bringing skyrocketing demands for
more recreational facilities. More
people, too, put heavier drain on
"non-recurring" resources, such as
metals and oil and gas. 1t is impera-
tive, he emphasized, that we get the
fullest possible usage out of all our
resources.
Speaking of the organizational
structure of single department., he
said if such an agency, whether under
a single head or commission, should
have a policy advisory board made
UP of citizens ttwho have a desire to
secure the highest possible multiple
use and development of our re-
sources
In Washington State, he pointed
out. the Governor, Attorney General
and Commissioner of State Lands
constitute the three elected mem
bers of the five-man Land and Re-
source Commission. The other mem
bers are the Dean of Forestry, Uni
versity of Washington, Seattle, and
the Dean of Agriculture, Washington
State University, Pullman.
All-important to the successful
operation of a department, in addi-
ton to having sound, workable en-
abling act. is the picking of personnel
who are dedicated to the work they
are doing. Cole stated. He added that
his department had been unusually
fortunate in inspiring conscientious,
professionally-train people to join
it's staff.
RESULTS OF CONSOLIDATION
In Washington State, he said, 1--WE
are getting more productive accom-
plishment with the same amount of
money! as a result of consolidation.
He listed the elimination of over
tapping and duplication of effort
prevalent before the agencies were
put under one single head. Also, sepa-
rate buildings and area headquarters
for the several agencies are no longer
needed-which saves considerable
money to be used for actual conser-
walton work.
Legislatively, he said, it is much
easier to go to the assembly with
single program for consideration IMAM
it was before consolidation when
much confusion developed over the
requests of the numerous agencies
involved in resource management.
AS a preliminary to consolidation
he said group, such as MCC, should
set up a tentative pattern, program
and organizational chart and kick
it around" with various resource
users groups, that the best possible
LEGISLATION can be drafted to facilitate
consolidation.

journal and other publications in sue

PRoPoUNDs UNIFIED APPROACH


State Forest Moon, reviewing the
multiple-uses of the forests, said that
the conservation problem lends it
self to the unified approach It's
the specifics that cause troubles -
Such single departments, he stated,
are complex, but if properly set up,
and if the personnel sis motivated by
desire TO do better job, one agency
can be of tremendous value for the
future. Moon, apparently bearing in
mind the inadequacy of legislative
appropriation for most resource agen-
cies, eschewed the idea that consolida-
tion would result in economy. Instead,
he said that consolidation would help
to bring about more efficient, COM
prehensive multiple use of our re-
sources. Such a department, he said,
would facilitate balancing and evalu-
ating each resource-whether soil,
water, plants or animals-to secure
the maximum benefit therefrom.
Each division of a single depart
ment, Moon stated, should have lead
ership which will develop competi-
tive spirit toward encouraging the
wisest use and preservation of all
natural resources.
What good would single depart
ment do for State Forestry? he asked.
1t could mean availability of more
fire wardens in time of need, the
developing of a larger base of public
employee interest in fire prevention,
and an .all-around fostering of the
forest resources for today and for
future generations.
His department., he said, through
timber sales, grazing rentals, cabin
site rentals, and other sources of
income, provides funds to help pay
for education. Yet, he said, looking
at timber as solely source of reve-
nue. does not ensure the greatest
possible use of that resource
that every timber sale must be
considered in its relation to fish
ing and hunting, recreation, graz
ing, etc.
Moon, a student of conservation,
is definitely of the opinion that a
single department "could do much
better job of co-ordinating resource
use for the greatest overall good"
GROUP SESSIONS
Saturday afternoon, those present
split into three groups and discussed
the pros and cons of single resource
department.. While there was con-
siderable opinion that it would be
we'll for Fish and Game to be ex-
cluded, the general sentiment APP
peared to be that the hour is getting
late and that wise stewardship of our
resources necessitates the establish
ing of such single resource agency.
The conference acted on only one
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1961-05-19

resolutionHa resolution to the Mon
tana Legislative Council asking that
"any proposal for consolidation of
the States natural resource depart
ments place major emphasis upon the
basic detectives of resource manage
ment; and that the administrative
structure of combined department
be designed:
1. To avoid irresponsible politi-
cal interference;
2. To preserve the progress al
ready made in their respective
fields by the agencies to be COM
bined:
3. To permit wide participation
in the formation of policy, and
a. To provide for long-term con-
tinuity of policies and programs.
TO ACCOMPLISH GREATER
SERVICE
Professor Arnold Bolle of the MSU
School of Forestry, and a student of
conservation and political science,
summarized the days discussions.
Bolle said the purpose of reorgani-
cation and consolidation is to accom-
plish greater service for all users of
resources. He said economy is not
the primary objective; that it is far
more important that we develop wise,
long-range resource utilization pro-
grams which will protect the future
as we'll as meet present needs.
He said the present dispersion of
resource responsibilities in various
departments causes a competition be-
tween agencies, and an overlapping
of activities which could be eliminated
in one efficiently set-up and admins
tered resource department.
In setting up single department,
the MSU professor cautioned that pro-
tections must be written in to provide
a minimum of personnel upsetting;
that diversion of earmarked and fee
funds has to be given careful atten-
ton, and that a strong civil service
system should be instituted to mini
mize threats to jo0 security of highly
trained professional and technical
starters.
THREE DIRECTORS NAMED

at short business meeting presided
over by MCC President Wilson F.
Clark, Billings, four directors were

There are, in the SO districts, near

agement, Agricultural Sterilization
Program and other agencies, Ander-
son saw the very definite need for
consolidating various resource agen-
cies under one roof. Pointing to an
organization chart of Montana's state
government and its myriad of divi-
sions, he said ''it's time for change
the present set up is cumbersome
there is a need for thorough
going reorganization :" Particular
ly did he stress the need for consoli-
dating agencies concerned with sur
face resources water, timber,

CAPE CANAvERAL, Fla,
Feb. % (AP).-A Project Mer-
curry man-in-space capsule, ap-
parently in excellent condition
after a Furnishing rocket ride,
was returned here today for
minute examination.
Scientists and engineers
eagerly studied the 1-ton space
cabin. After q quick examina-
ton. one commented: Except
for the scorching, it look just
like 1t came from the factory"
The metal body Of the vehicle
had been blackened by the
5000 degree re-entry heat dur
ing the 12,S50-mile-an- hour
trip on Tuesday. Otherwise, it
seemed to be in good condition.
There were no visible dents,
and there were no cracks IN
the capsules two glass port
holes.
The spacecraft was lofted 107
miles into space by an Atlas
missile and landed 1,425 miles
down range in q test which
