CONSERVATION NEEDED NOW
By Ctorge Castillo
This is Conservation Week in the state of Oregon.
It was officially launched Monday by Gov. Robert D.
Wnlmp on the courthouse steps at Roseburir. Actually,
such weeks have only the value as a reminder that the
Ti-fiiMilar mihiect involved mav be worth recoenmwr.
In my mind, many of the subjects on which such weeks
are focused are not worth a reminder, but the subject of
conservation is not one of these.
Conservation or "wise use" of all the state's resources
is due vear-around recoemition.
It's apparent that the land and the water are the two
most important areas over which man has a chance to
practice conservation. Our wildlife, economy and our very
futures rienend on the wise use of the land and water.
Far too often in late years, however, signs of the mis
use of these have become evident. The result has been a
waste of these two most valuable resources.
The water, of which the county has enough over a
year's time to handle practically any future needs, roars
to the sea in tremendous quantities in the winter and trick
les in tiny streams during the summer.
Land Ruined
When the masses of water roll through the county in
the winter, they gobble great chunks of the fertile soil from
the edges of the streams.
In the summer, when only tiny fingers of water mean
der toward the sea, not enough is even available on several
streams to fill water rights. Ren R. Irving, chairman of
the Water Resources Advisory Committee, savs that if all
rights were taken at once on some streams, they would be
dry in the summer.
These facts indicate anything but wise use of the re
sources we have. Land Is ruined, precious water is dis
sipated, agriculture is restricted and life is threatened.
The very future itself is dependent on taking steps to make
wise use of the two major resources. Agriculture is rec
ognized as a strong economic building block in the future
of the county by the Rureau of Reclamation, and it is work
ing toward formulating plans for coupling unused, but fer
tile, land with water for best use. Impoundments, which
would store the excesses of water in winter for summer
use, would also enhance the economic value of recreation,
another economic plus.
Finally, the vast economic resource of timber on which
present livelihood is based, can continue as an everlasting
bank of green gold by wise use. Controlled logging prac
tices, sustained yield methods and close study for best uses
of cutover and burned forest lands can help stabilize both
land and water while the economy is being protected.
Again recreation and wildlife will benefit.
Steps Being Taken
The steps of protecting the land and water are far into
the planning stage in this progressive county through the
workings of many agencies, but the tremendous strides
necessary will only be possible so long as the people of the
county support these efforts. This means cooperation with
agencies making studies, support of policies determined
after studies and recognition of the values of the efforts be
ing made by such groups as the Water Resources Survey,
advisory committees, conservation-minded officials and or
ganizations. Dan Dimick, county Conservation Week chairman, said
the emphasis this year will be on youth education "because
they will be the ultimate custodians of our natural resourc
es." The children, however, often appear to be more conservation-minded
than their elders. Now is the time to
push efforts to the limit to save our resources so that chil
dren of today will have something to guard when they be
come custodians.

WASHINGTON - (NEA) -Rear
Admiral George J. Dufek, com
manding t'.S. Deep Freeze open
lions in the Antarctic, his reveal
ed the inside story of what was
built up into I great race by two
explorers to reach the South Pole
this year.
The two expedition leaders were
Sir Edmund Hillary, 38, of New
Zealand, conqueror of Mt. Everest,
and Dr. V. E. Kuchs, 50. British
scientist. Hillary got to the Pole
first, on January 3, Fuchs, slowed
down by thaws which threw him
nearly three weeks behind sched
ule, made it January 19.
But Kuchs and his party of 12
had the distinction of being the
first men lo cross the entire Ant
arctic continent twice the size
of the I'nited States on foot.
IT WASN'T i race at all, though,
says Admiral Dufek.
The original plan was one of co
operation. Hillary was to go in
from Rosi Sea, south of New Zea
land, over the route taken by
Amundsen and Scolt. His assign
ment was to lay supply bases for
Fuchs, who was to explore a new
route from Wedell Sea, soulh of
the Soulh Orkney Islands, oft Cape
Horn, South America.

Thinking
It Over

(Written for NEA Service) I
Seed catalogues have been view
ed and read by many thousands of
Americans in recent weeks. Many
are still trying to decide on the
seeds which they may wish to
buv. i
Scores of folki will give much
attention to the pictures and de-,
scriptioni of the flowers and plants
but will never get around to buy- j
ing the seeds and will forget to
plant the tiny spheres in the
ground.
Those who plant no seeds will ,
have no flowers in their gardens.
They will never see the reality de
scribed in the catalogues. They will
have failed to benefit from their1
reading ind from their untried
plans.
A multitude of people read the
Rihle in much the same wiy that 1
they read Ihe seed catalogues. They '
are intrigued by the stories of
faith and hope and love. They ,
read about the results of salvation
and about the development of
God's programs. Somehow they :
never get around to accepting God. '
They never apply the principles.
Their spinli never grow. j

base at mile 700. he decided to
push on to the Pole. He found thi
going tough. So he sent i message
tn Fuchs, then still 300 miles the
olher side of the Pole, advising
that he be flown out and try again
next year.
This dispatch was supposed to be
confidential, says Admiral Dufek.
But it was made public in New
Zealand. From this. an impression
was given that there was a rival-1
ry between the two explorers, and
(hat Hillary was trying to talk
Fuchs out of making the race.
Daily reports built up this idea.
IN AN EFFORT to counteract
this impression. Admiral Dufek I
decided to fly correspondents in to
Ihe South Pole base established by j
the United States and supplied by '
air. ,
When Fuchs was a mile or two;
from the Pole, I party went out
to meet him. Fuchs greeted Hill
iry wirmly, says Admiral Dufek.
There were no hard feelings be
tween them.
Later Fuchs told Hillary that it
was right for him to have sent Ihe
dispatch, advising an end to the
expedition. But Fuchs pointed out
that he had gone into debt some
20.000 pounds to finance his explo
ration. His men were on a year's
leave. It would be impossible for
them to come back next year.
OPERATING PEOPLE in Ant-I
arctica have paid no attentibn to
rival claims of the various coun
tries, savi Admiral Dufek. They
don't discuss territorial claims.
Everybody gets along, even with
the Russians and vice versa.
U.S. prestige has stood up well
in the Southern Hemisphere dur
ing the International Geophysical
Year, says Admiral Dufek. This
country announced in 19M it would
establish sen bases, including a
South Pole base, and it did.
The Russians announced in 1955
they would set up a South Pole
base, but they yielded when it was
pointed out this would be duplica
tion of effort.
Instead, the Russians announced
they would establish bases at the
magnetic South Pole and at the
"Pole of Inaccessibility," as Ad
miral Bvrd called it. This is 14.000
feet high, in the center of the con
tinent, l ast reports had the Rus
sians still 500 miles from their goal.
BUT THE RUSSIANS are ap
parently in Antarctica to stav. So
is the I nited States. The Geophys-1
ical Year ends December 31. how
ever. Admiral Dufek will return to
Antarctica in September to super
vise cutting operatiobs more than

It may not be a good idea to send

cause he might be heckled and in

That ii a pretty pass to be reach

60 BILLION DOLLARS of its treas
ure to help out peoples who are
less fortunate than u-e
It calls for some rather ferioui
ininxing on our part.
This thought is advanced by those
who support continued American
aid spending in Europe and Asia
and elsewhere in the older world:
If we don't do it, RUSSIA will.
not let Russia do it?
Consider this possibility:
It isn't wholly improbable that if
we retire from the giveaway field
and Russia goes into it in a big
way the peoples who receive Rus
sia's bounty will TURN AGAINST
HER, as they have turned against
us.
W'e have proved rather conclu-
aneiy in our loreign aid experi
ment that you can't BUY friends.
Why not?
Let's put it this way:

from a distant state sent a member
of his staff around to vou and that
this person said to you, in effect:
"Why. you poor thing, vou are in
a had way indeed. AIv boss is ler
,ribly sorry for you. Here's $10,000.
The only string attached to the gift
is that you agree to be friends with
him."
I suppose you'd take the $10,000.
But of this I'm certain: You'd be
HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS of the do
nor, and you'd watch him like a
hawk from Ihen on. You'd wonder
what he was up to, and vou'd be
pretty sure he was up to no good.
Human nature is human nature.
Anyway
We haven't had much luck with
our foreign aid program. In spite
of our sixty billions, we seem to
have got everybody down on us.
Why not let th Russians take i
whirl at it?
