Forest Fires Menace
Wide Areas in Three
New England States
Thousands of Acres Are
Burned; Homes Rozed;
Situation Very Grove

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, May 12.-Forest fires in
the tangled woodlands wrecked by
last September's hurricane men
aced widespread areas in three
States today and officials through
out New England said the situation
was extremely grave.
Homes, farm buildings and val
liable timberlands were destroyed
as flames ragged along scattered
fronts in Maine, New Hampshire
and Massachusetts. Most of the
still-burning fires were under con-
troll, but officials kept lookouts post
ed on high ground to flash warnings
of possible new outbreaks.
In Maine, at least seven farm
homes and cottages were destroyed.
Fire flared in five woodland areas
and thousands of acres were black
ened in the other two States. Hard
wick in Central Massachusetts,, a
town of about 300 population, was
in serious danger for a time, but
an army of volunteers and c. C. c.
youths brought the blaze under con-
troll.
Incendiary Suspect Held.
Two other blazes swept through
the Winchendon, Mass, area and
about 1000 fire fighters from Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire sue
ceeded in bringing under control a
serious fire in the Sharon, N. H.,
region.
That blaze ragged in a region 2
miles long and more than mile
deep, cutting a wide swath through
valuable timber. A stiff southwest
wind, following two warm days,
famed the flames.
A wide swath burned in Cedar
vile, Mass, in the vicinity of the
Cape Cod Canal and an incendiary
suspect was held by Plymouth, Mass,
police in connection with blaze
at Carver, which blackened more
than 400 acres before flremen won
a three-hour fight to check it.
1900 Clear Woods.
tions were tightened
throughout New England as Of
fcials pushed preventive measures
Smoking in almost all woodlands
was barred. In Massachusetts,
where 1900 men were busy clear
ing woodlands, any male between
the ages of 18 and so was liable to
fine or Jail sentence should he re-
fuse request to help fight a forest
fire.
In New Hampshire. rural boys
organized All Forest Ranger units
to help detect and fight blazes In
Maine the 100000 acres of woods
were described as "tinder dry Ver-
mont expected serious fire threats
when the snow melts in about two
weeks and in Connecticut, where
several minor fires have been sub
dued during the week, burning of
brush was prohibited and hundreds
of workers were busy clearing hur-
ricane debris.

Forestry Association officer said
conservationists favor reorganiza-
ton of the conservation activities
of the Government when based only
on sound principles of resource
management. They will be found
unanimously opposed, he warned, TO
the transfer Of the Biological Sur
vey from Agriculture because 1t is
fundamentally wrong from the
standpoint of scientific and admin
istrative efficiency, longtime econ
omy and accomplishment"
President Roosevelt's Justification
for the proposed move, he claimed,
appears to be that the Survey should
go to Interior because that depart
ment handles the public domain.
AS matter Of fact, he said, the
national forests and wild-life ref
uges now In the Agriculture De-
partment embrace an area virtually
as large as the public lands under
the jurisdiction of Secretary Ickes.

A sharp attack on President
Roosevelt's move to transfer the
Biological Survey from the Agricul-
ture Department to the Interior De-

ization plan was directed today from
headquarters Of the American For

Saying the move was illogical and
would not serve the best interests
of wildlife conservation, Ovid Butler,
secretary of the conservation group,
added:
The work Of the Biological Sur
