'IF'
 FINAL OBSTACLE
 10 WORLD FLIGHT

WASHINGTON, Oct g. - Final government approval of a projected globe -girdling flight by as many as two dozen B-29 Superortresses hung today on a diplomatic if"
 Officials predicted privately that the State Department probably will approve the Army Air Forces plans for the flight--if some way can be found to minimize the venture as a type of big stick diplomacy
 The problem confronting the State Department is that whatever may be the intentions behind the project, diplomats here and in for eign offices around the world ap- pear certain to read into it various political implications
 This is a source of concern to American officials who contend that United States relations with Russia-although based at present Cn Secretary of State Byrnes pol icy of "firmness "-must be kept in balance. They particularly do not want to present any evidence of sWord-rattling or other gestures which might upset world affairs at a particularly difficult juncture.

ANDERSON REPORTS FOREST PROBLEMS .HIGHLY "CDITlCkl"

WASHINGTON. oct. 9.-Secre- tary of Agriculture Clinton P An derson told the nations forestry leaders today that never in history have the problems of forest con- servation been more critical"
 Anderson blamed the timber shortage on this nations continu- ed failure to manage it's forests conServativelyn
 In an address prepared for the opening session of a three day for est congress convened by the Am erican Forestry Association, he sug- gested this three point action pro- gram to cope with the problem:
 l, Public cooperative aids to the private forestland owner particu- larly the small owner.
 2. Public control of cutting and other forest practices on private lands sufficient to stop forest de- structon and to keep these lands reasonably productive,
 3. Expansion and intensified management of public forest lands Federal, state and community.
 Anderson said the saw-timber growing rate is shrinking at such rate that the annual cut, together with natural losses, already exceeds growth by 50 percent.
 I've need a margin of growing stock lcr national security, for un- lCrcseen emergencies, or for new uses, he said.
 we will need an additional mar gin for eventual export if the na- tion is to play it's part in helping to meet world requirements tor timber
 Today we haven't any margin We have less than no margin. The nation is operating it's forest busi- ness in the red"

BOSTON, Oct 9.-They're talk ing about the weather in Boston even more than they're talking about Ted Williams failure to hit through the Cards lopsided defense and that requires a lot of talk. The weather man predicted that it will be cloudy and cool today pretty miserable baseball weather but that rain would hold off un- til after the third world series game. Rain. at this time of the year in New England, usually means a northeaster that keeps bringing in water by the bucketful for about three days The only ones in favor of that is a local writer WPO, like many others of the clan, is feuding with Red SoX owner Tom YaWkey Much as I'd like to have it over" he explained, Tt would be worth having it rain just to make that guy feed the mob at press headquarters for four or five days
