Secretary. Clinton Rogers Woodruff OF
Philadelphia read an interesting paper at
the afternoon session on National impulse
Of Civic Improvement" He said in part.
when President Roosevelt on juno 20
1906 attached his signature to An'act for
the control and regulation OF the waters OF

signed the magma charta OF the civic i'm.

Mr.. Woodruff referred to. the despoila

throughout the country and said that thu
next great work which the American PEG
pie must wage is that against the desecra
