and thereby subjecting them at every

Discussing the relation or forests
to stream flow, Col. Roosevelt declar-
cd that one great reason why floods
are growing more'nnmerous was be- .
cause of the denudlng of uplands of
their fprests.
. “Some men of good repute have de-
nied the relation of forests to stream 1
flow.”‘ he said. “Others” .who have
firmly believed in the truth of it, un~
til recently have been unable to pro-
duce figures their opponents could not
deny. Now, however, the facts areI‘
proved beyond the shadow of a doubt
by the work of the government in
the White Mountain region of New

Further cinvestigations not yet pub-

effect of forests on stream flow.
These conclusions eonhrm’ the result l
of the forest service. Therefore we
may regard the question as settled
beyond dispute."
Col. Rosevelt recommended the con.
struction of a complete reservoir sys-
