He said that tho lum berman is only trying to supply a healthy demand and that reforestation will begin in earnest when the demand has reached the high-price point. E. T. Allen, United States district forester, brought applause upon him self when he appealed for safe and sane lumbering and the conservation of water. Addresses on this subject also were mado by E. M.
