PROGRAM
Douglas County's recreational program won high com
mendation from Governor Douglas McKay at a meeting of
the State Natural Resources Committee in Salem last week.
In fact, the discussion of the county's program consumed
a major part of the meeting, according to reports.
John Amacher, chairman of the Douglas County Parks
Board, and Charles S. Collins, supervisor, attended the meet
ing and were called upon for a report. Governor McKay
reportedly expressed amazement at the extent of accomplish-
merits In view of the small sum expended and urged the ex
' tension of the program into other counties. He labeled it
; "one of the most outstanding accomplishments in the state."
. Heads of various state departments also exhibited much
' Interest. They were particularly pleased with the policies
; of the Parks Department in endeavoring to preserve recrea-
i tional facilities, access to
; grounds ahead of population
An outgrowth of the meeting, in which the county's ac
tivlty held the spotlight, possibly will be a greater measure
of cooneration in furnishing
long-range planning. The Parks Department is hopeful of
, obtaining technical assistance, particularly in developing
' camnsites and rjicnic grounds along the North Umpqua. A
master recreational plan is
and federal agencies. When the plan is finally adopted it
will need a considerable amount of engineering, much of
which would be available from the state.
Winchester Bay Featured
Interest was shown at the committee meeting in the
unique situation at Winchester Bay, the mouth of the Ump
qua River. r
. The state's best sports fishery has developed there with
in the past four years, since'the river was closed to com
mercial netting of game fish.' Attracting more than 20,000
anglers last year, the fishery is estimated to produce more
than $2,000,000. income annually, although little money has
been expended in developing potentials,
i A long-range plan now is being formulated. , A firm of
.consulting engineers has been employed to work out an im-
'provement project which can be handled in units.
i The first and most essential unit is a breakwater, rough
ly paralleling the river channel, to halt the movement of
sand into the bay. .' Since the new jetty was built for the
. purpose of deepening the bar, surges are cutting away the
Winchester Bay shoreline while, at the same time, driving
.sand Into the bay, and building up tidelands.
A breakwater is projected to halt the washing action
and to preserve the boat basin. , This breakwater, about
8,000 feet In length, would be 40 feet wide on top, and would
provide parking space for several hundred cars. It Is be
lieved that action of the water, following construction of the
breakwater, would result In a fill between the outer side of
the barrier and the main river channel, eventually leading
to deposits creating a 30 to 50-acre sand beach.
Money Problem Studied
Simultaneously with the construction of the breakwater,
there would be built parking areas at the south end of the
bay, offering combine! parking facilities for more than 2,000
vehicles. Recreational activities then would be moved to the
south bay and along the inner side of the breakwater.
" Sponsors are hopeful that the commercial requirements
then will be taken over by the
, ing sports basin would be deepened and would be used to
harbor the outside fishing fleet, Including tuna boats. In
dredging out the mooring area and turning basin, materials
; would be wasted along the existing shoreline, building up
approximately 27 acres of recreational area.
Tho entire program Is estimated to cost approximately
; $400,000. The first unit the
areas and a bridge across Winchester Creek will cost in
the neighborhood of $135,000. Sponsors are asking that Doug
las County and the Port of Umpqua assume the cost of the
, first unit. , A schedule of charges for parking, boat launch
ing, charter trips, etc., would be worked out, whereby the
sum invested would be paid back from income over a period
of about 10 years.'
The amount Invested by the County and Port District
, would be credited as contributor participation in the event
the Army Engineers approved their suggested part in the
program, and no further expenditures in any large amount
would be required from local sources.
The county budget committee will be asked for the
; amount needed to match the Port District in construction of
v the first unit,
Douglas County has started a recreational program of
which it may well be proud a program that has won high
commendation. It has opportunity to develop at Winchester
Bay one of the Pacific Coast's most sensational sports fish
eries. While the initial cost may seem large, it eventually
j will be recovered." Evn though no income resulted from
' fees, increase in property valuations at Winchester Bay
: through improvement of recreational facilities, soon would,
through taxes, reimburse the county for its investment. It
' is an opportunity that should not be permitted to escape.

terrific. Pressure of that sort Isn't

Getting back to Harriman, I'm
a bit fed up with these second and
third generation rich who go into
politics in a big way. The trouble
with them is that they never had
to make a business pay, or go
broke and sleep in the street.

to make it themselves, they fall
naturally into the delusion that

WHAT ABOUT RAYON
Aside from having lower tensile strength than other
fabrics, rayon presents no special problems cleaning-wise.
There are, however, several exceptions to this statement.
In the first place, there's a lot of difference between
Rayon and Regenerated Rayon, Regenerated Rayon is a
fabric made of old rayon. In other words, it has undergone
a second manufacturing process. Since rayon is originally
made from cellulose treated chemically, this second dis
solving process results in the production of a weaker fila
ment. Result is a strictly unserviceable fabric. We would
like to recommend to you NEVER BUY ANY GARMENT
WHICH CONTAINS REGENERATED RAYON. However,
this is practically impossible since many materials and
fabrics contain threads of regenerated rayon.
So it seems sensible to suggest two things.
1. Never smear nail polish, or spill alcohol or other
solvents on rayon. They affect the fibers of the fabric,
and sometimes cause it to fuse.
2. Always ask your merchant whether the rayon in
question contains regenerated rayon. If he cannot assure
you, why not buy a garment which will bemore service
able, and therefore, wear longer with less trouble? Further
than that, demand adequate guarantees from the mer
chant from whom you buy either a rayon garment or rayon
yardage that it will withstand all of the ordinary cleaning
procedures.

WASHINGTON -1 am astounded at the silence of
the Baltimore bugle, Owen Lattimore, who hasn't opened
his mouth since former Ambassador William C. Bullitt
made a clown of him in' testimony before the McCarran
Internal Security Subcommittee of the Senate.
day alma Pick Up 2-col Lead
Lattimore is getting more and
more like the State Department's
ambassador at larse. Philin r
Jessup. Both of them used to pon
tificate at every opportunity, and
without even being asked, about
what this country thca'd do in
Asia. If anyone ever criticized
their fuzzy yammering, a resound
ing reply in double talk alwavs
followed instantaneously. Now,
however, both are retiring behind
long lapses ot silence. And I think
I know the reason why.
Bullitt was our ambassador in
Moscow, you remember, when the
Baltimore Bule and assorted
Communists from this country
were licking Kremlin boots while
figuring out a way to sell Asia
down the river of Soviet domina
tion. One of the favorite methods of
camouflaging the cooperation of
U. S. Reds with the Kremlin was
via the Institute of Pacific Rela
tions. Senator Pat McCarran's
subcommittee, with Chief Counsel
Robert Morris in charge of the
dissection, has just completed show
lag up the IPR for what it really
was a goofy collection of alleged
scholars controlled by Commu
nists, near-Communists and as
sorted other Kremlin stooges. Lat
timore and Jessup were high mo
guls in this international rat trap.
When the Bugle blew into Mos
cow in 1936, he had a chat with
Bullitt. . The ex-ambassador is
made of .somewhat different fi
ber from a lot of other former
and present State Department of
ficials. He had Heard tne same
sound the Baltimore Bugle was
blowing, many times before and
it was right out of a Kremlin
window. ,
Lattimore wanted to overlook
the execution of some three or
four hundred loyal Chinese in out
er Mongolia by the Russian secret
police. He wanted the United
States to recognize that territory's
-'independence-- irom unina, to
give it diplomatic recognition as
a free state entitled to member
ship in the League of Nations.
Bullitt says he told Lattimore
that the Russians ran Outer Mon
golia, and that if Lattimore thought
otherwise he was either ignorant
or "deliberately attempting to as
sist in the spreak of Communist
authority throughout Asia."
There is more to the story which
somehow failed to get in the regu
lar press accounts of Bullitt's
testimony. Bullitt tangled with the
Baltimore Bugle once more. It
was on a radio program in 1948,
when the Chinese Nationalist
troops were begging for U.S. equip
ment because the Chinese Reds,
under Russian direction and with
supplies from the Russians, had
Chiang Kai-shek's troops set up
for the kill. We had helped create
the situation by refusing to give
arms to the Nationalists.
Lattimore drummed up some
smart talk about how the Chinese
Communist troops in Manchuria
were equipping themselves with
American arms abandoned b y
cowardly Nationalist troops. This
went over the air waves to sev
eral million Americans who are
sympathetic to the Chinese but
deplore cowardice wherever they
find it.
Lattimore was spewing siraigui

Communist propaganda when he
made his remark. Bullitt pointed
out that no Chinese Communist
troops were in Manchuria at the
time and later, when they did get
there, they- were sent in by the
Russians, who had equipped them
with captured Japanese arms and
ammunition. .
I am less charitable' towards
the Baltimore Bugle- than Bullitt
was. He testified that he had told
Lattimore on the radio: : ....
"You are the head of a school
have no right to evade an an
swer to your extraordinary state
ment." Bullitt then went oh' "I
am led to conclude that Mr. Lat
timore is. once more behaving
eiter as a man who was inter
ested in promoting the conquest
of the Far East by the Commu
nists, or, as I said before, that
he was simply a charlatan who
knew nothing about the subjects
on which he took positions and that
he had no business to be at the
head of a school on international
relations of a distinguished uni
versity." Lattimore was, and is, head of
the Walter Hines Page School of
International Relations of Johns
Hopkins University in Baltimore,
and he still is required White
House and State Department read

Bullitt's disgust was . monu
mental after a few years of deal
ing with people like the Balti

and the boys stayed around, how
ever, and look where China is
today.
