DESERT FEARS OF RANGE AREA ARE SI INSTANTIATED SAN FRANCISCO, (UP) -- A strong likelihood that the great American range soon may become the “great American desert" is seen here in a report issued by F. A. Silcox, head of the department of agriculture’s forestry service. The ’49er, on his way to the gold fields of the west, was confronted by a vast stretch of range extending through the Dakotas, Nebraska, and Texas- an imense region of rolling grass land, parched deserts and rugged mountains. It was inhabited only by Indians, herds of bufalo, elk and other‘animals. It had treacherous rivers that had to be forded, long stretches without water, and mud, dust, blistering heat and sudden snowstorms. The ’49ers called it the Great American desert, li't'e suspecting that it would proi ace five times more wealth, through pasturage of live stock, than all the gold they could mine in California. Today however, Silcox's report, made at the request of the United States senate, indicates that this territory may really rever* to desert land. It has been dangerously depleted by grazing, an unsound land policy and soil erosion. The report reveals the following facts: 1. The range area of 72S 000.000 acres is nearly 40 per cent ot the total land area of the continental United States. 2. Forage depletion for the entire range area averages more than half, the result of a few decades of livestock grazing. 3. Three-fourths of the entire area have declined during the last 30 years, and only 16 per cent has been improved. 4. During the same period, 93 per cent of the public domain and graz-

ing districts has gone down grade and only 2 per cent has improved. 5. An outstanding cause of range depletion has been -xcessive stocking. Some 17,300.000 head of animals are grazing on ranges which it is estimated can carry only 10.800,000. 6. About seven-tenths of the area, or 523.000.000 acres, still is subject to virtually unrestricted grazing. 7. Precipitation averages less than one-third that of the middle west and east. 8. One to four drouth years out of every ten characterize virtually all the range area. 9. Unsuitable land laws have made of the range a bewildering mosiac of different kinds of ownership and of economic units, which constituted a serious obstacle to range management and profitable livestock production. 10. Most spectacular among the maladpustments of range land use has been the attempt to use more than 50.000,000 acres for dry farming. About half, ruined for forage production for years to come, has been abandoned by farmers. In an attempt to remedy the present conditions, Silcox suggested the following: 1. End to soil and forage depiction. 2. Reduction of excessive stocking. 3. Restoration of cheap range feed. 4. Placing of all range lands under competent management and rectifying of land ownership and use of maladjustments. 5. A sound distribution of ownership between between private and public agencies. 6. Balancing and integrating of crop and range use. 7. Correlating of livestock, watershed. forest, wildlife and recreation forms of range land uses and services.

CURB OF

NAMES IN CHINA

NEAR

SHANGHAI UP' The use of several names and a half dozen aliases is not confined to movie stars and fugitives in China. Here it has been common practice for Chinese to have as many names as they please, changing them as their ambitions or state of mind change, but complications which arise in official records have led to a movement of restriction. The Ministry of Interior has requested a revision of the Chinese Civil Code to limit each person to two names, an ordinary name and a courtesy name. One of the most serious difficulties resulting from spur-to-the-mom-ent name-changing arises at election time. With elections to the People’s Assembly approaching, the Ministry of Interior is especially anxious to eliminate the many-name system and assure a “clean” poll. Another complication, which disrupts Chinese judical affairs, is the refusal of a Chinese to accept a court summons issued in one of his names, which he vows is neither his family nor courtesy name. Many educated Chinese have as many as four or five names plus a number of literary pseudonyms. Government officials also adopt several names, as the case of Gen. Chiang Kai-chek, the nation’s ’ strong man”, who also is addressed as “Chungchen” by friends who wish to show respect for his position as president of the Executive Yuan. The late Dr. Sun Yat-sen. founder of the Chinese republic, still is referred to by the honorific "Chung Shan.” The practice of using several names is an ancient custom in China. At birth a Chinese may be named after an animal or bird, or according to his weight, or the order of his arival in the family'. When he enters school he is given another name, his “school name,” and a few years later, he may adopt some such name as “Tseng Kuan” (Conquest of the World), or "Kuo Liang’’ (Pillar of the Nation).
