State To Hold Keep Maine Green Week
Governor John H Reed urged Mainers to observe August 13 to 19 as Keep Maine Green Week. He stressed forest fire prevention, noting nine of ten fires result from human carelessness and urged citizen thoughtfulness to protect Maine’s timber heritage. The program, started in 1948, is part of a national effort with local sponsor Maine Committee of American Forest Products Industries and broad cooperation from state agencies and clubs.
