YMCA To Outline
Enrollment Plans
YMCA team captains will meet
next Monday in the Y offices of
the Armory to lay plans for the
annual enrollment week drive, it
has been reported 'by Jack West,
president of the Roseburg Y.
The memnersnip anve win run
from Feb 1 to 10, with three
ways offered for people to par
ticipate as members at large,
members at work, or member par
ticipants.
Harry Hill will neaa tne anve.
West said. The amount needed
this veor will he larger than in
the past because of the low total
achieved by the United Fund.
However, not all of the YMCA's
operating expenses arc derived
from the United Fund. An agree
ment was mane witn tne ur mat
the Y could conduct its own mem
bership drive, as in past years.
Division leaders ot tne anve are
Everett Wimer and Ira Byrd.
Each division will have five can
tains and each captain will recruit
five workers. There will be six
teams of men and four teams of
women assisting in the drive.
. West pointed out that the YMCA
hopes to expand its work, rather
than curtail it. H is hoped the
summer dav camp program for
boys and girls can he enlarged,
as well as improving the summer
encampment for hoys. Selection of
a Roseburg YMCA camp site in
the lakes area near the ocean is
being considered at the present
time.

Future Of Oregon Mines
Leans On Tariff Protection
(Continued from Page One)
McKav. who heads a cabinet
committee appointed by the Pres
ident to work out a mining policy,
is sympathetic to western cries
for added protection. Others in the
administration are cognizant of
the affect on allies whose econo
mies depend in some part on over
seas markets for ores.
Other big issues vital to the
state include possible freedom
from wardship for the Klamath
Indians. Congress last year direct
ed the Bureau of Indian Affairs
to be ready this month with spe
cific recommendations tor eman
cipating a number of western
tribes deemed reaov ior complete
assimilation into society. Bills are
now ready to serve that purpose,
among them a measure which
would permit the Klamath tribe to
establish a corporation which
would take over from federal trus
teeshio the assets of the tribe.
Action on this legislation may
make it the forerunner of Secre
tary McKay's program to inte
grate lone isolated tribes into
white man's culture.
Of principal concern to the salm
fishing industry is a report from
the Corps of Engineers to Con
eress which is reliably reported
to contain a recommendation that
the Salmon River in Idaho be
kept free of all dams and that all
projects below the mouth of that
river on tne anaKe una miuniuiu
rivers be no higher than 100 feet.
ThmiL'ht behind this -"commen
dation is that hazards forjnigra
torv salmon would thereby be re
duced by reserving a channel from
the Salmon River spawning
grounds to the sea, concentrating
on other tributaries of the Colum
bia River system for major hy
droelectric projects.
In the reclamation field, new pol
icies affecting federal vs. local
control of reclamation projects
may emerge from negotiations
now underway between the Interi
or Department and the state of
California for the possible sale to
California of the huge Central Val
ley project which stretches south
ward from Shasta Dam.
Of all Hie irrigation works in
the West financed by federal funds.
none has ever heen transtereo to
local ownership. The outcome of
the CVP deal may set a precedent
for transfer of other projects to
states or even lesser agencies.
