Editorial In the April 29th copy of the Educator ' s Dispatch from Washington the follow- ing paragraph appeared. If the Nation ' s top conservation official, H. H. Bennett, could teach one class in your school or college for thirty minutes, he would try to get one thought into the students ' understanding. He would teach that the farmer who holds a piece of paper marked deed is only the temporary steward of any given acre of land. That acre, Dr. Bennett would say, is as much the property, of the city dweller in Philadelphia, St. Louis, Atlanta or San Francisco as of the farmer. Productive soil is the concern of everybody because it effects the well-being of everybody. The foregoing statement applies no more to the tillable land than to the lands which produce our lumber, coal, oil, natural gas, minerals, and similar natural resources which make modern civilization possible. In spite of imports, we are running behind on fuel oil at the rate of 400,000 barrels per day. And yet, we use our petroleum products as if they were as plentiful as water. A few of our large lumber companies, and they are pitifully few, have developed policies whereby trees are cut at a rate which does not exceed the rate of growth. For the most part, however, our forests, once seemingly inexhaustable, have been reduc- ed to an alarming point and the slaughter still goes on with little or no concern on the part of the average citizen. Of so little concern are our woodlands that careless- ness each year destroys thousands of acres by forest fires. The same is true for most of our minerals. War is particularly wasteful of these resources. Another world conflict will seriously deplete not only our own country, but the world in general of the reserves needed for the advancement or even the continuance of civilization. All must become increasingly conscious of the need for conservation, and world peace and cooperation is not a small consideration. The time, money and materials destroyed and wasted by conflict applied to eliminate disease and poverty could prevent a large measure of the suffering in the world.
