" The accusation was made by Representative fcllswbrln of pic Ron before the committee, now hearing' testimony on a bill to lake 472,QO0 acres of the indem nity (anils from Jurisdiction of the forest service and place t unjder the Interior department w liicji administers Oregon & Cal ifornia revested railroad lands. The map showed the revested lands and the Indemnity lands which 19 Oregon counties are nsking 40 bo put. under the Inte rior department. The counties get 50 percent of the Income from the lands administered by the do' parlhient and only '25 per 'cent of Income from lands administer ed "by llje forest service. " Facts Not Indicated Ellsworth told the committee, of which he is a member, there was nothing on the map to in dicate the forest service had pre pared and distributed it, nothing to Indicate the Indemnity lands were In dispute and that It 'Mo nies by Implication any were in I dispute." He said the map "was adroitly planned lo mislead" but said he would not have objected to It haij it clearly shown lis source. Lee Kneipp, assistant chief of the forest service, said the map was distributed to aid t ho mem bers In locating the land In ques tion and with the idea of being helpful. He said he assumed as lie 'and other forest service offi cials had testified at the time the map was presented It would he understood it was from the ser-1 ' Vice. I 'Same Treatment' Guy Cordon, counsel for the, Oregon counties seccklng shift In j Jurisdiction of the land, testified .wui iH-i-iMiuis nau noiu tne in demnity lands were part of the Oregon and California 'railroad grant lands and that other deci sions had hold they must be ac corded the same treatment as other revested railroad lands. The Indemnity lands had not been patented when the govern ment recaptured them and ,ua they were hi national forests civ. aled after the land was granted lo the railroads the forest ser vice took over their administration. Cordon read court decisions which held the government had no right to include In national forests land already granted to the railroad. His testimony con cluded public hearings o"n the measure. ' J By Charles V. Stantor. Ul M. CAMPBELL has resigned as superintendent of the ' Roseburg schools after serving the district for 20 years, first as high school principal and then as superiptenrJent'. He has held the latter pf flee for more than if years. His long tenure of office is,; jn fact, one of the best recommen tlatipns ho. conic rpceiyqj i ( , Prior to his acceptance of jlhe office,, Roseburg had a bad name for its treatment 'of school superintendents. It was seldom the man selecCd to jiead the schools could survive factional and clique assaults for more than fyo "three-year terms at the most, and some failed to las), put one contract:. Roseburg school fights were generally of aiinual occurrence ana ouen were extremely bitter. But since "Matt" Camp bell took over the job there litis not been a disturbance de serving the name "school fight." There has at times, it is true, been disagreement with certain of his acts or policies. 'No school principal, particularly one as energetic in his man agement of school affairs, could expect to avpid conflicts, but Superintendent Campbell's period of service in Rose burg sets an all-time record for harmony and cooperation in the conduct of school activities. He has been outstanding in the field of financial manage ment. At the time he assumed the position, the Roseburg district had. a total indebtedness of $177,500 in bonds and 897,975 in warrants. For a number' of years all district payments-had bepi) made py warrants, adding a heavy tax load because pf interest piarges. ' . tiWng .over the office of school superintendent in 1927.' Campbell introduced economies which resulted in erasure of warrant indebtedness l?y 1930. By the close of the current, year, thp bppded indebtedness of the district will have been! ! reduced to $57,,0Q.Q. This exceptional financial record has boon achieved in spite of an additional $80,000 bond issue, voted fp)- const ruction of Rose and Fullerton elementary,' schools, purchase of athletic fields, construction of a grand-'! Manq, ana recent acquisition ol property for a proposed ey elementary school in Riverside. Yap throughput the 17 years the niijlage levy has been low, compared villi districts of like size, and he improve ment was brought about without the necessity pf any special elections fop the purpose of raising funds in excess of legal limitations. Superintendent Campbell is not entitled to all of flic credit for this remarkabje achievement.' It could not have been ac complished without "the supervision and cooperation of an efficient board pf school directors and these elected officials should share in credit for the outstanding record. But it is the superintendent who is charged with the administration of policies and who recommends methods pf operation. Many of the economies which so vastly improved the district's financial condition were proposed and executed by' Mr. Campbell.' " : " ' ': ' ' ik achievements, however, have not been confined en tirely to the field of finance. He has shown exceptional ability jn the selection of instructors. Teachers" have been of unusually fine .character and ability and as a result the Roseburg schools have consistently stood among the leaders in scholastic surveys made by the institutions of higher education. Ho will continue with the Roseburg school system through the few remaining months of the school year, his resignation Ifoing effective July 1. J leaving the employ of the Rose burg district ie is entitled to take pride in a fine record of achievement and merits the appreciation of every school paf ron and taxpayer fop thp excellent service he has rendered. j OUT OUR WAY . 8y J.

Hammock, chairman of the Roseburg War Price and Ra tioning board, reports that great er' authority to "deal directly with price violators" will soon be dele gated to price panels of local boards. It is planned, Hammock has been advised by the regional administrator, to - authorize the local panels to-arrange for and recommend acceptance of volun tary payment by the violator of cash refunds covering over charges, hear evidence of viola tions, recommend action with re gard to penalties or prosecution and to serve as moderators in any dispiits. The expanded au thority, it is stated, will be dels gated as rapidly as personnel can be trained to administer the new powers. At the same time, the OPA an nounces that its entire volunteer price group at each board here after will be known as "Price Control Committees." It is the plan of the Roseburg board, Hammock stated, to en gage in educational rather than police work, as far as possible. Members will be designated lo visit stores for the purport of checking prices and will work with merchants in an effort to bring about complete accord with regulations. Cases of continued or deliberate violations will be referred to the board for action.

FERN FIRES FOREST FIRES Pf 62,000 acres of Douglas fir forest land burned last ...... j year, oyer 50,000 acres were early fern fires! No person would knowingly start a raging forest fire. Yet fern fires actually are forest fires . . . because their searing heat kills young trees instantly! Literally thousands of acres of prospec tive future forests are destroyed in this manner every year. Nature grows bracken fern on.logged off land to protect young' Douglas fir. seedlings from the hot sun. The little trees can usually be found under the fern mass. Fire in patches of dead fern do not destroy the fern roots... they come back, fast! But fire kills the tree seedlings and destroys the soil building value of dead fern. So fern fires actually destroy both plants and soil ... all that remains is bar ren land. Guard against fern fires! FREE TREES J1;"; Y" may ef Douglas fir seedlings FREh, for planting on fern patches and wood lots, just by calling at the forest industries tree nursery. N,squally, eight miles north of Olympia on the Pacific Highway at the foot ol the long, straight hill. These seedlings are two years old, tall and strong. Schools, worn ens clubs.
