WILDLIFE By CHARLES A plan to require a special Meant to hunt, fiih or trap on national forest lands is under considtration. The proposal, ex pected to go before Congress, would call tor a National Forest Wildlife stamp costing $1.00 to be sold at all post offices, like duck stamps are now sold. The stamp would be attached to state hunting, angling or trapping licenses. Stamps would be sold only in states in which national forests are located. Pro ceeds would be distributed on a formula based en national forest acreage and the ratio of national forest lands to total area Money would be used for habitat improvement for fish end wild life, recreational improvements, range and timber management related to wildlife and recreation. The proposal is expected to arouse considerable controversy, but has many supporters among conservationists. , Proponents point out that Congress has not seen fit to ap propriate adequate sums for wildlife management on nationa forest areas. Yet much of the country is largely dependent up on the public dqmain for its recreation. It is estimated that more national forests annually for recreation and that the small cost of a wildlife stamp would merely be a contribution toward per petuation of their sport. Umpqua Forest Would Benefit Should the National Forest Wildlife stamp proposal be adopted, the Umpqua National forest probably would rank high in benefits. Almost one-half of western Oregon's land area is within national forests. The Umpqua forest is the largest of the 13 national forest units in Oregon. On a basis of acreage and ratio to total area the Umpqua forest would receive a substan tial proportion of money allotted to the state. Money for wildlife managament on the Umpqua forest could be used most advantageously. Timber removal operations are improving habitat for deer end other game animals by creating openings where browse is plentiful. Plantings of various types of browse are needed. These same operations, because of siltation are detrimental to fish life end much money is needed to properly manage watersheds to reduce fish losses. Angling pressure on the Umpqua river and tributary streams Is increasing rapidly. The Oregon Came commission is spending a large sum of money annually in an effort to preserve fish pop ulation and could do a much better job if federal aid funds were available. Congress Chat HARRIS, ELLSWORTH, M. C 4th District, Oregon Military action in Korea has blanked out almost all other top ics of conversation here cince the sudden move of the . Communists (hacked by Russia). Shortly after the new broke a p re-occupied House of Representatives passed the extension of Selective Service for another year with only four dissenting voles. The tax bill also was passed by an overwhelming majority. If the military situation becomes more serious, the Senate may pigeon-hole the tax bill which calls for repeal or reduction of numerous war excise taxes. The trouble in Korea is a mess of our own making. The fact that the United Nations organization en dorsed our errors docs not lessen our responsibility. He. e, very briefly to, Is the Kor story: Until liberated hy the de feat of Japan in World War II, the ean story: Until liberated by the the Koreans had suffcrd 40 years o( Japanese oppression. In the Cairn Conference in 194.1, it was agreed between the United States, Great Britain and China that Korea should be reestablished as a free and independent country. This agreement was approved by Rus sia in the rotsriam declaration of July 1945. That agreement has never been altered or questioned it has simply been violated by Rus sia at every turn of events. We have only feebly protested t h e . various Russian moves. For convenience on V-J Day, an imaginary line was drawn on the map of Korea at the 38th parallel. North of that line the Russians took the surrender of the Japanese South of that line the Japs sur rendered to our forces. That was how and why the line was drawn. It was never a division of the country which was by agreement to be liberated and have its in dependence. But the Russians oc cupied the northern section and called it their, "lone." They re fused to cooperate in any way to ward unifying Korea. The s 1 t- uation became almost an exact duplicate of (he situation in Ger many which was also set up at Potsdam. Instead of our insisting that the original intent of the his powers regarding Korea he carried out. we crawled away from our accepted responsibility. We set about to form a separate country of t h e southern half of the country. The Republic of Korea (the territory south of the 38th parallel) was for mally formed December 12, 1948. It was recognised by our govern ment un .mnuary j aim snoruv i thereafter by most of the United ! Nations members. Meanwhile, the Russian government had ordered the iron curtain dropped at the 38th parallel. If the surprise move hy force is successful in Korea I think we may expect a similar operation in Germany. It may be that the Korea affair is a rehear sal and a trial halloom to test nur attitude and our slrr-nr-th. Hegardless of how it got that erainrs, lanor, agriculture, recrea way, we face a very ,qi ions sit-1 t'onal groups, and the general pub uation.

STANTON than four million sportsmen use clean when we were strong and the Russians wove weak. One thing about our new Asiatic policy troubles me. I think we are making another grave error. On the Korean peninsula it is our policy to help drive the Communist government troops back and re gain territory they have taken by force. But, at the same time we are sending the United States Sev enth Fleet to Formosa to prevent the Chinese Nationalist govern ment from fighting to regain ter ritory taken by the Communists by force. "The Seventh Fleet will see that this is done," says Presi dent Truman. It seems to me the people of Asia are going to be com pletely bewildered hy this contra dictory action on our part. O. & C.

J., who was spending a little time with the Duke of Windsor in Life magazine. I was browsing in an old American Journal, 1849, and was astounded by an account by a well-known scientist of the day, giving names, dates and places, where he had witnessed a man pass his hand through molten metal, "... only to have no fear, to make the experiement with confi dence, to pass the hand rapidly, but not too rapidly, In the metal in full fusion. Otherwise, if the ex periement is performed with fear, or with too great rapidity, the re pulsive force which exists in in candescent bodies might be over come, and thus the contact with the skin affected ..." "Nothing to that," said E. J. calmly. - Done something like it myself. Not metal, but boiling candy syrup. Had a job in a candy factory one summer when I was a kid." He chuckled. "That was Ihe place where a smart-alec lit a giant cannon fir-cracker in the room where the girls were working.

A 19-member New Jersey "coop erative" nas isolated i s 17-acre farm from the rest of the United Slates and established what it de scribed as Ihe first "world citizens community." The group, situated hich in the Hunterdon hills some 50 miles west of New York city, said it was "re nouncing nationalistic ties" and be gan by going on a two-week hun ger strike to protest the fighting in Korea. Initiative Plan Aimed At Pictures In Liquor Ads PORTLAND, (.ft I.iquar ad vertisements would be limited t o words only, under a measure that sponsors say will be on the Nov ember election ballot. George Brown, campaign man ager for the initiative proposal, said more than the required 25,000 signatures to place it before the voters in November had been ob tained. Chinook Minnows Freed In SEATTLE, .f The Univer sity of Washington school of fish eries is going to take a look into the roaming habits of salmon. Dr. Lauren R. Donaldson, pro fessor of fisheries, said the oro- ject started recently when 42.525 Chinook salmon were released from rearing ponds on the Washington campus. The wriggling mass of fish, each 2'i to Vt inches long, headed out into Lake Union, down through the Ballard locks, out into P u g e t sound and out to sea. Donaldson said if calculations are correct the first batch of the "College-bred" fish will return at the end of their eveje some time in the fall of 1952. The largest number, which will then weigh shout 20 pounds, should return in 195.1, but some of the (ish. mostly (rmales then weigh ing between 30 and 40 pounds, will meeting. Interested lumber and logging operators in the Roseburg district are invited to attend this portion of the meeting.

"Well, you have a pan of water in one hand, dip your fingers into it, shake them around in it so they're covered with water, then dip them into the boiling syrup. Like this." E..J. dipped two fingers into an imaginary pan of water, then scooped them a bit slowly, it seemed to me, through the huge copper kettle of syrup. "If the syrup rolls on your fingers when you dip your fingers into the water nl's not done. It has to be crun chy." "Mercy!

Included in t h e "cooperative" are 13 adults and six children, all of them under 35 years of age. For Ihe purposes of Ihe hunger strike, five of the group were des ignated as "best able'' to carry on the fast. But Glen Gardner tax collector Edson R. Waters wasn't impres sed. As long as any establishment remains within his community's boundaries, he said, they'll have to pay local taxes. The measure would prohibit sale by the state liquor control com mission of brands advertised in local or national publications with pictures or any other thing except words. The Oregon Council of Churches, Ihe Women's Christian Temper ance league and other temperance groups are backing the measure, Brown said.

State Dept. Rapt Charge Of 'Potato Bug Bombing' WASHINGTON, July 7 (.It Russia's charge of an American "potato hug bombing" of eastern Kurope was denounced by the State Department Thursday as s "fantastic fabrication." A statement declared the Rus sians borrowed from German Nati tactics the idea, of ascribing an insect invasion to the dropping of bugs from American airplanes. Russia and its European satel lites have long been facing a ser ious potato shortage and therefore Russia resorted to a w e 1 1 know n device and invented a "saboteur" the department charged. Phil Reliefer Jim Constanty Saves Another By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer The Phillies' rookie pitcher. Bob Miller, with an 8-0 record, needed help from Jim Konstanty again Thursday to preserve his num ber 8, a 9-6 win over New York. The sensational freshman was knocked out in the seventh. So, in came the Joe Page of 1950, Kon stanty, to save the day. The rookie now is within shout ing distance of the record for first year pitchers, shared by Atley Don ald of the Yanks in 1939 and Hooks Wiltse of the Giants in 1904. Each won 12 in a row. Willie Jones hit his 16th homer. Andy Seminich his seventh and Granny Hamner his fifth as tho Phils hung a loss on Sheldon Jon es. Bobby Thomson homered for the Giants, No. 11. St. Louis protected its one game lead in the National by knocking out Ewell Blackwell in a 10-run first inning to crush Cincinnati, 13-1. It was the Card's seventh straight and their 12th in a .row as Sportsman's Park. H In One Inning Sixteen cards went to the elate i in the big inning in which Bill i Howertin doubled twice, driving in three runs. There wasn't a homer in the Kame but T ciavimo I I l:.- nan luur nns. Al Brazle had little to do but get the ball over after the first. He allowed seven hits in his first complete game. Brooklyn clouted Warren Spahn and Vern Bickford, making his first relief appearance of the year, for a total of 16 hits in an 8-3 night win over Boston. Homers by Eddie Miksis and Gil Hodges, each with a man on, showed the way. Preacher Roe, who asked for the assignment with only two days rest in order to have four before thp all-star game, earned his 10th vic tory with a seven-hitter. Two of the hits were homers by Del Cran d.nll and Bob Elliott. Robinson Misses Tilt Jackie Robinson missed his first game since June 2, 1948, breaking a string of 340 consecutive games. Hobbled by a knee injury, Jackie was available for pinch-hitting duty but wasn't needed. Chicago kicked up a fuss in the eighth to score three runs, knock out Bill Werle and whip Pittsburgh, 4-2. The previous Cub run was Hank Sauers 16th homer. Andy Pafko drove home the typing and winning runs with a single after Murry Dickson replaced Werle. Paul Minner went all the way with a five-hitter, his best job of the year.
