Just phone Coolidge Proclaims American Forest Week The week of April 24-30 has been officially designated for nation-wide observance as "American Forest Week" by President Coolidge, in a proclamation made public by the United States Department of Agri- culture. This year will mark the seventh an- nual observance of the week, President Harding in 1921 having issued the first proclamation which brought the Fed- eral Government behind the movement. Of the numerous weeks observed in the country, this is the only one to which the Government of the United States has given recognition and sup- port. The President proclaimed the 1927 American Forest Week "in the belief that no other of our internal problems is of greater moment than the rehabili- tation of our forests, now so hopefully begun but needing the strong support of our collective will and intelligence." He emphasized the importance of farm forestry as a means for lessening agri- cultural surpluses and meeting the problem of agricultural overproduction, and the resulting depression in the farming industry.
