K. Lands Reported I W. H. Horping, chief forester for the genera.1 land office of the Department of the Interior, re ports that 39,015,000 board feet of .timber oh tho revested Oregon and California railroad grant lands was sold at the regular monthly sale hold on April 11. The timber was on thirteen wide ly distributed areas, located In various counties In western .Ore- con. The total ,salo .price was $130,786.50. "V - The total sales of Q. & C. , tim ber since July 1, 1P43, amount to 304,107,000 board feet and sold lor $1,016,022.33. ', Timber sold from O. & ,C. lands has contributed substantially to the log supply so necessary to the sawmills and plywood plants In this area in filling the needs ot our armed forces ior lumber and other wood products. Most of the timber cut from government lands In western Oregon Is ob lalned from the O. and C. lands. The timber on the O. & C. lands is cut according to the re quirements of sustained yield' management. The total supply of.: timber available on these lands is ample to permit the per petual harvesting of 500.000,000! board feet annually. 'Managevj mem practices are in cuccr. which accomplish prompct refor estation of lands alter ripe tim ber is cut. In general, this is done hy leaving numerous trees for the natural reseedlng of ull such areas. In places, fire has taken euch a heavy toll of the green limber that reforestation by such natural methods is Impractical., Where that Is the case, the dam aged areas are reforested by the planting of nursery-grown seed lings. This season the foresters of tho O. & C. administration are planting 1,000,000 trees on such n area which was devastated by fire In the "disastrous 'Tillamook hum of 1933. While contributing heavily to .the needs of war, the management of these lands looks to the future and prepares lo sup ply .the endless needs of peace i'(tqr the war. LETTERS to the Editor LEXICOGRAPHERS GIVEN BRU8H OFF IN "ROMANIA" To the Editor: It appears that Ihe press asso rlatlqns have usurped the author ity of the lexicographers In the matter of geographical spelling. A. few weeks ago, without warn ing, came the dictum from the newspaper people that "Human la" should henceforth .be spelled "Romania." And "Homania" it became overnight, editors, proof readers, and linotype operators linrl to take It and .like it. Why .the change was made no body knows. The name of that explosive Balkan country has lit tle or nothing to do with Rome. It was one of the last acquisi tions. of the .Roman empire, and wbb soon lost. Rloanwhlle It had become populated by a mixture of Slavonic peoples who were the progenitors of the modern Ro manians. All .that was left to Identify the country with Rome HfHe( YOJP ON TH2 SCHOOL MEASURE . By CharUs VOTERS in the Roseburg school district will be called upon next Wednesday ;to determine whether there shall -fee created a fujid to ihe used in Most localities are at york on postwar planning, but Jlose burg cannot wait until the post war period. The need is here now and promises to become increasingly critical. , , , i The difficult part of 'the problem is that no one can defi nitely foresee the future. It is known that Roseburg and all of Douglas county will experience a tremendous industrial growth. Jf we Jyiew just 'how many newcomers ,wUJ njoye into, the county and the ages of the children who will seek entrance in our schools, it w.ould not .be .difficult ,to jfffiie mine .exactly how our facilities should be enlarged. We are fujly aware that enlarged school accommodations. Whether .the heavy de mand will be on elementary not De lorecast attue, present, time. Also to ,b,e .considered is tjlie the pay-as-y.qu-go method, We naye had experience .with bond issues. We know that for every JiOO.OQO we issue (in bonds, .we usually pay almost as much in debt service. In fact, the City of Roseburg paid three times .the .cost of its city nan in interest beiore it the bonds. Wo .believe it is generally for .emergency purposes, are (economically .usoutid yien jv;e can operatje.pn a pay-as-you-go ibasis and tjtus save intejret cnarges. , i The .directors of the Roseburg schqol district, we believe, have .offered a .very sound proposal. l;hey are placing before the if approved, tlevy a tax of not for a .definite perioti ;of ;iyo t,nis yoma ytod approximately ijhat sum ,or money could in need of increased facilities in our .elementary school systeni. We .perhaps can struggle along .with the existing high school arrangement fyr a few more years. JBut at leat ,pne .elementary .school cannot ,be delayed. It should be n prqcess.vtf .construction immediately. Ilpw.ever, it can not be -built for at least pn.e year, even if the special levy meets apprpval, and by that tinie it .will he imperative. ! l-ho plan .preposed to the advantage pf ilexibility, in that it provides money to mee.t qonilitip'n8 ;br,pught about by ohaiiging circumstances. Money aim -bo accumulted f pr major construction, .which .will -be definitely necessitated if population increases fpllow.tlie cur rent trend. At tne same time, utilized 100 per cent for will be. diyorted to meet debt fcvery eligible .voter should high school between 2 and 7 p. m. Wednesday and cast a l)nlloUipon ,this proposition.' 1 jit is not necessary to, urge tne opposition to vote. Those who do not favor the measure will bo out in force. -But 'those 'who approve and who desire to qqe ,pur school system maintained on an .efficient and jpro-: gressive basis are apt, experience proves, to neglect giving thoir endorsement by ballot. " I1T spite of the inroads .mad,e into our .govcrmnental sys-' cm, this is still a democracy and majority rule should pre vail, 'llnis the vpte on the school issue should be a repre sentative vpte and should include an expression from every eligible citizen. ' ' : was a tradition and a forin of Latin speech. For centuries un der the dominion of Turkey, it oceanic an Independent .kingdom In 1881. As late as 1938 standard dic tionaries spelled it "Ro'umania." Then the dictionary people de cided to drop tho '"o" and It be came "Rumania." Now .the press associations, casually brushing the lexicographers aside, .have changed the "u" to "o," wlt,h the result above noted.

R. Williams 1W4 BY Nt SIWVWE. IMC ' By SUSAN First a quick reminder that this is Double or Nothing night. The time is 6:30 and the broad cast, which marks the anniver sary of Mark Twain's death, comes to you from Philadelphia. For those of us who are Mark Twain fans (and they' are le gion), this should be interesting and lots of fun. Likewise this is the night for Name That. Song. We're sorry we cant give you any advance dope on this show: part of the ,fun of listening to this is ithe element of surprise that's al ways present, and it's so, good there's really no need to tempt us ;lo .listen with advance appetizers. Just remember the time is ,8:30. Now on to Saturday: Don't over look the good Scrvlcemens shows in.the p. m. Navy Bulletin Board at' 2, American Eagles in Britain at 4 and Flying High at 4:30. -This week's Chicago Theatre ot the Air at 6 d'clock brings you opera In the grand style. It's "Tales -of Hoffman," with Mar Ion Clailre and " Gilbert ' Russell singing the leads and Bruce Footo and Ruth Slater appearing In the supporting roles. We freely admit that we're not qualified to criticize, but If la Claire would sir(g as "purty as she .looks we'd like it better. "Downbeat Derby" come 8 o'clock is more our speed. Jo Stafford will guest this week and her recording of "Long Ago and Far Away" will be one of the tunes played. Remember you can now send your votes directly to Al Jarvis at KHJ, Hollywood 38, California; .you don't have to get an official ballot any more. Na turally the sponsors like lots of ballots but we'll be perfectly hap py if they'll just keep on playing all .that good music every Satur day evening. DIALfPlOG THE OLD JUDGE SAYS. . . "The war Stories I like best, JikIsc, pie the ones by the special writers overseas who live right with our troops. They give us a better idea of liow our men react to tilings going on over there and back here at home." "I agree with you, Sam. I never miss one of those stories in the Kipcrs or magazines. And there's one thing those writers seem to agree on no matter where they arc stationed with our men... ami that is that the men who have left their homc3 and families to go Probe of Counterfeit Gasoline Coupons Begun PORTLAND, Ore., April 21 (AP) A special Investigation unit in the district OPA began work today to combat a growing traffic in counterfeit gasoline coupons. . a.ili Jack L.
