Excerpt from Conservation of Hawaii´s Natural Resources: Before the Legislature, 1909; Addresses by the Governor and His Conferees Who Attended the Governors´ Conference With the President in Washington, D. C., In May, 1908; And by Others Ladies and Gentlemen: The House has invited Governor Frear together with several other gentlemen who attended the governors´ conference in Washington held at the invitation of President Roosevelt in May last, at which was taken up the conservation of natural resources of the country; and the Senate is sitting in session with the House to hear these gentlemen in order that they may gain from their remarks certain knowledge which will guide them in the matters which may come before the present session of the legislature I will introduce Governor Frear, who will open the meeting with a few general remarks covering the situation. Governor Walter F. Frear. Mr. Chairman, Senators, Representatives, Ladies and Gentlemen: The administration of President Roosevelt has been marked by an extraordinary number of not only remarkable events and achievements but great movements for reform and advancement, which could be instituted only by a man of his courage and energy, breadth of view and farsightedness. It is difficult to say which of these events or movements future historians will select as the most notable, but a great many believe that it will be the movement for the conservation, the development and the better utilization of the natural resources of the country. The people are becoming awakened as never before to the gravity of the situation, to the fact that the national prosperity is dependent upon the proper conservation and use of the natural resources. They are coming to realize as the result of recent investigation that the forests of the country will be exhausted in a single generation if the present wastefulness is not checked; they are coming to realize that there is very little public land left for settlement; they are coming to realize that in only a few generations the iron and the coal mines will be exhausted. Now, this movement for the conservation and development of the natural resources, while it has been preparing in one way and another for many years, has grown with wonderful rapidity in the last few years. It had its origin in many causes, but it came about principally through the feeling that the transportation facilities of the country were wholly inadequate.
