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.

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.

versity of California from 1936

discussed at a meeting of admin
istration and coaches in Forest
Grove on Monday, November

the Columbia county league and
participate in basketball. Games
with Clatskanie will count to
ward the league championship,
but will' strictly not be repre
sented ait the state tournament.
The reason for this action was
due to the fact that Clatskanie

Seven Highlights Told
Following are the highlights
of the proposed program:
1. 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.
