"My government recognizes that the Monroe doctrine consolidates the Independence of tho continental states of Latin America and saved them from the great danger of a European Intervention. It realizes that It Is a powerful factor In the existence of the democratic form of government lu this conti nent and that It raised a barrier to European colonization. "Since however, the covennnt of the Leagtto of Nations does not deter mine the purposes nor fix u definite criterion of International relationship In America, find since, on the other hand, the doctrine will be forthwith trans formed In view of tho full sanction, of the nntlons of the world Into a prln ciple'of universal public law, Juris ot de Jure, I request that your excellency will bo good enough to give the authentic Interpretation of the Monroe doc trine, as It Is understood In the present historical moment." "Stop Throwing Forests' Into the Waste Baskets!" orOP throwing the forests of tho country Into your waste basket," Is the U message sent to the business houses of the country by the American Forestry association, which Is enlisting the nld of the schools, business houses, and women's organizations In a pa- per conservation campaign. Charles Lathrop Pack, president of tho association, has given out llg uros which show the tremendous In crease In pulp wood consumption. In congress the subject has come up for frequent discussion. Here are the figures submitted by Mr. Pack, who calls for a nntlonal forest policy and for better lire protection for the forests, in cords con sumed and vnlue: 1SS9 . 1.9S6.310 9,837,510 INK) 4.001.C07 31,477,540 1916 J. 5,228,558 45.7S5.CS2 "A look at those figures will cause some deep thinking on the part of publishers." said Mr. Pack. "We must stop throwing our forests Into the waste basket.

One of the first organizations to In Its campaign for paper conservation is the National Woman's Association of Commerce of Chicago. Miss Florence King, the president, has Issued a call to ull members connected with business houses to start tho agitation at once. "Boiling" Senators .Give Soldier a "Square Deal" SENATOKS got excited the other day over the matter of soldiers nnd the loss of their private property. In consequence the senate passed a bill to amend the act now in force and give the' soldier a better chanco to recover from Uncle Sam. Senator Wads worth CANT AUow ir You wwEttT sk no fault of tljolr own. However, a series of decisions by the officials of the-treasury department have placed such restrictions on the law as to preclude favorable consideration of n majority of the claims which have been filed. These decisions are brlelly summarized ns follows: The auditor has disallowed all claims for property lost by fire unjess claimants can certify that the loss occurred while tho claimant wns engaged lu saving government property. The comptroller has ruled that "money" Is not nn article of property. The comptroller has recently decided that property lost In Franco can not be considered as having been lost "in the field during campaign," unless the claimant wis actually in the battle line. This decision will affect prac tically all losses of personal bnggtige In tho field other than that In course of transportation. Senator Wndsworth said the committee on military affairs "boiled with Indlgnntlon," and Its purpose was to give tho soldier a "square deal." Great War Makes Many Millionaires in America AMEKICA'S millionaires Increased by 1,470 In tho first year of the wnr In Europe. During the second year the Increase was twice as great, for In 1U10 there were 'J,80!t more millionaires than In 1010. And In 1018, while tho net growth was only .11. the true situntlon rests In the old saying, "Illm who has gets I" Tho increases of that year were in Increased Incomes of those Included in the totals of years gone by. Distribution of these new million aires throughout tho country shows them thickest where war activities were greatest, with New York state alono having 2,888. Nevada was the only state that didn't claim a million aire resident In 1017, but her million aires live elsewhere, that's- all. Of American millionaires, capitalists as a group made up 3,383 of tho total; manufacturers who made war material 020. and tho producers of food, 120. Corporation officials numbered 710 millionaires. The largest Income In 1017 was $34,030,001. Tho mnn claimed to ho unmarried, which mrikes him appear to be Standard Oil's daddy, J. D, Rocke feller. A "single woman" received $r,704,r50. She may have been Mrs. E. II. llnrrlman. In the great group of excessively rich over tho United States there were 227 classed as "single women." From these lutest avallablo figures It Is shown that Individuals through the Income tax returns contributed In 1018 on their 1017 Incomes a great total of $301,480,177, while corporations In the same period yielded Undo Sam's ttrong boxes Just $2,142,44 5,700.

Is good (Irnlttnge. So long as the wnter can bo kept from penetrating deeply Into these roads they will remain at least fairly passable. To accomplish this on aver age earth roads, however, Is far from ensy. During the early part of this season of the year rains are often of long duration and tend to saturate the soil. Water from melting snows Is perhaps even more penetrating than long-continued rains, whllo alternate freezing and thawing of the wet sur face tends to Increase the porosity of tho soil and permit oven more ready access of water Into tho foundation. The chief attention of the road mnn must therefore be directed toward getting and keeping the water away from the rond. So long ns tho founda tion can be kept dry, even a heavy freeze followed by a rapid thaw will do little or no real damage to. the roatl surface. A dry soil does not heave. The foundation will thcreforo still bo solid, and the road will be able to sustain the traffic without serious rut ting. On the other hand n saturated soil expands greatly on freezing, and when It thnws out has not only lost practically all power of sustaining tho weight of trnfile, hut also Is In nn Ideal condition for taking up or absorbing still more water, and thus forming still more mud. During the early part of the season, ns long as tho weather Is very rainy or there Is melting snow on the ground It will pay to have tho road man go over the road dally to see that the drains and side ditches do not hecotno clogged and to note tho need of any necessary repairs. A few minutes' work with a shovel may prevent a so rlous washout or dnmnges. which, If not promptly checked, might make tho road practically Impassable. The rond drag or somo other slmllnr device finds its greatest usefulness during this season. It may ho used to good advantage to clear tho road way of slush and melting snow nnd so prevent this water from soaking Into mm Drag Most Useful in Spring. nnd softening tho subgrnde. To fill ruts smooth the surface and maintain the crown of tho road, the drag Is un i excelled when In the hnnds of n skilled operator. An unskilled mnn amy do moro harm than good. Fur thcrmore, tho nctunl condition of tho rond during this period will depend very largely on the knowledge of tho rond man ns to' Just when to drag, ns well as his skill In the operation of tho implement. In addition to tho mnlntennnce, pro vision should he made for doing nil necessary grading or earth work as rurly in the spring ns possible, In or tier that It may become thoroughly con olldatcd before the dry weather of summer. If the work Is done too Into (lie road will not only probably be nunc very dusty in dry weather but u III need additional attention later In the fall. Where tho soil Is a heavy -lay or gumbo tho condition of tho road may ho very materially Improved hv adding sand from tlmo to time ns hat already on the road Is worked In by the passing traffic and t.ho drag. PROVIDE RUNWAY FOR WATER Plenty of Space Should Be Allowed in Rebuilding Bridge or Culvert Repair Costs Cease. Whenever a bridge or culvert Is re built use somo form of permanent construction, seeing to it mat plenty of runway Is allowed for tho water. Then repair costs-will virtually cease, nnd tho money now wasted will begin to show In ronds that are good 12 months In the year.
