Daring This Reason.
FALEM. Or- April S. (Special.)
Rigid observance of provisions of the
state forestry laws will be demanded
this rear, according to a conclusion
teacbed today by the State Board of
'oretry In session here.
While the whole detailed plan will
not be completed by the forester for
several days, enough was discussed In
a general way to show that the Board
Intends to clamp down tight a policy
of lire prevention which will be founded
on a rigid prosecution of all offenders.
Last year the Board was In Its In
fant stage and organization was by
no means perfect nor the work done
thoroughly effective, although with
lark of organisation the report of
tRo Board showed minimum comptri
tire Ore loss. The first year's cam
paign of the Board was conducted
largely along the lines of education.
This year wherever It la shown that
edocatlon has been a failure coercion
win be the rule.
Waraees te Be Desjblrd.
Lastvyear there were but 51 warden
In the field. This year there will be
14 or more. Thta Increase will be
largely aided by the Federal appropria
tion act.
Burning of slashings without permit
and other Infringements of the Oregon
law will meet with prompt proseeutlon
and actual demonstration on the part
of the forester and the Board that no
half-way measures will be tolerated.
An Informad discussion waa also In
dulged In today along the lines of
securing at the earliest possible mo
ment an exchange of scattered school
sections for a central state forest re
serve. While the Board has no man
ner of bringing about enforcement of
this end that It desires. It will brlns
to bear what Influence It has as a
Board to secure sanction of the Gov
ernment for th plan.
rigM Be 'Waged.
While brought up In discussion only.
It Is certain that a fight will be waged
In the Best Legislature to secure not
only an increased appropriation for the
Forestry Board, but some salient
changes In the law will be proposed.
The present Board haa a biennial ap
propriation of ItO.OOO or 130.000. an
nually for the two years.
The next session will be asked for
a biennial appropriation of 1100.000 or
150.000 annually for th two years- Just
what changes In the aVw will be asked
for Is uncertain now. But members of
the Board and the State Forester
charge that the law Is loosely drawn;
that It Is by no means wholly satis
factory and that material Improvement
mar be made in it at the next session.
Those, present at the meeting today
were Pan P. Smythe. Tendleton;
George H. Cecil. Portland: George W.
Peary. Forest Grove; I. S. Hill. Cot

sistant State Forester Selcke and Gov

CIRCULARS SEXT TO EAST TO
KEEP AWAY COLONISTS.
Labor Leaders Say Knock" Intend'
ed as Rebuke to Council for Fail
ure to Pass 8-Hour Ordinance. -
MEDFORD. Or.. April S. (Special.)
Citizens and "boosters" or Medford and
the Rogue River Valley awoke Friday
morning to learn that the Labor "Cnlon
Council had Issued a circular intended
to keep away both the Investor and
farmer, craftsman and laborer. The
circulars came back to Medford from
the Middle West and stirred cltlzena
and business men to demand at once a
thorough Investigation by the Com
mercial Club and Business Men's Asso
ciation, asking that every union in the
city be put on record regarding Its
stand In the matter.
Union officials of the city Friday de
clared that the issuance of the circular
was contrary to their wishes; that It
was distributed without a referendum
vote of the Central Labor Council,
thereby making it Illegal; that many
of the -union men did not know that
It had boen Issued; that the "knock"
was Intended as a rebuke to the city
for the failure of the Council to pass
the eight-hour ordinance, and that the
I. W. W. and Socialist wing of the La
bor Council were the backers and pro
moters or tne circulars.
The facts in the case are these:
That a committee was appointed by
the Labor Council to frame the circular
and that a draft was read In the coun
cil by D. C: White, a carpenter and So
cialist candidate for Councilman at the
last city election. Union men at this
time ' objected so strenuously to the
circular that its particularly violent
parts were eliminated.
Union members also say that the
.t..uiBt u-ttf itifthrl throiin-h the Coun
cil and that they had no time to con
sider lta points.
