CAROLINAS PLEDGED TO CONSERVATION BOTH GOVERNORS CHAMPION CAUSE OF NATURE-LOVERS "4,000,000 acres must be returned to timber production ..." ■'The forests and the wild life are a blessing ..." By O. MAX GARDNER Governor of North Carolina By IRA C. BLACKWOOD Governor of South Carolina ONE of the primary functions of government should be to work toward insuring the highest social standards and happiness of her people. At the same time, the government should strive to conserve the economic value in land that cannot be maintained without a certain degree of participation by the State. An adequate system of State Forests, Parks, and Game Refuges will help to solve these problems. Around 4,000,000 acres, or approximately one-fifth of our forest lands in North Carolina, are said to be unproductive today. These areas must be returned to timber production if the State meets the responsibility that is hers. Certain of these areas, under scientific management and properly distributed in a State system, will afford an example which will be profitable to private landowners in obtaining the highest possible returns from their holdings. We have many beautiful waterfalls, outstanding features of landscape, unique types of forest growth, places of historic interest, and other natural features that should be permanently preserved for the benefit and enjoyment of the people. Many of these areas should become units in a system of State-owned lands. The protection of streams for navigation, water power, city water supplies, public hunting grounds, and the protection of fish life are served by the development of an adequate forest, park, and refuge system. The conservation of our natural resources is a duty which we owe not only to ourselves but to the future. The protection of our forests, and reforestation, are of vital importance. Along with these naturally is included the preservation of our flora and fauna. It will be my policy as Governor to lend my encouragement and support to the efforts which my State is making along conservation lines. I am very happy to say that we have hunting and fishing preserves which attract some of the most prominent gentlemen in the nation to acquire homes here for the winter season. Our flora, nurtured in a fertile soil and a climate that is uniform and gentle, is profuse, unique and splendid to a degree that it is world-famed, and is a fitting setting for our plentiful fauna—a combination coloring our State with a rare beauty. It is only within recent years that we have realized the importance of these things of Nature which have been bestowed upon us and which for years we so recklessly destroyed. South Carolina now has adequate laws for their protection and these laws are being enforced. The forests and the wild life are a very great blessing to us. To retain them is not only a privilege but the duty of the State. Wantonly to destroy them is a crime not only against the laws of the State but against the laws of Nature, and against the alienable rights of those who ate to come after us. 320

Several articles on the Carolinas appear in this 1931 issue of Nature Magazine. The magazine was collected by George Masa. Born Masahara Iizuka and raised in Japan, George Masa (1881-1933) emigrated to the U.S. when he was 20 years old and, in 1915, came to Asheville, where he lived the rest of his life. Masa was active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
