A ROOSEVELT PLAN AwRY.

r ORMER President Roosevelt's scheme for
- raising his conservation policy TO the
dignity of a world movement is on the verge of
dropping ont OF sight in the morass Of State
Department archives. Out of the forty-nine
countries with accredited representatives at
Washington that were invited to participate in
the proposed international congress, only nine
teen have accepted and there is grave doubt in
official quarters whether the movement will
extend beyond this first preliminary stage.
The plan for the Congress was launched dur
ing the closing days of the last administration.
At President Rocsevelt's direction, Robert Bacon
then Secretary of State, sent out invitations to
the foreign countries, and the advocates OF the
conservation of natural resources as an admin
strative policy hailed the announcement with
marked enthusiasm. In the excitement incident
upon the change of administration, however, the
plan was left suspended in midair. Replies came
in slowly and in the few months that have fol-
lowed international conservation appears to
have aoated into the doldrums. Apparently It
is still there with nobody to bring it out now
that the sponsor for the idea is in South Africa
Just what is TO become of it, is a question
Some Of the countries which have accepted the
invitation to take part in the Congress are world
powers such as England Germany and Italy
Most OF the other replies are from smaller
countries Inasmuch as the invitations have
been accepted by some countries, it is probable
that an effort will be made to carry the idea
through some sort of finish at least whether
the aim of the sponsor is realized or not.
