Stanton 'the Douglas County Taxpayers League has scheduled a meeting Saturday afternoon to discuss the proposed road connection between the Nonpareil road, east of Sutherlin. and the North Umpqua Highway. It is reported that some members of the league feel that construction of the road is not essential and is a waste of money. The claim is advanced that logging trucks will use the paved North Umpqua road, travelling a greater distance, rather than haul loads over a gravelled county road with adverse grades. Kegardless of opinions concerning future use of the road, the fact remains that Sutherlin was promised a con nection. Failure to build tho connecting road would be a breach of faith, Tho matter started several years ago when Sutherlin interests began urging a short route between biitherlin and the North Umpqua. A heated controversy arose. .Sutherlin advocates were firm in their demand that the "short route" be built from the Nonpareil road by way of Classy Creek Rnd trench Branch to Lone Kock. There also was demand for a road along the north side of the Umpqua River between Wilbur and Lone Rock to serve both the timber and agricultural industries, it was the opinion of the county court that the Wilbur road should have first priority. , Study Agreement Reached The Sutherlin group, after much protest and bickering, agreed to go along with the plan for the Wilbur road with the understanding that a connecting road would be built, it was agreed that engineering studies should be made to ascertain if a better location could be found than the pro posed tiassy Creek French Branch route. Promised that a connection would be built following engineering studies, the Sutherlin people awaited a deci sion. At first, an alternate route was proposed by way of Cooper Creek directly into Sutherlin. The Cooper Creek road would have hit the Umpqua only a few miles east of Wilbur. It would have been of no service to those peop!e living east of Sutherlin on the Nonpareil road. Nor would it have materially shortened the truck haul to Sutherlin. The county court recently has favored a road which would leave the North Umpqua at the Jackson place, the former Charles and May Beckley ranch, a short distance cast of Whistler's Bend, and would have connected with the Bonanza Mine road, which leaves the Nonpareil road about six miles east of Sutherlin. This road, it is believed, could be built on fair alignment and with adverse and fa vorable grades of around six to eight per cent. The Sutherlin group, still holding to a general "short route" location, now is asking for a survey along Bradley creek, claiming a better adverse grade and a site serving more of the Nonpareil residents. Pert Politics Involved There is reason to believe some petty politics enter into the road controversy. Some Roseburg interests don't want the competition a route from Sutherlin would furnish, it is quite possible, and even probable, that a connection eventually would be made a part of Highway 225 and would cause traffic on that route to bypass Roseburg. Mills in the immediate vi cinity of Roseburg now have a competitive advantage in hauling logs from the North Umpqua area, where the bulk of the timber lies and, naturally, desire to preserve that advantage. On the other hand, many people living in Sutherlin and eastward on the Nonpareil road work in timber shows on W 1 rvsJBFX Tit-Minimum Eisenhower Favors Flying Of Foreign Planes Oyer U.S. On Privilege Exchange Basis Bv DOUGLAS CORNEL WASHINGTON i' President Eisenhower said Wednes day he believes he would allow peaceful foreign planes to fly over any area of the United States to carry out his Geneva proposal for exchange of military blueprints and aerial insertion. In The Day's News (Continued from Page Qne) The Kisenhower proposal was made at the Geneva summit meet ing, contingent on agreement by Russia to allow the same inspec tion and provide the same full in formation this country would give. The President, at his news con ference, again stressed gains at Geneva but minimized the hope of any new era of peace right now. At the outset, Eisenhower said he thought it was needless to lake much time in attempting to emph chango Commission has given the entire story of the role played by Sherman Adams, No. 1 aide to Eisenhower.

Eisenhower said he wouldn't want to give complete details of what he has in mind without con sulting professionals and techni cians. But he said the blueprint, the layout of military establish ments he has proposed to ex change, should he complete. He said that does not necessarily in clude manufacturing and produc tion plants. Nevertheless, he said, he would place a minimum of prohibition on areas to be inspected. He said he thought he would allow peace ful planes to fly over any particu lar area they wished.

An appropriation for Dixon-Yates was up in Congress at the time. Rtservt Bill Dissatisfies RESERVES - To a question whether he is satisfied with the air by means of colonies of bac-. leria that live in small growths, called nodules, on the roots of le guminous plants. These bacteria change ATMOSPHERIC nitrogen into compounds called nitrates, which arc essential to the growth of plants. The legume (in this case peas) takes some of the nitrates for its own use and adds what is left to the soil, enriching it for the grow ing of other crops. Thus, you see, pea-growing be came a natural for the Pendleton country. It has worked out so well that now peas account for about nine million dollars of the averaue annual crop value of 27 million dol lars in the area. Peas tie in nicely with the Pendleton economy which is a machine economy. They are plant ed with machines. They are har vested with machines. They are shelled by machinery. Alter the succulent peas are re moved, the vines are fed to live stock. At first they were fed in the raw form, like straw. Now for the most part they are being chopped up. They have all the nu trients of the leeume family, such i as clover and vetch. C.

It seems to me there is good reason -to study the most feasible and economic site for a connection road. ' Hut, in my opinion, there should be no argument over building such a road. Sutherlin was promised a connection. The matter of competition and advantage between communities should not be pepmitted to influence a project beneficial to the county as a whole. The county court, I believe, is follow ing the proper course in making investigation of every possible route for the road, for the purpose of giving to the Sutherlin community the one that will best serve the needs of the people and industries of the Sutherlin and Calapooia areas, within limits of economic, construction. Hut. in my opinion, the road should be built as quickly as determination can be made of the various factors in volved. The road was promised, and a promise should be kept. Subjects Noted He touched on a number of other subjects, including: tioned one item, a differential in pay. but said he would have to study the bill. ZirUKOV The President said his personal meetings with his old friend, Soviet Defense Minister Georgi Zhukov, at Geneva emph asized the new concept of Soviet collective leadership.

Then came the freezing pro cess, which is growing rapidly in importance. In the Pendleton-Walla Walla area there are some eight or 10 pea canneries. (Many, if not most, of these pea canner ies are now being adapted to the freezing process.) At the beginning, the labor in the canneries was purely local. The industry is growing now to the point where transient labor is needed from outside sources. (The canneries are operated only dur ing the pea season, not yet having raw material of a variety suffici ent to keep them going the year around.) Most of the transient outside la borers are Mexicans.

Rose burg Chamber of Commerce sug gested poultry and egg production for the smaller acreages of Doug las County. 1 do not question the committee's sincerity and interest in the community but how they could be so ill informed is be yond me. The only possible way to get into the chicken business is to "squeeze" someone else out. There are many empty chicken houses in the county marking the graves of poultry failures. Small farmers are "going broke" at the rate of almost one million a year since 1950 over four million small farmers have been forced out of business and a good many economists predict the comolete elimination of the small family type farm. Illogical statements, like the one made by the com mittee, do a disservice to the newcomer and the uninformed, as well as to the present poultry pro ducers who are struggling to make a living. Last year saw many failures in the chicken business, and at the present time I know several who are on the verge of "calling it quits," including myself. The prob lem of farming is relatively sim plewe are just producing too much of everything and there will undoubtedly be several million mor small farmers go broke be fore supply and demand is once more in balance. If, in spite of these facts, the committee is still bent on induc ing people to enter the poultry business, I hope they will be fair in pointing out the competition. Our college says 3000 layers is the minimum for a living, Wash ington Slate College says 4000 lay ers, The flock average at Sacramento, Calif, is now over fiOOO layers and in some cases, one man, using all modern ma chinery, cares for 10,000 layers by himself. With fryers, one man should raise 20,000 three or four times a year. There's no such thing as a "little poultry ranch" anymore, anyone intending to raise poultry will have to be big and it will require a capital in vestment of $30,000 and up. I'd surely advise a person to think twice before they go into the chick en business. K. C.

Our drive is half over and if any persons would like to hav our salesmen call on them, call Edith Marshall, 464 S. Jackson St., tele phone OR 3-5449. Mrs. Edith Marshall Roseburg So now the "captains and the kingj" depart. The summit meet ings have produced neither ran cor, nor jubilation. Nor any con crete result to mend the riven world. The Russians fly back to their problems in Moscow, which have neither grown nor lessened during the week of Geneva. President Eisenhower, Prime Minister Eden and Premier Faure return to their own capi tals to resume business where they left off. Despite their smiling faces, the "new look" Russians have not proven themselves substantially more yielding than their gloomy predecessors. Despite their sincere wish to cooperate, the Western leaders have not made any naive com mitments such as were made at Yalta and Potsdam. The Russians have not knocked Germany out of the Western line up. We have not persuaded the Russians that Germany should be reunited and in NATO. The Russians have not persuad ed us to throw away our H-bomb lead in the weapons race. We have not persuaded them to dis band their vast land armies and free the satellites. Highlight of the talks was Pres ident Eisenhower's "bolt from the blue" offer for a complete exchange between Russia and the U.S. of military blueprints and free mutual air inspection. Coming almost extemporan eously and at the eleventh hour of the conference the offer electri fied Geneva and produced reac tions of varying intensity around the world. As the dust began to settle, how ever, it was noted that there were several "bugs" in the proposal. Run Already Informed i'or instance: The Russians already possess blueprints of most of our mili tary establishments; we have vir tually no intelligence on theirs. Hence the Russians would not snap up a one-way proposition, Mr. Eisenhower undoubtedly has authority as President to make an offer to permit free air inspection of U.S. military instal lationsbut could he make it stick? The law forbids unauthor ized flying over such establish ments as the big atomic energy plants at oak Ridge, Tenn., Han lord, Wash., and Los Alamos. It now appears that congression al leader's were not even sounded out about this plan before the Pres ident left for Geneva. In a dispatch from Geneva, NEA.'s diplomatic reporter, Leon Dennen, notes that the Russians cannot go along with Mr. Eisen hower because they arc afraid to reveal the extent of their lag behind the U.S. in nuclear develop ments. The President is too sincere to have tossed otit his plan merely for propaganda but the effect upon world opinions could not have been better if he had been advised by Phincas T. Barnum, Steve Han nagan' and Batton, Barton, Dux stine and Osborne. State Fair Show Tickets To Go On Sale Monday SALEM (tfl Tickets for the Ore ton State Fair events will go on .aia novt Mnnriav.

Douglas Fir Use For Newsprint Being Studied Ways of expanding the use of Douglas Fir chips for pulp are un der study at the Oregon Forest Products laboratory on tne Ore gon State College campus. Approximately 1,000 tons of saw mill and veneer residues are now chipped and sold daily to the kraft industry, but no Douglas fir chips are being used to produce news print. Kraft industry makes such products as paper bags and wrap ping paper. The market for mill residues would be expanded and raw ma terial supplied for additional pulp production if a process is develop ed for producing a satisfactory newsprint pulp from Douglas fir chips. More than 5,700 tons of Doug las fir sawmill residue go unused daily. Dr. Ervin F. Kurth is directing this new phase of the laboratory's research program. Several new pieces of process equipment have been installed. Pulps made from Douglas fir chips by several different proces ses will be compared with news print pulp stock, and their strength color and bleach-ability will be evaluated. Pulps produced will be studied to determine their usefulness for paper products now in large de mand, such as container board, newsprint and paperboard. Doug las fir will be used first because of the large volume of readily available sawmill residues from this species. For some products, such as corrugating medium, color is not important and chips from unbark- ed slabs could be used if the bark had little dertimental effect on other properties of the product. Ability to use chips with bark would mean that a mill could sell chips without installing a barker, and would provide a use for the bark. too. The forest products laboratory is a state research agency sup ported by a timber harvest tax. John Wm. Unruh, M.D. Physician-Surgeon announces the opening of his office -"' 303 Pacific Bldg.
