Lie In Conservation Area
(This li the last of a series of
articles dealing with soil conser
vation districts generally and the
Lsngell Valley pilot district in
particular. Ed note.)
By HALE SCARBROl'GH
These articles previously hnve
mentioned the plans and sugges
tions for improvement of the thou
sands of private and Bureau of
Land Management administered
acres within the present boundaries
of the Langell Valley pilot con
servation district. Two other, great
areas within the district are lands
of the Fremont National Forest
and the Klamath Indian reserva
tion. The Fremont Forest portion, of
the district totals 242.900 acres, of
that amount 183,960 acres belolig
Inu to the Forest Service proper.
1,880 acres owned by the State of

PARIS Wl The French Nation
al Assembly ratified the Japanese
Treaty Friday by a vote of 399 to
101. .
Ratification followed approval of
the treaty by the Foreign Affairs
Committee of the Assembly.
Reporting the committee's ac
tion, Radical Socialist Deputy Mau
rice Faure said he hoped the peace
treaty would be followed by a gen
eral Pacific Security Pact which
would include France's Island pos
sessions there as well as Indochina.
The treaty now. goes to the Coun
cil of the Republic, the upper ad
visory house of Parliament, for ap
proval before President Vincent
Auriol can sign it and formally
complete the ratification. .
Approval by the council is con
sidered certain.
The French action virtually made
the peace treaty effective since
it now has been approved by seven
of the signatories whose ratifica
tion was required by the! treaty's
terms. . . . .
The treaty previously had been
approved by the United States. Ja
pan, Great Britain, Australia, New
Zealand and Ceylon.

57,060 acres privately owned. An
other big acreage within the .con-
lines of the soil conservation dis

The nrlnclnal resource, naturally.
of the National Forest is its Um

Approximately 382.532 acres' of
Indian reservation lands lie within
the present boundaries of the Lan
gell Valley soil conservation dis
trict, here again great stretches of
Umber and grating land under the
control of a government SRency.
And here the problems of trying
ettorts at resource betterment arc
further complicated by the fact
that activity In Mint direction tak
en by the Indian Service, if it be
comes interested, would have to
originate with, or at least hnve
the approval of, the Klamath Trl-
mer livestock Dasture. It annually I hoi

the Forest Service are practically i and nrtv-intnr vrndlcntinn nt,i w.

of Land Management, which ad
ministers timber and grazing lands
adjacent to the farm lands of Lan

They include: pruning, thinning.
reseeding, fencing, improvement of
springs, installation of small reser

watering,- fire protection, tree and
grass planting and general im

management. '
First of all. though, a complete
inventory should be made to de
termine just what the resources
are. -what they're worth and to
provide information to Work from.

West's most favored hunting and
