Endorse Proposed
Forest Policy
Forests Amendment to State Con.
stitution Has the Support of the
Political Parties.

Political parties may differ in
other details, but when it comes to a
forest policy for Wisconsin they
seem to be in accord. AT any rate,
the party platform conventions re-
Gently held at Madison all contained
plank advocating a forest policy
for the state. The significance of
these declarations this year is pro-
nounced, for at the November cleo
ton the proposed forest amendment
to the state constitution will be sub
mitted to the voters. The Re-
pubhcans declared for a Sound and
comprehensive policy Of reforesta-
ton" The Democrats said they
wanted a "plan of forest develop
ment scientifically administered, .
while the socialists approved the
proposed forest amendment directly.
This amendment would authorize the
state to acquire, develop and pre-
serve the forest of Wisconsin" 1t
is evident that no reforestation
policy can ever be adopted or
developed without the approval of
this amendment 1t is strictly an
enabling act. Not a single dollar is
appropriated but the details of the
policy, subsequently to be adopted,
will have to be approved by the
legislature.
The way it comes about is this
The state constitution prohibits all
works of internal improvement.
Direct state activity in the acquiring,
preserving and developing of the
forest resources of Wisconsin has
been declared a work of internal i'm
provement by the Supreme Court.
The only way the state may assist in
restoring the forests of the state is
to remove this constitutional restric-
ton by amendment The proposed
amendment therefore furnishes the
legal basis and authority for direct
state action in forest restoration
with subsequent legislative approval.
The forests of the state have been
materially depleted. Timber has
always been a valuable resource and
is still the basic material which en-
ables hundreds of factories and mills
to operate, and affords tens of
thousands of men a chance to earn a
livelihood in Wisconsin. But re-
forestation policy is needed to con-
tinue forest supplies, and particular
" on lands suitable only for this
crop, of which millions of acres, not
cut over, exist in the state. The
very nature of forest growth de-
mands that the state assist in
restoring this resource, in order that
lands may continue to be productive
and wood using industries may con-
tinue to operate. The support of
every citizen is needed behind this
amendment, for all are benefited
every hour Of the day by trees or
the products of trees.

Dairy Business
Basic Industry
Is a Permanent Institution That
Radiates Prosperity, Declares
Speaker at Cattlemen's
Meeting.

Dairying is a permanent institu-
ton that radiates prosperity to
practically all workers of the coun-
try, X l.. Hatch of the Wisconsin
college of agriculture, declared in a
talk at the National Dairy Cattle
mems conference at Milwaukee.
THE foundations of the dairy bust
ness are laid so deeply in the eco
nomic structure of the nation, and
the reasons for its existence are so
vital to national welfare that it can
be regarded as our most stable and
permanent industry" Mr.. Hatch de-
clared
He referred to dairying as the
country's great basic industry"
"Since time immemorial, man has
required large proportion of ami
nal food in his daily Diet" Mr..
Hatch said. AS population presses
he has been gradually forced to
vegetable diet. Coincident with
this he has increased his consump-
ton of dairy products. In other
words, milk and dairy products, be-
ing cheaper TO produce and hence
more easily obtained, have replaced
other animal foods. Canada and the
Argentine are among the worlds
heaviest meat eaters but eat less
cheese per capita than any other
nation. While Switzerland, Holland,
Belgium and Denmark, where meat
consumption is relatively low, eat the
most cheese. Cheese easily becomes
the best substitute for meat when
ever and wherever population
presses.
mo other industry could stand the
losses and wastes which the dairy
industry endures, against severe com
petition, and long persist The
reason why dairying thus far has
been able to endure lies in the
inherent economy of the dairy COW
as a producer of food for man"

ACCIDENTS TO WORKERS
UNDER 81 YEARS OF AGE
Children's Bureau of the u. s. De-
partment of Labor Completes
Study of Child Labor.

Seven thousand four hundred
seventy-eight industrial accidents to
young workers under p years of
age occurred in one year in three
states, according to a study lust
completed by the Children's Bureau
% the U. S. Department of Labor
Thirty-eight of these accidents re-
suited in death and 900 in partial
disablement for life.
Wisconsin, Massachusetts and New
Jersey We're the states included in
the study. The cases of industrial
accidents to minors were secured
from the files of State Industrial
Commissions and Accident boards.
and were only those in which com
pensation had been paid; that is, in
Wisconsin, accidents causing disabil-
ity of more than 10 days duration.
The smallest number of accidents
and the lowest accident rate occurred
in the case of children under l6.
Each of the states studied had at
tempted to protect children under
this age by prohibiting them from
employment in certain occupations,
chiefly in the operation of the more
dangerous machinery, which is the
source of greatest accident hazard
to the young worker
Children of 16 and II were prohibi-
ted from some employments in Mass
achusetts and Wisconsin but in all
three states were permitted to oper-
ate many of the dangerous machines.
Accident figures reflected this diff
ference in legal protection. Power
working machinery caused a larger
percentage of the accidents to the
16 and II year olds than to children
under Unprotected by law--or to
young workers between 18 and 21-
better able to protect themselves.
Accidents were also more serious
to the 16 and II year group than to
either the younger or older workers.
OF the injuries to workers under 16,
1917 per cent resulted in death or
partial disablement for life. For
those 16 and II years old who were
injured, the rate was 1874 per cent
killed or permanently disabled; for
the group 1921 the rate was 1877
per cent.
