Save the Redwoods League, “ organized to preserve the oldest 
trees in the world” aims to bring into unity of action all interests 
concerned with the movement to preserve such portions of the 
Redwood forests as should be saved to represent their fullest 
beauty and grandeur. The plans of the League involve: (1) The 
securing of a belt of the finest redwood timber bordering the 
northern highway, in the hope-that this area may become a state 
park, (2) The obtaining of a considerable body of the most 
typical primitive redwood forest known, for the purposes of a 
National Redwood Park. The annual membership fee is $2.00. 
The President of the League is Mr. Franklin K. Lane. Infor-
