WHAT ARE NATIONAL FORESTS AND NATIONAL PARKS? There are 17 National Forests in California with a net area of over 19,000,000 acres. The National Parks of the State are four in number and include an area of approximately 1,000,000 acres. The National Forests are administered by the Forest Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture; while the National Parks are under the jurisdiction of the National Park Service of the Department of the Interior. The purpose of the National Forests is to protect and maintain, in a permanent productive and useful condition, lands unsuited to agriculture, but capable of yielding timber or other general benefits, such as forage for livestock; water for irrigation, domestic use and power, and playgrounds for our citizens. All the resources of the National Forests are developed to the greatest possible extent consistent with permanent production under the principle of coordinated use. The principle of use of resources is the vital distinction between National Forests and National Parks. The purpose in creating National Parks is to preserve the scenery, the natural and historic objects, and the plants and wild life. The objects are the enjoyment of the people and the aiding of education and scientific study by keeping such areas unimpaired. National Parks are protected completely from any and all utilitarian and commercial enterprises save those necessary for and subservient to legitimate park uses. Many head-writers still confuse the National Forests with Parks; others call them forest reserves, although Congress many years ago officially changed the name of these Federal areas to National Forests. I am sure that everyone at all familiar with the use that is being made of National remarked that he had adopted and would continue to adhere to the policy of giving no publicity to cases under investigation until they are a matter of court record. "To do so prematurely would be inimical to the Government's business and in many instances might work great injustice to those who transacted business honestly with the Government." It is easy to get publicity by announcing that some prominent man is under investigation, and thus ruin his reputation, but Daugherty does not engage in that sort of business. There is no publicity until the case is strong enough to take it into court in regular procedure. INDUSTRIAL EXPANSION INCREASES BOARD'S BUSINESS The fact that workmen's compensation has been an established institution in California for over ten years might lead the casual observer to expect the work of the Industrial Accident Commission to have settled by this time into a routine requiring less detail than during the formative years. After going very extensively into the matter, John A. McGilvray, Chairman of the Commission, has deduced some decidedly interesting facts in relation to this question which are of paramount importance. Far from settling into such routine the number of controversies, which are steadily increasing, entail as many original, unusual and knotty problems of law and medicine now as at any time in the Commission's history, excepting the fundamental questions of constitutionality. There are now 1,080,000 wage earners subject to the Compensation Act, excluding probably 130,000 farm and domestic employees through an equal number in such occupations, it is estimated, have been brought under compensation by insurance and acceptance. plans have been made there will be much cost without loss WHAT IS OLDEST Asphalt Has Strong Binder force Doubtless the old road was wood, in times laid across my paths, much is still backwoods district. But the oldest hard stone or brick, and ants for hoary age first forms of building phalt. Some commable claim that the w quotation "alime ha to build the Tower translated as "bitu phalt. However that may doubt about the tr scription found on Babylon. It reads: "Nobuchadnezzar he who made Esag tous, son of Nabeb Babylon. The street procession Street duk, my lords, w King of Babylon, got me, has made with asphalt and wise suppliant wh ships, placed above burnt bricks, a mi gf shining dust, r within with bitumen as a highlying road duk, when you trai n joy, may benefit your lips; life for well-being for the will advance upon tain age!" Those who travel streets in cities an era of at least National Parks are protected completely from any and all utilitarian and commercial enterprises save those necessary for and subservient to legitimate park uses. Many head-writers still confuse the National Forests with Parks; others call them forest reserves, although Congress many years ago officially changed the name of these Federal areas to National Forests. I am sure that everyone at all familiar with the use that is being made of National Forest resources for the benefit of our citizens and the upbuilding of California will appreciate the inappropriateness of the old term "reserve." A QUIET, EFFECTIVE WORKER Attorney General Daughterty is the sort of lawyer who does not try his cases in the newspapers. For that reason, very little public attention has been called to his vigorous prosecution of what are generally called the "War Fraud Cases." Notwithstanding his aversion to resort to publicity methods, he has been working hard on the task of saving to the taxpayers every dollar that is not legally and morally due under war contracts. It is readily apparent that Mr. Laugherty undertook this work under great handicaps. The war ended in 1918 and most of the war transactions were closed before Mr. Daugherty went into office in 1921. Contracts were often loosely drawn, and were subject to varied interpretation. Much was left to the discretion of officers who approved work done or supplies furnished. When settlement had been made, the presumption was that all proceedings had been honest and legal, and the burden of proof rested entirely upon the Government. Much evidence was difficult to secure as witnesses had removed from former places of residence. In spite of the presumptions in favor of the regularity of transactions and the difficulty of bringing suits three years or more after the business had terminated, Mr. Daugherty, with an appropriation of $500,000 for this work, recovered approximately $3,500,000 in cash, got judgment for $1,225,000 more, and secured the indictment of 95 persons on criminal charges in connection with war transactions. Many cases are still pending or under investigation in an effort to secure the evidence necessary to support them in court. and knotty problems of law and medicine now as at any time in the Commission's history, excepting the fundamental questions of constitutionality. There are now 1,080,000 wage earners subject to the Compensation Act, excluding probably 130,000 farm and domestic employees through an equal number in such occupations, it is estimated, have been brought under compensation by insurance and acceptance. The above figures are from the best available statistics and are fairly accurate since they represent an increase of 36 per cent, the rate of increase for the country as a whole. The recent great expansion in industry and the exploitation of resources in this state requires a tremendously complex piece of machinery to care for the accidents to employees alone. According to the statistical department of the Commission, 1921, out of approximately one million workmen employer that year, there occurred 62,273 reported injuries causing disability lasting longer than one day and 550 industrial deaths, representing 6,829,254 total days of work lost. It also meant the payment of compensation in the sum of $5,924,582. In 1922 the reported injuries mounted to 83,246 and the deaths to 700. The figures for 1923 are not yet available but undoubtedly will show a proportionate increase. While the number of injuries and fatalities have increased the average cost of injuries has been lower owing to a very material decrease in permanent injuries and deaths. This decline is due largely to accident prevention, increased care and the application of safety devices, and for this the Commission feels its Safety Department be largely responsible. Although generally, the insurance carriers and those concerns which insure themselves are caring for the injured, paying compensation and checking up on their liability in a very efficient manner, it is to be expected that a certain number of misunderstandings and doubts as to compensability will arise, and these are reflected in the complaints brought to the Commission. Informal complaints and inquiries are not tabulated but they number many hundreds per month; formal complaints filed in the year ending June 30, 1923, numbered 2480 being twice those filed seven years before. About one quarter of these related to disputes as to the nature and extent of the disability caused by... and the timeliness of bringing in three years or more after the business had terminated, Mr. Daugherty, with an appropriation of $500,000 for this work, recovered approximately $3,500,000 in cash, got judgment for $1,225,000 more, and secured the indictment of 95 persons on criminal charges in connection with war transactions. Many cases are still pending or under investigation in an effort to secure the evidence necessary to support them in court. These figures relate only to suits brought in Courts under the act of Congress making the appropriation for prosecution of war fraud cases. In addition to that, the Attorney General represented the Government in a large number of cases in the Court of Claims where the claims of contractors have been contested and in these cases he has saved the Government $86,300,000 out of a total of $88,300,000 in claims. That is to say, he has so effectively defended the interests of the Government in claims brought by contractors whose demands he deemed unjust, that they recovered only about $3,000,000 out of $88,000,000 they claimed. These later figures demonstrate two things—first, that Attorney General Daugherty did not adopt a general policy of contesting every claim, which would have been unjust to honest contractors, but contested only those claims that were apparently irregular. The enormous proportion of contests won by him shows that his position was well taken. Second, the record shows that having contested the claims, he represented the interests of the Government effectively. In a report to the late President Harding, Attorney General Daugherty states that ANAHEIM GAZETTE WHAT IS OLDEST ROAD MATERIAL? Asphalt Has Strong Claims as First Binder for Stone. Doubtless the oldest material for a road was wood, in the form of branches laid across muddy stretches of paths, much is still made today in backwoods districts. But the oldest hard road material is stone or brick, and among the claimants for hoary age in considering the first forms of built highways, is asphalt. Some commentators of the Bible claim that the word "slime" in the quotation "slime had they for motar" to build the Tower of Babel should be translated as "bitumen," which is asphalt. However that may be, there is no doubt about the translation of an inscription found on a paving block in Babylon. It reads: · "Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, he who made Esaglia and Ezida glorious, son of Nabopolassar, King of Babylon. The streets of Babylon, the procession Street of Nabu and Marduk, my lords, which Nabopolassar, King of Babylon, the father who begot me, has made a road glistening with asphalt and burnt brick; I, the wise suppliant who fears their lordships, placed above the bitumen and burnt bricks, a mighty superstructure of shining dust, made them strong within with bitumen and burnt bricks as a highlying road. Nabu and Marduk, when you traverse these streets in joy, may benefit for me rest upon your lips; life for distant days, and well-being for the body. Before you I will advance upon them. May I attain eternal age!" Those who traverse smooth asphalt streets in cities are thus linked with an era of at least 500 years B.

CALIFORNIA SAFETY NEWS The October issue of the California Safety News, published by the Industrial Accident Commission, contains a number of articles of general interest. First-aid contests in California and Utah are described in an article entitled "Pacific Gas and Electric Company, International and California Industrial First-Aid Contests." The contest held at Sacramento on September third created much interest as local teams only, participated. The demonstrations of first-aid methods were excellent. Teams representing the following industries competed: Empire Mines (Grass Valley), Engels Copper Mining Company (Englemine), Fresno Fire Department, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (two teams), Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company (two teams), Riverside Portland Cement Company, San Francisco Police Department, and Standtrd Oil Company, (Bakersfield district). Prizes were won by the following teams: Standard Oil Company, first prize; Fresno Fire Department, second; Empire Mines, third; and Pacific Telegraph and Telephone Company (Sacramento district), fourth. "Organized Safety Work" on the editorial page contains a reference to the organized safety work of the United States Steel Corporation which is of special interest. The sum of $9,763,068 was spent from January 1912 to September, 1922, to prevent accidents. This includes the cost of safeguards, the time of committeemen, hospitals and first-aid work. As a result of this investment, 28,535 employees were saved from serious injury, permanent disability, or death. An estimate of the amount saved in the burnt bricks, a mighty superstructure of shining dust, made them strong within with bitumen and burnt bricks as a highlying road.

Those who traverse smooth asphalt streets in cities are thus linked with an era of at least 500 years B.C. in the roads they use, although from ancient times until about 1855, asphalt, then to be obtained only from nature it is now a product of petroleum manufacturing processes; was neglected as a road material.
