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.

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. We now must go down the j lie.

than four million sportsmen use

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

"Listen to this," I said to E. 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

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

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

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

City Parks' Improvements
During Three-Month Period
Told In Commission Report
Most noticable city park department improvements have been
made at Umpqua park, the quarterly park commission report sub
mitted by Percy Croft, chairman, states.
. A communtiy kitchen and out
door fireplace have been complet
ed providing adequate cooking fa
cilities for large groups. There are
four cooking places. 30x48 inches,
cast from grey cast iron. Hot water
coils are installed in all four cook
ing units, providing adequate hot
water for the two 30-gallon tanks.
There are two sinks and drain
boards. The complete unit has a
timber frame with a shingle roof.
Water has been piped from the
fairgrounds for the lawns in the
park area. Six of the old street
lights have been installed in the
park, and will be wired as time
permits. The roads around the
park area have been graded and
graveled and are ready for oiling.
A merry-go-round has been in
stalled in Eagles park. It was
built locally by Wolbert Welding
and Machine shop.
Laurelwood park is kept clean
and the grass cut. Improvements
are contemplated.
The North Jackson street lawn
is being watered and kept in good
condition.
Swim Pool Finances
The Swimming pool was put in
operation June 1. The income from
all sources has been over $1,000,
despite consideragle cool weather.
The amount of S442 had to be tak
en in during June to make up the
estimated income for the 1949-50
budget. The estimated "amount for
income in the budget for the year
was $3500. The estimated revenue
was over $4,058. '
The pool and buildings were re
painted throughout before being
opened for the sumer. there were
62 large shrubs secured and plant
ed on the grounds at no expense
to the city. A sprinkler systeim
is being installed just south of the
grandstand, and lawn wil be plant
ed sometime before the winter.
Thought has been given to land
scaping that area in front of the
area in feon of the pool property
pool property or along south Jack
son street this fall.
