TO THE RESCUE!

Coastal Zoning Deserves Commendation
Zoning of Pougla County's coastal,
strip from Reedsport north to the county
line and five miles inland from the ocean
will, we may be mire, eventually be rec
ognized as an outstanding act of respon
sible citizenship.
All concerned with this activity deserve
appreciation and commendation.
It was entirely possible for the Doug
las County Court to have shoved zoning
down the throats of residents of the area.
The law permits the court to order zon
ing regulations without consent. Such
regulations may remain in effect for a
fixed period, after which residents may,
by an election, decide whether they' will
retain the restrictions.
But the Douglas County Court didn't
act in any such arbitrary manner. In
stead, working with and through the
Planning Commission, every phase of the
program was discussed with the resi
dents of the region. Majority under
standing, cooperation and approval was
obtained before the order was made.;
There are plans to Include this area in
a National Park. But it will be a good
many years before any federal action is
taken.
In the meantime our coastal region is
growing by leaps and bounds. Expansion
involves industrial, residential and rec
reational uses. This growth will be far in
advance of the slower decision concern
ing park status. Unless steps are taken
immediately to protect property values,
it is almost certain that undesirable uses
will be made of some lands. That, In
turn, will depress values of adjoining
properties.
j Gov. Hatfield recognized this fact in
urging the counties of Lnne, Douglas and
Coos to adopt uniform zoning regulations.
A tri-county committee was formed to
study the matter. But it was unable to
''sell" zoning to all affected areas.

THE LIGHTER SIDE:
Architect's Work
Liked Over Song
m
By DICK WIST
WASHINGTON (UPI) There
Is generally a right way ind i
wrong way to approach a prob
lem, although ...many people ap
parently are not aware that they
have a choice.
With all due respect, I submit
that Sen. Paul 11. Douglas, D-11L,
chose the wrong way to try to
abolish the architect of the Cap
itol. The title of architect presently
Is J worn by J. George Stewart,
a genial gentleman who goes
about the Capitol puffing on a
pipe and performing what he
construes to be good works.
The $2tl million new Senate of
fice building, the $20 million east
f rcrht extension and tho $118 mil
lion newest House office buildings
ari among the projects carried
out tinder his aegis.
'J Unappreciated By Seme
Some members of Congress,
however, do not appreciate nil
that Stewart has done for them.
There seems to he a feeling that
he is killing them with kindncsa.
As Sen. William E. Proxmire,
D-Wis.. put it: "We hav nothing
hut disasters to show ' for the
enormous amounts of money that
Congress has been persuaded by
the architect of the Capitol to
spend."
Ho told the Senate that the
nrw buildings were "inconsistent
with the rest of the archi
tecture"; that the construction
has been "exceedingly expensive:"
that "actual spending always
soars far over initial estimates
and that "blunder his followcrt
blunder.
All of this led Proxmire to con
clude that the Capitol would he
hotter off without an architect.
When the annual legislative sp
proprlatlon bill came before lhean i(pi, ,m amiy uf "rjranls
Senate this week, he introduced i ... ,ir,,i- i nnn.u,ri l,,. o-i

ty's coastal strip has decided to "go it
alone."
As previously mentioned every phase
of the zoning plan went before a commiU
tee representing the residents of the
area. The land use plan, as a result, was
not impressed upon the people. Instead
it was worked out with residential coop
eration. This is in marked contrast with some
parts of neighboring counties where resi
dents are battling with county courts,
planning commissions, the federal gov
. ernment, etc., insisting upon a status ouo
: which any reasoning concerning the fu
, ture indicates is both impossible and dan
gerous. Douglas County, through a program
that has had the benefit of the ideas of
many people, now has a master outline
that will assure order to future growth,
rather than some of the sad disorder to
be seen elsewhere.
Particularly to be commended is the
foresight in creation of a tourist-commercial
zone, a new feature in land use plan
ning. Tourism, unquestionably, is to be
one of the chief factors in the use and
development of our coastal area. To pro
vide areas to be particularly developed
for the accommodation and entertain
ment of out-of-state visitors is a farsight
ed and practical plan.
It is to be hoped that the Douglas
County residents south of Reedsport to
- the Coos County line will imniediately
take steps to urge upon the Planning
Commission similar land use studies
and ordinances.
At this time, particularly in view of
Industrial expansion at Gardiner, the
emergency Is chiefly in the north half of
the county's coastal area. But a great
i'-;d of land south of the Umpqua River
likewise should be designated for its best
um3, particularly as there exists a large
recreational potential which should not
be lost by inferior and even undesirable
developments.
might bt a good way to get Con
gress out of Washington." To a
layman such at myself, this had
the ring of pure logic.
It failed to sway the bulk of
his colleagues, however, and the
amendment was rejected.
1 strongly doubt that the pro
posal would have bcon adopted
under any circumstances, but
any chance It might have had
was lost when Douglas arose to
support it.
Lyrically citing the blessing It
would provide, Douglas declared
that "If we were to wake up
soma morning and find that we
were not graced with the pres
ence of an architect of the Capi
tol, we would all sing, '01 What
a beautiful morning, 0' What a
beautiful day!"'
Although the other senators tact
fully rofralncd from comment, I
suspect their reaction was that
anything the architect might do
would bo prcrcrable to having
Douglas burst Into song.

STORY CORNER
by Alan Knudtson
of KNUDTSONS' JEWELERS
I'm the kind of a "square" who
thinks that some of the wonderful
1 things about Oregon ought to -h?
preserved, and that Chamber of
I Commerce type come-hithcring di-
rected toward industrial growth
may well spell the end to all the
I things that we love about Oregon
and take for granted,
i For some inscrutable (to me)
reason, bigness is associated by
many people with bestness. I sup
pose some people would like to
brag to a person from another
I city, say Mcdford or Eugene, that
"our town is bigger than your
town." Or maybe, "our city has
got more unusual and exotic plac
es to eat than your town has."
(We've got some real "different"
places, but they're not exotic).
Frankly, it seems to be an is
sue of pride. Roscbursers arc in
ordinately proud of their town
and area, but they can't seem to
put their finger on exactly what
it is that they're proud of. What
ever it is, it can well be lost in
the fumes of more smoke stack!),
more parking problems, race riots,
more labor problems, more crime,
more taxes, too much hunting and
fishing pressure, water contamina
tion, sprawling suburbias, air pnl
ution, traffic jams, water short
ages and the other accompanying
problems of simply having too
many human beings crammed into
too small a space.
Wilh all this undoubtedly in
mind. Stuart I loll) rook and a band
of merry men up North decided
the great Northwest would not be
so great if it took on the aspects
of a Los Angeles transplanted.
Thoy formed the James G.
Blaine association pledged to turn
back outlanclers with , the simple
psychology of advertising t h e
Northwest's rainfall.
To a Californian raised in cactus
and palm country, the word rain
is filed in the same recess of his
mind as is the word plague. One
has only to casually roter to the
average yearly rainfall of any
area in Western Oregon or Wash
ington in speaking to a Californian,
and he will blanche and slide into
his convertible and head south. If
he still lingers, drawn by the beau
ty of our yet unspoiled playground,
he can be further prodded by tell
ing him that although the sum
mers are mild and dry. the win
ters arc just ri;ht for growing
mushrooms or the mold of which
penicillin is made. Invite him back
lo vacation next summer, but for
gosh sakes don't encourage him to
settle; is the general idea.
In an article written for Holi
day magajine, Hoihrook told a
story about one utizen of the
Xorthwe-t v.hn carried this whole
idea to the illogical extreme. He
was talking to an oullandor who
wanted to know if it rained much
in Oregon. "Well," said the na
tive, "last year it rained every
blessed day cept three: and them
three daj was damned cloudy!"
