Bill for O&C Access Roads Meets Trouble WASHINGTON VP) - A $700, 000 program for access roads in the O&C timber lands of Oregon has run into opposition to a House Appropriations Subcommittee. This was indicated Tuesday in testimony made public by the sub committee. Opposition is based on criticism of the present law whereby coun ties in which the timber land is located receive 75 per cent of the timber sale receipts. The remain der goes to the government. Ti:e House committee rejected a similar request for access road money last year, but an appro priation was granted by the Sen ate and remained in the compro mise bill worked out by Senate and House coMerees. When congressmen renewed their objections tuts year, Marion 6i wson, Bureau o' Land Man agement director, pointed out that bills now are pending v both the House and Senate to splM the O it C revenues evenly between the counties and government. He said the Bureau would rec ommend amending these bills to provide for repayment of all gov ernment operation and mainte nance costs before the 50-50 split is made. Clawson said the government has not actually lost money under the present division as the 25 per cent government cut has totaled more thaji yearly appropriations.
