Teachers' college seeks $3,000,000, $1,500,000 of which is to be used for a new library building, and the alumnae committee of Barnard asks $500,000 to complete the $1,000,000 en-, dowment fund.

Billions of Feet of Paper Wood Available for Manufacture Into Newsprint. Seattle.?Alaska wants to throw open her millions of acres of national forests so that the billions of feet of paper wood of the northland can help relieve the pulp and newsprint famine, Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr., of Alaska t > clared here recently. Governor Riggs was here on his way from Juneau, capital of Alaska, to Washington, where he expected to help press pending legislation intended to remove restrictions and allow pulp manufacturers to go into the Tongass and Chugach reservations, the northern territory's two great reserves. Pulp and paper ne-u a:*e anxious to go to Alaska and establish mills as great as these operated in British Columbia not far south of the Alaska boundary line, the governor asserted. Under the present laws the pulp makers cannot enter the reservations with any certainty that they will be allowed to stay. Alaska's great forests stretch over approximately 34,000 square miles, an ' r> P170 tfl Owl Ctfl t"P ili Cil IJCtli 1J Cl^UUl 111 Cli^V iv LMV of Indiana, according to estimates made by government officials. Several hundred million feet of good pulp wood, including western yellow pine, hemlock, Sitka spruce, white fir and lodgepole pine, are on the forest reserves alone. The Tongass reserve, in southeastern Alaska, is especially adapted to the manufacture of pulp and paper, forestry officials have reported. There is plenty of water power, ocean horbors open the year around, timber skirting the water and weather similar to that of the Puget sound. The governor intends to ask Washington to restore the reserves to the national domain or to open them to the pulp industry. SWINGING PILLAR IS FOUND Hunters Uncover Phenomenon in Green Mountain, Near Canon City, Col. Canon City, Colo.?Gently swaying to and fro, a huge granite monolith forming a unique natural monument has been discovered on Green mountain. several miles north of this city. It is believed to be the only "swinging monument" in the world. The shaft is more than 100 feet high, and in the course of many years has become free from all surrounding earth formation, except at the base, which is about 12 feet wide. In the center, the granite column tapers off to a width at the summit practically the same as at the base. Lee Flughitt, water commissioner of Canon City, and A. V. Hodgin, Fremont county commissioner, came across the phenomenon recently while on a hunting trip. They report that the entire shaft moves, probably from two to three feet at the apex, and the swinging is constant under the pressure of light winds. The base of the shaft, they said, rests in a small hoflow about three feet in depth and the contiguous i- i.i ^1. granite formation nas Deen euurezj disconnected. SAYS LAWSUITS ARE CHEAP New York Judge Denies Charge That Poor Do Not Receive Justice. New York.?The assertion that the poor man does not receive justice in court, made recently in a report of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, was contradicted by* Judge Frederick B. Crane of the court of appeals. Speaking before the women members of the Kings County Republican club, he declared that "the chief litigation in our courts is today conducted by the poor, or persons of moderate means, and at no time and in no country have the rights and remedies of the law been so easily procured." "Nowhere in the world is litigation so cheap or redress for wrong so readily afforded to the poor," Judge Crane said. "Any law office of standing can furnish instances of litigation conducted without charge for services rendered because of the condition of the parties." German Who Sunk Sussex Dead.

FEAR YANKEE SLANG British Afraid Youth of Land Will Be Corrupted. Film Subtitles Seen a3 Menace to Vaunted English Purity of Speech. London.?England is apprehensive lest the vocabularies of her youth become corrupted through incursions of American frequency with which resort is made to "Yankee talk" by British 1 song and play writers seeking to enliven their productions. Bands and orchestras throughout the country, when playing popular music, play American selections almost exclusively. American songs monopolize the English musical hall and musical comedy stage. It is the sub-title of the American moving-picture film which, it is feared, constitutes the most menacing threat of vaunted English purity of speech. "The child at the pictures is picking up a new language from the j slangy American films," says a critic | in a contribution to the London Daily News headed "The Vulgar Tongue." "I visited two picture theaters to day for the express purpose of collecting slang phrases and of noticing the effect of the new language on the child as well as on the adult. What the villain said to the hero when the latter started to argue with mm was 'Cut out that dope,' and a hundred piping voices repeated the injunction. The comic man announced his man-! riage to the belle of Lumbertown by j 1 saying, 'I'm hitched.' "Of course, the American child can 1 I comprehend these things much bet-1 ter than the British child, who is quite; unfamiliar with such phrases.
