The Forest S erv ice cen ten n ial film frames the epic story o f the stru g g le to m anage a n a tio n ’s reso u rces amid global change This docum entary explores sensitive topics such as the delicate balance between preservation and conservation, the need to conserve and the desire for public u se, h isto ric a l paternalism and exclusion of women in the agency, as well as the inherent dangers and controversies o f wildland firefighting. The film attempts to make household names of ecological pioneers alike A ldo L eo p o ld , Bob M arshall, A rthur Carhart and Gifford Pinchot. The film looks first at pre-World War II land management policy under Pinchot and then analyzes the conflicts of the post-war era, spurred by the environment movement o f the 1960s. The story o f the Forest Service is rich in visual imagery. For m ore inform ation, c o n tact the Heppner Ranger District at 676-9187.
