(Continued from Page 8) advising those who would like to write. Wendell Robie sends in the story of a preacher of California Gold Rush days, whose motto for public speaking was: "Get chock full of the su,bject, .pull out the bung, and let her caper." He got that from the Placer'Herald, dated September 18th, 1852. The philosophy is as good now as it was then; and always will be. Wendell Phillips, a gteat orator, once said: "Do you want to be an orator? First, get you a great cause."

The Wall Street ;o.rrtlt it;.. sorpe., oPA official as saying that if the laws could be enforced nearly evervbody in the building material business in the Boston, Massachusettes, area would go to'jail. Thal'pas a masterly understatement. It looks from where we sit as though, if the OPA rules were to be enforced nationally, more than one hundred million Americans would go to jail. For OPA has created for us a law-breaking epoch of Black-Market design that makes tt'e prohibition era of a generation back look like an innocent Sunday School picnic by comparison.

Inevitably, when I read and hear the great call going up for food for the unfortunate people of this unfortunate world, my mind goes back to those days not so long since, when this nation pursued a grand campaign to destroy food crops. We killed and we plowed under unbelievable quantities of cotton and food. The world was hungry then as the result of world-wide depression. But we went about slaughtering and plowing under as though too great an abundance was destroying the land. Why the men who promoted that horror were never locked up in a psychopathic ward, was diffi.cult to understand.

One winter day I drove through the sugar bowl country of Southern Louisiana. And there I saw a terrible sight. They were plowing under nearly forty thousand acres of growing sugar cane. The crop was two to three feet high then, and was worth nearly four million dollars at that stage. And it was in a country that had never raised enough sugar for its own needs. But they were plowing it under

They tell about a beautiful New York glamour girl, who t always dated the older men, rather than the glamour boys, rand when asked why, said she got diamonds from the oldsters. "What can you get from these youngsters?" "!" asked. Someone answered: "Memories." And the wise girl replied: "Where can you hock memories?" >k**

And two drunks met in a bar. After a time they became :l so friendly that one of them unwrapped a package he car,ried and disclosed a big, beautiful lobster, ready for the oven. He gave it to his drunk friend. The friend said: "It's beautiful. I'll take it home for dinner." And the other drunk said: "He's already had his dinner. Take him to a movie." ***

Arizona air got a great boost the other day when a Michigan citizen recently returned from an Arizona trip to his home in that state, told the Detroit Free Press: "I think it is the original air that God intended the human race to breathe before Adam began making passes ?t Evs."

Young Trees and Young Men--The Future Of Forestry in the Douglas Fi, Region

Seattle, Wash., May 2-"The productive power of the Douglas fir forest is the greatest economic asset which the people of this region possess," C. H. Kreienbaum, president of the West Coast Lumbermen's Association, declared in a recent address be{ore the Alumni of the College of Forestry, University of Washington.

'1Of the lands logged here in the past half century, a substantial proportion is rvell stocked with fast growing young timber of every age, from the date of the earliest cutting down to and including the year follorving the last good local seed crop. Wherever these areas are found to be clevoid of a second crop, the answer is quite plainFIRE."

to do it to get the benefit payments. I watched that infamy in progress, and I talked with a little "Cajun" Frenchman, who was watching wistfully as the destruction progressed. I said to him: "Do you think that God will forgive the fools who are guilty of this crime?" And he said: "I'ope not." So did I. And I still continue in that hope. Al Jolson used to say that he wished he knew the language of animals so that he could ask the skunk what the hell was the big idea? I've longed ever since for a chance to ask the mental Liliputians who engineered the wholesale destruction of our crops and pigs and cattle in those days, that same question. Most of our food troubles from that day on, stemmed from that infamY' *< * !t

And then there was the lumber buyer who asked a mill the price of some cull lumber that was lying around, and was t-old he could have it for the ceiling price-$120 a thousand. He said: "You don't call that the ceiling price, do you?" And the itrill man said: "Sure, the Black Market ceiling."

Entitled "Young Trees and Young Men-the Future of Forestry in the Douglas Fir Region," and now released by the Association, Mr. Kreienbaumls message projects great prornise for the forestry profession in the Pacific Northwest, but with reservations and u'arnings. Solution of the forest fire problem is vital to our forest future, he points out, and so is sustained yield on a cooperative basis between government and private owners.

"It is well known," says the WCLA president, "that today's timber demand-supply situation dictates that the balance of old growth timber must be used over the periocl necessary to bring our young stands along to han'est age. The greatest single event in our time, rvhich is going to help make this possible, is the advent of cooperative sustained yield."
