FORTUNE WRITERS
TOUR FOREST HERE
Magazine To Carry Article
Next Spring On Nation
al Forest Service
Two Fortune magazine feature
writers, Mrs. Selma Wolff and
Payson Loomis, spent Tuesday
touring the Pisgah National Forest
and other scenic attractions of
Transylvania county.
Accompanied by Ranger Bill
Huber, J. Herbert Stone, regional
forester, of Atlanta, Ga., R. M.
Conarro, regional chief of In
formation and Education, and
Carl G. Kruger, forest supervisor,
the writers had luncheon at the
Ecusta Paper corporation and
toured the plant there.
The March or April issue of
Fortune will carry the article that
is now being prepared by Mrs.
Wolff and Mr. Loomis on the Na
tional Forest service, it is report
ed.
“We are using this particular
section of the Pisgah range for
color,’’ Mrs. Wolff said. Pictures
of the local National forest, which
were taken by staff photographers,
are being submitted to Fortune to
be used in collaboration with the
article of Mrs. Wolff and Mr.
Loomis.
It was explained that several
years ago Fortune magazine car
ried a series of articles on the
various National forests, but that
particular emphasis was placed
on those in Western America.
“This is not the case this time,”
Mrs. Wolff stated, “for we’re find
ing the information we want and
need and the outstanding forests
right here in Eastern America,
and in Transylvania county, for
that matter.”
