ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW. ROSEBURG, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, MAY 13. 1936. TWO RULE OVER POWER i Di 10 BE FIXED McNary and Bone Drafting Bill to Govern Service From Bonneville. WASHINGTON, May 12. (AI) Following ii Willie JioiiKB coiifer- .,,. K..II.1ID1S ilono (!., WhsIi.) and MciSaiy (II.. Ore.) started work today ou u eomuoiilUi bill to luovldo administration o( the IK evllle project by army engl- nevrt mid Hie (edcral wowor coui mllon. They said (lie queallon of an ail mlniuli alive autliorily for Grand Coulee was "out of the picture" for the present. The conference yesterday decid ed upon the course to be Incor porated 111 tile new bill, deslKned to stand at least until a federal policy of uniformity In rates for all federal power projects cuu be put into erfect. McNary and Done said the com posite bill would provide a 10-year limitation on contracts, with a pref erence light given those taking u 10-year option. Public aKencies, as provided In the McNary-Hteiwer bill Introduced two weeks ago, would have a prior claim of DO pur cent of Monheville power. The Mi'Nary-Hteiwer bill waB a composite of the orlgiuul McNary bill, Introduced last August, and the ilone-Bclnvellenlmch bill. It will be discarded and the four Oregon and Washington sunutors will pre paro a new measure uddlng the new power policy declarations. It will be Introduced us the McNury-Ilono- Steiwer Schwcllenlrach bill, they suhl. It will bo submitted to the fed eral power commission, army engi neers, rural electrification admin istration and officers of the Ten nessee valley authority before it Is introduced, probably the latter part of the week. Not to Be Binding Bone said the conferees ugreod the bill should not contain pro visions or declarations of policy that would establish precedents or bind the federal government to specific rate structures or operat ing programs for Its power proj ects. The "uniformity in rules'' declaration Would also apply to transmission unci power plant op erators, ho suhl. Schwellenbuch siild I ho general policy declarations to be written into the new hill would he riexlble enough tu permit adjustments, par ticularly with respect, to Boulder Canyon dam, where - rates were based on the cost of production by steam ut l.os Angeles, "a method which In outmoded."

The report, which wan submit ted to (ioveruor Martin by Onitond It. JJean, board chairman, was the work of the advisory committee on forestry, of which 0. J. iiuek, regional forester, is chairman. H was written by J. Klton Lodewfek of the Pacific northwest experi ment station, who headed a sub committee ou forest products. Available lumber distribution data for the period Wl'i-'i'l indicate that the lumber Industry in Oregon and Washington Is dependent largely upon outuide markets, only one-fourth to one-third of Its pro duction being consumed at borne," the report says. "In foreign mar kets western woods have maintain ed their competitive position ex cept where adversely affected by trade agreements in which Ameri can producer had no part. Do mestic markets havo been retained and even augmented at tho ex pense of competitive woods wher ever water or rail rates have been favorable." 'Flow maps, which depict gra phically where lumber from the two northwest slates went for each of the years studied, also show amounts for the years, wliile other maps and churls indicate the gains made over southern pine and other woods." The report dramatically brings to the fore two Important phases that should be of interent not only to lumbermen, but to ull citlens of the state, it was pointed out by J. C. Keltie, supervisor of research for the planning board, comment ing on the study. The first Is that Oregon lumber Is being used to meet an Increasing portion of the national demand, and that any im provement In national conditions will immediately benefit this state. The second Js that a policy of con servation and reforestation is of utmost importance to the state. This Is shown In the Hectlon of Ihe report on tho lake states, former ly great lumber producers, where I ho policy of 'cut-out, eut-out" wiih perceived. Conservation and re foroKlaliou was neglected In I bene states and now more than half the lumber they use must be imported. Oregon must have a new forestry conservation program If It is lo es cape a similar fate, Mr. Kettle shows. Opportunities Overseen A great opportunity for North west lumber Is Been In the "prairie states" of North and South Unkola, Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas, the report shows. 'All reports indl cfitr that maintenance nnd con f?7 ZD1 ffcF jr Jsw Crf Srv m U lrUS Yofjrcn"tlceep good news from spread ingso Ihe word is out lliut the hand some Scries !() liuick Special is not only big, but umuy.ingly Ihrifly to bool! One fellow, for insluncc, writes that he is getting three more miles per gallon thun tho salesman promised why, asks he, don't we print such important news? The (net is, we don't advertise specific tniles-pcr-gallon figures because you sim ply can't set a figure that could he right for ail drivers under all conditions. So, instead of following the popular custom of claiming the world, on such matters we prefer to play safe and "lulk small" leaving liuick's really surprising frugality to be one of those struction have been so long defer red that a greater than normal de mand will be created if acd when farm incomes justify more than a subsistence existence," it states. "A large portion of the Increased market can and should bt applied by Pacific northwest lumber." The opportunity for lumber from the states of Oregon and Washing ton is illustrated by noting that from l'JZ'i to 1921 approximately 50 per cent of the lumber used by the prairio states originated in the nortnwest, while since 1U24 ap proximately 60 per cent has come here, a gain of It per cent. A striking fact brought out by tho study is that northwest lum ber has made consistent gains in the very heart of the southern pine region, while in nearby sections, and in regions formerly largely served by the southern wood, the gain Is very marked. Southern State Supplanted "Tho most conspicuous gains in the proportion of lumber require ments supplied have been made by Oregon and Washington in the North Atlantic and New England slates," the report says. "This Is attributable to favorable water transportation facilities and rates. Continuance of existing conditions should make possible the mainten ance of u strong competitive posi tion for western woods in these territories, in 1922 and 1923 Ore gon and Washington furnished one seventh of the lumber used in the North Atlantic states, about four sevenths came? from the southern pine region, and two-sevenths from other sources. Since then the demand tor Oregon and Wash ington lumber has increased until these states meet three-sevenths of lie requirements. Simultaneous ly, southern pine has lost ground so that It now furnishes slightly less than three-sevenths. "In the New England states, Ore gon and Washington lumber has gradual supplanted that from the southern states. In 1922 and l!i2,i Oregon and Washington furn ished approximately one-fifteenth of the lumber used in New Eng land, and the southern states furn ished between three and four times as much. The proportion originating In Oregon nnd Wash ington gradually increased until in l!tU2 It was four-fifteenths or the total. During tho same period the proportion furnished by the south ern pine region decreased to two fifteenths of the total. "Foreign distribution h:ts follow ed the same general trend as has domestic! distribution. There were rather counts tent increases from 1922 until 192K, followed by a de crease In 19110 and a still more marked decrease In 1932. The 193; distribution to foreign countries was only 3o-iu per cent of that of the 1928 peak. "Japan has been rather consist ently the largest mirchaser of Ore gon and Washington lumber. n nice things you r 1922 and 1923 this country took ap proximately 60 per cent of what is here considered a exports. The proportion decreased rather stead ily until iu 1932 Japan absorbed 30 per cent of Oregon's shipments and 41 per cent of Washington's foreign lumber shipments. A por tion of the decrease may be attri buted to a leveling off of the execs aiye demand of 1922 occasioned by the Japanese earthquakes but a portion Is also attributable to the growing practice of purchasing re quirements in log form. 'As the Japanese demand de creased there was an Increased de mand from China. Until 1928 China took less than 10 per cent of Wash ington's foreign shipments, while during the same period the Chi nese demand was from 12 to 24 per cent of Oregon's foreign ship ments. By 1932 China was taking 27 per cent of Oregon's and ap proximately 2U per cent of Wash ington's foreign lumber. Kallroad ties, cut principally from second- growth Douglas fir timber Btands, comprise the bulk of the loadings for China. Britain Cuts in "The two markets showing the ; greatest decline during the period under consideration are the United Kingdom and the Australia-New Zealand markets. The losses In both markets are attributable to the same source, the British em-, pire preference trade agreements : of 1932. From 1922 until 193o the Australia-New Zealand market ab-l sorbed from 11 to 15 per cent of: Washington's foreign lumber ship ments, and from 12 to 26 per cent of Oregon's foreign shipments. In 1932 Australia took only 1 per cent and 4 per cent, respectively, from these sources. "The United Kingdom market showed a similar decline. Where as by 1930 Great Britain and con tinental Europe were taking better than 15 per cent of the foreign lumber shipments from Oregon and Washington, in ,1932 the de mand from these sources compris ed slightly over 7 per cent of the total. "The maps clearly indicate the degree to which both Oregon and Washington are dependent upon outside markets. During the yeat'B 1922-1930 between one-fifth and one-fourth of the lumber produced in these states and sold in contin ental United States was consumed within Oregon and Washington. At the height of curtailed lumber production the quantities used at home decreased in volume but in creased In proportion until they ap proximated one-third of the total domestic distribution. This prob ably indicates that as the selling price of lumber decreased a small er part of the production could be shipped any grout distance and a larger proportion was dumped on local markets."
