WASHINGTON. Jan. lt.-Everything
In the way OF forest preservation must
not be expected from the Federal Gov

Taft. who last night addressed tho an
nual banquet of the American Forestry
Association. The President said he did
not like ito lecture the States In their
business. declaring hat he had enough

their duty In the development OF their
forests.
1T Is the function OF the States to

this cause. but other States don't seem
TO realize then responsibility for de-
veloping our tree industry"
