CATHEDRAL
Two anonymous donors, prom
inent residents of the Middle West,
have given $300,000 to carry on the
construction of the choir and
crossing of the Washington Cathe
dral,' announcement was made to
day.
Builders estimate that the work
now in progress can be finished by
next winter. The cost of the choir
and crossing will be approximately
$435,000. A like amount will be
required upon its completion for
endowment.
A national campaign under the
direction of Gen. John J. Pershing
is assisting in obtaining the total of
$6,800,000 needed for work within
the cathedral. It is proposed to
raise a total of $30,000,000 for the
entire cathedral project.
Conservation of Timber
Is Urged for America
America’s forests, when Capt.
John Smith felled Virginia pines for
the stockade at Jamestown, covered
half the total area of the continent.
In scarcely more than 300 years,
says the Richmond (Va.) Times-Dis
patch, the forest area has diminished
to such an alarming extent that econ
omists foresee the almost complete
denudation of our wooded sections
within a_few short generations.
In America, land of unparalleled
natural resources, we have become
too used to accepting the bounties
of nature as a matter of course —as
our birthright, simply because we
are citizens of America, the richest
nation in the world. To conserve
our forests we Inust bcome ‘'forest
conscious.”

INDIANA
By International New* Service .
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 2.
Should a newspaper editor enter
politics?
That is the question four Indiana
editors are cogitating following
their recent defeats in endeavoring
to be governor of Indiana.
Journalism entered the * political
field with a vengeance during the
recent primary in Indiana, but em
erged without success. Frederick
Vandis, Longansport editor, nearly
landslided into the Republican nom
ination, but the politicians rallied
against him and nominated another.
Thomas H. Adams, crusading Vin
cennes, Ind., publisher scored third
to the second of Landis in the pri
mary and also lost out.
Democrats Also
In the Democratic race, Samuel
B. Wells, Scottsburg editor, and
George R. Dale, editor of the Mun
cie Democrat, were also rans.
Although four out of 19 aspirants
were from the journalistic ranks,
none was successful.
Dale, in a recent editorial, ex
plained the defeat of the editors,
as follows:
‘‘The people like to read our
newspapers and take our advice in
the matter of voting for candidates
as long as we do not advise them
to vote for ourselves. They draw
the line at the preposterous act us
effrontery.
‘‘The newspaper man who takes
his job seriously hag plenty of
work to do without being bothered
by the responsibilities of office
holding. The way to get along in
politics is to be a good fellow with
the bodyr put your conscience in
cold storage until the votes are
counted and then, put it tn, wprk or
leave it on ice just as policy dic
tates.”
Too Slow For Politics
Dale believes that the editors are
not up to the politicians in ped
dling the bunk. _
The professional politician, in his
view, has a number of tricks that
the self-respecting editor hesitates
to employ.
“The way to win is to point with
pride, view with alarm.''wave the
flag, shake every greasy paw that
is not otherwise engaged, play bail
with the bootleggers “and the Anti-
Saloon . League, conjure up in the
Jackson and be a hell of a fellow
generally,” Dale continued,

They asked her to take $4,000 they
displayed and place it in a handker
chief in a trunk. «he was to put
$4,000 of her own with it to secure
their money. When she drew the
amount from a bank and put it in
the trunk, they wane through the
motions of placing their $4,000 in the
handkerchief. Then they locked the
trunk and took away the key. She
wap to be paid for <her trouble in
guarding the trunk. When she told
friends of the transaction, the trunk
was forced open and disclosed only

chiefs. J
