RETREATING soldiers burn every
thing behind them. They realize
it will take years to rebuild communi
ties . . . decades to regrow forests.
They must lose natural resources to
win the war.
IN AMERICA, we are not retreat
ing, yet hundreds of thousands of
acres of growing timber are burned
annually. Most forest fires are the
result of carelessness, or incendiarism.
Both types can be stopped before they
start.
REMEMBER, Timber is one of our
most important of -war materials . . .
it replaces metal sorely needed for
actual fighting tools and fills myriad
other uses. We need our forests to
help "keep 'em flying."
FOREST FIRES IN AMERICA
HELP THE AXIS do your bit and
see that your neighbor does his in
keeping fire out of the woods. ,
