a great many “shorn lambs.” There are three geneeal ways in which the poor lamb seems to. be “shorn” Some are born ‘into the world “shorn,” and thus they will remain until they get out of it. There are others wio through bad habits or lack of self protection shear them- selves; and thirdly /those who let some body else shear them. To my mind it is an exceedingly difficult proposition” to state with any degree of certainty just how far the “‘shorn lamb” has a right to expect that the winds of life are going to be “tempered” in his behalf. Doe it not depend upon tht degree of his own.ce- sponsibility In the shearing? Undoubt- edly there are fewer “shorn lambs” today than vrior to 1918. If a man shears him- self or lets a-g'her man do it with hi eves wide or®.. has he much of a claim upon the temoered winds? Possibly the theologians can answer this question. Before these lines appear in print it may be that New Encland may exercise as usual her prerogative in taking a som- ersault In weather conditions. but -as these lines are written we are still enjoy- ing wonderfully clear and mild November days. This surely is a sense in which “He tempees the wind to the shorn lamb.” The condition of a majority of coal bins leaves no doubt that the people are “shorn” all right. It certainly is an instance In which they themselves have not been doing the shearing. It may be a question whether the people have been justified in sitting quietly by and allow- ing themselyes thus to be “shorn” by the strikers in the. mines and on the- rafl- roads. Doubtless much suffering h { been averted by the remarkably mild weather, ut no thanks to those who are responsi- ble for the coal shortage. But according to the renort recently made by the state fuel administrator we are not yet out of the woods. It may be that the fleeced lambs will suffer yet. 3 Sclende had determined that it makes little difference what the color of one's eyes s, whethef black or blue or gray— it has no relation to physical strength, The coming of Georges Clemenceau to the United States to speak in per- son to the American people on behalf of France, has brought out a number of anecdotes of “the Grand, Old Man of France” who i# credited *with con- tributing as much, and perhaps move, than any other statesman to bring- ing about the downfall of Germany in the world war by filling France-with the invincible spirit of the conqueror. After'a life-time of viscissitudes, Clemenceau .once declared: “I am younger now than I was ten years ago.” He said this even while carry- ing in his body the bullet of an assas- ein, and while suffering from a brok- en rib sustained while crossing the English Channel. Explaining his remark, the former Premier declared: “Idlenesé and old age are twin sisters. I avoid them. The way to keep youns and vigorous is never to let your mind grow inactive and to work, work, work. Preserve strength of mind and you vanquish age; that is the secret of perpetual youth, “T believe it is weak-minded to grow old,” he told certain members of his suite after his famous anti-bolshevik speech in Strasbourg in 1919. Clemen- ceau’s day had been a hard one, with many receptions, journeys and discus- sions Of serious diplomatic questions but he appeared at dinnér that night fresher than many of his young col- leagues. It was some time before this, while he was on one of his customary jaunts into the country, when he walk- ed 10 or 12 miles without showing very great fatigue, that he discov- ered his now famous retreat, a two- roomed fisherman's hut close to_the seashore, near Ducon, in Vendee. Bare of comforts and conveniences it is just the kind of a shelter the “Tiger” of Francd would seek for a well-earned rest. It is only a short distance from Ithe Premier's birthplace and stands almost alone on the barren sands. Of- ten he walks to the village where he converses with the old town folk, a few of whom knew him as a by. Clemenceau’s rigorous life was con- tinued even after he accepted Presi- dent- Poincare’s invitation to form a war ministry in 1917, when for the second time became premier of France. In civil life he arose with the birds and retired often at sunset. A glass of milk and a few crackers was his usu- al repast at 3 a. m., in summer and 4:30 o'clock in winter. An hour or two later he sat down to a hearty break- fast, the main portion of which was generally a dish of macaroni and cheese with melted butter. Abdut 12:30 | p. m., heindulged in luncheon, a sim- ple affair of a couple of eggs, per- haps, and a few vegetables. Dinner at 7 p. m., was practically meatless, con- sisting largely of vegetables and fruits. He eats very slowly. » During the war the pressure of af- fairs of state often forced him to alter his sleeping habit and thefe were occegions when, for two and three days at a time, the ag- ed premier and minister of war never removed his clothing, but caught snatches of rest of a few minutes' duration on,a lounge in his office. In peacetime, however, Clemenceau. has 4 less strenuous program. In summer, as soon a5 he arises, he takes to his i garden in the rear of his town apart- ment, inspecting the flower beds and the shrubbery and trees, pruning off dead branches and pulling weeds. He thus finds rest from the turmoil of politics and the cares of office. Clemenceay, if is not - generally known, was formerly a_physician. He came to New York in 1866 but aban- doned the practice of medicine to teach school at Stamford, Conn. He mar- ried an American girl in 1869, Miss Mary Plummer, of New York, and re- turned to France a few years later. He entered the French National As- sembly in 1871, became president of the municipal council of Paris in 1875, and was elected to the chamber of deputies in 1876. In 1837 he declined an ipvitation of the _President of Frante te form a ministry. In the generdl wreck of French politicians caused by the Panama scandal of 1892, he failed of reelection to the chamber, ithe Peace Treaty by the Supreme In- | LIBRE, a paper so bitterly anti-ad- ministration that it was suppressed. Soon after it reappeared in Bordean: under the name of L'HOMME z:\,\ CHAINE. Clemenceau refused to be silenced in exposing government ab- uses_growing out of the war. When the Bolo Pasha and Caillaux revela- tions awakened France to- her peril, revelations largely brought about by Clemenceau, the “Tigerds” popularity became nationwidé. President Poin- care called upon the veteran states- man in November 1917, when all France was depressed by the defeat- ist propaganda and her troops were suffering sorely in the field, to head a new War Ministry. Interpellated in the chanfber of dep- uties as to what his “war.aim” would be, the white-haired premier replied: “My aim is to be a_victor.” He ex- pressed at this time his opposition to receiving Germany into any society of nations which, might be formed ai- ter the war, and declared: “Men of great minds believe that words have the power to liberate. The word ‘right’, the word ‘justice’ the word ‘liberty’, are words as old as man. Many thinkers believe some mi- racie will suddenly end the war and produce a Soclety of Nations. I do not believe it. 1 am here for action. 1 cannot see that a society of nations is the necessary conclusion of the present war.” Later, however, he ap- proved of the league of nations' cov- ‘enant. Speaking in the Erench senate in 1917 he declared: “We will fight un- til the hour when’the enemy comes to understand timt bargaining be- tween crime and right is no longer possible. We want a just dhd strong peace, protecting the future against| the abominations of the past.” “We have walited 49 yea moment,” he was quoted as » June 25, 1819, when the German note accepting the Treaty of Peace was recelved at Versailles. “This is life's biggest moment for me. i ‘When the turn of the tide came in the west, when the last German “drive” had| spent -itself and the Allies were | breaking the Hindenburg line, he said: | “The day of glory has come! Our! sons are completing “the formidable task of thelr fathers and with broth- erly nations are securing n #ipreme victory. All right-minded b ¢ anity is | with our troops who are liberating | the world from the fury of an evil force.” Shot by the 19-year old anarchist, | Emile Cotton, on Feb. 2, 1919, Clem- | enceau joked with the doctor who'! attended. “The anarchists hunted the ‘tiger' but they missed him,” he re- | marked. Cotton was sentenced to death, but Clemenceau urged com- | mutation and the youth received 10| ‘Wilson called to express his sympathy the aged statesman told him his ‘hide” was “too thick for a bullet to pierce." Upon the completion of the Araft of ter-Allied _ conference, _Clemenceau, | who had presided at -the historical gathering; bade his colleagues adieu with the observation: “I have do my best. 1 think it is a good peace. ‘Although a radical in French poii- tias, Clemenceau had no use for bol- snevism. Questioned about the Rus- sian situation in December of 1919 | he said: “We not ‘only will not make | peace, but we will not compromise with the government of the soviets. We have decided that we will be the allies of all peoples attacked by. Bol- shevism.” He at the same time ex- pressed his confidence in the Anglo- Franco-American agreements and pré- dicted a solution of the Fiume prob- em. > “The Fiume, question has been ag- onizing,” he .declared. “Italy promis- ed Fiume to the Jugo-Slavs but went back on her promise. France En- gland and the United States have sought a solution and the latest indi- cations are that it will be reached. On- ly when this ig accomplished can we begin to breathe freely.” Clemenceau's address at Strasbourg in November of 1919, referred to at the time as “his political valedietory to France,” was & remarkable plea years' imprisonment.

The dictionery says that a statesman “is one versed in the vrinciples and art of government,” whife a politi- clan is one “versed or experienced in the science of government.” To the lay mind it is difficult to see the difference. Web- ster makes the tw, t synonymous, If this is true, the statesman can be the poli- ticlan, ‘and the politiclan the statesman. But the word “politician,” unfortunately, admits of a secondary meaning as “one primarily devoted to his own advance- ment ih public: office.” The word “states. man” is never used in this connection. This then 15 the ordinary distinction we make betweell the ‘two: the statesman works only for his country, while the.poli- ticlan works only for himself, and he works oveetime. ~ Te it to maw's advantage, or otherwise, that this-visible, material world furnishes him nothing stable?
