Cover. The symbol of the Sixth World Forestry Congress set up in laminated wood at the entrance to the Madrid Fair where an international exhibition covering forestry, hunting, freshwater fishing, equipment and furniture staged. Another feature of the Congress was an international festival of 96 forestry films produced since 1960, from 41 countries: 33 awards were made. "The paper forest," an entry from the United States, won the grand prize. "Usutu" (United Kingdom) was selected as best educational film with the U.S.S.R. film "Reclamation of boggy forest areas" second. "La forêt, pourquoi?" (Switzerland) was judged the best information film, followed by "Nace un bosque" (Cuba).
