Rotary 1 Club Hears Indonesia Visitor A slide-illustrated talk on his re cent trip to Indonesia was present ed to members of the Roseburg Ki wanis Club by Paulus McKee Tues day. The speaker spent several months in the former Dutch East Indies surveying the possibilities of establishing a plywood manu facturing operation there. His re marks and photos told of his trav els in the islands and showed much of the country, its geography, in dustry and customs. He expressed the belief that the Indonesians, because of a strong ly religious nature, aren't as sus ceptible to communism as many people apparently think. The speaker didn't express any opinion concerning the feasibility of a plywood operation in the area he visited but many of his slides showed massive stands of what ap peared to be suitable timber. In addition to his slides, McKee 'showed some articles of native manufacture he brought with him from his visit and some samples of the various woods growing in the area. McKee was introduced by Eldon Caley. - , Bruce O'Niel and Don Harris were at the meeting represent ing the Key Club, and Harris out lined some of the activities sched uled at the high school. .

However, he said; there is now a committee from the .World Alliance working with a commit tee from Russia to resume YMCA activities with the rest of the world and that YMCA activities are con tinuing in China under sponsorship of church interests. He reported it is the hope of the World Alliance to bring YMCA work to all countries and to unite all people in building world-wide Christian Fellowship, and promote Christian ideals and values.

Wed., Aprit 17, 1963 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. 3 Youth Advisory Committee Eyes Summer Work Camp Possibilities The Douglas County Juvenile Ad visory Committee Tuesday night received indications it would prob- amy not nave any trouble finding work for delinquent boys in a ju venile work camp program. The council is currently studying the possibilities of setting up a work camp program under the jur isdiction of the Douglas County Juvenile Court. It would be used for young men, at the discretion of the court, who probably should not oe sent back to their own homes or to foster homes, and at the same time, are not incorrigible to the point they should be sent to the MacLaren School for Boys. Forest Service Heard Two speakers at the meeting were Vondis Miller, supervisor of the Umpqua National Forest, and Jack Price, Little River District ranger in the same forest. Both agreed plenty of work would be available for young boys in for estry and conservation work. Miller said the Forest Service has financial limitations which would limit any money it could provide for the program, but he said technical supervision and training could be offeredHe said it was possible some transporta tion and food could be provided also. "We've got a million acres and I don't anticipate we would run out of work for the boys," he said. Both he and Price said they thought work could be provided in both summer and winter. Others Show Interest Others at the meeting indicated the Douglas Forest Protective As sociation and the state Game De partment had also indicated inter est in the project. None of the jobs involved would compete with regular labor markets. County Juvenile Officer Julian Helieck reported during the meet ing that members of his depart ment and the Douglas County Court had investigated the possibil ities of setting up a semi-permanent headquarters at Winchester Wayside Park during the next year. He said the park would get little use during the year because of highway bridge construction. At the same time, he said, the com munity would get a chance to see the program in action. Completing the evening's pro gram was a showing of colored slides by John Seasons of Riddle on the subject of camping.
