THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1963 Ticket Vending Machines Intrusive Introduction of self-service ticket-vending machines on Forest Service camp Kvuundfl uf the Pacific Northwest Region exemplifies the devious ways of prog ress. The regional Forest Service office re cently released a list of campurounds which will be converted to charge areas and equipped with ticket-vending devic es, requiring payment of $1 per camping unit for overnight camping or trailer parking. The new program has the effect of piit ' ting parking meters in the woodlands. The unhappy truth is that the day has come when forest users must start feed ing machines (o utilize public recreation facilities. Forest officials have indicutcd the pay devices will be established only at the more elaborate camp grounds that is, those with modern conveniences and fancier facilities. The academic basis for charge camp grounds is that they should be support ed financially by the people who actual ly use them. Receipts from such charge facilities go into the U.S. Treasury and are reapportioned by Congress. Twenty five per cent of the receipts are returned to the various counties for schools and roads. Here's how the system works. The gadgets are usually located near camp- . ground entrances. The camper drives through the site, picks out a unit he likes and then returns to the machine to in sert two 50-cent pieces. (If he doesn't have the change, he can leave a note and an attendant will take care of him the next morning.) The user fills in the back of the ticket he receives from the machine and plac es it in the ticket box located near his camp unit. Douglas County will have one site Siltcoos Forest Camp in the Siuslaw Na tional Forest converted to this system this year. None is planned on the Ump tua this year but three depending on funds are being considered for 1964. These would be at I.emolo Lake, Kagle Rock Camp on the North Umpqua River and Hogus Creek camp five miles below Steamboat Ranger Station. improvements are planned at the three facilities to bring them up to "ticket vending" standard before the conversion is made. There are, of course, sophisticated campers who want to combine their out door camping experience with some of the comforts of home. The charge camp ground with its various conveniences is suited to this group. liul many others want their public rec reation lands left free of too many charg es and regulatory procedures. , . . One attraction of the forest is the op portunity for city dwellers to escape from the mercenary methods of the city. An over-abundance of charge programs and money-collecting gadgets would be an undesirable situation. It would, in deed, undermine basic purposes of the public forest playground. Ticket-vending machines regardless of their financial importance are an in trusion upon the .outdoorsman's private world. The Otitdoorsman has a sense of personal ownership in the fields and streams of the public domain and would prefer to have his world left intact. The ticket-vending program should be held to a minimum. Public agencies must make every effort to preserve the wil derness characteristics of the public's forest recreation facilities. The Snowman Who Won't Go Away THE LIGHTER SIDE: Snitz, Hog Maw Delights Gourmet The Almanac By DICK WEST United Prats Inttrnatlonal WASHINGTON (UP1) Some months ago I wn advised In con (iilcnce that our neighborhood gourmet soeloty might invite me to deliver ltd annual J. uclcnor McBurpp memorial lecture on gastronomy. The lecture comca each year Just before the start of the Jap anese beetle season. The society always chooses a distinguished epicure to address it, so 1 natur ally was fluttered to hear that it was considering me. Apparently, tho trustees were Impressed by the scries of papers 1 presented last year on "Great Dishes of the Western World." Thus far, the lecture invitation has not been forthcoming, but in anticipation of tho honor I hove been doing some additional re search on great dishes, Investigates Report In this connection, I recently made a trip to the Pennsylvania Dutch region to investigate a re port that It had spawned a great dish called "hog maw." At the time. 1 was under the Impression that "hog maw" re ferred to a motherly type pig. Subsequently, however, 1 learned that the maw is the lining of the hog's stomach. That somewhat diminished my Intellectual curiosity, as well as my appetite. However, the trip was not entirely fruitless. I can use It to advantage the nest time I get involved in a "place-dropping" contest with some of my fur flung friends. When they start casually men tioning the famous places where they have dined, I can counter by Baying, "Yes, but did you ever dine at the Jefferson, l'a., Volun teer Fire Department?" 1 happen to have been at the fire hull on the evening that the ladles auxiliary was serving its annual spring dinner. As a mat ter of fact, that was where I learned the truth aliout hog maw. Bought Cookbook The auxiliary also was selling a Pennsylvania Dutch cookbook and 1 bought copy as a pres ent for my wife. She was delight ed with the gift until she opened it. rtlght on the first page It listed "amounts required for 50."

Stanton News Analysis 111 Kremlin Eyed n Reasons Hungary Foreign News Commentary By PHIL NEWSOM DPI Foreign News Analyst Back in February, 1949, a dull- eyed man in a Budapest court room pleaded guilty to treason against Communist Hungary. 1 lie man was Josef Cardinal Mindszcnty. To this duy, there has been no clear account as to the methods the Communists used to torture such a confession from the austere cardinal who had fought brought to a trumped-up trial, no one should believe him if some how such a confession should be extracted from him. The Communist court sentenced him to life imprisonment and, ex cept for 120 hours of freedom dur ing the Hungarian revolt in 1956, that was almost the last the out side world was to see of Mindszcnty. As the Hungarian re volt crumpled under the weight of Russian tanks, the cardinal t..oli sanctuary in the U. S.

Here, in my opinion, is one of Oregon's finest park and recreation areas. I have long been of the opinion that this is the'tract that should be taken over by the National Park i Service, rather than the piece in Coos, Douglas and Lane counties. The area has far more to recommend it, I be lieve, than does the site over which there presently is so much haggling. I have a strong reservation, how ever. If the people in the area now under consideration refuse needed protection for the recreational re source, the first asset and highest use of the section, then preserva tion through a park seems to ba the only answer. A national park has as its pur pose the preservation of scenic ar eas. Proposed seashore parks have the added purpose of preservin: pose when a single purpose ade quately would serve the Clatsop site, and at less public expense. On the other hand, as I said earlier, ' a park, either national or state, is the only answer if the residents don't quit dragging their feet on the matter of land use zoning. Rep. Gene Hulett, D-Eugene, has demanded of Gov. Hatfield that he fire all five members of beaches and recreational sites for the Oregon Game Commission. public use devoid of the honky-1 An aide to the governor has re. tonk development which so fre-! ported that Hatfield has no inten quently invades our beaches and! lion of firing the commission, rivers.

The Fort Stevens site, with its park; the mouth of the Columbia River, where the Game Commis sion has spent a large sum of mon ey to develop recreational factors, the dunes, lakes, scenic spots, and sites fur camping make the Clat sop County site a "natural," in my opinion. I still believe that an unbiased investigation would favor the Clat sop site over the west-central loca tion now under consideration. But members of the commission and the top department heads. A nicer and more courteous and friendly; group of people you'll seldom find. If they treated Hulett "discourte ously." I'll gamble he got mighty abusive before he aroused a heat ed retort, if any. Furthermore, Hulett said "sug gestions were implied that we didn't know what we were talking about."

The Immediate effrcl, however. Is only to ohm. Ke the focal point of the conflict from the House to the House taxation committee, where there is a 6-3 majority AGAINST a sales lax. It rather looks like Oregon is dead set aguiml sales t a x. doesn t It? j Or is It? Let's look at some figures. The last time Oregon voted on i general sales tax was in 1947. It. went down to defeat bv popular i vote of 67.514 yes to IHO.3,13 no. i That was a ratio of 2.7 to 1 In the ! popular vote. j Day ln-fore yesterdav. the Ore-i gon House of Representatives vol- J ed 34 26 against referral of a sales ; tax to the Oregon electorate. That' Is a ratio of only 1.3 to 1 Could it be that sentiment against sales tax In Oregon is declining south and along the Oregon-Washington border in the north might lose quite a lot of business. 1 So this isn't a plug for a sales tax in Oregon. Down here in the! southern part of the state, we need all the business we ran get. That, presumably, is equally true of the (owns and cities along llie Oregon Washington border. Idaho has no: sales tax. Nevada has a sales tax,! but the Oregon-Idaho border is rather thinly settled. i The sales tax Is VKRY popular! if it can be said that any tax is I popular. According lo the best in-! formation available as this is writ-! ten, 39 of our 50 stales have some' form of sales tax. w , Why this popularity? j The answer Is rather simple. ' The sales tax is ALWAYS PAID! V V. There is no anxious scratching ! of the bottom of tho barrel when con.es the grim hour when you must dig up your share of the, cost of government . That, presumably, explains why 39 of our io slates have sales, taxes. There is an ancient tax prin-i ciple that goes something like: this: "That tax is best which gets the most fealhers from the goose with the least amount of squawk-i lug" The sales tax does just that. US. Racial Compared BY LYLE C. WILSON United Press International Time blurs the memory of those years just after the armistice when the United States awkward ly was adjusting to an unknown new world filled with unimagina ble terrors at home and abroad. But the year 1919 can be pinpoint ed as one of shameless U.S. civil disorder. This disorder consisted of race riots between whites and Negroes in several cities including Wash ington, DC. There was race trouble ill 1919 In Tulsa, Okia., Chicago and Detroit and else where although names of other cities do not pop to mind.

None of these factors existed in 1919. There were other factors that did not exist in 1919. There was not underway in 1919 any ef fort by the Federal government to impose racial Integration on states. Neither were Negroes north and south in 1919 organized behind aggressive and sometimes belligerent leaders.
