Conservation Week Announced by
Olson

Conservation Week Announced by
Olson
In a proclamation issued last
week, Governor Olson designated
May 3 to 10 inclusive as "Minneso-
ia Conservation Week" and Friday
May 1, as "Arbor and Bird Day."
The proclamation, in part, fol-
lows:
1.-The return of spring, after one
Of the coolest winters in Minneso-
ia history, brings new hopes and
new courage with which to face
the future. The hardships of winter
fade into the background and it
becomes a little easier to live and
work and play. But the spring sea-
son should also remind us that the
powerful forces of nature have not
yet yielded to the intelligence and
industry of mankind. A tremen-
dous amount Of planned work re-
mains to be done before it can be
said that we in Minnesota have
learned to make the most of the
many gifts bestowed upon us by
nature.
ut is essential to the welfare OF
the state that the conservation and
restoration Of our natural resources
be given an increasingly prominent
place in the education of our citi-
zens, so that they will lend their
support to the enlightened program
of conservation now being carried
on by the federal and state govern
ment.
zone week Of the year has been
set aside for the purpose of bring
ing the work and the problems of
conservation more clearly to the
attention of all our people. It is to
be hoped that during this week the
benefits of forestry, game conser-
walton, water control, and the other
activities of conservation will be
given wide publicity"

Elk imported from Wyoming and
released in the northwestern part
of the Red Lake Game refuge are
reported to be doing well, accord
ing to Gustav Swanson, game and
fish division biologist.
Elk became extinct in Minneso-
Ia about 1900. Several years ago
some of the animals were brought
here from Wyoming and raised in
Itasca State Park. According to
Swanson, similar re-introduction
of elk in Michigan about IL years
ago was very successful. There are
several elk in Michigan at the pre-
sent time.

Under the tripower monetary agree

Actual devaluation of the franc and

Because the Bourse was closed

of France to make francs available

expect such requirements to be met
through regular commercial channels.
