Speakers Stress Ecoviomic 1

Value of Forest,

* The value of a “living memorial” ‘to President Benjamin Harrison © was stressed by speakers at a luncheon meeting of the Harrison Memo‘rial commission yesterday. - “Meeting in the Indianapolis Ath~ “letic club, members of the commis‘sion and guests discussed the pro-

* posed. Harrison Memorial national

forest, already approved by the Indiana general assembly and now * &walting congressional action, _ Stephen C. Noland, chairman of . the commission, sketched the history of the proposed memorial forest. He cited President Harrison's proclaiming of forest reserves, which later became national parks, as evidence of his interest in conservation. Cites Economic Benefits . Rudolph Grabow, U.S. forest supervisor for Indiana and principal speaker at yesterday's meeting, dis- ” cussed the economic value of such a forest. Mr. Grabow referred to 3,000,000 acres of land in southern Indiana which need “rebuilding” because of serious erosion. The reforestation work contemplated in the Harrison Memorial national forest would eventually restore to full usefulness some 780,000 acres of that land. Mrs, William H. Schlosser of

Frénklin, representing the D.A.R.|

on the Harrison Memorial commission, and John F. Mitchell Jr. of Greenfield, another commission member, also spoke. Mr. Noland attributed economic decline in certain areas of southern Indiana to the decay of the woodworking industry following depletion of the native forests. At one time wood working was sufficiently important for Evansville alone to have some 60 woodworking fagiories, he said. - Project Called Self- Liquidating Mr. Noland also called attention to the “self-liquidating” feature of the memorial forest plan whereby . the controlled annual sale of timber would provide revenue. Besides the proposed national for- _ est, the memorial to President Har‘rison will include a library and an institute of forestry to be built in Marion county. Under the commission’s plan, the institute, intended for post-graduate study by foresters from throughout the country, will be connected with Purdue university. The commission also recommended the purchase of the Benjamin Harrison mansion at 1230 N.

EX-STRONG MAN OF MEXICO DIES

Plutarco Calles Once Closed Nation’s Churches.

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 20 (U. P.) — Funeral services for Plutarco Elias Calles, 68, former ‘strong man” of Mexico, awaited the arrival today of two of his sons from the United.

States. Calles, who ruled Mexico for 20 years through his own regime as President and through the presidents he put in power, died yesterday in the British-American hospital here. Calles died as he wanted to, on Mexican soil. He returned from a five-year exile in the United States in 1941, The “Tiger of Sonoro” started many of Mexico's current reforms. It was he who first enforced the laws limiting the extent of foreign holdings of land, water and mineral rights in the Mexican republic. He gave the government ownership of all petroleum deposits over the protests of the United States, Britain and France, who attacked his measures as “confiscatory.” Once Closed Churches He attracted world-wide attention in his fight with the church to end its influence in governmental affairs. Convinced that the clergy held too much power ‘ over his people and that their influence had not been beneficial to the masses, he banned the clergy from the educational system, and at the height of the controversy closed the churches. The late U. 8. Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow, who had worked out a solution for the controversy over the petroleum seizures, obtained compromise between Calles and the Vatican, but it followed closely Calles’ original terms which stripped the church of much of its property. Calles was a maker of presidents and generals and a suppressor of revolutions. Achieved Stability He gave Mexico a national bank, stabilized its currency, gave its government stability, and started a nationwide system of roads and

irrigation systems. After retiring from the presidency in 1928 he continued to wield almost dictatorial powers until 1936 when he disagreed with leftist policies of President hazaro Cardenas and was forced. into exile at San Diego, Cal. Calles’ two sons, Plutarco, 13, and Leonardo, 14, ate students at San Rafael, Cal, military academy.
