BASIS FOR OUR PROGRESS TAKING STOCK OF COUNTRY'S WATERS, FORESTS AND LANDS Second Conference of Governors in Washington Will Discuss Natural Resources—Useful Collection of Facts to Be Submitted for Their Consideration on Tuesday, Dec. 1 (Correspondence of the Gazette) Washington, Nov. 11.—The much talked-of inventory of the nation's resources is now practically completed. To consider the material it has brought together the national conservation commission has just announced its first full meeting for Tuesday, December 1, in Washington. At that meeting the first steps will be taken toward putting into tangible shape the results of the six months' hard work on taming stock of the country's waters, forests, lands and minerals. One week later, after the commission has gone over the inventory, it will hold a joint meeting in Washington with the governors of the states and territories, or their representatives. At this meeting the inventory will be further discussed and the report which the President has requested the commission to make to him by January 1, will be formulated. With less than six months in which to make the inventory, the four branches into which the commission is divided, aided by the cooperation of the government departments, have brought together what is probably the most useful collection of facts about the material things on which national industry and progress are With less than six months in which to make the inventory, the four branches into which the commission is divided, aided by the cooperation of the government departments, have brought together what is probably the most useful collection of facts about the material things on which national industry and progress are based that has ever been assembled at one time. Reports presenting the facts and pointing out their significance have been prepared. These reports, summarized and indexed, will be submitted to the commission at its coming meeting. All through the summer general interest in the work and object of the conservation commission has beer growing. The public is now well posted on a subject of which only a few specialists had knowledge at the time of the conference of governors and experts at the White House, in May. The governors carried the spirit of the conference home with them to their own people, and have kept things moving ever since by appointing state commissions to study local problems, by writing and speaking upon the subject of conservation, and by keeping in close and helpful touch with the national commission. They are ready to take part in the approaching joint meeting. The bare announcement that it had been set for December 8 resulted in a number of acceptances before the formal invitation of the commission had even got into the malls. When the conservation movement was started, specific information about the actual state of our resources was partly wanting, partly inaccessible. Certain facts were broadly known. It was at least unquestionable that our resources had been wastefully used, and that some of them, notably the mines, were sure in time to be completely exhausted, while others, for example the forests, could still be kept perpetually useful by right management. The first work was to get the facts, to show exactly what the situation TRAVEL SECTION The Travel section of the club met on Saturday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Nagel.

It was at least unquestionable that our resources had been wastefully used, and that some of them, notably the mines, were sure in time to be completely exhausted, while others, for example the forests, could still be kept perpetually useful by right management. The first work was to get the facts, to show exactly what the situation was and how it could be improved by measures that would work. Without an inventory of the resources which should show the present condition of the resources and the way to develop them to the best advantage, conservation was in danger of staying up in the air. But the work is now practically done. The facts are there, in dollars and cents, tons of coal, board feet of timber, acre-feet and horsepower of water, acres of land. And the possible reform measures have been weighed. The final report to the President will be the necessary supplement to the addresses at the White House conference. The note of these addresses was a note of warning. The report is expected to show that the warning must be heeded if the exhaustion of natural resources is not, one day, to impoverish the nation, and it will also undoubtedly bring out how the country's resources can be developed so as to last the longest possible time and serve the greatest good of the people.

The depositories will receive all remittances due the government for use of the national forests after December 1, and deposit them to the credit of the treasurer of the United States. According to the plan which has been approved by the officials of the United States treasury, the Forest Service and the officers of the various depositories, when a timber sale, stock grazing, or special use application is made, the forest supervisor will fill out a letter of transmittal in duplicate and tell the applicant to remit the sum directly to the national bank which is the depository for the district. Remittances will be in the form of a national bank draft, express or post office money order, and will be payable to the bank, since forest supervisors are not allowed to receive any money. The letter of transmittal is virtually a deposit slip to accompany the remittance. The duplicate copy goes to the district fiscal agent. All remittances will be assembled and checked up at the end of each day, a single certificate of deposit made out by the bank and mailed to the secretary of the treasury. This simple plan which has required months for the treasury officials and officers of the forest service to perfect, is one which will expedite business both for the users of the national forests and for the force in the office of each district forester, and at the same time will make it possible for the government to deposit the national forest receipts in the western banks, and help the circulation in TO REVISE MILITIA LAWS National Guard Next In Rank to the Regular Army In order to comply with the provisions of the Dick act, Adjt.-Gen. Lauck has appointed a committee of militia officers to revise the present laws governing the California national guard, and draw up whatever amendments to the same they may deem necessary. The amendments proposed by the officers will be submitted to the legislature next winter for approval Those selected by Gen. Lauck for the work are Col. Thomas Wilhelm of Haywards, Col. H. I. Seymour, second infantry, Sacramento; Capt. Geo. W. Baer, commander of national guard of San Francisco; H. A. Smith, fifth regiment, Oakland; Lieut.-Col. S. M. Saltmarsh, seventh infantry, Los Angeles. The Dick act provides that the national guard of each state in the union shall be considered the next in rank to the regular army, and that no volunteers shall be called for in time of war until after every national guard organization has been sent into the field. The Dick act demands that all states comply with its provisions before January, 1910. Therefore the necessary amendments to the California laws must be made by the next legislature.

The commissions for a real estate deal are the subject of a suit brought in the superior court this week. The plaintiffs are C. C. Hunton and William Breeding, real estate men, and the defendants are W. H. Young and W. G. Record. The amount of the commissions claimed is $1200. The complaint states that defendants owe plaintiffs the sum of $1200 for real estate deals made on August 31 and November 1 of this year, that no part of the commissions for the sales have been paid, that the brokerage contract under which the sales were made was reduced to writing. The real estate deal on which suit is brought was the trading of Orange county property for Los Angeles realty. It is claimed the deal was consummated, and the real estate men claim to have earned their brokerage fees, though the men who made the trade afterward traded back.
