Forest Fires Take Toll In Illinois Renew that snbscrlotkm to the Plaindealer nowl A total of 591 forest fires burned 17,863 acres of Illinois forestland last year. Five-sixths of these fires were started by careless smokers and debris burners, who accounted for 272 and 231 fires respectively. This was revealed in a report published by American Forest Products Industries. Based on official U.S. Forest Service statistics, it shows comparative fire loss figures for all states. National sponsor of the forest fire prevention program--Keep America Green-- AFPI is a non-profit organization fores supported by the country's leading wood-dependent industries. Illinois is one of the thirty states with organised protection for all tlands. Commenting on the state's for* est fire record, AFPI forester J. C. McCiellan called for intensified forest fire prevention efforts. "The Keep Green program, now active in twenty-eight states, provides an effective vehicle for citizens interested in combatting forest fire losses. All Americans," Mr McClelland continued, "must be made aware of the importance of fire prevention.
