WASHINGTON (UPI) - The

Roseburg Area
Economy Good
Despite Strike
The overall economy in the Rose
burg area for June continued at
a level comparable to that for
May, considering that approximate
ly 350 workers are involved in a la
bor dispute directly affecting the
lumber and wood products indus
try.
This was the summation of F. C.
Riley, manager of the Roseburg of
fice of the Oregon State Employ
ment Office, in his monthly report.
Construction activities continued
at a high level. An increase was
noted compared to May as well
as June 1962. Wholesale and retail
trade activities are below what is
usually expected for this time of
year, and this is largely attribu
table to the untimely cool and
somewhat adverse weather.
During June 86 young people un
der 22 years were placed in va
rious types of employment by the
local office. The active file of job
applicants numbered 639 individu
als, both young people and adults.
The majority of these are in the
semi-skilled, clerical and sales and
service occupations. Persons who
can use one of these wokers is
asked by Riley to call his office.
673-5586 or visit the office at 846
SE Pine St.
New job applicants numbered
296, compared with 267 in May and
442 in June a year ago. There
were 190 job placements compared
with the same in May and 183 in
June of 1962. Initial unemployment
claims stood at 377, compared with
624 and 321, respectively, and the
average weekly number who claim
ed a week of joblessness was 423,
816 and 470.
Roseburg had the lowest per cent
of insured unemployment among
listed Oregon cities, compared with
the average covered employment.
This percentage figure was 3.4, as
against 3.8 four weeks ago, 3.5 a
year ago, 4.3 two years ago and
3.1 three years ago. The Roseburg
total was below that of the state
at 3.9, Grants Pass at 4.7; North
tsena .i ana Eugene 7.2.
Sonny Commons
Will Manage
Arctic Circle
E. G. (Sonny) Commons arrived
In Roseburg earlier this w t k
from Idaho to make arrangements
for the opening within another
week or so of what will be known
as Sonny's Arctic Circle.
The building to house the busi
ness Is now being constructed on
W. Harvard Blvd. on the north
side of the street in the vicinity of
itoseDurg mgn scnooi.
The business is owned by the
Arctic Circle, Inc., with headquar
ters in Salt Lake City, and will
be operated by Commons. It will
feature primarily ice cream prod
ucts, along witn chicken, ham
burgers and soft drinks. Commons
said the place will employ up to
12 persons in peak periods on two
shifts.
The block building was erected
at a building permit figure of
$15,900, but another $18,000 worth
of equipment is being installed.
This is in addition to the property
cost. The parking area has been
blacktopped. The building has an
enclosed area for people awaiting
orders.
Mr. and Mrs. Commons have a
married daughter, Mrs. Mcrlyn
Gubscr in Eugene, and a son, Gary,
third-year student at Oregon State
College. Commons and his wife,
Maxinc, are living at 2438 W.
Crcstview Dr. They formerly liv

where they operated a wheat farm.
They have sold the farm.
Roseburg will be served with na
tural gas by fall of this year. Oth
er Douglas County cities along the
gas line to be built from Eugene
can expect the service in 1964.
This was the information trom
Al Parr. Roseburg manager for
California- Pacific Utilities, and J.
S. Richards, gas engineer, working
out of the Medford office. Rich
ards was in Roseburg this week
checking over plans for local con
struction, and will be spending con
siderable time here during t h e
next three months.
El Paso Gas Co. has started con
struction on a multi-million acinar
line to connect with a previously
constructed gas line at Eugene and
extend south through Cottage
Grove, into Douglas County. The
line will in general follow the Bon
neville and Pacific Power 4t Light
Co. rights of way south.
To be constructed are three
miles of 16-inch and 125 miles of
10-inch lines, which will run about
two miles west of Sutherlin, and
west of Winchester to cross the
North Umpqua River near t h e
Roseburg Country Club. It will then
cross the South Umpqua River at
the Melrose road about 3.5 miles
west of the Roseburg city center or
one-half mile west of the city
limits. The line then will go south
to the Winston-Dillard area, west
of Myrtle Creek, east of Canyon
ville and on south to Grunts Puss.
The line at the latter city will
nnnnrt with another now under
construction to Ashland, a distance
of 56 miles.
El Paso plans to spend 7(4 mil
lion dollars on its main line and
Cal-Pac another 5la million over
n fivp.vpflr period to hook up the
respective communities along the
way and expana service. 1 u
Grants Pass - Ashland line is cost

Roseburg in Douglas County will
get natural gas this year, some
time around Sept. 15, when the
construction work is expected 10
be completed this far. The line
then will be activated with that
of existing city lines, which wero
converted during a major re-construction
program here in 1962.

Market Outlook Is Mixed
For Logs, Lumber, Cones
The open market for logs in
Western Oregon is beset by a
number of uncertainties, but ap
pears generally fiivoruble for the
next six months with demand ex
pected to remain fairly high,
says C. F. Sutherland, Oregon
State University extension forest
economics specialist, in the new
Oregon farm and Market Out
look. Copies of the outlook cir
cular are now availablo from
county extension offices.
Housing economists predict con
struction during the remainder of
1963 will match the pace set in
1962 when builders erected almost
a million singlo family dwellings,
he said.
Canadian competition continues
to be a primary factor affecting
Oregon lumber and log prices, lie

to mark a gain of 1.6 percent

Salot Tax May Hurt
A new Canadian manufactu
rers' sales lax of 11 per cent on
all consfructlon materials used in
Canada may shift more of that
country's lumber into the export
trade, Sutherland warned.
The October blowdown continues
to hang over the industry as
owners push to beat insects to
the affected areas. Paradoxically,
Sutherland said, the labor dispute
may actually improve the mar

ber. The strike has pushed pric-

pounds for local consumption.

An 8-inch line will be laid in the

Hardwoods will probably con
tinue to move well in most West
ern Oregon counties, Sutherland
said. Furniture sales have been
excellent and are expected to ap
proach 1962, a record year in the
industry. Hardwood lumber pro
ducers have been pressed to find
an adequate supply of high qual
ity logs to meet the demand for
alder and maple furniture stock,
he noted.
Seed Prices Good
Prices for Douglas fir seed
should be fairly high this year
since supplies will be scarce, he
continued. Commercial seed buy
ers and OSU geneticists forecast
a very poor crop ot Douglas fir
seed in Northwest Oregon this
fall.

plus poor pollination hecausc ot

duction and insects have attacked
much that remains, he reported
A strong market is expected
next fall for high quality Christ
mas trees, particularly for cul
lured Douglas fir. A ready mar
ket should also be available for
grand fir and Oregon shore pine.
The major markets for Oregon
producers will continue to be in
California, although the Portland
area will provide an important
outlet for many producers, Suth
erland said.
