Secreiary Jardine pointed out that the Department of Agriculture, through the Forest Service, for four| | vears has carried the burden of mak- ing this annual observance a matter of national importance. | The Department of Agriculture will be represented in the campaign by the Forest Service, the Bureau of Plant Industry and 'the Blological Survey, these three burcaus serving on the general Forest Week com- mittee along with the other organ- izations. “When American citizens more ful- Iy realize. the rapid rate at which this Nation's timber resources are being exhausted a national forestry volicy, with Federal, State and local | Eovernments all performing their will be assured. The Clarke- Nary forestry act opens the door,” etary Jardine stated About 80,000,000 acres of idle for- | est land in the United States must be put to work growing timber crops.

But that law can- not solve the American forestry prob- lems It can only help. The forestry problem, outside our natlonal forests, is very largely a State problem. That means that the States themselves must enact supplemental legislation to round out and make effective a national pel Worest fires are the great men to forest resources. Adequate fire protection, although primarily a State function, under the Clarke-McNary law involves three co- operating elements, the Federal Gov- ernment, the States and private own- ers.
