Hunters get blamed for a lot of things Fires started during hunting seasons tend to tie called hunter fires Vandalism during the fall is often attrihuted to hunters In at least one documented instance a landowner with a grudge against his neighbor shot the neighbor's cow, knowing it would be blamed on hunters Unfortunately, some hunters are vandals, litterbugs, poachers, and poor citizens They are the one biggest threat to Ihe future of hunting in the United States today Lim ited manpower for law enforcement means that the odds w ill always tie fa irly long against the poacher vandal-cheat getting caught Long, that is, unless the honest sportsman, the one with everything to lose, begins to shoulder a lot of the respon sibility for liringing illegal and improper behavior in the field to an end Oregon has more than -MMJ.OOO licensed hunters and over 730.000 licensed anglers For many of these people, the outdoors is a way of life and they are hunting, fishing, or engaging in some other outdoor activity many days out of the year W hen someone breaks the law afield, the odds are good that somebody, not necessarily a law enforcement officer, w ill see it or know about it These are the folks who can effectively put the heat on the outlaw element Last year the National Rifle Association kicked off the "H elp Our W ildlife" (HOW) program II enlisted the help of state w ildlife and law enforcement agencies to distribute w allet sized report cards on which the law abiding sportsman can conveniently jot down the details of a witnessed or suspected law violation Then the information can be turned over to state police for follow up This year the Izaak Walton League joined the effort as a joint sponsor and had another, slightly expanded report card printed The W ildlife Commission has a supply of both styles of report card which are available free to individuals or in quantity to sportsmen's groups Both cards fit conveniently into pocket or wallet Both offer reminders of what details — personal descriptions, vehicle or Ixial make, color, and license, etc — need to tic recorded for use by the police The cards are no in convenience to carry and may easily make the difference in getting a law violator convicted To obtain copies of the free report cards, write or call the Oregon W ildlife Commission, P.

S tu d y s u g g es ts c a m p f e e h ik e ED ITO R 'S NOTE: The following article is a study in economics of overnight camp ing on the Oregon coastline. The findings and recom mendations of the authors are applicable to the numerous campsites within the Mt. Ilood domain. Cam ping out can be an inexpensive way of getting back to nature Eor about 2 dollars you can cook outdoors and relax at one of the 4.000 o vernig ht public cam psites along Oregon's coast. Sound too good to be true’ It may be. "Tw o dollars per campsite is less than 40 per cent of the cost of operating and maintaining overnight campsites.” says Herbert Stoevener. professor of a g ric u ltu ra l and resource economics at Oregon State University. Stoevener and graduate student Steve R e ilin g are researching the economics of p u b lic ly provided cam ping facilities along Oregon’s coast, a project sponsored by the OSU Sea Grant College Program and the OSU A g ric u ltu ra l Experiment Station According to Stoevener, the annual cost of p ro vid in g a campsite is about $600; the government pays more than 60 per cent of that cost Although the State of Oregon and the Forest Service are not concerned with recovering the full cost of providing facilities through user fees, Stoevener questions whether the amount of government subsidy applied to campground facilities is an efficient use of Oregon taxes. " I t costs the State of Oregon much more to provide over night facilities than what they charge the c a m p e r." says Stoevener. “ And since many campers are middle or upper income persons, the subsidy may be inconsistent with the social goal of a more equitable income distribution.” He explains that lower in come families may actually be paying part of the recreation bill for higher income persons According to Stoevener, the price of overnight campsites has stayed at 2 dollars to avoid pricing lower income families oul of public campgrounds But Stoevener says that ca m p ground studies show that most persons who use o vernight campsites fall in middle or upper income bracket The price of an overnight campsite is usually a small par, of the cost of person's entire trip, he adds "Users may eventually have to pay for a larger proportion of the facilities they enjoy," says Stoevener "T his w ill reduce the (train on tax dollars." "Less than one-third of the population of Oregon uses campground facilities,” says Reiling "E ig h t to ten per cent of the population may be more re a lis tic " A ccording to Reiling. that means a small percentage of the population eight to ten per Cadet completes first y ia r Ronald T lle w itt, son of M r and Mrs Wallace H Hewitt of Houle 3 Sandy, has completed his freshman year at the U S. Coast Guard Academy in New London. Conn Cadet Hewitt, a 1974 graduate from Sandy Union High School, w ill take par, in two training cruises this summer cent enjoys facilities provided by taxes from a large per ventage of the population R e ilin g also learned that about h a lf the o vernig ht facilities are occupied by out- of state persons who do no; pay Oregon taxes Because tourists don’ t c o n trib u te to the governm ent subsidy to the same extent as Oregonians, the 2 d o lla r’ rate tourists pay is a c tu a lly less than what Oregonians pay. In addition, Reiling says the2 d o lla r ra te has a negative impact on the private camp- ground industry. " U n lik e g o v e rn ment operated campgrounds, operators of privately provided campgrounds have to he able to recover a ll of the costs associated with providing the s e rv ic e s ," says R eiling . Without a subsidy it is d ifficu lt for the private sector to offer com parable services and comparable rates Raising the price of goods or services often raises eyebrows as welt.
