NE Ml YIELD PLAN URGED (Continued from Page 1) many years and declared that in every yearsinee 1925, save for 1929, the lumber industry had lost money. He graphically illustrated how the burden of taxes fire pa trol and i interest had .made it unprofitable to hold timber with the result that much timber was being rushed to the market at ex tremely low prices. The heart of improving the condition of the lumber industry is to provide a sounder method of carrying Urn ber, he declared. Eccles said he favored a com pensated tax plan evolved by the forestry school In preference to socialization of all timber and its ownership by the federal or state governments. He admitted the latter plan might some day be adopted. He scored the federal government for its original policy of subjecting timber to private exploitation in the same method that it had handled public lands which later became tillable. Timber Always to Be State's Basic Industry -; Eccles declared - that timber must always be basic in Oregon's economy since 82 per cent of the state was not suitable to farm ing operations. He sketched a second basic problem of the northwest the disposition of its wheat holdings Of a normal crop of 80.000,000 bushels, SO to 75 per cent of the wheat has been sold in foreign markets, be said. With overpro duction abroad, the. rise., of tar iffs and of trading quotas, the export market has been curtailed Eccles said the emergency export corporation using the process tax for revenues, had been able to market' the unmanageable north west wheat surplus of 1933 while drouth had temporarily bandied the problems in the succeeding years. He said he knew . of no sure remedy for the situation he said a 60 per cent reduction in acreage would allow the north west to sell most of Its wheat domestically but deemed this "so lution" not practical. - Letting domestic wheat prices find a low level and thus making wheat sales - abroad, without subsidy, feasible, would dispose of the northwest's surplus, he said,- but he opined that no political admin lstratlon would be strong enough to embark on such a program. Eccles was Introduced by George Riches, local; bank cash ier. .- - Permit for Lunch Trailer is Given " The city council last night un officially granted , Georg Gray permission to operate, a trailer lunch wagon near the corner of High and Ferry streets pending such time as an ordinance may be prepared and. offered to the council on the. matter.

Phoenix-like there would rise a more suitable build ing for the future. "We are going to build a. structure suitable for the- generations which may con gregate here it years from to day," the governor declared. He then painted his dreams for Oregon's development to his audi ence eastern Oregon- grazing land utilized, the Rogue river ter ritory made a sportsman's para dise for the world, the coast ter ritory developed and the. Willam ette valley made as productive as U Holland which, with no more territory than the valley supports six times the population of Ore gon. . .: , . .
