EE St,
SAYS OHIO’S VOTE WILL ELECT
COX.
Dr. Chancellor, Noted Educator, Pre-
dicts State Will Give Him
250,000 Majority.
New York.—That Governor Cox
will be elected President in November,
carrying Ohio by 250,000 majority, is
the confident prediction of Dr. Wil-
liam Estabrook Chancellor, noted
writer, educator and political student,
in a letter published in the New York
Times for September 26.
Dr. Chancellor, who has held the
chair of political and social science,
history and other studies in several of
the leading universities of this coun-
try, bases his prediction of the result
in Ohio upon a careful survey of the
situation in that State. He asserts
that Senator Harding will even lose
the ward in which he lives, the city of
Marion and the county.
The people of Senator Harding's
home city, Dr. Chancellor said, know
that he is a “political accident.” .He
declares that Indiana, knowing the
facts concerning the candidates, will
Yote as Chio does in the coming elec-
on.
DR. CHANCELLOR'S LETTER.
In the following letter Dr. Chancel-
lor sets forth the reasons upon which
he predicates his conclusion.
Wooster, Ohio, Sept. 14, 1920.
To the Editor of The New York
Times:
As an observer I was present at the
Republican National convention in
Chicago. Since that time I have vis-
ited in a score of cities in Wisconsin,
Illinois, Indiana and Oo, and was a
delegate to the Ohio State Democrat-
ic Convention. Much of my travel has
been on traction lines where I have
met many people in various walks of
life. I have spent three days in Mar-
ion, and have investigated the politic-
al conditions in Dayton. If the Re-
publicans are basing their hopes of
victory upon Ohio and the Middle
West, I am at a loss to discover any-
thing whatever for such a basis. Gov-
ernor Cox will carry Ohio by a quar-
ter of a million votes.
Owing to the workmen’s compensa-
tion act and to the fact that in the in-
dustrial struggles of this State under
Governor Cox no shot has ever been
fired, labor will cast an almost solid
vote for him, and be enthusiastic in so
doing.
FOR HIM ON HIS RECORD.
Owing to the great improvement
in public education due to the school
code in the three administrations of
the Governor, practically all school-
men and schoolwomen of the State of
any length of experience are his
warm personal supporters. In visit-
ing teachers’ institutes and summer
college sessions at many points, I
have been amazed at the virtual una-
nimity of this support and at its vig-
orous public statement, unusual in or-
dinarily restrained educators.
As is well known, there is a great
preponderance among college profes-
sors of support for the League of Na-
tions; and the same preponderance
will be found among preachers as
well. Ministers who have never be-
fore talked politics are talking for the
League according to the present cov-
enant.
One of the most popular acts ever
operative in our State is the so-called
Smith One Per Cent. act, limiting tax-
ation. This holds the farmers in line,
for the Democrats sponsored it and
have stood by it. The law was pre-
pared by our famous Judson Harmon.
Upon the State ticket there are two
very strong candidates, one of them
A. V. Donahey, who has been State
Auditor for eight years, the present
candidate for Governor to succeed
Cox; and W. A. Julian, a Cincinnati
manufacturer, who happens for good
reason to be very popular among
working people, Senatorial candidate.
These men are opposed by former
Governor F. P. Willis, during the war
a mild pacifist, and by former Mayor
Harry L. Davis, of Cleveland, who
laid the city wide open. These will
prove to he very weak candidates.
Cox, Donahey and Julian make a trio
that will lead tens of thousands of
former Republicans to vote the Demo-
cratic ticket, and will hold every Dem-
ocrat in line. The Auditor is a verita-
ble watchdog of the Treasury, a bril-
liant political writer, and a persuasive
platform man, and happens to
poor, with a family consisting of a
wife and ten children. He will get the
highest vote.
WOMEN FAVOR COX.
Of course any one who predicts
what women will do—even a woman
who so predicts—runs unfamiliar
chances in politics. To us, it appears
that the women will vote for the
League. Here Cox will lose no femi-
nine support as being a “wet,” for the
sufficient reason that he enforced,
even in Cincinnati, the Sunday Clos-
ing act and as Governor signed the
then unpopular Crabbe Prohibition
Enforcement act, both antedating by
several years the Volstead act and na-
tional prohibition. :
The battle will be fought here in
Ohio. It is improbable that the man
who carries Ohio will lose the election.
Indiana will vote as Ohio votes, know-
ing the facts intimately. Born of a
family from forefathers who came in-
to this State in the eighteenth centu-
, with kinsmen in a score of differ-
ent countries, to myself it looks like a
Democratic certainty, overwhelming-
ly so. Harding will lose the ward in
which he lives, the city and the
county. There he is known for what
in fact he is, a political accident.
WM. ESTABROOK CHANCELLOR.
Another war has begun in the
Near East. Word was received that
Armenia has formally declared war
against the Turkish Nationalists. The
Turkish Nationalists have occupied
Sari-Kamish and are moving upon the
great Black Sea port of Batum.

PENNSYLVANIA’S FORESTS.
Short Talks on the Forests and the
Lumber Situation.
—
By Gifford Pinchot, Chief Forester of
Pennsylvania.
FORESTRY A BUSINESS
TION.
Forestry may be defined in several
ways. It is the art of raising repeat-
ed crops of timber on soil unsuited
for agriculture. It is the common
sense way to handle woodlands for
what they can produce. I think the
best definition of forestry, however, is
that it is the art of handling forest
land in such a way that it will be of
the greatest service to man.
Forestry should be practiced by all
persons who own their timber lands.
Unless it is practiced, these lands can
not produce what they should produce,
either in returns to the owner or ben-
efit to civilization. It is strictly a bus-
iness proposition.
It was on June 13, 1898, that the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
bought its first piece of forest land,
and started the practice of forestry.
From then until now the Common-
wealth has purchased lands in differ-
ent parts of the State until its pres-
ent holdings amount to 1,077,520
acres. In these twenty-two years the
Commonwealth has paid to townships
for school and road purposes $562,-
419.77 in taxes on its forest lands.
Purely as a business investment the
state forests show up as follows:
Total purchase price..........% 2,456,300,08
Total amount expended for
administration, development
and improvement ...........
Total investment and expen-
ditures

3,613,211.85
6,069,511.93
11,000,000.00
6,069,511.93
Net gain on investment $4,930,488.07
In other words, the State is about
five million dollars better off than if
it had never bought and paid for an
acre of forest land, and in addition it
is growing large amounts of lumber
and wood which will be ready for the
use of the people just when they will
be needing it most.
The town of Zurich in Switzerland
has for centuries had what amounts to
a wood-lot of several thousand acres.
It has been under careful management
since long before Columbus discover-
ed America. During all that time it
has produced crop after crop of valu-
able timber, the young trees growing
up to take the place of the old trees
cut down. The point is that the forest
is conserved and renewed instead of
being destroyed by lumbering.
Not only is it not destroyed, but it
becomes steadily more valuable and
its products more important every
year. It produces annually from
every acre a net revenue about three
times as large as the amount Penn-
sylvania has paid per acre for the for-
est lands it owns; and unless the for-
est is destroyed by violence or fire,
will keep on doing it for centuries to
come.
I speak of the City forest of Zurich
from personal knowledge, because I
got part of my training in forestry
under its maples and ashes, its beech-
es and spruces, and because I have
visited it again and again as one of
the most interesting and instructive
forests in Europe.
Remarkable as this forest is, it does
not stand alone. I know of many
towns in Europe whose whole munic-
ipal expense before the war was paid
from the annual net revenue of their
forests; and the beauty of it is that
under wise methods of cutting the
longer these forests are operated, the
more timber is cut from them under
skillful management, the more timber
they produce, and the greater is their
net return. Forestry with them
means an endless succession of valua-
ble timber crops from the same land.
We can do the same thing in Penn-
sylvania if we want to.

Section 8. The debt of any county,
city, borough, township, school district, or
other municipality or incorporated dis-
trict, except as provided herein, and in
section fifteen of this article, shall never
exceed seven (7) per centum upon the

be
not exceed ten per centum (10) upon the

rowing capacity of the city of Philadel-
phia, at any time, there shall be deducted

an amount sufficient to provide for, and
may include the amount of, the interest
and sinking-fund charges accruing and

pletion of the work for which said in-
debtedness shall have been incurred; and
