program Of rebuilding and Great
ing even greater resources.
I refer in particular to soil,
water and forest rebuilding. AS
our oil and other resources are
expended we need to be building
up a huge reservoir of resources
that can be created anew from
rich earth, water and the warm
sun. Trees can be made into a
million products from paper and
fuel to comfortable homes.
The price of lumber today at
tests to the scarcity of timber,
especially in the midwest and
east, where the timber resources
were criminally wasted. In my
home state of Wisconsin, there
is no question that if our forests
had been farmed instead of rap
ed, that they alone would pay
Wisconsin's taxes every fiscal
year, and the citizens of all states
around Wisconsin would buy
new homes at considerably less
money, benefitting everyone.
We used to hear the statement
made that steel would take the
place of trees. In the long run
this is not SO. Already the noble
tree is winning the respect that
it deserves as one of mans great
est friends and assets. Every day
toward the future, this becomes
more apparent. It is questionable
if God is able or willing to re-
place resources of iron, coal and
Oil for human beings. He is both
willing and able to make for us
billions of trees, if we help Him.
The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1959-10-29

! meant "when the body is laid
into the grave" Of course l deny
also that death is "as shallow as
the grave. Wasn't the whole
burden of my letter to prove that
something of us survives, con-
scious and immortal? But when
you define death" as: ''ignor-
ance, darkness, bondage, negativ-
ity, decay, stagnation, ETC." then
I must confess / lose you. Poetry
was never my strong point.
BY the way, why do you think
that proof that there is life after
death (you will pardon the ex-
pression) demands an "explana-
ton Of life - eternal life - love,
sensitivity, the things that be Of
God"? Don't you consider that
one point at time can be taken
up, without putting ones entire
belief into a single letter? My
own explanation of life after
death depends upon divine re-
velation, and to bring that in was
outside the scope Of my effort.
Now at last we come to your
final paragraph, the spot where
you n gu me- unequivocably:
"There is no death" Mr.. Hart,
I'm beginning to believe that you
are either a poet who rejoices in
metaphors, or else a Christian
Scientist. You gave only two de-
finitions of death, both repeated
above; surely you must admit
that bodies are laid in the grave,
