Excerpt from Monthly Report: February 1924-March 1924
Entomologist at the Northeastern station, and Dr. M. W. Blackman from Syracuse. Munns represented the Forest Service. The general plan of coop cration between forest insect investigations and the experiment station work was considered as well as a general outline of the plan of work in forest entomology. It was brought out that as rapidly as was made possi ble through the allotment of funds, men should be assigned to the forest experiment stations to work upon the regional problems. The need for greater training in forest entomology was recognized and recommendations made that a high standard of scholastic training and a thorough knowledge of basic sciences be required by men undertaking investigative work.
At the call of the Weather Bureau, Munns attended several meetings of a Department of Agriculture group to discuss the preparation of a paper for the 1923 yearbook on weather and agriculture. The Forest Service has been assigned the task of preparing a short article oh forests to fit into the general paper which is to cover all phases of agriculture.
