As completed through hasty com parison by several receivers it was as follows: 'Greetings From Planet to Planet! i This experiment is hoped to be the forerunner of acquaintance. It was authorized by the Martian people only after much hesitation as we have watched your groping and still primitive developement of interspace communication. Your civilization i3 erratic and comprises many goverments with differing aims but all still per mitting wars, politicians, and like evils. , Disadvantage might come to you from improper use of communications from us. It must certainy be disturbing to learn that we have means, use less to attempt describing, of knowing your ways, languages. and the like, and that we are able, should we care to make it a pastime, to assist any one of your nations to crush another. It was however, decided to instruct our Department of Inter planetary Communication to deal with this difficulty by analyzing your apparent needs and deficien cies and by offering our aid only in matters of great and universal importance which should permit of no controversies among you. We have found one subject so conspicnously of such a nature that it is warranted in being the first subject of interplanetary discussion, with all the publicity and attention this must necessar ily receive. No inconsistency in your civilization, so advanced in many respects, has struck us so forcibly as your failure to recog nize one essential of self-preser vation. The same error has des troyed life on several planets and reduced others to misery, but as a rule, they have been inhabited by beings less perfectly envolved than yours. We are at a loss to understand how such people as Americans, for example, can devote unlimited publicity and interest ; to the disinterring of a king, dead these 3000 years, or to a girl's dancing for three days but give hardly a passing thought to the destruction of their forest by fire. .Thus it is that we have chosen Forest Protection Week as the occasion of our first message to you. We hope by so doing to help impress its lesson so much needed, especially in the magnifi oent forests of the western American states which our ob servers tell us have no superior in any world. BE CAREFUL WITH FIRE! KEEP IT OUT OF YOUR WOODS! "Your older brothers and well wishers, THE PEOPLE OF MARS. Through the Martian Department of Interplanetary Communication."
