woodland in Warren
County.

excellent tree farming opportunities.
The certified 25 Tree

repeated crops of pulpwood
and saw timber.
Warren County's twenty-five
certified Tree Farms are apart
of North Carolines 1500 Tree
Farms. The 1500th Tree Farm
certified In the state was recently
presented to an Edgecombe
County recipient at the
annual North Carolina Forestry
Association meeting. This association
locally sponsors this
quality forest management of
woodlands program on a state
basis where as the American
Forest Institute nationally
sponsors the Tree Farm program.
Tree Farm standards are
high, but any woodland owner
can begin wise management
practices which, within a few
years, can bring his property
up to a point where It will
qualify as a certified Tree
Farm.
TO qualify for Tree Farm
certification, the woodland
must be (1) privately owned;
(2) managed for the growth
and harvest of repeated timber
crops; and 0) adequately protected
from Insects and disease.
Harvesting practices
must be of a type that assures
prompt reforestation
with desirable trees.
Each Warren County woodland
owner is urge# to investigate
the possibility at bringing
their forest land crop to
certified Tree Farm standards.
Say you saw It advertised in
The Warren Record.

TO THE PEOPLE 8
WASHINGTON, O, C. America
must always maintain
a at rone ay ate m of national defease—never
letting down bar
guard In the face of threats
of aggression from any corner
of the world.
S we keep militarily strong,
It la far less likely well ever
have to engage In open battle
with our biggest enemy, Communist
Russia.
Hopefully, the Administration
is doing all it should to
keep our defenses strong. I
trust that it is. But there may
be merit to some of the things
the critics are saying about the
present level of American military
strength and readiness.
Look at the trend.
Back in 1962, 48 per cent of
the budget was for defense
spending. This bad declined to
44 per cent by 1968, to 41 per
cent by 1970, and wUl be 37
per cent in 1971.
In view of these changes, I
think It's safe to say that
our national priorities have already
been reordered — using
the fashionable phrase — to a
considerable extent. This is
a big change during a decade
filled with actual war as well
as threats of war.
The Defense Budget is of
course still Immense — $66.7
billion for next year — but
nevertheless it is almost $6
billion less than last year, and
this Is a time when war is still
going on and whan the pries of
everything soldiers need .Is foln*
up.
Consequently, there must be a
sober sense of fiscal responsibility
In each and every expenditure
for national defense.
Not a dime should be wasted.
But we still live In an uncertain
world where strong national
defense Is absolutely essential
to our survival. We are
grimly reminded of this when we
look at some of the challenges
now fsclng our nation: s
durable solution to the Middle
East problem, internal stability
In Southeast A.ila and the prospects
fo^ American withdrawal,
American prisoners of war
In North Vietnam, growing Russian
navsl and military
strength, Chinese nuclear power,
and the outcome of the
SALT talks. These are Just a
few of the external uncertainties
confronting the USA.
How well the Nixon Administration
handles these and other
problems will directly affect
the future security, opportunity.
snd even freedom of every
American alive today, and generations
yet unborn.
For years the United States
had unquestioned military superiority
over the Russians,
and the Russians knew it.
Now, however, the pendulum
appears to be swlnglngthe other
awl otters In tte know km
■ate tteM facta unmistakably
dear.
Grim reality nfilnitlHtaa
not let down oar (Bard, that
we continue to develop and produce
the teat weapons lar defense,
that we continue to maintain
tte teat coabtitottoa of
land, aea and air fbreea ao
that no aggressor will eve*
be tempted to attack us.
It now appears that our military
experts must meet these
goals within tte limtt^toaa of
a tight budget and with relative*
ly few men to call on—perhaps
with no draft at all*, If tte
highly controversial proposals
of the Nixon Administrated
become law. And ao, our military
leaders have their work cut
out for them.
We should never tolerrfe
wastefulness In defense spending,
because we also have a
number of basic domestic
problems which must be solved.
At the same time, we cannot
afford to tolerate defenses
that, are less than adequate.
The world should clearly
know that America intends to
remain strong and free— no
matter what.
