Wasting Our Resources

TT is only in recent years that students of
l our national economic resources have
been able to awaken even a small amount
OF public interest in statistics showing the
alarming rate at which they are being de-
plctcd by the greed OF private interests in
their wasteful exploitation. Hence. plans
looking to their conservation have gained
but slow Roadway in public support In
none of our varied natural resources of
wealth has this waste been carried TO such
extremes as with our timber resources.
This truth is impressiYcly pointed out by
Chief Forester w. B. Greeley in his annual
report According TO this report thrce-nfths
Of the virgin forests OF the United States
have disappeared. while our present demand
for timber is four times greater than our
annual production. Yet, in tho face of this
rapid depletion and growing demand moth
ing is being done to restore to usefulness
enormous areas of burned-over, denuded
and idle forest lands.
TO meet the situation thus created and
TO put the United States on a sclf-sustain-
ing basis in timber production, Colonel
Greeley urges tho necessity of Federal legis-
lation. in the event such legislation is un-
dcrtaken, he suggests two principles to he
observed, to wit: "The first Is that because
OF the long-term nature OF timber crops
|and the foresight necessary to meet future
national needs. the public has an interest

native to the North or West as having taken
up their residence in the South; the number
of Southern negroes in the North and West
increased during the period 1910-1920 by
100000
These figures must be considered in the
light of tho so-callcd exodus of Southern
negroes during tho war period So con-
sdercd, they destroy the belief that the
States of the North and West have captured
the love or fancy of the negro and that it
Will be only matter Of few decades be-
fore the distribution Of the colored popu-
lation will have been mcasurably equalized
This equalization, it should now be apparent
TO every one, is not to take place. After
more than half century of freedom OF
liberty to choose between new home and
the old. the negro still maintains Il prefer
ence for tho South by ratio of approx
matcly . to l.
This fact should be profoundly signifl-
cant to the negro himself. and to the white
people of North, South East and West 1t
should impress upon the minds OF colored
and white in the South that after all is
said and done the real burden OF working
out an understanding and an adjustment
Is peculiarly their own; IL should constitute
for the people of other sections, without re-
spect to color, an admonition to avoid nrbi-
trariness and idle thcorizing. The problems
relating To the negro and his place in
American life are problems of extraordinary
difficulty. II they are to be solved at all
and thoughtful people believe a solution is
now i'll gradual process--the achievement
will be the fruit of virtually boundless sym
rathy and patience and intelligence. Neither
reckless agitation nor ill-considered criti-
cism from any quarter or from either race
Will contribute ono iota to tho progress OF
the desired adjustment On the contrary
both will inevitably impede this progress by
calling into play the nntipathies and resent
ments which for years have made the negro
problem the despair of sincere thoughtful
leaders.
Upon the white people OF the South tho
obligations and responsibilities of this cause
iaii most directly. They must refuse to be
swerved from course Of charity and JUS
ticc by any influence whatsoever.
