RAILROADS WILL TAKE PART.
Trunk Line Companies to Assist in
Conservation OF Resources.

i
Conservation or Resources.
Announcement has beenSmade from the
Office OF the joint committee on conser-
walton that a plan has been worked out
for the railroads to take part in the
movement for the conservation OF natural
resources in the country.
The plan is the outgrowth OF series
Of conferences between representatives OF
the committee and of leading railroads.
which have been going on since early
spring.
Some idea OF the Importance Of the plan
may be gained from the fact that the pre-
liminary negotiations on the part OF the
railroads have been carried on by repre-
sentatives Of the American Railway En-
gineering and Maintenance Of Wav As
sociation. Attention was also given to
the subject Of conservation at the recent
meeting OF the American Railway Master
Mechanics Association at Atlantic CITY.
The enormous amount or timber and iron
used by the railroads. as well as the great
amount OF coal consumed by them, make
the proposed plan one OF the greatest
magnitude
The plan as now agreed upon between
the conservation committee and the rail-
roads provides a systematic arrangement
by which the joint committee is to give
the railroads suggestions as to how the
various railway systems can put conser-
vation policies into effect. The associa-
tons on their part undertake to have the
railroads take active steps toward carry
ing out these suggestions.
The joint committee on conservation is
at work with other large organizations
representing other important phases Of
national industry.
