Responsibility for a crash which sent three pepple to their decthe in a flaming airplane here yesterday was a matter of controversy today. An injured pilot, lack of fuel and lack of. altitude were cited as various sources as the cause of the craah. No plans for an investigation had been announced. The dead are Mrs. J. G. Galloway, 22-year-old bride of n Charlotte business man; D. Fred Kendrick, 30, also of Charlotte, and the pilot, George L. Vickery, 28, of Highland, N. C. Their bodies were burned beyond recogni-| tion before a holiday cyowd of hun-j dreds who milled about the burning craft helplessly. ? I Witnesses said the plane was flying at an altitude of about 200 feet some' 300 yards from the Municipal Air- j port when it side slipped twice, stalled) and then went into a spin, bursting into Humes as it struck the ground. Vickcry, a licensed pilot and a giaduate of the army ground school,' w.is reported to have broken his hand n < ently and had not regained the use of a. To this together with the low altitude, was attributed his inability to right the plane before the crash, k end rick, was a student pilot, l i.. plane, a three passenger Waco, wa- the property of J. P. Little of Char! ?tte. He said it was being used with his knowledge, but that Vick'.; had operated it on other Occasions . . j forestry In South Carolina Tr.< lory of our dependence on th* foK-'- one that cannot too often !* t !<i Abundance breeds neglect. After three hundred years of un!imii< ! U"-e of wood and other forest product - we find it hard to realize eithei th?- extent to which they enter into o n American civilization or the possibility that the supply may last forever. It i- well, therefore, for uj to be reminded that our prosperity is like that of the prodigal who has' gone through ins fortune without giving tin- proper thought to the future. One region after another has been cut until today the last our, original capital is dtsappearlng rapid-" ly in the virgin forests of the Pacific Coast. We shall soon have to grow all .of our own timber or go without,' and we shall be obliged to do so on millions of acres once forested and abused and now largely unproductive bind. The most serious part of this situation is that it effects South Carolina's welfare in so many different ways. Lack of forests means more than merely a shortage of wood, as important as that is. It means also undesirable changes in climate, unregulated stream flow, erosion; marked decreases in game, fish anil other forms of wild life and far le-s opportunity for healthy outdoor recreation. These losses are none the le. s real because they cannot always be' measured in dollars nnd cents. Lack of forests also means decreased in-' dustrial activities, with correspond-i ingly fewer openings for profitable employment of capital and labor. It means impoverished communities, lower standards of living and a social and economic loss that is beyond calculation. South Carolina ranks fourteenth among the forty-eight States in lum-; ber production. In 11)22 sho ranked twelfth. The lumber industry and wood working establishments provide; employment for more than eighteen thousand men and directly and in? direcly furnishes support for more j than one-tenth of the population* ofi the entire state. The annual payroll) from forest products in all forms' amounts to approximately $30,000,-j 000. Visualize, if you will, what d decrease of such a vast sum of money| to the State's payroll will mean to the economic and industrial welfare of South Carolina?a condition which' is inevitable but for the fullest co-{ operation and concerted action on the part of all timberland owners and progress loving citizens. W hen Young (iriffo, a popular prize tighter of another day, died in December. lP'JT. Tex Rickard buriei him at a cost "f over $800, because it was believed (Iriffo was a pauper.
