Sullivan explained, "to se cure leases, if possible, on all lands showing promise of favorable oil structure. If we can secure these leases it will be possible to keep control of the exploration, assur ing mat it oe done in an orderly manner and by legitimate outfits, Furthermore it will be possible to 'farm out' leases to competing firms, thereby protecting the county against any firm capping a productive bole and postponing production. "If Douglas county land owners win cooperate with us we can mm. imize speculative operations and assure orderly progress in explo ration," smiuvan asserted. He pointed out that oil leases are standard in form: that the land owner is assured a royalty of one eighth of the prodution from his land. Oil Developers, inc., will use the standard lease form, thus pro tecting the land owner in every particular. A countywlde leasing program is to be started in the near future, Sullivan reports. The association is asking me cooperation ot at fected land owners in keeping the project under local control and management, he states. 'Voice Of Democracy" Contest Winners Named Frank West.

MILL KSi Vets Bonus Bonds Buy With State's Funds To Be Asked SALEM UP) The state bond commission will ask the state re tirement board and the state In dustrial accident commission to buy bonds to pay Oregon's veter ans' vonus. That was decided here at a meet ing of the bond commission. Representatives of veterans or ganizations urged the bond com mission to try to sell the veter ans bonds to state agencies. The retirement board and accident commission are the only two agen cies with enough trust funds avail able. Both in the past have indi cated they preferred to keep their present investment. The suggestion was made that these two agencies buy a small portion of the $40,000,000 bond is sue and with this money get bonus payments underway. Private buyers have refused to bid on the bonds since a regional federal credit restraint committee ruled that the bonus would be in lationary. Members of the state bond com mission are Gov. Douglas McKay, State Treasurer Walter J. Pearson snd L.O. Arens, a member of the accident commission. John W. Jones, Portland, spokes man for the veterans advisory board, said "if you will issue the bonds and let the veterans organ izations be your salesmen, we'll sell every one of them." Jones said a lot of them could be sold in the south, "where they still believe in states rights."
