AERIAL FOREST PATROL
IS BEING DISBANDED

WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.-Q n. 81
The Secretary of War, because Of
lack Of funds, has announced that the
Aerial Forest Patrol will be discon-
tinued at the close of the present sea-
son.
1.-THE Aerial Forest Patrol was estabs
lished in 1919. In 1921 twenty-nine
planes were lent by the Army Air
Service to the Forestry Service for
duty in the Pacific Coast States.
These few planes the operating of
which was regarded by Air Service Of
fioers as part of the necessary ex-
pense of keeping units in training, in
two and half months in 1920 saved
from destruction by fire standing
timber valued in excess of $50, goo, 900,
or considerably more than the entire
appropriation that year for the air de-
fenses of the United States.
The work of the Aerial Forest Pa
troll has been one of the most distinc-
lively constructive achievements
growing out of the post war adapta-
tion of aircraft to peace-time uses ac-
cording to the Aircraft Year Book for
1871. In 1920 the twenty-nlne planes
in the service patrolled more than six
and one-quarter million square miles
| or national and private forests on the
Pacific Coast. They discovered and
accurately located between SOC and
1000 fires, and through this remark
able performance attracted the atten-
ton of conservationists in all parts OF
the country and led the Canadian gov
ernment and timber corporations tc
establish the foundation for similar
| services.
The Department of Agriculture
which has no specific appropriation
covering the aerial patrol, reports thai
the entire forest area in the United
States covers 463,000,0O0 acres, ant
that this region is being burned ovel
| at the rate of 100000 acres yearly
Reforestration requires minimum o
twenty years.
