Enimit R. Aston of Omsk, Wash., association president, said in his remarks prepared for the opening session that the 4'v million private owners of the poorly managed 60 per cent are those who must be reached with conservation pro grams. . Aston said the government's re cent timber resource review showed the need when It pointed out that large timber firms and the government hold only 40 per cent of the timber. There is a need, too. he said. Oregon Weather Western Oregon Increasing cloudiness Wedncsdny night with rain beginning during night. Show ers and partial clearing Thursday.

FREE ENGRAVING ON ALL PURCHASES for more top management to get into the woods with "sn ax, a prun- uig saw and a shovel" to get the feel of a forest. Aston cited as sn educational effort the use of Camp Progress In northwestern Washington as an outdoor classroom by Omak and Okanogan public schools. The conference, the 46th annual, Is attended by private and govern ment foresters from the western areas of both the United States and Canada. A. D. Nutting, Maine's forestry commissioner and president of the National Assn. of State Foresters, held to the theme opened by Aston when he said that small woodlot ownership poses the real problem in forest management. There are loo many acres lacking fire pro tection, he said. The problem of technical assistance in growing and marketing timber needs ex pansion. But. he said, the question of who should pay the bill has not been settled fully. The national association. Nuttine said, believes that federal funds should be allotted only to projects where the farm forester' devotes the major part of his time to for est management. . In general, he said, state for esters, land owners and industry have been cooperating well and the chief point of discussion Is on the place and the amount of fed eral help In state-federal coopera tive programs. Awards in the association's an nual essay contest went to Robert Brock, University of British Col umbia, $100 for a report on use of aerial photography In forestry, and Gerry W. Kelly, Oregon State Col lege, $75. for a discussion of the need for better public Information about forestry.
