TREACHEROUS ond difficult to control, a rampant grass
fire is the dread of firemen. Whipped by wind, it dances
swiftly, ruthlessly and pell mell ooross a field. Roseburg
Fire Department is urging property owners to burn off
hazardous grassy or weed areas. Photo above was taken
Local Firemen Offer
Grass Burning Advice
The danger of fire outbreak on
vacant lots and on fields over
grown with weeds and grass is
unusually acute in Roseburg this
summer, Fire Chief LeRoy Siebold
warned today.
The Fire Department has been
summoned to fight several grass
fires already this summer and
prevalent weather conditions in
dicate continuation of a high fire
danger level, said the chief.
He reminded residents that burn
ing permits to burn off grassy and
weed areas are available from the
department. Burning is restricted,
however, between the hours of 10
a.m. and 6 p.m.
It is suggested that owners of
vacant property which is located
on reasonably level ground can
cut, rake and burn the area under
ordinary circumstances without dif
ficulty. If assistance is needed,
residents may contact the fire de
partment. '
Burning grass on hill slopes is
more difficult, Siebold noted. Prop
erty owners should strip the area
to, be burned, as a safeguard, cut
ting a suggested, 10-foot fire trail
around the area of the burn.
Fires under permit are allowed
only when the property owner has
indicated he will have an ade
quate water supply (able to reach
any point around the fire; and
adequate manpower to keep it un
der control.
The volunteer fire organization
is conducting a grass burning pro
gram as a community service
again this year. The work is done
on a donation basis.
Haiard Reduced
Siebold said the program is help
ing reduce the fire hazard. Volun
teers, along with off-duty fire de
partment members, are turning
out three and four nights a week
to burn lots at property owner re
quest. No charge is made for the work
but donations are accepted. Any
money received by the volunteers
goes into the Volunteer Fund.
In addition to helping the com
munity eliminate fire hazards, the
service has the further benefit of
providing important training for
fire personnel. "It's good experi
ence for them," said the chief.
"They learn first hand the be
havior of grass fires and how to
control them." . .

Sawrnills Close
PORTLAND (UPD Permanent
closures of four more large saw
mills in the Douglas fir region
have added to the economic de
spair of the industry, the West
Coast Lumbermen's Association
said Thursday.
The association said the latest
closures threw hundreds out of
work at Bradwood, Ore., and at
Seattle, Raymond and Aberdeen
Wash.
The association also cited the
recent temporary shutdown of the
Georgia - Pacific mill af Toledo,
Ore.
Vice president C. C. Edgett said
some 200 sawmills have shut
down since Canadian lumber im
ports started squeezing northwest
lumber out of United States mar
kets.

Second Firm Plans
Oil Exploration
PORTLAND (UPI) A second
oil firm said Thursday it will start
oil explorations off the Oregon
coast, while the Oregon Fish Com
mission wrestled with complaints
that, fish are being hurt.
Standard Oil launched explora
tions off the Washington coast and
said its boat would move south
off Oregon later this summer.
Shell already is exploring off Ore
gon. The fish commission insisted at
a meeting earlier that blasts used
by Shell in mapping the 'ocean
floor have had little effect on fish
life.
Kenneth Olson of Astoria, a
fishermen's spokesman, retorted
that the commission lacked suffi
cient evidence of the effect of the
underwater explosions. The com
mission has promised to step up
studies in blast areas.
