FLORIDA CITRUS GROWERS
WANT REFORESTATION

Washington, Feb. 1.-The eaters of
Florida oranges and grapefruit may
not think of reforestation as in any
way affecting their breakfast tables,
but the Florida citrus growers have a
different point of view, according to
forestry officials of the United States
department of agriculture who have
found the leaders of the industry anx-
ious about future supplies of box
material.
The Florida grapefruit and orange
crop now requires on the average
more than 100000 boxes yearly to
get 1t to market. 1t has a money
value of something like $4,000, 900,
and the industry is still expanding
rapidly. By 1880. if production con-
tinues to increase in similar ratio to
that in recent years, the output will
require 100000 boxes annually
Each box requires about 5h feet of
lumber.
Local southern pine forests are the
source of the raw material for these
boxes. but the supply is drawn upon
also for wooden containers for the
products of Florida truck farms. The
truck farm products of the state now
call for 100000 boxes annually, and
this demand also is growing.
Forest depletion under methods
which do not provide for regrowth has
reached point which makes the ques.
tion where containers are to come
from a matter of very practical con
Germ to the citrus industry in Florida
Conferences have been held with lead
ing officials of the forest service tt
discuss this question. Application OF
the principles of forestry with view
to the production of sustained supple:
of box material is regarded as TIT
only way to meet the problem.
The government has a national for
est in Florida of over 100000 acres
On which the practicability of fores
management for a sustained yield ha
been fully demonstrated, according t
the forest service. but the lumbe
needs of the state will require a yer,
much larger acreage than this. Unde
the nationwide forestry program
which the forest service and the for
est and wood-using industries of IN
country generally are advocating, it
! proposed to bring about conservative
handling of private forest lands a
well as public. The citrus fruit grow
: ers are reported to be joining in advo
cacy of this program.

FULL ACCEPTANCE
BY TOXIC EXPECTED

picions Believed Holding

Further concrete development in
plans OF President Harding for inter-
national disarmament conferences
probably to begin in Washington this
fall. awaited today response from ia
pan to additional communications un-
derstood to present more fully views
of the administration as to desirable
ity of reviewing at the same time far
eastern problems. There seemed lit
lie doubt among officials here, how
ever. that the full program would be
carried out.
Toxic dispatches have clearly indi-
lated the division Of opinion in Japan
IS to the wise course of that govern
lent in relation to the proposed far
sastern discussions. and there was no
evidence here today of any desire to
10 that portion of the Presidents in
vitation. 1t was clear, however. that
officials expected the interchange of
views now in progress between Wash
ington and Toxic as to the scope to
be given the far eastern conference
to result eventually in full acceptance
by Japan.
Position Made Plain.
The American government is un-
derstood to have made plain its po-
sition that the specific matters to be
treated must Of necessity be agreed
upon by the confefees in prelim-
mary sessions. Behind this, 1t is un-
derstood. is the feeling in Washing
ton that q mutual understanding of
the views OF the several powers con-
cerned with Pacific matters will go
far toward clearing away possible
future war causes. Such an under
standing Eo!.ld permit the main OBJ
ject of the discussion. the actual re-
duction of naval >armaments particu-
larly, and the consequent decrease in
tax burdens of the peoples of the
