THE SUNDAY STAR. AVASIII.H >X. D. C.. JUNE 22. 1930—PART ONE. FUNDS FOR FOREST 1 PROTECTION URGED Body Headed by Forestry Group, President Confers With Hyde. Adequate forest protection appropri- ations in 1932 would make the large emergency sums, amounting to $3.300 - 000. voted by the present Congress un- necessary. George D. Pratt, president of .'the American Forestry Association has Informed Secretary of Agriculture Hyde. x according to a statement issued by the association yesterday. With a group representing forestry, lumber and farm organizations. Mr. Pratt met with Secre- * tary Hyde recently to discuss forestry appropriations. For the year beginning July 1. 1931. Mr. Pratt urged, appropriations for the various phases of forest protection con- ducted by the Department of Agricul- ture should approximate $9,000,000 “The machinery of the Federal Govern- ment and of the several states is now in a position to use this amount of money efficiently,'’ he added. The need of this amount is shown dramatically In last year's fire record, according to Mr. Pratt, who points out that the fires of 1929 exceeded those of 1928 in area burned and In the value of timber consumed. The area exceeded that of the previous year by two-and- one-half million acres and the economic loss by $20,000,000, bringing the total estimate of damage to more than SIOO,- 000,000. The amount named, said Mr. Pratt trould provide a small Increase for funds to be used in preventing and suppress- ing fires on national forests. It would bring the fund for protection improve- ments of national forests equal to those authorized in the Englebright bill, which received the approval of the Bureau of the Budget, although it has not yet been favorably acted upon by Congress It would increase by $400,000 the funds available to the State foresters and would leave only $400,000 between the actual appropriation and the authoriza- tion as carried In the Clarke-McNary law. The representatives of the organiza- tions who conferred with the Secretary of Agriculture on forestry appropria- tions included George D. Pratt, presi- dent of The American Forestry Associa- tion: W M. Ritter of the National Lum- ber Manufacturers’ Association. Prof. Ralph S. Hosmer.

IDAHO RUM REVOLT DUELLED BY JURY Officials Convicted of Using Liquor Levies to Pay City Expenses. Br the Associated Press. COEUR D'ALENE. Idaho. June 21 The second Shoshone County "rum re- bellion'* was quelled today, as a Federal jury convicted 32 Wallace residents of using liquor levies to pay the city’s ex- penses. The* mayor, the former mayor, the chief of police and the former sheriff, j alleged ring leaders, and 28 others were found guilty of conspiracy because of the city's admitted policy of assessing saloons and gambling halls for money to "build viaducts and bridges and things for the school fund.” Thus, in Wallace as at Mullan. re- cently, officials will be swept out of of- j flee and into jail for carrying on poli- cies they said have been "in vogue" j ever since Idaho went dry. Government witnesses testified Mayor W. H. Herrick used to “fine” the liquor dealers for “overtime parking,” the as- wMmfnU being put in the police docket. They said Herrick’s successor, H. J. Rossi, later decided this was illegal and then dispensed "city park rent receipts" for the rum money. The defense offered no testimony. In arguments however, defense coun- sel said the Oovernment had proved no conspiracy; that payment might have been made to the city but this was de- scribed as "an old Wallace custom." constituting no deliberate conspiracy to break the law. and that there was no personal graft. The Jury deliberated three hours after taking the case last night. The German Housewives Association has opened an "eat more rye bread" campaign to aid the sale of the Oer- man rye crop.
