OPPOSES ELLSWORTH
China-Born Woman Out
To Defeat Congressman
Because Of UMT Vote
By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
SALEM w A young China-born daughter of mission
ary parents, Mrs. Barbara' S. Draper of Alban.Vj became
ansrered when Rep. Harris Ellsworth voted for Universal
Military Training.
So, making UMT the main issue of her campaign, she's
taking on the big job of trying to defeat Ellsworth for Re
publican nomination in Oregon's Fourth Congressional
District.
Mrs. Draper, who sings In a
Methodist church choir and teaches
a Sunday School class, has two
little boys, aged one and two.
Her husband, Jack A. Draper, Is
a building contractor, specializing
in building low-cost homes in
Lebanon, Albanv and Corvallis. He
has a couple of small planes, and
will take his wife campaigning in
them.
Mrs. Draper's campaign won't
get under full steam until about
a week before the May 16 primary,
and will consist of a quick air tour
through the district, which consists
of Southwest Oregon.
She thinks she has a chance of
Roseburg editor who has repre
sented the district since it was
created in 1943. Ellsworth never
has had much trouble winning, and
he is heavily favored this time to
win the nomination.
If Ellsworth gets by the primary,
he might run into trouble in the
fall because his district is now
the center of the nation's lumber
industry, with a big influx of
Democratic voters.
Husband Twice Defeated
Mrs. Draper said politics got in
her blood when her husband al
most was elected to the senate
six years ago. He was defeated by
only 78 votes by Sen. Angus Gib
son, Junction City, for the joint
Lane-Linn County seat.
. Draper made another try against
Gibson two years ago, but was
beaten by a much larger margin.
Draper now is his wife's campaign
manager, and he's running for the
state House of -Representatives,
too.
That will help her, as the Draper
name is pretty well known in Lane
and Linn Counties. Her parents
live in Medford, where she taught
school for a year, so Mrs. Draner
is counting on that for a few
votes. But outside of those three
counties, she is almost unknown.
Ellsworth hit the headlines re
cently by demanding President
Truman's Impeachment for his
seizure of the steel industry, and
because he suggested that he had
power to seize the newspapers
under similar circumstances.
Agrees On Soma Issues
Mrs. Draper doesn't agree with
the steel seizure either, assert
ing that "when the government
starts taking over industries, it is
tending toward Communism."
She also agrees with Ellsworth's
stand for lower taxes and reduc
tion in federal spending. She op
poses senuing an ambassador to
the Vatican.
Mrs. Draper accuses President
Truman of placing too much em-
the Rural Fire truck from Rose
burg arrived. Aside from water
damage, repairs to roof and the
upper structure only will be re-
quired.
DRUNK DRIVING CHARGED
State police today reported the
arrest over the weekend of Frank
Leroy Hogg Jr., 33, Idleyld Route,
on a charge of drunk driving. He
was scheduled for arraignment
in district court today.

phasis on Europe at the expense

"The President Is letting Asia
slip. The boys in Korea are for
gotten and don't have enough equip
ment. We either should do some
thing In Korea or pull out," she
said.
What to do about the Oregon
and California grant lands in the
Fourth District also is a hot issue.
Mrs. Draper wants the lands re
turned to the state of Oregon, with
all the revenue earmarked for
education.
Being a strong church woman,
she Is disturbed about liquor ad
vertising on national radio pro
grams. She supports federal legis
lation to restrict this advertising
so that drinking can not be made
attractive.
Ellsworth is not campaigning
much, pointing out that he is too
busy in Congress. In his campaign
statement, he said he is for econo
my and development of natural
resources, but didn't comment on
other issues.
He argued that because of his
10 years of service, he is in a
position of power, and should be
reelected because of the influence
he can wield.
But so far as Mrs. Draper is
concerned, there is one big issue
in the Fourth District Ellsworth
is for Universal Military Training,
and Mrs. Draper is against it.

The urgency of the situation does
not allow time for normal nego

detailed long term timber agree

Threat to timber in the North
west from bark beetles isv even
more serious than first believed
when the Bureau of Land Manage
ment, in January, announced its
full scale timber salvage program
to save recently damaged or killed
timber resulting from blowdowns,
beetle infestion and fire. A re
cent meeting of the Northwest
Forest Pest Control Committee
revealed that infestation of the
tree-killing beetle around blow

a rate that "inless immediate em

lion board feet of BLM timber
in western Oregon, valued at 10V4
million dollars.
Would Minimis Losses
Director Marion Clawson of the
Bureau of Land Management in
a report released January 30, urg
ed an immediate full scale pro
gram not only to save the lumber
for vital defense needs, but to pre
vent further losses of' the valu
able crop from beetle damage and
fires this coming summer. In his
report" he explained that Oregon
is not the only state with great
supplies of timber laid waste by
storms, fires, and insect kill. Al
though no figures are available
for California, areas administer
ed by the Bureau uf Land Man
agement in this state are known
to contain a large amount of sal
vagable timber. Clawson pointed
out that the 700,000,000 board feet
of timber proposed for salvage
into simpler terms, could mean
from the O 4 C lands, translated
70,000 homes or i equivalent lum
ber for other vital defense needs.
It was estimated in the January
report that potential total losses
from windthrown, beetle and fire
damaged timber may total some
one billion board feet. The tree
killing beetle loss could exceed
the fire damage of the past year
which was 200 million board feet.
Director Clawson in his report
stated that much of the loss from
beetle kill could be preventd If

To harvest the timber it is nec
essary to cross toth private as
well as federal lands. Use of short
term emergency permits as an
nounced today by the Bureau of
Land Management, will enable the
Government and private operat
ors to cooperate in getting the
timber harvested.
Conditions Set Forth
Bell said that granting of short
term emergency licenses for sal
vage purposes will be made un
der the following conditions: Sal
vage operations will be defined
as the removal of trees that are
subject to rapid deterioration be
cause they have been killed or
tural cause such as wind, fire,
injured by some catastrophic na
disease, or insect infestation, or
of such trees as are peculiarly
susceptible to insect Infestation.
A salvage operation may include
the removal of sound intermingled
or adjacent trees, provided that
where the removal of sound trees
is physically required by normal
logging practices, or is economi
cally necessary to take i minn
mum oracticable logging opera
tion, the volume of such sound
timber shall not exceed the vol
ume of the killed, injured, infest
ed, or Insect, susceptible timber.
An area may qualify as a sal
vage area if it is classified by
the Bureau of Entomology ana
Plant Quarantine as a danger
zone for Douglas-fir beetle, or by
the State Forestry Department,
or the Bureau of Land Manage
ment as an area requiring fire
