MILITANT CONSERVATION By Charles jV. Stanton When military services began having trouble maintain ing telephone wires in the extreme northern sections of the continent, personnel had visions of enemy sabotage. Investigation, however, revealed a quite different situation. Telephone lines, it was found, were erected at a pre scribed height. Snow storms, however, reduced clearance. Caribou, trying to pass under the telephone lines, entan gled antlers in the wire. In freeing themselves, the ani mals disrupted communications. The situation was quick ly repaired. This is only one of several incidents related by F. Ross Brown, Albany, former state president of the Oregon Wild life Federation, now western vice-president of the National Wildlife Federation. Talking with Brown last week at the annual meeting of the Oregon group in Corvallis, I was told some of the detail of what is perhaps the greatest service to the cause of conservation in late years. The story was told in part in a recent issue of a popular magazine, but the article could not begin to convey the enormity of the service being done conservation in general, in Brown's opinion. Conservation has been adopted as the hobby of the U.S. Air Force. In Air Force bases all over the world men have formed or are forming conservation clubs. Official Blessing Given This new development has been given the official blessing of the Big Brass. When men in bases aren't busy with the tasks imposed by military defense, they are rearing game animals and birds. They are planting trees. They are improving hab itat for fish and game. In some areas they have even cleaned up the trash left by litterbugs. Large military reservations are, in many cases, being used for scientific management of game. Florida's population of deer, it is reported, has been greatly expanded. Public shooting is being permitted on some reservations where harvesting is needed as a control measure. The most promising feature, in Brown's opinion, is that thousands upon thousands of young men are being trained in the fundamentals of conservation, proper use of resources, management of fish and game, and various oth er factors. Upon return to civilian life they will be aggres sive in conservation demands and critical of public apathy. Brown, who has jurisdiction over National Wildlife Fed eration activities In the western . states, including Alaska, makes frequent trips over the territory and has seen first hand much of the work done by servicemen. He says the people of this country owe far more gratitude to the serv icemen than they know. Roseburg Prominent The Roseburg Rod and (fun Club, which has held a very prominent part In the work of the Oregon Wildlife Federation, continued its leadership at the recent state meeting. The federation has been headed for the past two years bv Bruce Yeager of Roseburg and Sutherlin. YeRger has also served another term but not in sequence with those of the last two years. Declining to be a candidate for the presidency again, Yeager is to be succeeded by Charles S. Collins, supervisor of the Tmuglas County Park Depart ment. ColHns, a past president of the Roseburg club, has been executive vice-president of the federation during the last year. Yeager will continue to serve until the June meeting, at which time the officers elected at the contention in Cor vallis will be installed. Convention reports indicate that Oregon's organized sportsmen are now in the strongest position in history. The state has two organized groups, the Wildlife Federation and the Oregon Division of the Izaak Walton League of Ameri ca. Both have made important gains in membership and influence. They work in close cooperation through a liai son committee. It doesn't take a long memory to recall when a per son talking about conservation of natural resources and the protection of fish or game was considered to be "tcched in the head." But conservation today is recognized by the general public as essential. Considering that the whole future welfare of our na tion rests on our abundance of resources and their proper utilization, it is perhaps significant that we find our mili tary services defending our country not only with weapons but through militant conservation as well.

A suggestion: Some evening or some Sunday when you have nothing better to do, reach up on your five foot shelf and take down your Ancient History and read up on the golden age of Ancient Greece. The city states of Greece, led by Athens, built up a civilization that was more wonderful than anything that had ever existed before on earth. But these city states could never learn how to reach and re tain a reasonable state of agree ment and cooperation over any considerable period of time. They disagreed and argued and fought and scratched and bit each other in the leg from time to time. Eventually the barbarians swept in from the surrounding outer darkness and put an end for good to the golden age of Greece. You'll find the story an interesting one, well worth the time it will take to read up on it. You may be able to draw from it some morals that will be useful. History, you see, tends to re peat itself. One more thought in closing. If you'll go on with your reading, you'll earn that the Scythians in vaded the Kingdom of Media and occupied it for ten years. The king of Media, a wise and crafty char acter who succeeded in escaping liquidation by the invaders, even tually got rid of the Scythians by GETTING ALL THEIR CHIEFS DRUNK AT A BANQUET and kill ing them.
