FUND TO STUDY
TREES
To investigate methods of in- creasing the growth of plants, especially trees, and the rate at which they convert sunlight Into cellulose and other wegetable sub- stances valuable to mankind is the purpose of a gift or $815,773 -an- nounced recently by Harvard Un!- versity. Dr. Godfrey I. Cabot, of Boston, a graduate of the class of 1882, is the donor. He has de- signated the fund as the Maria Moors Cabot Foundation for Bota- nical Research.
This foundation, Dr. James B Conant. president, said in connec tion with the announcement of the gift, "is a first and highly import- ant step toward the creation in Harvard University of a broad and" far-reaching program of advanced research and instruction in the whole range of the conservation of natural resources.
The current organization of the Harvard Forest and the creation of the Harvard Graduate School of public Administration have sharp- ly focussed the attention of the University on the urgent need' and the opportunity for such a pro- gram."
CABOT FOUNDATION
The significance of the research which Harvard will start this year under the Cabot Foundation was also emphasized by Dr. Elmer D. collections at Harvard. Merzul, administrator of botanical
"The
extraordinary achieve- ments in improving the vigor, food hardiness, and productivity of animals by scientific selection and
plants and of
domestic
by hybridization are common knowledge," he said.
"It is only in the past 150 years that Europe has used intensive forest culture, and only in the past generation that America has made a beginning in that dirección. As, the forests of the world are under however, only about 15 per cent of scientific cultivation and the rest are being threatened by destructive exp'oltation, the danger to the world's future supply of word and cellulose is apparent.
"One Important and promising solution of the problem lies in im- proving the strains of trees used in the cultivated forests of the world, and it is on that aspect that Har vard University is now enabled to
launch a significant research pre gram through the generous glit of Dr. Cabot,"
