Meantime, President Truman
asked congress to provide $3,

private forest lands and to allow
an overall increase of $10,000,

His request for $38,251,500 for

day. The 1948 total was $28,

Depletion Serious
"Forest depiction today is so
serious that positive action to in
crease growth is imperative if
future employment in forest in
dustries is not to be jeopardized
by lack of raw material."
He reported that to meet this
problem, five new forest service
field units will be set up this
year and that, within the next 15
years, 2,500,000 acres of denuded
land in national forests will be
re-planted.
The field units, similar to
those which were set up last
year in the south and northeast,
are to bring research findings of
the forest laboratory at Madison.
Wis., to the field and take local
problems back to the laboratory.
The president asked $1,072,
000 for forest investigations,
compared with $204,600 appro

year. He proposed $20,915,000
for protection and management
compared with $16,949,000 for
this year and $1,706,000 for re
search, compared with 5970,000.
He also proposed that con
gress appropriate $23,714,222 for
forest highways, $14,060,000 for
roads and trails and $8,300,000
for forest fire cooperation. The
1946 figures were $3,500,000,
$6,418,778 and $7,300,000, re
spectively.
