collection of all available data covering tho value of the 

 natural rosouroos of tho forest. I orpoot to socuro this 

 data froF. tho records of this oif ioo , supplement eel "by 

 personal o^orionoo . I onpect to malio a good , cc-rof ul 

 guess on tho "balance of tho information needed. 



Then I oirpoct to malic a general classification 

 'of tho different linos of worli in tho ordor of their im- 

 port anco and in conformity with tho Manual. 



I realize that any preliminary plan established 

 on the Porost from the data now available will of neces- 

 sity have to "bo revised as more accurate data is assembled. 



R3DI1TGT01I: 



I am more optimistic than those who have previous- 

 ly spoken on this subject. I intend to got data together 

 this winter for my preliminary plan. Many portions of 

 tho preliminary plan will naturally become parts of tho 

 final wording plans. Most of tho data for preliminary 

 plan can he shovm on maps and charts to he hung on wall 

 of Supervisor's office for ready reference. 



General discussion, in which the 

 fcroat advantaco of having as much 

 data as -Dossifclo on all classes of 

 worli shown 4n charts taol:od on walls 

 of Supervisors 1 offices, was made 

 clear "by Messrs .RodinG't on and 

 ton. Rodinston was more optimistic 

 than Rachford about tho difficulty 

 of getting a preliminary plan.
