Already, although there has been little damage to merchantable timber, there has been much loss of second-growth, logs and equipment, and a settler was burned to death in Albany—Cement work on new hos southern Oregon. Extreme dryness pital begins. everywhere is reported “The worst at this time in 38 years” is one bulle­ tin. Another says “A comparison with June 1 last year is like compar­ ing the Sahara Desert with the ocean.” A few hours of wind or of falling humidity, all authorities agree, will result in the breaking of bounds by a multitude of fires due to loggers, campers and settlers who have not realized the extraordinarily early hazard, All agencis are uniting to impress them with the urgency of absolute care with fire from now on and the laws will be rigidly enforced. The governor of Idaho has issued a proclamation stopping all slash burn­ ing. State forest boards in other states are meeting to di icuss unusual regulatory measures. The United States Frest si rvice is contemplating closing the national forests to visit- I ors. The state of Oregon has ap­ pealed to the war department for airplanes to assist in patrol. The U.
