To Olalla Irrigation District
By BILL SPARKS
Ntws-Review Staff Writer
Some 75 central Douglas County
rural residents turned out for a
special meeting Thursday night
and gave the green light to forma
tion of an irrigation district for
the Olalla Dam area by a two-to-one
majority.
One area that had originally
been proposed to be included in
the benefiting district, Flournoy
Valley, was tentatively dropped
from the planning at the unani
mous vote of the majority of land
owners in the area. They 'voiced
opposition to the project because
they own large parcels of land and
feci the cost would be prohibitive.
The 75 who turned out for this
meeting voted in a Land Owners
Committee, which will in turn

draw up a petition asking the Doug
las County Court to hold a putmc
hearing and subsequent election on
the desired formation ot an irri
gation district.
This petition will require the sig
natures of 50 residents of the bene
fiting district. At the actual elec
tion, the issue would have to be
approved by 60 per cent of the
landowners involved before the dis
trict could be formed.
Once that district was formed
all land within the boundaries
would be considered part of the
district and all residents would be
taxed by the district in accordance
with their total Irrigable acres, re
gardless of whether or not they
personally were in favor of the
district,
The actual charges for water
within the district will be made
on a scale established by the three
member board of directors which
will be elected at the same time
the district election is held. Charg
es will be on a basis of irrigable
acres and not total acres. The
board of directors, acting on Bu
reau of Reclamation studies, will
determine which acres are Irri
gable and which are not.
When the election docs come up,
each family with a tract of land
containing not less than five acres
will receive one vote per family.
The areas involved are the Look-
ingglass Valley, Tenmilc, Brock
way, Melrose, Happy Valley, 01
alia and Flournoy Valley. Prior
to the dropping the 980-acre f lour
noy Valley, tentative acreage in
the district was figured at 12,130
acres.
The proposed Olalla Dam itself
would be constructed on Olalla
Creek some 20 miles from Rose
burg. Estimated cost of the dam
and irrigation system is 10 mil
lion. The district would have a re
payment potential of about $1 mil
lion and the federal government
would charge the other $9 million
to Columbia River power projects.
If an irrigation district Is formed,
it would take about five more
years before water would start
running throngh the ditches to ir
rigate land in the district. . The
Bureau of Reclamation is slated to
have its feasibility report on the
project completed this December
and will not be able to continue
Winston Opens Bids

correspondent.
The bids were from F.d A. Miller,
contractor from Roscburg, for $2,
540, and Howard Newton ot Win

Hi
with the project until it has an
official district to deal with.
The irrigation district was voted
in for this area instead of a water
control district or a corporation
because the laws for an irrigation
district make all land within the
boundaries part of the district
while the other two leave the
choice up to the people, who can
join or not join as they wisn once
the district is formed.
Lookingglass resident Art Loerts
who has chairmaned the drive for
formation of a district recently
said he felt this was the only type
of district that could be formed,
because the project would not be
financially feasible without all of
the land being included
Other members of the landown
ers committee are J. G. Dickover
Tenmile, Harold Nichols, Brock
way, Stanford Buell, Happy Valley,
Oliver Fisk, Lookingglass, Herbert

Rotary Club Hears
Marketing Expert
The purpose of the Brand Names
Foundation is to impress on con
sumers the benefits of using brand
name products.
So said Mike Koza, merchan
dising director McKay's Markets,
Eugene. lie was featured speak
er at the weekly meeting of the
Roscburg Rotary Club Thursday.
His store in Eugene was an all
star winner in the Brand Names
contest sponsored by the founda
tion last year. He was introduced
by another Brand Names contest
winner, John Robertson of Rose
burg.
"People can't smell, touch or
taste every product, but they can
know who makes it, Koza said
"A brand name Is a company s
reputation," he continued.
The foundation, he said, tells
people r.what brand names do. It
shows there is indeed a difference
between brands. It also helps com
panics in promotional advertising
ideas.
He also explained the annual
Brand Names contest in which
Robertson, a Shell Oil Co. station
owner, has been a runner-up in
three of the last four years.
The contest is an appraisal of
a company's brand names promo
tion effectiveness. A retailer of the
year is named in 26 categories
They are alcoholic beverage stores,
appliance stores, automobile deal
ers, building materials stores, chil
dren's wear, department and drug
stores, farm equipment dealers,
food stores, furniture stores, gaso
line stations, hardware and house
ware, jewelry stores, men's wear
shops, music stores, photograpny
stores, shoe stores, specialty stores
and sporting goods stores.
This was the last meeting of the
fiscal year for Rotary. Bill Car-
stens took over as new president
from Joe Boatwright.

tiations becau;e of its current fi

Rocket Failure
Stops Dust Hunt
WALLOPS ISLAND, Va. (AP1-
Rockct failure apparently cut off
today an effort to make the best
study yet of the space dust that
constitutes a possible lethal threat
to spacemen.
A Scout rocket lifted off a sea
side launching pad here at 12:06
p.m. On its nose rode an instru
ment package designed to learn
more about the tiny space bullets
that might erode or even puncture
a space vehicle as they strike it
at speeds up to 45 miles a second
But at 12:19 p.m. the National
Aeronautics and Space Adminis
tration announced that the fourth
stage of the booster failed to ig
nite. A spokesman said "It looks
bad."
All four stages of the rocket
were to have been fired in about
eight minutes after the launching.
The 72-foot, 36,600-pound rocket
was intended to put the 125-pound
micrometeoroid satellite into an
orbit ranging from 240 to 620 miles
up.
I.ess formally, technicians
dubbed the space traveler "beer
can after tho shape of its im
pact recording devices.
The intent is to learn more
about the space dust perhaps
ultimate debris of exploded plan
ents that might erode or even
puncture a space vehicle as the
particles strike it at speeds up to
45 miles a second.
Scientists thought they might
find big ones even up to a tenth
of an inch radius with the
equipment sent up today. Those
recorded so far have been "real
flyspecks" as one scientist word
ed it, on the order of four ten
thousandths of an inch. - Even
those, however, are rated a pos
sible menace.
The density of the particles in
the outer reaches is indicated by
estimates that thousands of tons
filter through the atmosphere and
settle on the earth daily.
Officials of the National Aero
nautics and Space Administration
estimated it would take nearly
two hours to determine whether
the dust hunter achieved orbit.

Ironer Found On Walk
Roseburg police today are won
dering who might be having diffi
culty getting their ironing done
without their mangle ironer.
At 12:15 a.m. today such an iron
er was found on SE Rose St. on the
sidewalk. Merchant police brought
it to the police station to await
someone's call reporting it miss
ing. Lost- Boat Recovered
A boat belonging to Millon Sulli
van. 309 SE Klla St.. Roseburg,
reported missing to the sheriff's
office Wednesday, was recovered
Thursday by sheriffs deputies.
lhc boat had been beached at
Singleton Park on the Umpqua
River. It was recovered across the
river.
Reuther came to Chrysler from
General Motors and Ford where
he opened new contract negotia
tions on successive days. At Ford
Thursday he declared the new
pacts with the industry must
break new ground and develop
new concepts.
Chrysler lost $21.9 million in
this year's first quarter and some
financial sources estimate it also
lost money in the second quarter
ending today. The UAW argues
the wage contract is not to blame,
since Ford, GM and American
Motors rolled up profits with simi
lar ones.
John D. Leary, Chrysler vice
president for industrial relations,
said in a statement: "The out
come of these negotiations is im
portant not only for the future
well-being of Chrysler, but also
will have a direct bearing on the
future well-being of its employes,
its dealers and its suppliers,
"We feel that all interests can
best be served by an agreement
that will fully recognize the cost
pressures which so heavily in
fluence the production and sale
of consumer products."
UAW President Walter P. Reu
ther, who led the union's bar
gaining team at Chrysler as he
had in openings on successive
days at General Motors and Ford,
declared at Ford Thursday that
"new ground will have to broken
and new concepts developed"
in contract settlements this
summer.

Congo Celebrates
Independence Day
LEOPOLDVILLE, the Congo
(AP) With flags flying, a big pa
rade and a beauty contest, Leo
poldville turned carefree today in
celebrating the first anniversary
of Congo independence.
Clouds of political uncertainty
blew in from the problem prov
ince of Katanga, but Congolese in

.Four days of celebration in the

way Thursday with a football
game. Other highlights are a
competition to select Miss Lco
poldville of 1961 and a round of
diplomatic receptions.

, for the
ninth straight day and
a flood of explanations
elicited
adding up to only one thing:
Eichmann never conceived an or
der but only carried out his su
periors' bidding.
Illustrative of this was Eich
mann's repudiation of a document
naming him as the man who
"ordered" evacuation of a men
tal hospital in Holland so it couid
be turned over to SS military
units.
"This could not be accurate at
all," said the defendant, claim
ing that Arthur Seyss-Inquart,
the Nazi governor of Holland, had
full "legislative authority" and
did not need to come to Eich
mann's bureau in Berlin for such
action.
"It was quite obvious they only
needed a train," said Eichmann.
"And that is how it was referred
to my section."
The mentally ill Jews and even
the staff of the hospital were
shipped out to destruction.

Eichmann deprecated docu
ments labeling a special mission
to Denmark to transport Jews
out in ships as the "Eichmann
Sonderkommando".
He said there was a tendency
to term any unit connected with
his department IV-B-4 Jewish
affairs a "sonderkommando."
Sonderkommando, or special
unit, was the name given by the
Nazis to the battalions sent to
the East in 1941 and 1942 to li
quidate two million Jews by gun
fire and in mobile gas vans.
The Danish venture failed to
materialize, mostly because the
Danes by an almost unanimous
resistance made Denmark the one
giant failure of the Third Reich's
effort to liquidate the Jews.
Eichmann admitted he went to
Copenhagen on orders of his im
mediate superior, Gen. Heinrich
Mueller, but contended the plan
already had been "implemented"
by an SS colonel on the scene by
the time he got there.
