MEREDIIH
ASKS
$1,000,000 FOR
FIRE PROTECTION
Washington. Jan! 5. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF TH;E JOUR
N'AL) In a suplemental estimate
nutmitted to congress following the
regular estimates, Secretary' Mere
dith of the department of agriculture
'usks for an appropriation of $1,000,
;o6ft to use as a cooperative fund for
'protection against, forest fire and
pother forestry work; covering both
government and privately owned
.lands. i I
"! The forest service .-has had as a rule
t $1J?5,000 for jco-operatlon with the states.
At the last sesRton there was an unusual
r"demand,'on the one hand' for more lib
eral appropriations for this purpose from
, forestry associations iand commercial
bodies in the-western states, and con
siderable pressure on the other hand for
reduction of expense by those who were
"trying- to mike an economy ' record for
congress. l "
Secretary Meredith's recommendation
for a- $1,000,000 appropriation will no
doubt meet the same 1 contending cur
rents.. It Is distinctly stated by the de
partment to have the approval of Presi
dent Wilson, and is the first bcoad rec
ognition from an executive department
of what members of congress from the
western states have been saying for a
long time. ' f ' ,
The secretary's plan is for adoption
by joint action of the federal and state
officials of standards for protection of
timbered and cut-over lands from fire
and for reforestation, and use of the
federal fund on the basis of an equal
contribution by the state or by private
subscription In much the same way as
funds are shared for agricultural exten
sion, road building end vocational edu
cation. It is stated that 35 states have
forest resources to" be considered under
such a plan, and that if all were pro
tected,' the average cost would be 1V&
cents an acre, or an aggregate Cost of
$4,725,000.
,"A federal appropriation of $1,000,000
is the minimum that should be available
as the nation's share in this enterprise,"
says Secretary Meredith. "The use of
such a fund in co-operation with the
states is the most direct and effective
attack that can be made upon the great
problem of timber depletion. It is an
expenditure of federal moneys fully jus
tified because. In assuring supplies of
timber which would otherwise be lack
ing, it will be of direct benefit to every
user of wood . in the United States."

SEEKING
MORE FUNDS TO
PROTECT FORESTS
Salem, Jan. 5. As a member of
the senate agricultural committee,
Senator Charles McNary of Oregon
will urge additional funds for the
protection of forests from fire if the

pose, according to a telegram re
ceived by Governor Oleott, Tuesday,
from the Oregon senator.
The telegram states that ilcNary plans
to go before the house committee at - a
public hearing Friday in the interest of
material increase in the Weeks law fund
for forest protection. , t "
County courts are authorized by law
to provide necessary office eiutment
for justices of the peace, but this is en
tirely optional with the court, accord
ing to an opinion prepared by Attorney

A. J. Moore, district attorney for
Deschutes county.

court, as announced here. Justices Hen
ry Lu Benson, Thomas A. McBride and
