. A state park plan for New York, with a proposal for the new park bond issue. Parks. have a conservative value in forest protection. But a good portion of it will be purchasable and should be purchased by the state as occasion arises or as opportunity presents itself. The Forest Preserve is not a luxury; it is the necessity of a civilized people. In New York State and at the present' time, its first value is that of a protection of the vitally important watersheds of northern New York. Upon this protection de- pend great industrial interests which use hydro-electric power, the health and safety of communities large and small along the Hudson and other streams issuing from the Adirondacks; and especially the Avelfare of the City of New York, which is look- ing to the Adirondacks for the next increment of her water- supply. Eventually, the Forest Preserve may become a source of timber for commercial use; but that time has not yet come. WAS THAT THE CLICK OF A TRIGGER, OR ONLY A CAMERA? and will not come until it can be demonstrated that the state can do with her forests what private owners apparently cannot yet do in this state, namely, cut down, replant and provide a continuous forest growth profitably. Even in uses popularly called recreative the Forest Preserve is more of a necessity than a luxury in New York State. Here we have the greatest concentration of population of any state in the Union; the great- est strain of intensive application to work; and the greatest need for places and facilities for relaxation from nerve-tension and for health conservation. The state is investing capital in the constitutions of her people by providing this great place for tramping, camping, hunting, fishing and boating in the Adi - rondacks and the Catskills. 17.
