FOREST FIRE LOSS C UT SIXTY PERCENT A sixty percent reduction in Indiana’s loss from forest fires during the first six months of 1937 was reported today by Virgil M. Simmons, commissioner of the Department of Conservation. Losses reported by fire wardens from January 1 to June 30 totalled $8,653 as compared with a loss of $20,330 during the same per-

iod in 1936.

During the six months a total of 57 fires were reported, burning over 714 acres for an average of $12 per acre and an average of 14 acres burned in each fire. A majority of the fires were reported as resulting from the burning of brush and debris while smokers were charged with starting the second largest number of blazes in wooded areas. A reduction in number of fires, acreage burned and the economic loss indicates. Mr. Simmons said, that the Department of Conservation’s campaign against the waste of forest fires is receiving wider cooperation than ever before. This campaign includes operation of fire de-

381 licenses issued for compara- j tive dates over a two-year period is j what boosts the deputy’s hopes of j breaking the 2.000 mark by the end

of 1937.

But if the mark is made thus yeai, it will be the iast year for some time that sales will go so high, the deputy hinted. "It’s this way," he admitted, “the licenses will be a dollar and a half next year instead of one dollar, and I know we won’t sell as many.” The increase in the license sales price is the result of new conservation laws passed by the last session of the Indiana Legislature which authorize a fifty cent increase in the price of hunting and fishing licenses in 1938. Morrison said.

SOMETHING NEW

In a recent dental health conference held at Indiana State Teachers college, authorities suggested that the most effective way to get Vitamin D (the sunshine vitamin) into the child’s diet would be to feed it to the cows which produce the milk they drink. The idea of the cow taking cod liver oil instead of the child should receive a hearty endorsement from countless youngsters.

COUNTY ( LERK'S RECORDS SHOW LICENSE INCREASE

With the squirrel season opening August 10 and scheduled to close October 8, more and more Putnam county sportsmen will be hunting and fishing, records in the office of Homer C. Morrison, county clerk, indicated today. "Hunting license sales should run over 2.000 this year,” stated Deputy Clerk Roger Morrison, “and that’s a lot more than usual,” he added. Figures obtained today showed that to date 1271 hunting and fishing licenses had been issued this year. This number represents a large increase over last yesr’s figure of 908 licenses issued at the same date, and the W3S. total of 887. This increase

TOKYO, July 15.—Gen. Ikutaro Inouye, president of the powerful Army and Navy Reservist Association. warned the organization’s 3,000.000 members today to be ready to serve the empire against China. His warning came after Japanese dispatches from China had reported leaders of the Chinese Communist Army had offered to settle their long-time differences with Chinese Premier Chiang Kai-Shek because of the present North China crisis and join with him to fight Japan. “The crisis has exploded in North China” General Inouye told his followers in a proclamation. “Future developments are unpredictable but we must be prepared for the worst in order to preserve the empire. “We do not wish to fight China but we must, at this juncture, lay the foundations for permanent peace in the far East. We must eradicate the roots of the present evil and redress recent Chinese insults to Japan.” Japanese dispatches from Nanking, seat of Chiang Kai-Shek’s government. said the premier had ordered all his troops—including even those in South China—to be prepared for action and had asked the Finance Ministry to raise 50,000.000 yuan ($14,800,000) immediately for war purposes. These accounts declared eight Chinese divisions were concentrated in the trouble zone near Peiping and Tientsin and 200,000 more troops were moving toward North China.

PEIPING, July 15. — (UP) China’s red hordes moved out of the western mountains of Shensi today to join the nationalist legions of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek, marching north to defend Peiping against Japanese militarists seeking to annex China’s richest territory to the empire of Manchukuo. Warned by Japan that she will not tolerate intervention by foreign powers in the undeclared North China war, the central government retorted with a vow to defend North China “to the last drop of Chinese blood.” The Chinese Communist Party— only recognized Chinese political unit aside from the nationalist Kuomintang led by by Chiang Kai-Shek-spurred Chinese determination to make a last ditch fight against the Nipponese. Amidst rumors that the Nanking central government was eourting Soviet Russian support in its fight to retain control over Chinese territory between the Yellow River China’s sorrow—and the Great Wall, the Chinese Communist Party issued a manifesto containing these demands: 1. That Gen. Sung Cheh-Yuan. nominal Chinese administrator of the Peiping-Tientsin area, use all the) troops under his command to fight the Japanese. 2. That Ihe Nanking government re-enforce General Sung’s troops. 3. That the government take drastic action against all Cninese leaders suspected of pro-Japamese leanings. The manifesto concluded with a Plea that Chinese nationalists and Communists co-operate in a campaign to “drive the Japanese out of China.”
