5SS The Memorandum.
The omcial memorandum on the
demonstration follows:
THE test consisted of running the
tank back and forth through heavy
mixed growth Of hard and soft woods
with q view to determining its e.
ffctoncy in beating down timber and
preparing a path for fire fighters.
Ordinary logs and stumps were nc
obstacles to the tank. Trees UP to
70 feet in diameter were borne down
and overrun after not more than two
o three attempts.
The hardest work done "a the
nprooting OF a group OF four bass
woods growing from m Not with
6iameters OF approximately &, 7, Z Ia
and Ia feet, respectively. THE tank
butted this group two or three times
without a great deal of effect; then a
chain was attached to the seven-foot
tree and 1t was pulled away from the
root, apparently with no difficulty
The 7 Ia foot tree was disposed Of
IN the same manner, after which the
times and then pulled down on the
hrst attempt. In backing away from
the roots the chain slipped to the
middle of this tree SO that it wa:
dragging through the forest until i
caught at each end and broke at {
point where it was ten feet in di'
ameter:"
The scene Of the official test was IL
the vicinity of the Ryan road east o,
Duluth where, early in September
rome trouble was caused by fores
fires burning in timber that was too
thick for fire fighters to penetrate ane

Originally the idea to bring thu
tank into the forest fire fighting serv'
