Cangresaman Robert B. Dun can (D-Cee. ) announced today that $85 m illion worth of lum ber w ill be purchased this fis cal year by the Lumber Procure ment Office of the Defense Sup ply Agency. Five-hundred and ten m illion boaid f e e t of lumber w ill be purchased through the Portland, Cregon, office of the total pm- chase of 650 m il lion board feet of untreated soft wood lumber. Moat of this lumber w ill be con struction grades with a few other grades and items Included It was also announced that most of the 60 m illion board foot purchase of treated lumber w ill be purchased through the Portland office. In addition, there w ill be 110,- 000 treated pieces of poles and piling, 90. 000 of which w ill be purchased through the Portland office. Two-hundred and fifteen m il lion feet of soft wood plywood w ill be purchased through the Portland Office. Duncan said that the above purchases were for woods pro- d u e t i materials required for m ilitary needs and that be would continue his efforts for increased purchases of Pacific Northwest lumber. On July 28, Congressman Dun can wrote to President Johnson "urging that the Defense De partment be im m ediately in structed to make lumber and wood product purchases only in the United Staten—at least until such time as prices of plywood and dimension lumber stabilize." Commenting on the purchase order today, Duncan said, "Al though there is no immediate and aim pie sol ution to the. prob- lems In the housing industry, I believe that these purchases w ill h elp firm up our woods products' industries. I w ill continue to press for tncreased-purchases by the Federal Government of Pa c i f i c "Northwest lumber pro ducts." _____________ - DELEGATE Thursday, October 6, 1966 All District 2CJ school stu dents w ill enjoy a day off next Friday, October 14, so that teach ers m ay get in some instruction at an In-Service Day.

Deer Opening Tabbed Good Oregon buck hunters scored well on the opening weekend of the general deer season ac cording to reports from biolog ists around the state. From all areas the reports indicate hunt e r success either about equal o r above that of last year. West-Side hunters found fa ir going in most areas. They were handicapped by dry conditions Saturday morning, but rains Saturday afternoon and evening improved hunter success on Sunday. R e p o r t s show about one-half as many hunters in the area as last year. In portions of Linn and Lane counties the report Is good, with hunters enjoying better s u c c e s s than last year. The Mosby Creek drainage was es pecially productive. Along the north coast, biologists report hunter pressure down about one-third with hunter success equal to a year ago. Hunters In southwest Oregon reported slow hunting with a reported take of about 6%. The best hunting was reported from the Douglas County area. As expected, the best hunting was experienced in the north east through much of W allowa, Union, Baker, G rant, and Uma tilla counties. Hunting pres sure was spread throughout and generally lighter than a vear ago. The buck take was ex cellent. Hunting pressure was down in much of the southeast, but these hunters enjoyed better success than expected. Deposits Higher In response to the U . S. Com ptroller of the C urrency’ s quarterly statement of con dition ca ll, F irs t National Bank of Oregon has released th ird - quarter deposit, loan and total resource figures which exceed those for any comparable date in the bank’ s 101-year history. The Port O rford Branch of F irs t National reported de posits of $2,963,959.68 and loans outstanding of $946,646.36 on the call date, according to Manager G. B. Rush. Comparable totals for the branch a year ago were $ 2 ,- 804,643.71 in deposits and some $1,234,239.86 in loans. Senate Adds Oregon Funds This week the Senate Approp riation! Comm ittee added one m illion dollars to the proposed budget for public works in Ore gon. Senator Wayne Morse ( D .- Cre. ), stated that this amount far Lost Creek Reservoir in J ack- son County, and Siuslaw River and Bar in Lane County, total ed one eighth of the new money added for all public works pro jects in the United States. Morse said: "After a series of conferences which I undertook w i t h Senator Ellender, Chair man of the Senate Public Works Appropriation Sub-Committee, stressing the merits of these two Oregon projects which were by passed in the budget and by the House Appropriation Commit tee, Ellender strongly supported 500 thousand dollars for each project for fiscal year 1967. " The Oregon Senator pointed out that Senator E.lender not only carried this amount far Oregon in the Sub-Committee, but held the increase in the full a p p r o p r i a t i o n s com m ittee, chaired by Senator Cari Hay den of Arizona.The total amount added to the budget for new start construction for all of Un ited States was only eight m il lion dollara-M arse added, "while it is expected that early action by the Senate w ill approve this f u l l amount, it still must be held in conference between the House and Senate. The House of Representatives bill passed the House without one cent for these two meritorious project in Ore gon, and I w ill continue to con fer with the Senate Conferees when appointed, as w ell as dis cuss this matter with the leader ship in the House in a final ef fort to keep this increased ap propriation for new start public works construction in Oregon.
