He said that today there r g.
$4,000 boy members in the organ
cation or 24.6 per cent of the a.
$4,000 boys between the ages of
light and sixteen.
In order to maintain the same
alto at the end of 1868, when
here will be 1888 900 boys of
hose ages, there should be 4,173,-
700 Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and
Explorers, DR.. Schuck said. To
each one-third would mean S.
$4,000 boy members.

Boys of those ages. Boy Scouting
or ages from eleven through

ng for those fourteen years old,
md in the ninth grade and through
seventeen reaches one of every

Current total membership is
above 4,780,000 boys and leaders.
Since 1910. he added. more than
29,500,000 persons have been in
the Boy Scouts of America.
1--WE must strive to make Scout
ing available to every boy in
America, "Dr. Schuck wrote.
Looking ahead for the next
five years." says the Chief Scout
Executive, eve must recognize
that never has it been so import
ant or imperative that the youth
of u nation be trained to high
idealism, acquired through un-
selfish service, by self-reliance,
and cooperative effort.
"They must understand and
practice the basic principles on
which our nation was founded and
recognize that security is the fruit
of freedom and that without free
dom, there can be no security"
DR.. Schuck entered Scouting as
a volunteer leader in 1913 and has
been a professional leader since
1917.
Scouting's ideals and detectives
have remained constant since 1910
he said, while the program,
organization methods, and oper-
ating techiques have changed as
the result of study and under
standing of changing conditions
and as necessary to meet the needs
of a rapidly growing organizationF
He said the greatest influence
in Scouting's growth 'has been the
dedicated service of laymen will
ing to invest their time, their
energy, and their money in the
interest of training youth to do
their duty to God and country
and to preserve and strengthen
our heritage and to develop a
nation SO that it may be spirit
lally, dramatically, and mentally
and morally straight"
Calling camping the heart of
he Scouting program, the Chief
Scout Executive points out that
current and anticipated growth
would require additional camp
;ites and facilities. He warned
hat good camp sites are getting
career.
