ANOTHER NEW INDUSTRY
By Charles
Douglas county is to have
say "another"' because industries have been moving in so
rapidly that it is difficult to keen pace with them. But we
are particularly interested
American Cross Arm company, which is preparing to start
construction immediately on a mill at Roseburg', because
this plant may be the beginning of a new chapter in our
industrial progress.
It is our opinion that the great field for industrial develop
ment in Douglas county lies in
have the Pacific coast's largest remaining stand of mer
chantable timber. But a large part of that timber is de
stined to be placed on a sustained yield basis, which fixes
a limit on the amount of raw lumber which may be cut
annually. We are approaching very rapidly the sawmill
capacity which may be maintained under sustained yield.
This does not mean there is not room, at least temporarily,
for more mills. In fact, many millions vt feet of timber,
privately and publicly owned, will not come under the sus
tained yield program. This volume of uncontrolled timber
will supply extensive mill operations for many years. But,
eventually, We will reach a
limited to, annual growth.
have built up a much larger -cutting capacity than the
eventual sustained yield program will support, the surplus
mills those failing to set up
unit will be forced out of business and someone will be hurt
financially.
In normal times there is only a small margin of profit in
sawmilling, particularly under a transportation handicap
such as has existed in Douglas County. When rough lum
ber goes into construction or finished manufacture, there
is a very substantial amount of waste.' It becomes quite ap
parent, therefore, that by producing the manufactured
product near the source of raw materials, cost of transporta
tion on waste is eliminated. '
Douglas county offers an exceptional opportunity to wood
manufacturing industries. There is a field here for several
plywood -plants. There is room for sash and door factories,
plants to manufacture broom handles and dowels, furniture
factories, etc. The list is long. In addition, we should
have plants for the manufacture of alcohol, adhesives, chem
icals, plastics, etc., from sawdust nd other wood waste.
Thus we could utilize every portion of the tree. Even the
bark is being converted now into a very fine synthetic cork.
Douglas county has one outstanding advantage for the
companies that come in early. We have an assured lumber
production for many years and, if sustained yield policies
are continued, as we expect they will be, production is
assured indefinitely. Those
in the immediate future and
continued supply of raw materials will have a guarantee of
continued successful operation, insofar as resources are con
cerned.
Each new Industry which :omes into the county arouses
interest on the part of other concerns looking for locations.
Consequently the coming of the American Cross Arm com
pany means, perhaps, that some other manufacturing group
will be led to investigate Douglas county's possibilities.
Many firms are building plants today in localities where
timber resources are nearing the point of exhaustion, indi
cating little investigation into the availability of raw ma
terials in future years. For those who arc seeking long
time operation in an area where supply is assured for many
years to come, and probably perpetually, Douglas county
offers the outstanding opportunity.

White House Plea Planned
To Get Food Information
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3AP
-Rep. Daughton (D.-Va.) said
yesterday that unless the army
complies with his request to tell
how much food its has stock
piled, he will appeal to the White
House.
Asserting that "I think it is a
fair assumption we are over
stocked," Daughton said Gen.
Somervell, chief of army service
forces, had not responded to a
request of nearly three weeks
ago tor an Inventory of army
food storks.
(Army officials have said that
If their food reserves were re
turned to civilian channels the
amount would not be sufficient
to feed the nation for one week.)
The Virginian told the house
several weeks ago he believed
"hoarding" by the armed forces
w as la-vely responsible for civil
!n food shoftdijes.

Franco to Battle
Olsen in Mat Bill
Here Saturday
Young Franco, the Roseburg
youngster who made an impres
sive local wrestling debut here
some weeks ago in a match
against Paavo Katonen, will be
featured in the semi-final match
of Don Owen's weekly mat show
at the armory Saturday night.
On a short leave from Fort Lewis,
Franco will engage Milt Olsen.
Headline attraction will be a
Paci flc coast light-heavvweieht
championship bout in which Jack
Kiser will defend his coveted
crown against the challenge of
Katonen.
Douglas county eraoolln? fol
lowers await with interest Fran
co's second -, appearance here.
Against Katonen the Rosebure
lad was meeting one of the most
experienced men in the sport and
one who also held a weight ad
vantage. Franco, who has had
considerable experience in the
Hawaiian circuit as a soldier
wrestler, is given a good chance
against uisen, a former coast ti
tieholdcr. Regardless of the outcome,' the
semi-final is expected to be a
fast and interesting bout in which
modern matwork will be af Its
best. . -,. .
Finn May Regain Title
The Klser-Katonen champion
ship skirmish is expected to be a
rugged affair in which the Fin
nish matmaster will be getting
one of his infrequent opportuni
ties to regain the championship
he lost to Kiser more than a year
ago. Katonen won the right to
the championship engagement
here last Saturday night by
emerging the winner in a four
man elimination tourney.
Two specialized holds, Riser's
"skin the cat" and Katonen's
"hangman's hold", arc expected
to have considerable bearing on
the eventual outcome.
The swifter Kiser, who has the
advantage of youth and agility,
has been able to successfully de
fend his title on three previous
occasions against Katonen's chal
lenge, but the Finn points out
that he has lost but one decision
to Kiser in the title tilt. Katon
en will post a $100 forfeit to
guarantee that he makes the nec
essary weipht.
Elton Owen will referee both
matches. The first one will start
at 8:30.

Beavers Defeat
Stars as Rainiers
Nose Out Seals
(By the Associated Press)
Portland and Seattle, continu
ing their breakneck pace as they
neared the Pacific Coast league
three-quarter pole, are still sep
arated by six games after both
clubs won their third In a row
last night.
The loop-leading Beavers, main
tlnine their 1inx over the Hollv
wood Stars, breezed to an easy
9-3 victory, but the Rainiers had
to go 11 innings before they nosed
out tne san i- rancisco seals 4-3.
The battle for the other two
first division berths tightened as
the Oakland Acorns divided a
doubleheader with the San Diego
Padres, dropping the curtain
raiser 3-1 and taking the night
cap B-o. ine split moved tne
Oaks within half a game of the
fourth-berth Seals. Sacramento's
Solons remained two tilts ahead
of Sair Francisco after losing to
tne LjOs Angeles Angels 4-1.
Pulford Wins His 18th
"Righthander Pulford, ace of
the Portland pitching staff.
chalked up his 18th win of the
season against eight losses as he
let Hollywood down with eight
hits and three tallies. The Bevos
drove Marshall, the Stars' start
ing hurler, off the hill with a
six-run ouburst. The defeat was
Hollywood s 14th straight at the
hands of the Bcavors.
Seattle had to come from be
hind to shade the Seals 4-3. with
pinch-hitter Mathcson playing
the hero's role. He drove in the
tying run in the first of the ninth
with a sharp single, and then re
peated in the 11th to send Dob
bins scampering home with the
winning counter. Matheson did
not rejoin the Rainiers -until this
week, having been anchored in
a defense plant. Syl Johnson, who
relieved uemoran in tne ninth,
got credit for the victory.
