THE MORNING OREGONIAN. FRIDAY. OCTOnrn n.'-mii ll - FORESTER GRAVES PUNS OREGON AID Agricultural Problem of Today Is in Logged-off Land, Says Official. OLYMPIC TRIP EYE-OPENER Speaking Before Business and Tim bernien of City, Chier of Forest Service Outlines Flans for Pro l motion of Pacific Northwest. "The real agricultural problem of Oregon today is in the logged-ofE lands which are lying idle "because they are inaccessible or are held at prices pro hibitive for the settler whose only capital is his strength and pioneer spirit," declared Henry S. Graves, of Washington, D. C, chief of the United States Forest Service, in a. stirring ad dress before the Progressive Business Men's Club and a "hundred or more timber and lumber men of Portland, who gathered at luncheon at the Mult nomah Hotel yesterday. After the chairman of the day, Wil liam L. Wheelwright, had Introduced W. If. Galvini, who made a plea for world-wide peace, Mr. Wheelwright in troduced Mr. Graves, who has Just re turned from a visit to the Olympic peninsula, where he investigated the National forest conditions in the Olym pic Mountains. His address is the first announcement of his plans for the Pacific Northwest states, which will be put before his chief in Washington and later before Congress. He spoke in part as follows: I have just returned from a personal visit to the Olympic peninsula. Tho thin which Impressed mo most was not merely the vast extent of timber resource or the possibil ities for a great industrial development, but the magnitude of the work which is es sential to lay the foundations for such de velopment. Much of the region is a. vast wilderness and the very first step is to de velop means of transportation. Plan Outlined to Benefit Northwest, In the Olympic National forest there are vast timber resources aggregating over 30, O0O.00O.uu0 feet, but much of it is not avail able for Immediate sale under present cou oitlons without great sacrifice of public in terests. Nevertheless, it seems to me that a plan may be devised by which the Olymphlc National forest may aid now in the great work of developing that section, without sacrificing tiie purposes for which it was established. The plan I would pro pose, and it applies to certain other forests 1 also, is the following: Congress has recognized the principle that tne national rorests shall contribute direct ly to the development of the local com munities. This is not only in giving first consideration to iocai interests in the ad ministration and use of the resources, but Congress actually appropriates Uo per cent of the gross receipts from the forests for tne bene lit of schools and roads, and an additional 20 per cent for roads in the forests for general public needs. This plan works admirably where it is possible to utilize the resources now. No tieneral Legislation Proposed. I do not propose uny general legislation or general appropriation. Particularly, am not advocating any general Federal aid in highway construction. I propose rather talcing a given development unit as a county or group or counties witnin wiucn a National forest stands, and securing now. on the ba- i of the public timber resources, an ad vance to be covered by receipts which it can be shown will certainly come in later. The money to be used now in constructing yeuiiic puduc improvements. Oregon's Real Problems Viewed. The real agricultural problem in this state Is in the logged-off lands which are todav lying idle because they are inaccessible or are neia at prices prohibitive for the set tler whose only capital is his strength and pioneer spirit. While it will not solve the whole problem, at least the development of roaus in tnese regions will be the first step toward getting people on these lands to build homes and develon farms. We regard the recreation use of these Torest regions as a natural resource which noum oe developed. The building of high ways through the Cascade Mountains will .not only connect farming communities with a market and open up our forests for'greater viae, but will make available one of the grannest scenic regions or the whole world. I cannot pass this eublect without mention. lng the public service that is being done by Mr. Wemme In his efforts to develop the Barlow road, and the efforts of other public spirited men who are giving their time and money for similar projects, Tn carrying out such a programme as I suggest the support of the local communities is essential. Without It nothing can be done. Whether my suggested plan is exactly the one which will succeed remains to be seen. But this, or a similar plan, is the way m which the public property must be made to do its part. It will not be done by tearing -..v.i iue ioreM3 ana ariving the Govern ment out oi the state, as some today are proposing. Mr. Galvini, secretary of the Oregon Peace Society, safd that owing to the time limit he could not deliver the speech he had in his mind, bur mnfin himself to a few remarks on the great bLiuBKie in wnicn Europe is now en paged, without going into the details of the horrors, without describing the desolation to homes and devastation to property and industry, and without go ing into the staggering figures showing the economic aspect of this greatest of all wars In the history of civiliza tion. He confined himself to a protest against this legalized destruction of life and property, and satd the abilition of the armament rings and the sources of their dividends will make a reduction in the armies and navies of the world possible and universal peace among na tions then would be realized. which showed that large numbers of receipts are missing. The young man was a trusted em ploye and it is alleged that his defal cations have been carried on for more than a year, at all times carefully cov ered up- In fact, it was only a slip which let the officials of the company know there were any Irregularities and when Kilgore first was arrested the deficit was thought to be only $59, this being the only amount of short age showing on the books. ELKS TO BE BIG BROTHERS Baker Lodge to Give Special Atten tion to Boys In Community. BAKER, Or., Oct. 8. (Special.)

(Special.) tJ'H; f 0re' ma"er of the Baker Paekin Company, will go before the next Baker County grand jury on a char of embexilement from his firm to the extent or more than J1000.

Daughter of a Nation-famous orater, once a Portland school girl and now considered one of tho brightest feminine stars in vaudeville, Edith Corley has re turned to the scenes of her child hood as that Quaint character "The Eel" in "Smithy and the Eel" at Pantagres this week. It may be of added interest to' note that "Smithy and the Eel" was produced for Pantages cir cuit by Howard Russell, former Baker player who made a name here for himself as the leading Juvenile and incidental producer for the popular stock company. Miss Corley's father is Oliver T. Erickson, Seattle Councilman, and who has achieved National fame as a single tax orator. In her girlhood days.
