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. I

predators. (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.

Gilbert, a lot of animals die be

pend on 'the winter food brought
them rather man wonting ior

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.)

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

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.
AMERICA already is suffering
serious educational loss at many
levels and in many different wavs.
The loss is deeply personal for the
individuals involved, but it is also

This is not something to be left to

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

cans. If we don't attend sensibly and

Dulles Says U.S. Would
Welcome Soviet Support
To Prevent Mid-East War
WASHINGTON-W Secretary
of State Dulles said Tuesday the
United States would welcome So
viet support for United Nations
efforts to prevent war and estab
lish peace in the Middle East.
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. The Arab states

The Middle East discussion dom
inated the Dulles conference. 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

about tne present mission by Sec

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

I have explained to the girls that
they must either satisfy the mod

close down."
For the time being, Williams and
the girls compromised on a wisp
