 FAVORABLE Will Lend His Aid To Carry- ing Out PineaiP Project SOME THINGS ID BE DONE
And Some Things Which Must Not Be Done. What the Forestry Regulations Will Require Until Pat ent is Secured

' Forest Supervisor Roscoe C Wilson
 in charge of the Touto National forest was seen yesterday morning before de parting for his headquarters at Roosc- welt, coming to this place from Phoc- nix Friday evening. in regard to the exact status of the tract of land com prising 2So acres which has been named Pmcair and on which it is proposed tu establish summer resort.
 That MT Wilson is heartily in favor rf the proposition there is no doubt. only as an officer of the government
 he desired to make il plain that there were some laws prescribed by the for cstry service for the protection of the
 trees It has been given out officially that a survey of the tract will he made this week. This does not mean that the tract will be plotted and divided
 up into lots or tracts. but that tract of land including 2SO acres will be sc- lectcd and the boundaries described Upon the completion of the survey will naturally follow an application for a
 permit to use the tract within the
 bounds as summer resort. The per init for the construction of | road to
 the proposed resort has already been
 given and of course the permit will also
 be issued for the tract to be used as
 a resort
 In regard to the forest regulations
 that will have to be complied with. Mir.
 Wilson said: There are certain rules
 and regulations that of course will
 have to be observed The primary ob
 jcct of forestry service is to conserve
 the forest and the rules will naturally
 be along that line. Campfires or any
 source that might result in forest
 conflagration must be watched with d
 certain amount of discretion. The de-
 struction of the forest trees is another
 matter that cannot be allowed. While
 those are two important things that
 should be understood by the prospect
 i've campers that they are not to do,
 there is another rule that specifics d
 thing that they must do. and that is
 in case of a local forest fire all per
 sons enjoying the privileges by means
 of forest permit will be expected to assist in the fighting of any such fire.
 Another provision in the issuing of a
 permit is that small charge will be
 made for the acreage"
 Mir Wilson did not state the price that would be charged per acre. but it is reported on good authority that it will probably not exceed 50 cents per acre.
 There fs another feature of the proposition that is worthy of consider ation and that is in the matter in which ! title may be acquired to the land. As
 is already understood by the subscrib- 1 CTS for stock the tract is located with i in the boundaries of the Tonto Nation
 al forest. Any acquisition of property
 would naturally have to come through i this department of the government. For the first year a permit will be granted i by the government, as has already been [ explained. and in the meantime. or ! rather immediately, steps will be taken i to carry the matter through the pat ent offices and the land office look ! ing towards deed to the land Def i mite information has not been given out as to how the title would finally pass. but it has been ventured that possibly the consideration would be by means of script. Eventually it is planned and expected that every sub scriber to the stock will hold a title to his particular lot or lots selected in the original drawing However, un- til such a time as the government and the directors of the company work out
 satisfactory plan for transfer of the property permit will he issued
 from year to year. which will under all ordinary conditions suffice.
