By MRS. CHARLES G. DOAK

Preservation and development of
forests through education and leg
islation has been an important
phase of work in the North Caro-
lima Federation Of Women's clubs
for more than thirty years. Like
wise the General Federation of
Women's clubs has carried on a
nation wide program of education
as to the value of all natural re-
sources particularly the forests of
the country.
1t is not surprising that forward
looking citizens seeking support of
the development plan known as
Experimental Forests for the
South should call upon the club
women to spre d information
about its importance, and to sup
port legislation that would provide
forest farms where land owners
might learn the most scientific
method of raising and marking
timber.
Mrs. Rowland H. Latham, a past
president. of the state federation,
living in Asheville, has long taken
deep interest in conservation of
the beautiful forests In her section.
She is now asking that clubwomen
join her in requesting their Con-
gressmen to vote for an appropri-
alton of $4,000 to be used to fl
nance the establishment of exper-
mental forest farms in 10 centers
in the South.
