| growing. The public is now well post
 ed on subject of which only a few specialists had any knowledge at the time of the conference of governors and experts at the White House in May.
 The, governors carried the spirit of the conference home with them to the people, and have kept things moving ever since by appointing state com missions to study local problems, by writing and speaking upon the sub Ject of conservation, and by keeping in close touch with the national com mission They, are ready to take part in the approaching joint meeting The bare announcement that it had been set for December resulted in a num- Der of acceptarfces before the formal invitation of the commission had even gotten into the mails.
 When the conservation movement was started, specific information about the actual state of our resources was partly wanting, partly inaccessible. Certain facts were broadly known. It was at least unquestiOnable that our resources had been wastefully used, and that some of them. notably the mines, were sure in time to be com pletely eXhaused. while others, for ex- ample the forests. could still be kept perpetually useful oy right manage ment. The first work was to get the facts, to show exactly what the situation was and how it could be improved by measures that would work. Without an inventory of the resources which should show the pres ent condition of the resources and the way to- develop them to the best advantage, Conservation was in dan ger of staying up in the air.
 But the work is now practically done. The facts are there, in dollars and cents, tons of coal, board feet of timber acre-feet and horsepower of water, acres of land. And the possible re- form measures have been weighed. The final report to the president will be the necessary supplement to the addresses at the White House Conference. The note Of these addresses was a nOte of warning. The report is expected to show that the warning must be heed ed if the exhaustion of natural resOur- ces is not. one day. to impOverish the

SECOND CONFERENCE
 OF THE GOVERNORS
EFYEEZl.."
For a Discussion of the Inventory of National Resources.


 Washington, D. C., Nov. 12.-(Spe- , cial correspondence of The Republi can)-The much talked of inventory of the nations resources is now prac tically completed. To consider the material it has brougt together the national conservation commission has just announced it's first full meeting for Tuesday, December l. in Wash | ington. At that meeting the first steps will be taken toward putting into tangible shape the results of the six months hard work on taking stock of the country's waters, forests, lands and minerals.
 One week later, after the commis- sion has gone over the inventory, it will hold a joint meeting in Wash ington with the governors of the states and territories, or their repre- sentatives. At this meeting the in ventory will be further discussed and the report which the president has requested the commission to make to him by January l will be formulated
 With less than six months in which to make the inventory, the four branches into which the commission is divided, aided by the cooperation of the government departments, have brought together what is probably the most useful collection of facts about the material things on which national industry and progress are based that has ever been assembled at one time. Reports presenting these. facts and pointing out their significance have been prepared. These reports, sum marized and indexed. will be sub mitted to the commission at its com ing meeting.
 All through the summer general in- terest in the work and object of the conservation commission has been
