Stanton I have a most interestine letter from "Chuck" Collins. Ha's the new uresident of the Oregon Wildlife Federation and he's better known to Douglas County residents as su pervisor of our county Parks Department. . He includes a reply to Mrs. Eunice C. Brandt of Sa lem, who proposes state and federal protection for the trap qua River between Scotlsburg and Reedsport. Believe me, I'm on Mrs. Brandt's side! Mrs. Brandt points out that a half-mile strip on each side of Canvon Crest should be preserved from commer cialism and left to prevent blow dovn into the canyon and to lend "proper depth for visual integrity of the scene." Except for about V ' miles the south wall is made up of the north boundary of "the Elliott Forest, fully owned by the state of Oregon. The south wall, Mrs. Brandt points out, contains nine miles of Siuslaw National Forest, with about three miles at each end presumed to be in private ownership. Mrs. Brandt furnished Collins with a Scenic Conserva tion Proposal to which Collins replied that the Salem lady has "well analyzed the great tangible values found in this natural setting." Would Save Canyon Mrs. Brandt's proposal is very simple. She would pro tect the whole river canvnn between Scottsburg and Reeds- - port from destruction. She would prevent commercialism of the forests along the river. She says: Recreation should ba considered the first usa of this strip of land. It Is unlqua In tha continental United Statas in Its clota ra samblanca to a Scandinavian fjord. It is accassibla by good high way from rha populous cantars of tha stata as a link in a loop trip, thus offering tha spiritual release of travel in tha deep forest to those who are unable to visit the wilderness by trail. The tidewater river offers all the opportunities of this type of water for fishing, swimming, and boating. These activities are immeasurably heightened when they are enjoyed against a back ground of undisturbed natural beauty. Wildlife abounds on tha slopes, and a game preserve would bo a logical usa of such an undisturbed forest area as is proposed here. Mrs. Brandt further proposes that (he Scottsburg Reedsport section of the TJmpqua River be set aside by Congress for "scenic enjoyment for future generations." The proposal unquestionably is one with which all peo ple who know that section of the river will fully agree. Logging In Progress Already the river is being spoiled for recreation by the all too many logging booms extending along the bank in the tidewater section. As logs become more scarce, there will be more and more temptation to log into the riv er canyon. It certainly is easy procedure to log down the canyon wall to one of the many log booms. Unless some thing is done, and at once, to protect the river canyon against commercialism, a beautiful recreational area will ba hopelessly spoiled. It docs not take a long memory to recall when the low er Umpqua area was favored by sportsmen in the fall of each year. Both banks are growing up to summer homes. The property and recreational values should be protected. The Salem lady has given "Chuck" Collins and his group something to think about. The rest of us have our work cut out, too. We must give our support and cooper ation. The job has been described. For my part, I think it is a job worth doing. "By George, I Thought It Was a Cow!"
