P i . yai V FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1963 Research The Roseburg Research Center moved into new quarters this month, and the establishment of a permanent home for the researchers can be considered a real landmark in county forest activities. The new greenhouse and head house (a storage facility) was built on prop erty turned over to the U. S. Forest Service by the Veterans Administration Hospital. It is a comparatively unimpos in.fr structure now, but is a start in the direction of greater forestry research in Douglas County. The new building will be the site of a lot of studies which will benefit the coun ty for many years. The first studies be ing planned are brush control and inves tigation of mixed pine-fir forests. The latter will involve work . on 1 drought resistance and growth factors of these mixed forests. The importance of the brush study is to control brush so seedlings can get a start without having to fight through a tight curtain of brush. When areas are burned over or cut over, the first growth, and certainly the hardiest growth, is brush. It forms a so-called "overstory" and new conifers are choked out or Southern California is facing the threat of another water crisis within the next decade as the result of a U.S. Supreme Court decision. The decision limits the use by Califor nia of waters from the Colorado River. ' This probably means Californians will again be looking covetously at Oregon's abundant water with hopes of siphoning some of it into the thirsty south. Arizona took the question to the Su- preme Court when it was found Califor- nia was using more than its allotment from the Colorado, while the demands caused by great growth in Arizona were increasing rapidly. The, problem of who gets the water hasn't become acute yet, but if popula r By PHIL NEWSOM In Georgetown, capital and port of Briusn uuiana, me ouviei freighter Kirovsic finished the loading of 30,000 bags of rice and pulled out for a destination un announced but believed to be Cuba.

In that strike, 40,000 workers quit their jobs. Before it was over six persons were killed, scores injured and nearly $30 million damage suffered by property in mob looting and burning. The immediate cause was a new government budget including new taxes which the unions charged would be borne mostly by the workers. But behind it also was resentment among the unions against government at tacks on the unions and against union leaders and racial differ ences which color all Guiana af fairs. These differences are between the East Indians who work on the plantations in the countryside and negroes wno lanor in the city.

The research center will contin ue to search for ways of regulating this brush so the new trees can get a fair start. The mixed pine-fir project will be de signed to aid foresters in improving re generation of forests after cutting. These studies are vital to the improve ment and continuation of the county's biggest economic factor. But these studies are just beginnings. Many other problems must be solved to make the forests grow faster and better. The keys to these problems will be sought out and solved by research cen ters such as this one. The new facility for the Roseburg Re search Center is the starter unit of what is expected to become a more compre hensive facility in the future as money becomes available. The operation here deserves commu nity support in hurrying those funds along. As the facility becomes complete, more problems can be worked out by the scientists working there. And with every breakthrough made by them, the county and the lumber industry gener ally benefits. Water tions continue to explode in both south ern California and Arizona as they have in the years since World War II, the problem will become critical soon. California is currently building a $1.7 billion pipe line from the Feather River in northern California to the Los Angel es area which will alleviate some of the difficulty. But it's only a stopgap meas ure. The state has made previous over tures for use of waters from some of Oregon's rivers, and the pressure can be expected to increase. Oregon should be on guard to protect its own water, which in many areas (such as along the South Umpqua) is in adequate to handle present needs, let alone those of the future. The unions are demanding Ja gan's resignation. Jagan made several visits to Cuba and has expressed admira tion for both Castro and Nikila Khrushchev. It is perhaps accidental that in his present extremity he also has received aid from Cuba. The gov ernment's import-export corpora tion announced last week that a Cuban ship, the Maria Theresa, had arrived with essential food and fuel supplies. The Import Export Corporation is the agent for all Cuban and Russian ships. As for the United States atti tude toward Jagan, it is in a po sition of being damned if it does and damned if it doesn't. It fears that Jagan might give the Reds their first solid foothold on the continent of South America. It has been wary of too much aid to Jagan but on the other hand would like to believe him when he says he believes in democracy. As the present strike follows its course of violence, one conclusion seems certain. It is not likely to convince Britain or the United States that Guiana is ready for the total independence Jagan seeks. , 9n 2)aiJ Token from the files 40 YEARS AGO June 21, 1923 Leo C.

THE LIGHTER SIDE: 1 1 & By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPD This old cattleman had an uncanny knack of estimating the size of a herd, and when someone asked him how he did it, he said: "There's nothing to it. I just count the legs and divide by four." That's a joke, son, but I'm thinking that the Army might have done well to have used a similar system a few years ago when it was ordering snowshocs for the troops. somehow or other. It wound up with 4.090 more snowshocs than it needed, a situation that might nave uuua avuuico uy couniing beads and multiplying by two. At any rate, on a soring day in 1958 the Quartermaster depot at Jelfcrsonville, Intl., advertised the 2,045 pairs of surplus snow- shoes for sale. Snowshoes In May - The documents I have availa ble do not make clear just why the Army decided Uiat the month of May was a propitious time for selling snows noes. There is no gainsaying, how ever, that few tilings are more surplus than snowshocs in May. Anyone who has ever spent time in the Army can visualize tor 11 1 in set now the sale came about. In the mental pic lure I get, a supply sergeant dis covers the extra snowshocs under a pile of mosquito netting. Anyone who has spent time In the Army also can rearjuy under stand how the sale of the snow- shoes could wind up in a big snafu. . What happened was that Outlet Stores, Inc., of Denver, Colo., put in a bid to buy the snowshocs at $0.11 per pair. Its offer was the highest submitted for 1,445 pairs. But when the bids were op ened. the Army sold 1,345 pairs to the Outlet Stores Co. of St. Paul, Minn., for $5.68 per pair. When Outlet of Colorado quires as to why the Army had accented the smaller ma 01 uui let of Minnesota, it was found that an "administrative error1 had been made. FINDS ELECTION SWEET COLUMBIA, Mo.

Neither of the condemned spies talked or attempted to talk, as the last moments came. At the hour of retribution, crowds gathered, demonstrating, in New York, London and Paris. u$ s. e warn si.

Snowshoe 'Snafu Tests Endurance The Army attempted to re trieve the snowshoes, but by that time most of them had already been resold to someone else. Leonard Joseph, president of the company, said he had mado arrangements to sell the snow shoes he bid on for $14.75 a pair. He claimed that the Army had done him out of $12,644.41. But when the matter was bucked to tho U.S. comptroller general, it was ruled that the government was not responsible for Joseph's theoretical loss. Congress now has before it a bill to pay Joseph $1,000 for his time and trouble as regards the snowshoe snafu. Regardless of how it comes out, 1 will credit him with commendable determi nation. Someone less resolute would simply have gone out and buried himself in a snowdrift. 9 ITS FRISKV S A SPECKLED PUP ATA FIREMEN'S PICNIC -AND A EOT EASIER TO UlTCH ONTO ! 9 SEE YOUR FORD DEALER NOW AND SAVE ON AMERICA'S TOTAL PERFORMANCE CHAMPS!

As the years went by more and more joined the fold until today only a few die-hards stick to the book pro cedure. Furthermore, the records seem to show that those die-hards aren't really experts any more since their names never appear among tournament winners. It seems that it is about time for the public to take up and use this improvement in playing tactics. I have used it in my (able of leads in "Win at Bridge with Oswuld Jacoby" and have mado it stand ard in the Jacoby system. Of course, I have been using it for many years in my own play. Now take a look at the North and South hands and the bidding. West opens the deuce of spades. East takes his ace and returns the six. If your opponent had led the top of three small, you would, play the king of spades. You arc reasonably suro that if East held seven spades he would have bid a second time over North's two clubs, so that West is marked with the queen of spades for his opening lead. So you play the king and West's queen blocks the suit. But you supposo that West did not hold the queen, but opened low from three small. You must finesse the jack because the odds are that East holds the queen. West takes his queen, returns the suit and down you go. Q The bidding has been: South West North East 1 4. Pass 1 Pass 2 N.T.
