Q
OUR LAND
President of Am. Tree
SPRINGFIELD. Mass" Dec. 11.—
Asking what had happened to the
widely, heralded New England thrift.
Charles Lathrop Pack. president of
the American Tree Association of
Washington, D. (3.. last night. told
the second New England Forestiy
Congress that the ten million acres
of idle land in this birthplace of
thrift would have to be put to work
as one of the first steps in solving
the section‘s industrial problems.
Mr. Pack referred to the recent
industrial Conference at Worcester
and said that lifting a six million
dollar annual freight bill on import-
ed lumber from the backs of indus-
try’ would go a long way toward
helping the situation. The speaker
pointed to the astonishing fact that
New England produces only twelve
per cent. of the lumber she uses in
her varied industries. On this point
Mr. Pack says:
'l'lirll't Gone?
‘Whnt has happened to the w-iely
heralded New England thrift that we
hear so much about? The leading
exponent of the New England brand
is the New Englander in the White
House. 1 have been taught that New
Englanders dislike idleness U! na-
ture does a vacuum. Yet the Society
. fer the Protection of New Hamp-
shire Forests says there are ten mil-
lion aeres of idle forest land in New
England. this birthplace of thrift.
“That idle land costs you New Eng.
lenders 3. lot of money. Experts say
you are paying six million dollars
every year in freight to import the
lumber you use. In New Hampshire
alone there are two million acres of
idle forest land. Do you know that
New England producu‘only twelve
per cent. of the timber it uses and
because of this some of the new
buildings of New Hampshire are
built of Oregon pine?
“If this remarkable business situa.
tion faced a corporation and not the
American people, it would have been
solved long ago. The business con~
cern would have to solve it or be-
come bankrupt. The situation is
imple. It_ is a timber crop every
ear close to the points of greatest
consumpiton. ' '
“I beginnling to lose faith in
New ngland thrift. I am almost
. tempted to believe there is nothing
in it after all and that the rest of us
ordinary folks. not of chosen New
England. have been bamboozled to
some extent in the past.
"Well there is a ray of sunshine.
In Massachusetts the town forest
idea. is' being pushed to good advan-
tage. _, As set forth in “Town , For-
pests’P- by Mr. Harris A. Reyn‘olds and
published by the American. Tree As-
sociation the ‘ 'idea ‘- has ‘ spread
through the state. ‘lt has many town
forests. It will have more. Other

Encouraging Signs
"There are other encouraging
signs in New England. At the sug-
gestion of Governor Billings. the
Vermont Co-operntion Council. The
Governor is the honorary,chalrman
of that organization which aims to
further the welfare of that state.
Here indeed is progress because the
but recently been organized.
"I w t to say to New Hampshire.
Vcrmo and all New England that
the welfare of this or any other sec-
tion of the United States cannot be
furthered without giving the ques—
tion of an annual tree crop everyl
your close to the point of consumpu
tion the first consideratoln. All
your industries and your further.
economic supremacy is bound up in
the Job of putting idle lax-«l to work
The slate of Vor-
niont is to be congratulated on this
forward step.
"You felled trees to make way for
forms. and then factories, mill to-
day there is a heavy drag on indus-
try. Your acres fitted for nothing
but growing trees must be planted
just: as corn and wheat are planted.
There must be a timber crop every
year.
"In Maine there is one state nur-
sery with a. capacity of 200.000
young trees a year and an endow.
ment of $1.000 this year from the
legislature. This fund falls for short
of meeting the demand.
"New Hampshire..- n well-educated
State from the forestry viewpoint.
has increased its nursery appropria-
tion from $5,000.10 $12,000 in an en.
deavor to meet the demand.
“In Vermont there is an active do-
mand. which was met by the distri.‘
butlon this year of about 1.300.000
trees to 234 planters. This nearly
doubles the record of last year. and
still the. demand swells.
In Massachusetts.
“Massachusetts-one of the. most
forest-wise States, is building up a.
State forest system and has educated
the people to an active demand for
reforestation. In six expanding our.
series, the State is foster parent to
more than fifteen million trees. but
the requests for planting stock at
cost have to be filled in the order
received and the late comers are left
out. The rapid expansion of the
town'and 'other forest-ideas in Mas-
sachusetts makes large demands for
planting stock also.
“Rhode Island does not maintain
a State nursery and the demands for
young .trees have to be supplied pri-
vately. ' .
"Connecticut has been aiming at
real forest nursery work and a bill
before the Legislature this year
New England states ' aro' 1011051th
9. .‘;
“NorIIiMaiaStrest,
of state activity. Through the in-
sistancc of prIVato nurserymon. how-
ever. the bill was amended to restrict
the use of State-grown young trees
0 State land.
“The outlook is encouraging on
the whole. New Englani can do a
wonderful service to herself and the
country by putting her idle land to
work. An annual trees crop will as.
sure her economic position. Think
what it would mean to take six mil-
lion dollars a your in freight. rates
on lumber out of her cost of produc-
tion and put it back in the pockets
0f the consumer! it would mean six
million dollars more buying power.
therefore increased prosperity all
around. I predict that when put up
to New England thrift in this way
.-
New England thrift will handle 11101
question."
POLICE HEAD’S
BROTHER HELD
FOR MURDER
CORNING. N. Y.. Dec. 11. (A. P.)
-Michael J. Enrlght. brother of
Police Commissioner Richard E. En-
right of New York. taken into cus- ‘
tody yesterday near Campbell in}
connection with the brutal murder
of Timothy Shay. farm laborer. will‘
probably face a charge .of first dc-'
greo murder. District Attorney (iuyi
\V.-Cheney of Corning said tonight. '
The results of his investigation i
warranted that charge. Mr. Cheney
said. and added that he would ask
Sheriff W. 0. Page to make such
an information.
The farm on which the murder
was committed is owned by Com-
missioner Enright and is operated
by his brother. Michael Enright.
Michael, however. had not been at
the farm for a. month.
District Attorney Cheney's investi-
gation, developed that a drunken
brawl had taken place which. the
officials declare resulted in tho mur-
der Michael Enright. when ques-
tioned. declared that he and Shay
were at' the" farmhouse last night
drinking and that he retired at. 8
o'clock. leaving Shay alone. When
he arose at 7 o'clock yesterday
mornifig he missed Shay and at 10
o'clock found the body. he said. in a
ditch about" 30 feet from the house.
He denied any knowledge of how
the murder occurred.
State troopers found Enright
standing in the yard. his shirt and
trousers covered with blood. in the
kitchen was found a rag on which
some Ono lid wiped bloody hands
and near the rear door was found
an axe smeared with blood and hair.
