oFpORTS ON FORESTRY
r.;Dt Senate and Assembly
Committee Will Prepare a
Compromise Report at
Next Legislative Meeting.

Oop OF the most important
alters to come before the Wis
ooosin legislature soon after that
bodv assemblies in January will
he state reforestration. 1t will
he brought up by the report Of
The Joint legislative committee
Which has been conducting an
;nrestigation into the subject
since the adjournment of the last
legislature. Thatcommittee has
c6mpIeted its labors and the re-
mort that will go to the legisla-
mre is being prepared.
The report of the committee
will. in substance, it is stated by
members of the committee, favor
q continuance of the plan of re-
orestration now in effect with a
modification of that program
continuing the work to lands now
owned bv the state and which
are not suitable for agricultural
ourposes and which cannot at
any time become available for
farming, orchards or dairying
The report is a compromise, it
IS understood, between the two
suggestions for disposing of the
vast acreage in upper Wisconsin
that once was the great pine
belt andnow is covered by forests
of hemlock, spruce and tamarack
or has been left wilderness of
stumps and underbrush where
the timber has been cut off. Ad-
vocates of reforestration desired
that practically one-third of the
northern country be madea park
where the present forests should
not be disturbed and where new
forests should be planted. Those
opposing demonstration desired
that the demonstration plan and
state park project should be
abandoned and alllands in upper
Wisconsin owned by the state
should be thrown open to settle
ment.
Gov-elect Philip is known to
be strongly opposed to the state
forestry project. He attacked it
in his campaign speeches in
manner which left no doubt of
his position. He believes all
northern Wisconsin lands that
are now or may IN the future
become suitable for agricultural
purposes should be thrown open
to settlement and be transformed
into farms that through taxa
ton and their products will
build up the district and add to
its wealth. He believes the ma
ton and not the state should
direct reforestration and provide
the forests for a generation a
century hence, and that the
northern third of the state should
not be transformed into a wilder
ness for fifty or one hundred
Years that the people of that
period may profit.
