Winter Feeding Of Deer Called Poor Solution To One Of Northwests Problems By PAUL G. S. LLOYD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Winter feeding of deer is a poor solution to one of the Northwest's problems says Douglas L. Gilbert of Montana State University. He can give you seven good rea sons why the program isn't the solution to the deer wintering head ache faster than a whitetail can scoot over a hog back. Gilbert leads off with money, maintaining the cost of labor and feed is high in the artifical feed Setup. Money and manpower can be better spent. Next, says Gilbert, is the con centrating of large deer herds in small areas. The browse is taken down to ground level. Browse re covery is generally slow and stunted in such a district. Forced bunching makes the herds easy prey for epidemics, poachers and Hitchcock, McKay Both Take Swing At Senator Morse By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The two major candidates for Republican nomination to the U.S Senate avoided mention of each other in campaign talks Tuesday but whaled away at Wayne Morse, the Democrat now holding the scat they both are seeking. Fhil Hitchcock m a speech at Eugene, said Morse had an "in effective and poor voting record." Hitchcock said that if elected he would seek posts on the Agricul ture and Forestry Committee of the Senate. He also would ask posts on the Interior and Insular Affairs, Labor and Public Wel fare and Foreign Relations com mittees, he said. Ai-caKer Douglas McKay, in the second day of his campaign, told of the importance of reduc ing the national debt. And he cited his efforts toward this as governor and secretary of the In terior. He said that while he was gov ernor of Oregon some 340,000 acres of the Tillamook Burn had been replanted in trees without help from the. federal government an illustration, he said, of the sort of self-help action that's needed. i As a member of President Eis enhower s cabinet, he said, he got uie Aiasxa nauroaa operating on a "businesslike basis," producing four million dollars in revenue in the past two years compared with lusses in previous years. He said Morse had not properly represented the people of Oregon in the Senate and that he had re signed as secretary of the Interior "to replace Morse." McKay's first major ispeech will be given Wednesday night at Pen dleton.

(If you think predators aren't a problem, the Spokane of fice of the Washington State game department paid out $1,125 in one week on cougar Dounties at $75 each. One hunter got seven lions. Some figure a cougar will haul down 200 deer a year. Gilbert says artificial feeding re sults in more deer being carried over to the next year to bear young. Each year, more deer, less natural winter food. He says the handouts are en joyed by only a small part of a herd. The main population still goes hungry. with all tne tree loading, says Gilbert, a lot of animals die be cause natural browse isn't avail able to suDDlement the hay diet, Deer can starve with a stomach full nf hav.- liilbert Deiieves Keeping wua animals wild goes over the hul with the hay lifts. He saya the deer are domesticated by ths feed- inir oroarams. iney lesrn to de pend on 'the winter food brought them rather man wonting ior their supper. Finally, says Gilbert, animals are exposed to accidents, such as highway kills, as the artificial feeding sites are generally close to roads. As Gilbert is outspoken about what he thinks of the winter feed ing, he comes through just as sharp and crisp with a solution to the problem. "Obviously," says the assistant professor, the only solution is to crop the herd down to the size the winter range can support. The Montana Fish and Game Depart ment is trying to bring this re duction with liberal season and bag limits." Some Montana hunt ers are allowed to bag two deer a season, one whitetail and one mule deer." . A Washington State Game De partment employe says this about the problem: . The state has the animals, the range .and the harvesting agent, the hunter. It should liberalize rlnni M9nn pvpn more. Let the hunter take the animals because if he doesn't, disease, predators or the weather will. The State Game Department has es timated this year's severe winter will kill 50,000 deer, more than half the number taken during the 1955 hunting season. (This, however, was an unusual winter and the department be lieves it will have to restrict the kill in some areas next autumn so the herds can be rebuilt.) Portland Airman Fourth Traffic Victim In State An airman from' the Portland Air Base was killed early Wednes day in the crash of his automobile northeast of Portland. It was Oregon's fourth fatal accident in less than 24 hours. The Wednesday morning victim was Airman 3 C Philemon Brown, 23, Pocatello, Idaho. A compan ion. Airman Donald Rhine, 23, Salem, was taken to Providence Hospital with serious head and bodv iniuries. Tuesday afternoon a collision between an automobile and an oil truck killed Mrs. Mary Garner, about 30. of North Bend, Ore., at Junction City. Her husband, Dew ey Garner, was critically nun. Their 5-year-old son had less ser ious injuries. In that accident, at the junction of highways 99E and 99W, the car driven by Garner was northbound, The driver of the truck, William H. Fleming of Eugene, was not hurt. A Southern Pacific freight train killed George Hamilton Gilbert, 76, near Albany. Gilbert lived in a trailer nearby and trainmen said he ran in front of the train without any indication he saw or heard it. Earlier Tuesday Bill Jeff Evitt, 32, O'Brien logger, was killed when his car left the highway on a curve near Cave Junction. OSC SCIENCE RESEARCH OREGON STATE COLLEGE More than $200,000 in grants from government agencies and com panies has been received by the Science Research Institute at Or egon State college in its three years of existence. Dr. Vernon H. Chcldelin, insti tute director, reported nearly $100.- 000 has been granted SRI this past year. The institute was form ed in 1952 to stimulate cooperative research bv scientists in fields bas ic to chemistry, biology and med ical science. OSC scientists are conducting a wide range of research projects under the grants. Included are studies on biochemistry of heart tissue, hruning of carbohydrates in the cells of animals, plants and microorganisms, and investigation on formation of amino acids, the building blocks of all cells. Grants to the institute this past year have come from National Sci ence foundation, atomic energy commission, U.

TONIGHT THIS WEEK FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE Fullerton Drugs 635 S.E. Jackson ORchard 3-741 S MUCH is being made of the fact that Congress has dragged its feet on the issue of aid to schools. But there is no reason to lay all blame at the lawmakers' door. Education experts report that the states aren't grappling with the full problem of school growth, either. This year American colleges and universities have a record enroll ment of three million students, up 250,000 from last spring. By 1970 it is predicted the total will be six million. The United States Office of Edu cation has released results of a study which suggests the colleges aren't preparing for this great wave. Only six states New York, California, Florida, Iowa, Louisi ana and New Mexico have taken real steps to handle the expected expansion, according to the agen cy. . . The majority are said to be just "sitting it out" in the hope the problem somehow will take care of itself. Thirteen states have done nothing. EDUCATORS at the National Conference on Higher Education in Chicago warn college officials that the problem will not conveniently dissolve with the passing of time. Planning at the elementary and high school level is going' forward, but there is no comprehensive pro gramming for college growth. This report makes astonishing reading. The telephone company and the power company do not wait until customers are pounding on t h e l r doors. At times they are caught snort ot materials, out they are al ways looking a decade or two ahead. The worst that can hanopn tn a frustrated telephone subscriber is to have to find a public telephone someplace. But a young American turned away at the colleee gates or jammed into overcrowded class es can't solve his difficulty that easily.

It is customary to talk of our educational needs these days in terms of national survival in a world menaced by communism. That indeed is one measure. But at stake, too, are the quality and character of tomorrow's Ameri cans. If we don't attend sensibly and energetically to the problem of as suring them a good education at all levels, then we may doom most of them to a tragic mediocrity. In this tensely competitive world, we would be sorely tried to maintain leadership under such a handicap. 1 ' HE'S ABOVE IT ALL Bruce Larson bas worked out a solu tion . to spring's' muddy season in Minneapolis.

Dulles spoke at a news confer ence immediately after the Soviet Foreign Office announced the Rus sian government would cooperate in U.N. peacemaking. But Dulles noted he had not seen the full statement. He said it is always necessary to read the fine print in Soviet pronounce ments. Dulles said the Soviet pronounce ment might be a response to President Eisenhower's statement of April 9 calling on all U. N, members to support peace efforts. Dulles also told his news con ference: 1. The Eisenhower administra tion believes the time has come for a comprehensive re-examination of the whole foreign aid program. He agreed with a proposal to that ef fect made by Chairman George (D-Ga) of the Senate Foreign Re lations Committee. Dulles said the study could be made before the next session of Congress . by a group which would have the con fidence of Congress and the coun try. 2. Ha believes the Western pow ers were right at . the Geneva meeting last fall to give top prior ity to German unification rather than disarmament. Leaders of the present French government have said disarmament should have been put first. - ' 3. President Eisenhower will dis cuss administration proposals for foreign aid appropriations and long-range commitment authority when he addresses the American Society of Newspaper Editors here Saturday night. ' 4. The United States would not object if other members of the United Nations Security Council would like the Council to hold its next sessions on the Middle East in some European city like Ge neva or Rome.

After commenting that he always found it. important to read the fine print in Soviet statements, Dulles said the United States took the position many weeks ago that the Middle East crisis was properly a matter for the United Nations. He added that this country intro duced the resolution which brought about tne present mission by Sec retary General - Dag Hammarsk jcld to Israel and the Arab states. Chorus Cirls Object To Appearing In Nude YORK, England I Chorus girls in the touring revue "Fancy Pants" threatened a strike over a shortage of what's in the title of the show, and they don't mean "fancy." Posmg in the nude, they said, was no part of the bargain when they signed on with the troupe. Show manager Eric Williams conceded this, but told reporters: "Out here in the provinces the audiences won't come to the thea ter unless you give them nudes. I have explained to the girls that they must either satisfy the mod ern demand or we will have to close down." For the time being, Williams and the girls compromised on a wisp here and a wisp there.
