In speaking of cuttihg timber on the National Forests, he stated that the cut-over lands still look like a forest as.special care is always made to leave enough timber standing to insure natural reproduction.

He spoke on the protection of the forests from fire, insects. and diseases and also devoted some time to a more intense ahd economic utilization of our timber resources.

In discussing the progress that has been made in attaining the ends of the Forester, he referred to the recent visit of the U. S. Senate Committee on Forestry to the Pacific Coast rvhich has resulted in the Clark-McNary Bill which lays the foundation for Forestry on the Pacific Coast. He said this bill made money available for fire protection, made money available to the farmers to grow trees on cutover lands, and would also result in a study of the forest taxation problem. Professor Fritz closed his address by telling of the progress that has been made by the U. S. Forest Service and also referred to the conference to be held in Washington, D. C., during the month of November when the matter of Forest Utilization will come up for discussion.
