Forest Conservation Asked
in Alabama

| MONTGOMERY. Ala. Dec. 20
Alabama IL threatened with . ium-
rber famine that viii reduce this state
from position Of a lumber exporter.
TO that OF an import state. according
TO !. +. Quinn. state commissioner OF
conservation. who has made ciosc
study Of lumber conditions In Ala

An appeal 20 Gov Kiiby 10 include
IN Ids message to the state iegisla-
ture. provisions for the enactment Of
laws which will provide for the pro-
lection OF state forests and for the
reforcstation OF lands from which
timber has been removed. has been
made by Quinn In line with his pro-
gram OF conservation.
I'VE arc cutting cur timber more
than four times as fast as we are pro-
ducing it, Quinn said. "only 10 per
cent Of what In now being cut Is orig
lnai growth. tho other 30 per cent Is
second growth and OF inferior grade
I'm 1910. estimates Indicated that
Alabama had IS billion feet OF stand
ing long-ieaf pine. The estimate OF
1919 showed approximately $4,000
| 600. 900 feet OF timber. or reduction
OF 10000. 100000 feet In pine timber
alone during that decade"
Mobile. which In 1910 was the lead
ing port Of the world for tho export
OF lumber has dropped to sixth place.
Quinn said. In emphasizing the ur-
gent need of liberal forestry pro-
gram. Alabama In 1910 was the lead
ing southern state In lumber exports.
Now II Is In third place.
Coupled with tho serious lumber
famine threatening. the problem OF
what use to make Of lands that will
become bare unless reforested also
confronts the state. he says Re
tween 80 and so per cent OF the land
is chased as forest lands, and the
question OF how over half OF the
state IL 10 be utilized In the future.
now presents itself" Quinn says. eve
have approximately 100000 acres Of
cutovcr lands suitable 10 profitable
agriculture. The remainder of the
state. more than 100000 acres, Is
practically worthless except for
growing timber"
Measures for the prevention OF for
est fires, which yearly destroy thou
sands Of feet of young growth that
In time would prove valuable asset
to the state, are also advocated by
Quinn as part OF the forestry pro-
gram.
The economic problem that Is at
tendant upon the despoilation Of for
eats OF the state. II not to be over
looked. according to Quinn. The
number OF people whose livelihood de-
pends directly or indirectly. upon
our forests is very large. Their well
fare Is OF vital importance TO the
state and hinges directly on outcome
