A conference of United States and foreign engineering experts on ways “to retard the journey of the raindrop to the sea” was authorized by Pres- ident Roosevelt yesterday in a letter to Secretary Wallace. Wallace promptly called the meet- ing for September 22 and 23 in Washington. It will center on flood control and land conservation prob- lems in “‘upstream” or “little water” areas. The President explained there already is a wealth of experience and data on needs along major streams. “Upstream engineering will have a major part in efforts to save the land and control floods, and for that reason it offers a broad field of opportunity for the engineering profession,” said his letter. “I am therefore in hearty accord with your suggestion that there be held an open conference on the subject in the early Fall, “There are indications that a sub- stantial body of technical information on the control of little waters is now available in the scattered record of American experience—Federal, State and professional. The urgent prob- lem is to bring these data to- gether * * ¢ “It must be remembered that down- | stream waters originate largely in up- stream areas. The objects of up- stream engineering are through for- estry and land management to keep 76 years faithfully selling the finest beds—springs— mattresses—studio couches at modest prices.
