HUNSMUSTPAY
IN LUMBER FOR
CASUALTIES
WASHINGTON , April 1.—“Ger
many will find that France will insist
lgpon Germany’s paying in lumber lor
the casualties of the French forests
which were destroyed during the
war,” declares P. S. Ridsdale, secre
tary of the American forestry associa
tion, who has just returned from a
tour of the allied countries.
Mr. Ridsdale went to Europe to in
vestigate forest losses in France, Bel
gium, Italy and Great Britain so that
the American forestry association
might determine how America could
help to replace the destroyed forests
of Europe, by presenting forest seed
to the various governments.
“In northern France many of the
forests,” he says, “have been so badly
smashed by shell, shrapnel and rifle :
fire, or so badly cut for trench tim
bers, fuel wood and other supplies for
the contending sfrrtiies that'they have
been virtually destroyed. They can
be restored only by replanting. The
agricultural land lying Detween the
forests in various sectors of the battle
front have been so torn to pieces by
shell fire that it is no longer service
able for agriculture, and, like the de
vastated forests, will have to be plant
3d with forest tree seed so that in
years to come the shell holes may be
filled by gradual erosion and the
humus of the soil restored. Then the
replanted forests may be cut down
ind the land worked over and restored
for agricultural use.
“The peace delegates are now hav
ing prepared data upon the losses in
:he French forests, and France jpeans
:o insist upon a large amount of cut
ting in the German forests so that she
nay be provided with lumber for re
jonstruction purposes as a part of the
ndemnlty which Germany will be re
quired to pay for the damage which
las been inflicted.
“Italy, Belgium and Great Britain
will make similar requests, for they,
oo, have suffered forest losses, and
hey, too, need lumber in large quan
ities and believe that Germany
ihould supply it to the extent of her
ibility.”
Mr. Rldsdale expects that the
American forestry association, by
securing large quantities of forest
tree seed next fall, will be able ma
terially to assist America's European
allies in restoring their forests.

BISHOP DOES NOT WANT
TO LIVE IN A CASTLE
LONDON, April 1.—Whether a
bishop should be compelled to live in
a castle regardless of his own desire
for a more modest and less expensive
home is a question which is agitating
the clerical authorities of the diocese
of Worcester. Dr. Earnest Harold
Pearce recently was consecrated
Bishop of Worcester. In the course
of a sermon it was declared that no
bishop really wanted to live In a castle
and that if the people of his diocese
required him to do so, the financial re
sponsibilities should be borne by
them, not him.
