I am for the man with the jack-knife.
I believe in the man who does all he can and the best he can, with the means at his command.

That is precisely what the Forest Service has been trying to do with the money and law Congress has placed in its hands.
Every public officer responsible for any part of the conservation of natural resources is a trustee of the public property.

If conservation is vital to the welfare of this Nation now and hereafter, as President Roosevelt so wisely declared, then few positions of public trust are so important, and few opportunities for constructive work so large.

Such officers are concerned with the greatest issues which have come before this Nation since the Civil War.

They may hope to serve the Nation as few men ever can.
