THE NEW YORK TIMES ARTICLE BELOW and the millions lost 
through our Ohio and Mississippi River Floods opended the eyes of 
thousands of those who know little about the poverty in treeless

to 100% ' more of <> ur FARMING and grac¬ 
ing LAND THAN THE TOTAL AREA OF FRANCE, GERMANY, ENGLAND, IRE¬

FARMERS AND STOCKMEN NOW ON RELIEF MUST BE LOCATED ON OTHER 
LAND BY THE GOVERNMENT IN ORDER TO MAKE A LIVING.—AND CHILDREN 
OF TODAY MUST PAY FOR IT. 
“Upon the solution of this problem,” said Mr. 
Bennett, “depends the ability of the soil to 
support that great segment of our population 
which takes its living, directly from the land, 
as well as the ability of the nation to continue 
to produce from dtg own soil the necessities of 
national existence. 
“That ability to support and produce must 
be sustained if this country is to stay great. 
And it can be sustained only if the fountain of 
production, the soil, is guarded and protected. 
That is the task before the Soil Conservation 
Service.” 
As Dr. Lowdermillc pointed out, erosion is as 
old as the first rainfall but it did not assume 
cen”°Om68. BroPOrtions until comparatively ra¬ 
in the United States the problem is white- 
man created. For example, in the Piedmont 
section of the country, extending from New 
Jersey in the North to east central Alabama, 
along the east side of the Appalachians, all 
except 35 per cent of these 50,OUO,000 acres have 
been practically stripped of their top soil by 
rain and wind. 
The evidence is conslusive that when the 
white man came to the Piedmont, there was 
in that section not so much as a single gulley 
of the eroded type, nor a single acre of what 
Mr. Bennett describes as “raw erosion-exposed 
day,” Today there are not less than 20.000,000 
gullies in the Piedmont, all of them the result 
of the advance of civilization. 
This situation is typical of hundreds of other 
sections in every part of the United States, 
except New England and a few of the Western 
States.

EROSION IS RUINING 
TREMENDOUS AREA 
735,000.000 Acres, Once Fertile. Already Are 
Damaged From 25% to 100% 
LOSS ON A NATIONAL SCALE 
Soil Experts Find Only New England Has 
Escaped Ravages ol Rain and Wind. 
By I. C. SP.B3KRS 
WASHINGTON, June 13, .1936 — A. recently 
completed survey of the farm and grazing 
lands of the country by the United States Soil 
Conservation Service reveals a tragic picture 
of erosion conditions affecting every part of 
the nation except New England and certain 
widely separated areas in other parts of the 
country. 
The survey, which covered 1,889,000,000 acres 1 
discloses that today more than one-third of all 
these acres, once fertile far ming lands or rich 
forests and gr acing areas, are so seriously 
eroded that millions of acres are already des¬ 
troyed so far as agriculture and the livestock 
industry is concerned, while only immediate 
and vigorous action by the Soil Conservation 
Service, aided by the State and local govern¬ 
ments, and to an even greater extent by the 
owners of these lands, can restore the remain¬ 
ing acres to a portion of their normal pro¬ 
ductivity. 
The area of serious erosion includes all cul¬ 
tivated and grazing lands on which erosion has 
so far progressed as to affect more than 25 
per cent of it, and of these acres more than 
55,000,000 have lost practically all their topsoil 
and are so scarred with gullies that never 
again can they be restored to production. 
Add to this more than 105,000,000 acres from 
which practically all the topsoil is gone and 
another 511,000,000 acres from which 25 to 75 
per cent of the rich topsoil has been blown or 
washed away, and the magnitude of the task 
assigned the Conservation Service is evident. 
Four Times the Size of Texas 
Add to this some 64,000.000 acres practically 
destroyed by wind erosion and the result Is 
that about 735,000,000 acres have been from 25 
per cent to 100 per cent destroyed, for produc¬ 
tion purposes, by wind and rain or both. This 
Is an area four times the size of Texas, more 
than twenty-three times the size of New York, 
an area of complete or partial devastation out 
of which could be carved 146 States thg size 
of Massachusetts. 
Here is the official breakdown as disclosed 
by the reconnoiasance survey of the acreage in 
^ which erosion in the United States has reached 
or passed, the 25 per cent mark. 
Danger Fought in Forty-one States 
Of the nearly 2,000,000.000 acres covered by 
the survey, .the acres in which there is little 
or no erosion represent only 30.3 per cent of 
the total, and much of this land is not adapted 
to agriculture. The remaining acres have, been 
gullied or stripped of their producing topsoils 
in varying degrees—from 2 to 25 per cent. 
This is a birdseye view of the situation which 
the Soil Conservation Service, created early iu 
the Roosevelt Administration. first as a part 
of the NRA and last year as a permanent 
agency of the Department of Agriculture, 
seeking to check. 
Today 141 demonstration projects, for the 
education of the land-owners in the most 
approved plans for soil conservation, are oper¬ 
ating in forty-one of the States. Lands ir 
which the erosion threat is serious are being 
traced, and terraces that would reach from 
New York to San Francisco four times have 
been completed. 
Millions of acres ruined by unregulated 
grazing are being grassed again, gullies filled 
and forests created in every gullied place 
wherg there is reason to expect a tree of some 
sort may grow. 
The demonstration projects are staffed with 
agricultural engineers, foresters, spil technolo¬ 
gists. farm and range management experts, 
and agronomists, and. in certain areas, game 
management specialists. 
Trees Planted on Giant Scale 
A total of 400.000,000 trees will be planted 
in desolate areas this year and 800.000,000 in 
1937. Also, in the next three years, terraces 
that will reach from Npw York to Los Angeles 
sixteen times, will be completed. 
The problem, as H. H. Bennett, chief of the 
Conservation Service, put it, is a national one 
of the first rank, a problem the solution of 
which is vital to the public welfare, and to be 
solved according to the conditions prevailing 
in each locality. Hence the “coordinated” at¬ 
tack which is now under way. 
The Soil Conservation Service, baaing Its 
estimates upon the carefully worked-out re¬ 
ports of its engineers, estimates that $400,- 
000.000 is the value of the productive soil now 
being washed or blown from American fields 
each year. 
Since the exploitation of American land* be 
gan a century ago, the accumulated loss due 
to erosion as conservatively estimated at 
$10,000,000,000. and, unless effort* to curb this 
destruction are immediate and direct, the cum¬ 
ulative costs may reach $20,000,000,000 or even 
$30,000,000,000 within fifty year*, Mr. Bennett 
•aid. 
In the office of Dr. W. C. Lowdermilk, asso¬ 
ciate chief of the Soil Conservation Service, 
there as a huge map of the United States, 
which, with the exception of New England 
and parts of the Midwest, shows at a glance 
the magnitude of the task undertaken by the 
service. Thousand* of tacks, each indicating a 
focal point in the attack on the erosion peril, 
give evidence of the accuracy of the assertion 
of Mr. Bennett when he declared that erosion 
is. today, one of the most important of all the 
problems facing the country. 
100,000 Laborers Employed 
The Federal organization, created in the 
Roosevelt administration, to tackle the erosion 
problem, is now organized in forty-one States. 
The agricultural engineers, erosion experts, 
foresters, agricultural engineers, crop experts 
and water specialists, together with their sub¬ 
ordinates. constitute a regular force of about 
5 ,000 persons. Laborers employed in the service 
approximate 100,000. Add to these about 68,000 
Civilization Conservation Corps men, and you 
have the line-up of the national conservation 
army which is confronted today with one of 
the most stupendous tasks ever undertaken 
by a government agency. 
The battle is on all fronts, and the first lines 
are more than a score in number. The job is 
to save the good acres and to restore, where 
possible, land now unfit for agriculture to a 
point where weeds and grass can be grown 
and thereby make possible its use for regu¬ 
lated grazing purposes. 
The indiscriminate grazing on millions of 
acres is responsible for the destruction of vast 
areas. Cattle men and sheep men, in the 
fattening pf their animals, apparently never 
took into consideration tile fact that when the 
grass was gone, erosion was sure to follow. 
The denuding of millions of acres of grass 
and timberland more than any other one thing 
is responsible for the Western “dust bowl,” a 
tragic reminder of what was once a grass and 
tree covered area supporting thousands of 
happy families. 
There is a county in South Carolina where 
90.000 acres of once good cotton land have been 
ruined by gullies, and where 46,000 acres of 
bottom land, at one time considered the richest 
soil in the State, have been so damaged by 
sand and other deposits washed down from 
the uplands that today it is a dismal swamp 
practically useless so far as farming is con¬ 
cerned. 
In Alabama there are five coastal plain 
counties where a few years ago there were 
oOO.OOO acres in cultivation. Today these lands 
are a network of gullies, useless for agricul¬ 
ture purposes. The erosion service expects to 
reclaim them for trees. 
Texas Cotton Belt Hard Hit 
Again, there is the famous black belt of 
Texas, which a quarter of century ago was one 
of the greatest cotton producing areas of the 
South. Today it is scarred with deep gullies, 
its soil is no longer black but a mixture of the 
original top or black soil and sub-soil, some¬ 
times yellow, sometimes white. All of this has 
happened in the last fifty years. 
it was not many years ago when Oklahoma 
was the Indian Territory, a fertile land where 
gullies were a curiosity, where grass was 
everywhere, a garden spot in the heart of the 
nation. The government opened up the Terri¬ 
tory to white settlement and it came into tne 
Union as the State of Oklahoma, Erosion Is 
today costing Oklahoma about $50,000,000 annu¬ 
ally, and Oklahoma authorities say that of the 
State’s 16,000,000 acres under cultivation about 
13,000,000 are suffering from erosion and about 
50 per cent has already reached the gullying 
stage. 
In Illinois something like 12,000,000 acres of 
gentle sloping land, of high grade, today i* 
menaced by serious “sheet washing," which 
is the gradual shaving off of the top soils of 
unprotected farms. These lands, once black, 
are turning yellow. 
When a yellow spot shows, the erosion 
expert knows that the productivity of the land 
is waning and that a problem of major propor 
tions is in the making. 
These same yellow “damage signals- ar* 
also t <2 be seen an many parts of Iowa, Nebra¬ 
ska. Kansas. Missouri and South Dakota. 
The rich limestone soils of the Ohio Valley 
and East Tennessee are facing a land impover¬ 
ishment of serious proportions. Another seri¬ 
ously affected area is the eastern bank of the 
Mississippi, where the wind-blown soil* are 
being scarped with enormous gulleys, not to 
mention the flood damage, also a major factor 
Another area gravely menaced is the wheat 
belt in Northeastern Oregon. Southwestern 
Washington and Western Idaho. This i* one of 
the great wheat-growing section* of the na¬ 
tion, and heavy erosion la under way. Wind Is 
the principal cause of the damage in this 
sector. The lower coasts of California, Arizona 
Utah and New Mexico are other areas where 
I erosion is a serious threat, new York times

IT’S HAPPENINGEVERYWHERE 
Dear Unola Frank: 
Th* drought and sand storm* last year 
made us farmers realize what you say about 
planting traes Is true. 
75% of our Oaks are dying beoause the 
roots oannot reach water, and millions of 
small trees died last summer. 
We didn’t raise enough hay and grain to 
winter our stock. 8and covered our clover and 
corn after It was up six Inches. 
The Betz Farm you were raised on Is cov¬ 
ered with sand In places to 0 Inches. I wish 
you could see it. I don’t know what we will 
do with our big barns and dairy equipment 
with no hay or grain for this winter. 
Millard Helwlg, 
Deo. 20, 1036 Eau Claire, Wisconsin 
Business man don’t realize that farms In 
every etate are failing, and during 1936, we 
bought millions of pounds of pork, beef, grain 
and over 30,000,000 pounds of butter from 
foreign countries farmed for thousands of 
years, where they plant trees because It Is 
the law. Yet so many claim we are the only 
people In the world who do things, when we 
are slipping faster than we ever have In the 
history of this country. 
“TOBACCO ROAD” 
WE PAY YOU TO READ ITI 
The "hottest” proposition in theatrical his¬ 
tory of this generation. Closed by the police 
in many cities. The 
most sensational, yet 
authentio book, ever 
published depicting 
conditions surround¬ 
ing thousands of 
farmers with incomes 
of from 0 to a few 
dollars yearly, many 
of whom live two and 
even three families 
In a room. 
The greatest trl 
umph ever opened on 
_ _. w Broadway. Thousands 
turned away. Yet sensational as It Is, those 
who know nothing of what becomes of the 
millions of boys and girls who flock to our 
cities from worthless soil-eroded farms with- 
out trades or experience or what they do for 
a livelihood should read It. 
260 pages of facts which 99 out of loo, who 
know nothing about the ways of the world 
will say are exaggerated. 
Why pay $3.60 to see the play, or $2.50 
for the book. We send It In sealed packago, 
postage paid, for $l.io. Return It In ten days 
and we will send you a bag of assorted tree 
and shrub seed for producing over $50 worth

have done more to reforest this country dur¬ 
ing the past ten years than ail others com¬ 
bined. They have bought hundreds of thou¬ 
sands of trees which were distributed to 
pupils by superintendents of schools, thereby 
erecting their own living signboards on lawns 
which will be talked about for the next 100 
years. 
$500 spent for advertising in any other 
way would not cause them to become better 
known.

THE NATIONAL LUMBER ASS’N., WASHINGTON D. C., 1929 
Frank 8. Betz, of Hammond, Indiana, who 
retired In 1915, Is now Injecting his energy 
into reforestation, not a campaign of words, 
but of actual work. He Is setting the example 
In his home state, and urges men in other 
states to do likewise. 
Mr. Betz Is well acquainted with the log¬ 
ging and milling end of the lumber Industry. 
According to biographical sketch of him, pub¬ 
lished In 1929, In the official organ of the 
American Surgical Trade Association, he 
worked In a sawmill and spent 7 years visiting 
lumber oamps selling hospital insuranoe. Dur¬ 
ing this time he visited over 300 logging 
camps in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. 
He has traveled through Egypt, Palestine, 
China, and India and over every mile of rail¬ 
road In Alaska, and down the Yukon and up 
the Tanana. 
Tho work Is carried on from Indiana. In 
one letter ho writes: ”1 wish you would put 
me In touch with men whose hearts are In th* 
right place and who will do In their states 
what 8 am doing here.”
