This amount is then We Must Fight For Industries McKay Claims Roseburg and Douglas County, , to get their share of new industry, are going to have to get out and fight just twice as hard as they have been, and "we have jist be gun to fight," Del McKay told the Roseburg Lions club Thursday night. McKay is co-chairman with Don Dole of the Hoseourg (area) unam ber of Commerce Payroll Develop ment Committee, which Is study ing what Douglas County , has to offer and its possibilities of at tracting new industry or further development of present industries. He outlined the makeup of the committee, and listed its members under the headings ot leg men, re search, industrial and publicity subcommittees. He also, discussed outside help from the state Depart ment of Planning and Development and key men assigned by leading public utilities in furthering the program here. The city and county have got to stop "dreaming" about some huge industry that will come in to solve all our Industrial problems so that everyone will get rich. ( They must take a realistic ap proach by starting small and think ing big. He said and must start scratching, rooting and working hard on payroll development on a small scale, by developing busi nesses, industries and ideas. He advised that any one having an Idea should contact the commit tee. A year ago 18 cities had Indus trial parks. Today 33 cities do. He stated planners advised against raising a lot of money and buying up land for future industries, be cause there may be disappoint ments, but that every effort should be made to help and encourage po tential Industries whethor the pay roll is big or small. "equalized" to give a larger share to poor districts. Gov. Mark Hatfield recommend cd an increase to $130 per child $160 Figure Seen Leth's proposal would hike the basic school grant to $160 per child, remove present equalize tion provisions, and distribute the $160 to districts on a flat-grant basis, with the census determined on the present 4-20 year basis The Leth bill would remove transportation, growth, emergen cy and all special program ac counts from the basic school fund. These services would be appro priated directly from the general fund. The meaiure also would repeal tax onset provisions. The Ways and Means Legisla tive Fiscal Committee bill would remove all special accounts, ex cept transportation and growth. It provides that the basic school fund, and all special funds, would Two Cars Collide Here Wednesday Cars driven by James Andrew wnite, IB. of 228 SE P Izer.

Soviet Fighters Circle Copters BERLIN (UPI)-Two Soviet jet fighters circled two U.S. Army helicopters over Berlin today, ap parently to underline Russia's con tention that the helicopter flights were illegal. An Army spokesman said the jets approached within 550 yards of the helicopters but took no ag gressive action. Oone of the helicopters was over East Berlin and the other was flying along the West Berlin side of the East-West city border, the spokesman said. Western officials noted that the Russians never before had sent up aircraft when American hell copters were in the air although the Soviets maintain helicopter flights over East Berlin are il legal. The officials said 500 yards was not too close to approach another aircraft. Witnesses said one of the MIG jets flew into West Berlin to cir- cle five times a helicopter clearly over West Berlin territory. The helicopter over East Berlin also was circled several times, witnsscs said. The helicopters were flying al a height of about 250 yards. Both landed safely in West Berlin. The Soviets long have de nounced helicopter flights over East Berlin as illegal, and have even warned tney mignt snoot them down. However, the Western Allies as sert they may fly anywhere in Berlin, East or West. 2 The Newt-Review, Roseburg, Ore.

The board consists of Ray Doer ner, county commissioner, as chairman; Carl C. Hill, of Dixon ville, former county judge, and Harold Woolley, Drain. They met this week to look over the ratio studies of the assessor and ques tion him as to how the figures were arrived at. The ratio is required by law and means the assessor must use a figure of 25 per cent of the actual estimated cash value of property in preparing tax rolls. , This figure is uniform through out the state, except for Multno mah County, which uses 33 per cent. It has been in effect since adopted by the 1961 Legislature, but the county Board of Equaliza tion must act upon it each year. The board meets again May 13 to listen to taxpayer appeals and to equalize Ihe assessment roll. Taxpayers must file protests of their assessments by May 1. How ever, before filing (heir complaints, persons are asked to consult with the assessor to make sure an er ror has not been made and at tempt to make reasonable adjust ments without the complaints com ing before the board.

Norwood Robertshaw, recreation planner for the Umpqua National Forest, said the USFS expects to see an increase from 308,000 vis itor days recorded on the forest's parks last1 season to 1,880,000 in 1976. This figure will again in crease to 3,860,000 by the year 2000. ' Increase Due In keeping with attempts to meet the increased usage, Robertshaw pointed out the Umpqua National Forest, which presently has 290 acres in recreational development, will increase that total to 500 acres by 1965 and 2,300 acres by the year 2000. A review of the Umpqua's poten tial recreational use sites was made in 1960, after an order had been issued by the President to re view all Forest Service recrea tion resources. A total of 6,000 acres of potential campsites was established on the Umpqua. Robertshaw said the Umpqua has more than enough land for the needed developments, and that the question mark centers around whether Congress will' allocate enough funds to keep up with the demands, lie said the local for est's program for the coming year calls for $155,000 to be spent on recreational developments. More Sites Added He also announced that 40 to 60 more sites have been added to the Diamond Lake facilities. Some of the lakeshore sites have been re moved, to allow more access to the la'ce by persons in other sites The road in the campgrounds will be paved, to cut down on the amount of dust in the camping 1 area. ; Both Robertshaw and Bureau of Land Management District Super visor Murl Storms agreed that most of their recreational work will be done on area near the Umpqua and North Umpqua Riv ers. Demands for such lacintics in the southern part of the county 000. Storms said. Currently, t h e BLM plans to install 20 campsites, an undetermined number of picnic sites and pit-type toilet facilities. Later on, a kitchen-type structure will be built, as well as a Softball field, flush toilets and bath facili ties. BLM work is being carried on both under funds provided through their regular recreational develop ment funds and through funds ob tained from the Accelerated Pub lic Works Act. Wilbur Weiprecht, head of the Douglas County Parks Department, said present thinking of county parks officials is that emphasis should be placed more on develop ment of present sites than on ac-j quisition of additional park lands. One project the county may en ter is the proposed parks construc- adjacent to dams. In the list of new park develop ments planned for this summer, he pointed out the development sched uled for a 4.88-acrc site at the mouth of St. John's creek on the South Umpqua river. He also said the Parks Depart ment is developing a new brochure listing all county facilities. This will be made available to the pub lic at the county courthouse and through chambers of commerce in all major cities in the county.
