SATURDAY, MAJ
the State would not claim to know a
great deal, the snow goes off the Goth
OF April. and there is a week or two
weeks before the leaves get out when.
if forest Are gets started, it runs
just as it would in a stubble field in
the fall of the year. Now the appro-
priation for protection for forest f,res
is exhausted. and an appropriation
made at this session in the regular
course would not be available until
July first. Twice before. to my rec
objection. this has had to be done by
an emergency measure. 1t Is real
emergency, not only to save prop
erty. but actually to save dwelling
houses and lives in the unor4anized
plantations. where. around lumber
camps, q few men live in the very
edge of the woods. With this state
ment, In addition to what the gen.
tleman from Bingham (Mr. Dutton)
has said. I hope that there will be
no objection raised to the passage OF
this act and that it may 60 along
now through its various stages IN
order to save time.
The House then voted to adopt in
concurrence with the Senate Sen
ate Amendment A. which was the
emergency clause. The bill then re-
ceivcd its second reading.
