and beetle-infested timber, Roscoe
E. Bell. Regional Administrator,
announced recently.
The O&C and public lands in
western Oregon administered by
the Bureau are so seriously af­
fected by the timber killed as a
result of extensive fires, severe
windstorms, and an epidemic of
the Douglas-fir beetle during the
last few years that preference
must be given the salvage of this
timber to prevent a very heavy
loss and to help curb the spread
of the beetles, Bell said.
The Bureau is inviting lumber
operators and others interested in
purchasing O&C and public do­
main timber in western Oregon
during calendar year 1954 to sub­
mit their suggestions for tracts
of timber to be offered for sale.
