M. Curran, Brazil, here, in the interests of Brazil and the United States, to introduce tropical woods in an effort to relieve the shortage of our scarce hardwoods and to open up a new market for South American woods. Mr. Curran since his graduation from Cornell has distinguished himself in his undertakings both in the Philip- pines and in South America, where he has been engaged for many years ex- ploring the great forests of that con- tinent. woods. These industries have taken a keen interest in his woods and are at the present time conducting experi- ments to determine their their utility, especialy in the making of au- tomobile bodies and wheels. In speaking of the lumbering condi- tions in Brazil, Mr. Curran said, "They compare with those in the Appalacians in this country." Here there may be cut out 10 species of wood per acre, while in Brazil there are found as many as 28 species in an equal area. At the present time the land in Brazil is cleared much in the same manner as that formerly employed in the pioneer days of the United States, when the woods were burned because that was the easiest means of disposal. Not so long ago in Brazil some of the forests were burned to make way for railroads, et the fuel for the locomotives and ties The New PREMIER IF, :., PIPE = Just a few more left of the $5 and $8 Pipe* Goinga Auto Strop Razors, Blades,, Strop, Case and Razor ' while they last.

"His mission here is important," said Professor Roth, "for its bearing on the welfare of this country and that of Brazil. We have already begun to feel the acute shortage of many such hardwoods as oak, hickory and maple, so universally employed in the manu- facture of furniture, interior finishing, and automobile wheels, bodies and so on. By the introduction of a number -of hardwood timbers to replace the woods which are fast becoming ex- ceedingly scarce in the United States, the shortage will be relieved. Further, Mr. Curran will serve Brazil in open- ing :up a market for its huge resources of timber, and in making more profit- able and rapid the clearing of the lands for agricultural purposes, where coffee, cocao products and bananas can be produced in large quantities." Industries Interested During his stay in the United States, Mr. Curran has spent several months visiting manufacturers in different parts of the country endeavoring to interest them in the use of tropical for t he roadbeds were imported. , F l f .f NINE, SPEAKERS LISTED.

He has succeeded in increasing the number of hid followers 'to 5,000 and is operating successfully against the Persian regu- lar forces in the district of Urmia. The country is* reported to be in- fested with his brigands, who are rob- bing and killing. Travel in Persia is said to be unsafe.

"It is true that we are having more cases than usual this year," reports the University Health service, "and it is well for students to be on their guard. A number of cases of grippe have been found, although the number of such cases is always high at this time of year." A rumor to the effect that a great many'"flu"cases were found in one fraternity house seems to be without foundation, according to word from the contagious ward of the University hos- pital. .
