6 Thursday, December 2, 1943 Vernonia Eagle Forest Management is Ot Vital Importance With the object of formulat ing a model state forest policy for the nation, the forestry committee, appointed last June by the national council of state governments, with Governor Earl Snell as chairman, will meet in Chicago on December 3. The council has recognized that the immediate need for sound nationwide forest man agement, organized and direct ed by the, states, has become of vital importance to the fu- ture economic and social life of this country. At a previous meeting of the council, the governor of Ore gon, was given the responsi bility of drafting this policy, thus honoring Oregon for its leadership in progressive forest legislation and Intelligent handl ing of forestry matters. Based upon the experience of the state and its methods of meet ing its forestry problems, a comprehensive forestry program is being evolved yhich, while preserving the rights of the individual states to solve their own particular problems, will result in a national unity of ¡effort. The consideration in this plan include tax problems; plans for emergency work; pro tection of the forests from fire, insects and disease; sound harv esting practices; forest land ownership and research. Are In It should be effected which will result in immediate reproduc tion in order to keep the for- est lands continually produc- tive. Legislation and regvla- tion of such by the states is necessary here, with each state because of its singular prob lems, working out its own so lutions. Free Enterprise Recognized Schedule Is Made For Basketball 6. The right of free enter- prise should be recognizcd and private ownership of forest lands encouraged with only enough public control to pro tect the public interest. The states should provide the means to acquire forest lands when necessary to insure continuous forest production and further legislation should be sought to permit the transfer of feder ally-owned forest lands to state control when it is for the best public interest. 7. Research in forest manag- ment and utilization should be encouraged and efforts in this regard should be correlated as among state, federal and pri vate agencies.

In the complex matter of taxing forest lands it is sug- gested that privately - owned lands, with a tax based on their "productive capacity” should bear their fair share of the cost of local government; taxes should be applied so as to equalize the payments be tween the operator who grows the trees and one who purchas es mature timber. 2. Reasonable payments, in ieu of taxes, should be made on publicly-owned forest land. 3. In the matter of emergen cy work, it is evident that there will be an unemployment prob lem throughout the nation fol lowing the war and it is rec ommended that the states make plans to meet this condition. Rehabilitation of state and fed eral forest lands should be giv en careful consideration and de termination made in advance as to work which could be done on private lands for public good. 4. The foremost considera tion in any forest program is protection. Fire is the worst enemy of the forests and all forest land throughout the na tion must be under well organ ized .protection, the responsi bility for which rests with the states. Insect and disease dam age, which constitutes serious forest management hazards, may be considered a public rather than a private responsi- bility. 5.
