Stoeckler, director of the center, informed a group of mem representing governmental agencies and private industries here yesterday. The Forest County tract lies within the Nicolet National Forest bound- daries (except for 77 acres) and is situated just north of Hiles. It con- aries (except for 77 acres) and is growth hardwoods and about 1,100 acres of coniferous swampland. Stoeckler outlined the experimental forest area's features at a conference called by E. L.

Suicide Rate ot Officers High WASHINGTON, Oct. 23 The suicide rate of World War II offi- cers was twice that of enlisted men, and the number of doctors and nurses who killed themselves was I far out of proportion. Those are among the findings in an Army institute of pathology re. port based on -the studies of 1,179 1 suicides and 656 homicides among Army personnel.

Capt. Norman Zamcheck, now with the Harvard medical school, and Murray A. Geisler, an institute statistician, said many of their findings tended to support trends among civilians. For instance: i About four times as many dfers over 40 years committed suicide as did those between 20 and 29. Civilian statistics show that the suicide rate between 40 and 50 is from two to three times that be- 1 tween 20 to 29.

The report ascribed the higher rate among officers to greater age and responsibilities and said the probable reason for the large num ber of suicides among doctors anc nurses was their familiarity with and access to poisons and letha drugs. The 656 homicide cases studied presented a picture in some respect almost opposite to that of suicides The maximum age of homicid victims was between 20 and 30 And the rate among officers wa only one'third that of enlisted men Sixty per cent occurred in cours of lights and 42 per cent of the victims negroes. ern Wisconsin's forest lands. Co-Operation Pledged Demmon, following the session, said last night that he was "extremely pleased" with the conference and the results obtained. He said he was delighted with the cooperation promised by private industry and the co ordination pledged by state representatives and Indian service agents.

Besides the Forest County tract, the center here will supervise several other experimental forests and study forest management on a variety of smaller plots in the 26 counties of northern and central Wisconsin. Among the other sites under consideration for experimental forests are two in the vicinity of Drummond, in the Chequamegon National Forest, Stoeckler explained. Each of the forests will contain one general classification of trees, so that an overall picture of- the state's forests can be obtained by studying results from all of the experimental areas. The tract north of Hiles was logged off about 1900 and has a good second growth of hardwoods, toeckler explained. The area never as been touched by fire, so the rees are between 40 and 45 years Id and about right for start of ver areas in northern Wisconsin ave been touched by fire so that second growths have been retarded an average of about 20 years.
