Timber Movie
Shown At Meet
Of Kiwanis Club
"Green Harvest," a motion pic
ture produced by Weyerhaeuser
Timber Company and depicting
timber as a crop, was shown as
the program featuie of Tuesday's
Kiwanis Club meeting.
The picture was shown by Bob
Straub, safety engineer for the
Company, accompanied by fores
ter Les Caulder, who, spoke brief
ly on the part the timber Com
pany is plaving in reforestation.
He stated further that the Com
pany is investing large sums of
money in developing timber re
sources In Douglas County.
They were introduced by
Representativa Paul Geddes, who
jokingly stated his only objection
to Weyerhaeuser was that the
Company was taking its logs to
Springfield to be processed. He
stated he attempted in vain to get
the Weyerhaeuser lobbyist at Sa
lem to place a plant in this
County.
The picture showed the enemies
of forests, including fires, insects,
rust and natural death from old
age. It further pointed out the
method of selective cutting, har
vesting procedure to assure re
growth in forested lands, and the
operation of tree farms. These fac
tors were presented to point out
that timber is a crop to be pro
duced and harvested, rather than
to be cut out and the timber lands
left barren.
Stronger Type
Of Jet Fighter
Is Developed
BURBANK, Calif., May 18. UP)
Details of a long-range, heavy
weight jet fighter, designed to
fly and fight deep in enemy terri
tory, were announced today by
the U. S. Air Force and Lockheed
Aircraft '"orp.
The needle-nosed craft, desig
nated the F-90, made its first taxi
runs at 90 miles an hour Tuesday
on the 6,000-foot Lockheed run
way. The plane will be shipped later
to the Air Force test base at
Muroc, Calif., for the first test
flight.
Designed to seek out air or
ground targets behind enemy
lines, the F-90 will rely on speed
and maneuverability to avoid
trouble.
It is a heavily armored, single
seat fighter with twin jet en
gines. It is almost as heavy as
the DC-3, a familiar two-engine
airplane transport.
The F-90's armament and per
formance characteristics are se
cret. The ship will be tested for
a year at Muroc by Lockheed and
Air Force pilots before being
turned over to the Air Force.

At the lower left stands Martin Sulcsdorf, long-time resident
of Winston, who is associated with his father, A. F. Sulcsdorf,

110 acres have been platted into lots furnishing sites for over
100 houses.
A truck, driven by Richard Phillippe, independent hauler, is
dumping rock on a portion of an extensive road system in the
Suksdorf tract. John Key, following in a big grader, spreads it
evenly. (Pictures by Paul Jenkins).
Earlier Payment Of Taxes
By Corporations Proposed
To Balance Federal Books
Ring-Tailed Cat Halts
Power At Utility Plant
BOULDER CITY, May 17. UP)
Found: one ring-tailed cat, de
ceased. Thereby, said Reclamation Bu
reau officials Monday hangs the
tale of what happened Sunday to
the world's largest power plant,
on the Colorado River at the base
of Hoover Dam.
The cat, proving again that old
adage, curiosity, etc., climbed atop
a transformer bank and short
circuited 16,500 volts.
It will take a week to repair the
damage, officials said. Las Vegas,
Boulder, much of Clark County,
Lincoln County and Kingman,
Ariz., were without power for an
hour.
By FRANCIS M. LE MAY
WASHINGTON, May 18 UP)
Painless" $5,000,000,000 boost in
the government revenues that
would balance its books for the
new fiscal year, was proposed
Tuesday by Rep. Mills (D.-Ark.).
It would require corporations to
pay all their 1949 taxes six months
earner tnan usual.
After consultation with Secre
tary of the Treasury Snyder,
Mills announced he is whipping
his proposal into legislation that
wouia nave tnis ettect:
1. Erase the prospect of any
new taxes or any increases in tax
rates. It would shelve the $4,
000,000,000 general increase in
taxes President Truman has re
quested. It would have no effect
whatever on individual income
taxes.
2. Turn a prospective $3,000,000,
000 federal deficit into a $1,700,
000,000 surplus in fiscal 1950 (the
year beginning next July 1), for
retirement of a part of the $251,.
00,000,000 federal debt.
But this bookkeeping method of
budget-balancing would i not in
crease the long run total of taxes
to be collected by the govern
ment. It would pile Into a six
months period the collections of
corporation taxes now due over a
12 months period.
Mills, who prepared his bill for
Suspended Sentence
Given Bank Embezzler
PORTLAND, May 18. IP) A
three-year suspended sentence has
been given Milton R. Peterson,
33, Cottage Grove, on a federal
charge of embezzling $810 from
the First National Bank at Cot
tage Grove.
He was placed on probation
for the period by U. S. District
Judge McColloch.
The government charged Peter
son, a bank employee, failed to
enter deposits to the bank's
credit.
Full restitution has been made.

presentation in the House today,
said it would work like this:
Require corporations working
on a calendar year basis, and also
estates, trusts and non-reside.nt
aliens, to pay all their 1949 fed
eral taxes before July 1, 1950 in
two installments. Present law
gives these taxpayers 12 months
until- December, 1950 to com
plete payment of the 1949 taxes
in four installments. Mills' bill
would shorten this 12 months de
ferred payment period to six
months.
Thus, approximately $4,800,-
000. 000 that would be collected
from corporations between July
1, 1950, and December 31, 1950,
would be brought into the treas
ury by June 30, 1950 increasing
by that amount the tax collections
within the July 1, 1949-July 1,
1950, federal fiscal bookkeeping
year, in which congressional ex
perts now are predicting a $3,
000,000,000 deficit.
