GREATER FAMINE AHEAD. In less than twenty yt-ara !5 per cent of the pulp and paper mills of the country, mainly those in the East, iil hav practically exhausied their supplies of spruce, hemlock and fir the principal woods from which the paper on which newspapers ;.re printed is made. The annual cutting of these woods in the New Kngiand slates ard New Yot is hp proximately ",262.000 cords. aM at this rate the supply will last approximately r enters er; The etir.;tei anuual cutting lu the Lake stcte is 3.0S0.000 ccid", and if continied will exhauH the supply in that region within eighteen years. Pennsylvania. Maryland. Virginia, and North Carolina, with their smaller fore it resources, are even woraa off, the annual cutting being calculated at 1,470.000 cords, at which rate the spruce, hemlock and fir will last but ten years. Only in Alaska. Washington. Oregon and California are the reserves lu no immediate danger of exhauetioa if the cutting continues at the present rate ef 2, 21$, 000 cords a year. The data accumulated give additional emph.icis to the demand for a nation-wide policy that will put privately owned forests on a' permanently productive basis ani will also reult in utilizing mill waste for papr AN OVERLOOKED POINT. Sir George Patfh, who ia In the United States as representative of BrKish interests active in plans for haftenlr.e the rehabilitation of Europe, has the serious attention cf American nancirs. Whi'e he is willing to accept any practical scheme Americans decide upon, so long 88 action la taken in good time to forestall the disaster he IVar?, in common with others in possession of the facts. h is putting forward a suggestion for a world bond issue through which there will be a pooling of credits. Other proposals for international financial pooling failed to meet with favor and especially did not secure the Interest of Americans, although since last offered there seems to be a clearer comprehension of conditions in Europe. Ltit one thing is pure every country in Europe seeking relief must do is share of the work. Crediirt which put ll-irope in the position of re'.'hing a form of charitahlf assistance and America as hj" road;- giver, will not remove or appreciably change op inion.0 over 'here. Europe cannot exist pe'-rjarently on eredit? or charity. There must be production and heuvy production restore lhe !ost balance of trade and rxebange, and pro!-.cr jfn cannot be resume'! so long rs Europe remains an armed camp. There is too much i'-Ak of politics, national auibitior.a, bonnlries and rriliitiiriiJUi. and not enough of ror'i.

150,000 or more per annum waa about Jl,900.00i.

No doubt there are many people who think that these salaries represent mere favoritism, and that no man can have eo much more ability than the average man aa to make him fairly worth bo much more than the average rate of pay. It may be assumed that it Government ownership was made permanent no such salaries would be paid by the railroads, and that the men able to command such pay would be allowed to seek other Hues of business. It is possibly true that there are many men in the country with as good native ability as these railroad executives, and who with the t.ame experience would make equally capable ofilcials, but not having had the necessary training, or proved their capacity, they are not on the list of eligible when a railroad president i;; to be selected. A Hoard of Directors which is about to select a man for a responsible position, where large sums of money are to be disbursed, and v. here his decisions may make or ave sums vastly in excess of his salary, naturally will pay more for a man of proven qualifications than for one of whom little is known. There is no sensible individual who will not do the same in his private butdnesa. The high pay is based upon a record which affords proof of capacity. It is the competitive market price for demonstrated worth, and the reward for a successful career. The Railway Age calls attention to the fact that the?e officials ure usually men who have spent many years in the railroad service, rising by promotion through many grades and thus becoming fitted for the positions of executive supervision and responsibility. These are the prizes of the railroad world, tending to hold young men of ambition and ability in the profession as against, the opportunities which eist in other lines of effort. The Idea of limiting pay in the railroad service is a part of the general theory which lays emphasis upon regulation, restriction and liuiitition of effort and leveling down of achievements, instead of upon stimulating effort and achievements. If the salaries of the 200 who received $20,000 or more had been uniformly $20,000 the total of payments would have been J 4.000.000. The xce.s over this wr. $2,644,000. which figures In total expenditures that year of about $2,828,000,000. The average number of all employes in that year was 1.732.703.. and if thi excess had been divided among them equally the amount to each would have been about $t.-",0.
