Calvin Coolidge actually said...

"I can not escape the conviction that our industrial and agricultural stability will be strengthened by bringing into full productive use this great empire of land."

"One-fourth of our soil is better suited to timber-growing than anything else."

"It is not enough that the Federal and State governments have joined hands with the landowner in the first step toward forest rehabilitation, protection against fire."

"Consider what blessings the use of this land for intensive forest culture would bring to our country."
