If we are to have a strong America we must develop our great resources:
We must rebuild resource programs, pressing forward with forest development, water development, power development, soil conservation, and passing effective legislation to
control the pollution of our water and our air.
We must seek new breakthroughs in converting salt water into fresh, controlling weather, using atomic energy to increase our oil and mineral resources and developing new techniques of conservation.
We must recognize the increasing interdependence of all our resource needs by establishing a council of resource and conservation advisers to meet the needs of a growing population and an expanding economy.
We must use accounting methods which reflect the long-term return which investment in resource projects will yield, thus showing the true value of these projects, their real cost, and the nature of our investment in America's future.
