"Forestry as an Aid to Re-establishment After the War" was prepared as a paper for the April meeting of the Northern Ontario Section of the Society. Its purpose was to open a discussion of possibilities for creating employment through forestry work in the post-war period.Much of the article deals with the accomplishments of the Civilian Conservation Corps of the United States. This enterprise was emphasized not only because it may serve as a guide to a future program but also because it shows that concrete results have been obtained in the use of forestry as an aid in reducing unemployment.The importance of indirect uses of the forests, such as tourist attraction and wild life conservation, has been stressed both because of their economic soundness and their value as a selling feature for a program of re-establishment.
