Excerpt from Annual Report, the Secretary of the Interior: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1962 Dear mr. President: Transmitted herewith is the 1962 annual report of the Department of the Interior. In your conservation message to the Congress in March 1962 and again at the White House Conference on Conservation you emphasized that the continued availability of our life-sustaining natural resources must depend on our using them prudently, improving them wisely, and where possible, restoring them promptly. Since January 1961 this Department has been instrumental in the accomplishment of milestone conservation gains. These standout gains, advanced by a farsighted Congress, are the first chapters in meeting this Administration's goal of providing a conservation record in the 1960's worthy of the two R'oosevelts. Reflected in this summary of Departmental activities are the significant results now being achieved in the protection and develop ment of our priceless resources of land and water through programs for which the groundwork was laid with the beginning of this Administration. We can now indeed see new horizons in conservation progress which in the years to come will help to assure our continued security and progress as a nation.
