On the theory that the city victim of depression may find incentive again the o country _amon w the basin in resource and romance. BY FRANCIS M. LE MAY. Associated Press Staff Writer. FLORENCE, Ala, March 16.—Re- generation comes of new faith and courage, and perhaps no phase of President Roesevelt's population de- centralization plan would so brighten 200,000 city jobless he proposes to em- ploy in the Tennesse Valley as slopes elive with trees and fields green and || thriving. The President chose reforestation and reclamation to give sustenance, scene and vigor to the three other major | | implements—hydroelectric power, navi- gation and flood control he has pro- jected into an unprecedented experi- ment in planned economy, to remove forever from the land the specter of unemployment. Many Changes Needed. Since the fertile Tennessee Valley already abounds in productive farms. the problem of reforestation will volve eroded sloping farm lands, nat- urally infertile lands, overflow lands| 1not dependable for cropping and cut- over lands in which satisfactory nat- ural regrowth is not taking place. Watershed protection for hydroelec- tric power, as well as prize crops of forest products years hence, will be of | value in that reforestation will check erosion which fills the water heads of { dams, reduces water storage and lessens available power. Forests reduce silting to_a minimum. Native forests consist largely of hard- woods interspersed with pines. The best adapted species for unprofitable || marginal farm land planting are pines and black locust, both hardy, rapid growing and finding ready usage. Along streams and in mountain coves and more fertile lands, various hard- woods can be grown such as vyellow poplar, ash and wild cherry, walnut, oak, hickories, }and persimmons. States Can Provide Trees. ! Planting stock might be provided largely by State tree nurseries, now | operated by all the States touched by {the watershed project, Tennessee, Ala- bama, Kentucky, Virginia, North Caro- lina and Georgia. President Roosevelt has not revealed | details of his plan, but valley people |are studying the reforestation project | he fostered in New York, where un- profitable agricultural land is purchased || by the State and reforested. Since the | Southern States probably cannot put up off-set money. discussion centers about possibility the Federal Govern- |ment will purchase submargifal land [and make of it national forests. There ment contract with the individual land | owners. |, Reforestation is slow moving. A {land classification sur: must precede iand about two years will be required |to grow seedlings for planting. The { President proposes to engage 50,000 to 170 ,000 men immediately in this work. Great Area Available. But there is no speed limit to re- |clamation.

WORKS - COLUMBIA 5228 30 QUART LAST WEEK'S BUSINESS WAS THE BIGGEST WE'VE EVER HAD! ASHINGTON had no “holi- ' day” on G-E Oil Furnaces last week. It just goes to prove that homeowners know this to be a better kind of automatic heat- ing than they’ve ever seen before. People buy this furnace, be- cause of its revolutionary im- provements—and are astonished at its low operating cost. It's just as though they bought a 12- cylinder car and found its operat- ing cost lower than a four. One owner reports a $32 sav- ing in the month of January on the cost of house-heating and domestic hot water. (And that does not include his saving on janitor costs.) Another owner, in Spring Val- ley, not only praises the luxuri- ous heat, the quietness, and com- plete absence of oily smell with the G-E Furnace, but also reports a saving of $35 in one month. If you are interested, we will give you all the details of these savings. The way this automatic heating plant works is marvelous. As one owner puts it, the G-E Oil Fur- nace, sealed in steel, completely co-ordinated design, is five years ahead of the market. The furnace burns oil as it was never burned before. Itisacom- plete heating unit—boiler, burner and controls designed and made by G-E. It atomizes the oil by an entirely new method, burns the oil downward, traps accumu- lated heat “while the burner is shut down, burns cheaper fuel oil, and gets more heat per gallon out of it. All controls are built-in as part of the furnace—including the domestic hot-water heater. You don’t pay extra for any of them. You have completely automatie heat. You don’t even have to touch the Thermal @ontrol It controls day and night tempwfh- tures by means of a Téelechnéh electric clock movement. You'll appreciate this comfort more than ever during the changeable Spring weather. You'll have automatic hot water supplied all Summer at a great saving in cost.
