Increased logging supported as fire prevention in federal forests
The House approved a bill backed by President Bush to accelerate logging on about 20 million acres of federal forests to reduce catastrophic fire risk.

Bush urged Senate action as administration eyes new forest rules and faster fuel reduction projects.
