The overall deal is said to reach the f 100 million mark. Principal item sold was the Coos Bay Lumber Co. to the Georgia-Pa cific Corporation (or an estimated $70 mil lion. The shipping lines owned by Dant and Russell are being sold to Jack Dant for i re ported $16 million: Left for further disposal re the Fir-Tex plant at St. Helens, certain lumber remanufacturing plants and a lumber marketing organization. Announcement that the big mill at Coos . Bay would resume operations after the vaca tion period, on July 17, brought relief to Cons Bay, where fears had been expressed that the mill might be closed. How was the purchase financed by Georgia Pacific? The Wall Street Journal quotes 0. It Cheatham, president, as saying it was financed in part through private placement of $11 mil lion of 15-year four and a quarter convertible subordinated debentures, and by long-term bank loans geared to the harvesting of the ac quired timber and sales of a portion of the, timber under guaranteed rutting contracts. This indicates that C P will sell parts of the big stand of timber It has acquired in the deal. The Coos Bay Times whose reporter, Stan MarUndale, dug into rumors and came up with the first report of the pending transaction, attributes this adventure in "modern capital ism" to the suspicion that the Coos Bay Lum ber Co.'s timber inventory, of 3.S billion feet wss faulty, making the going price of $130 per share out of line. After a recruise, the -deal was negotiated on the basis of $305 per hare. According to the Times, the cruise . showed the company had nearer six billion feet, "making this one of the largest private timber holdings In the world." Publicity on the sale, however, referred to "four billion feet of timber." (All this has excited the In terest of count v officials of Coos county who " may turn in bills for back taxes over the past five years on the ground of failure to assess properly).

Success of Tree Farms Prompts Thoughts Of Releasing Some Federal Forest Lands By a. ROBERT RMtTH fttaletmM Crreaa4eat WASHINGTON - The sympa thetic attitude of the Department of the Interior toward some sort of plan to dis- n pose of some " J federal forests 1 end gratia f J lands was spell- f ed nut in more I . detail this wees r . - by Edward i Woozley, direc- 1 tor of the Bu- reaa of Land Management. Woozley said be thinks t b e success of privately operated tree farms has done much to warrant a reatudy of the comparative ef fectiveness of government vs. private ownership of western public lands. "If it can be demonstrated that the private Industry tree-farm, can and will provide higher stan dards of efficiency in forest man agement than federal forestry programs." declared Wooiley, ''the Impact upon public thinking would be tremendous."

"Much of the enthusiasm for public ownership of forest lands has arisen In general from the belief that the public interest It better served when such lands were retained in public owner ship." said Woozley. "It Is my hope and belief that the tree farm program will demonstrate that the public interest can aim be well served where forest lands are privately owned.

The State Highway Commission oper ate! the ferries, but according to the A-B its three ferries are not adequate to handle the traffic on summer weekends. Washington state is building a road from Knappton to Megler which will give a more direct connec tion from up-river points and add to the num ber of cars seeking to cross the Columbia. The A-B wants to know whit the solution should be: one or two more big ferries or a bridge? From a cost standpoint the former, would appear to be the answer. Recalling a long wait for a ferry one Labor Day on the Wash ington shore we can sympathize with the de mand for expanded service. The coast route Is very popular in summer months and merits good service for the crossing of the Columbia. If that is reasonably prompt, tourists find the ferry crossing a real adventure, much more exciting than spinning across on a bridge. . Dairymen may lie abed in the morning as long as millhands and statehouse workers if they accept the findings of the Ruakua Ani mal Research station in New Zealand. The station carried on for two years studying milk production where the milking was done at regular 12-hour Intervals or at intervals of 8 and of 16 hours. The tests showed that the latter time schedule caused no loss of milk or butterfat production, even when applied to high producing cows. This system would permit one milking after 8 in the morning and the other at 4 o'clock, before supper. We know this sounds like heresy; and doubt if it will be generally accepted by dairymen. For one thing it knocks out their argument against daylight saving. Those who saw the All-Star baseball game Tuesday at Washington or on television, got their money's worth in the array of talent displayed, especially of powerful hitters. They were rewarded with four home-runs as Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals and Willie Mays of the Cisnts belted out one each to help the Nationals win, and as Ted Williams of the Red Sox snd Mickey Mantle of the Yankees got one each for the Americans. Home runs are crowd pullers (which may be one reason they don't put a little more weight in the ball). Ever since the days of Babe Ruth, king of swat, hitters have been, trying to match his record of 60 home runs in a season. Mickey Mantle was on his way this year, until a minor Injury slowed him up. The July crop forecast of the department of agriculture shows a decrease in the esti mates for wheat but an increase for corn, compared with a year ago. The wheat crop estimate is 922.262.000 bu., while last year s production was 936.761.000 bu. and the ten year (1945-54) average was 1,148.289.000 bu. For corn the estimate is 3.266.688,000 bu. which Is higher than the 1955 crop of 3.241, 536.000 bu. and much higher than the 3,084, 000,000 ten-year average. The aim has been to bring the wheat crop below 900,000.000 bu. .and corn below three billion bushels, in order to halt the build up of surpluses. Improved cultivation and mors use of fertilizer increas es yields per acre so the acreage cuts do not bring the production cuts that are hoped for. Prospects for tree fruits in southern Ore gon are reported good, according to the Med ford Mail Tribune, quoting the county horti-' culturist The year's D'Anjou pear crop is ex pected to be the biggest in years, and the same for the peach crop. Other pear varie ties, Bartlett, Bosc and Cornice are producing somewhat less than last year. With fruit crops in Washnigton reduced by the winter's freez ing weather, Oregon orchardists should en counter a good market this year. However, this Is not true about Milton-Freewater where the 1955 freeze killed trees as well as fruit buds. Senator Morse must be saving up his voice for the Oregon campaign. He has been unusu ally silent in recent weeks. However, his col league, Sen. Neuberger, his been a loquacious substitute, quoting from the surgeon general on the use of a certain heart drug, accusing Ike of remaining silent on the school bill fight, and spanking Oregon for not distribut ing surplus foods to needy families. You have to give it to Dick for being versatile. He cov ers most all the bases. tree farm practices 6f about the tame standard, there may he greater advantage in developing coordinated management plans than can be gained by change of ownership. This approach ap pears to be especially de sirable where the federal lands are reasonably well grouped for practical management and only the choicer portions of the group would he attractive - to private ownership. In some such cases the choice tracts ot a group might well prove to be key tracts which, if removed from the group, would render federal man agement of the remainder more costly and much more difficult. Under those circumstances 1 feel that classifying public domain forrat lands for disposal would not produce desirable results un less the entire group of federal lands could be purchased Or selected."

I would like to take exception to your statement In your column lhat the Democrats are resorting to hindsight in their criticism ot the 45 percent surtax and the resulting $20,000,000 surplus.-The files of your own newspaper will show the tax law was fought by the Democrats during its incep tion on precisely the same ground H Is now being criticized. Name ly, that a 45 per cent surtax and a reduction of the personal ex emption and dependency credit were not needed In order to pro duce sufficient revenue and that the purpose of these measures was to force a sales tax by mak ing the tax load unbearable. ' The second installment of taxes due under this Republican grind ing tax law will be due on July 15. Let the taxpayers remember the Democrats had a tax pro gram which called for a 30 per cent surtax with no reduction in the personal exemption and de pendency credit. The difference to individual taxpayers amounts, on an average, to about $20 00 on each $100 00 of taxes paid. The' Democratic tax program would have raised the revenue seeded by the state; to go beyond that is, at best, fiscal irresponsibility. In the light of the above, I doubt if people look upon this surplus as such a "blessing" when most of them needed this extra money to meet today's ris ing costs of living. , ' The British Parliament in 1774 passed the "Intolerable Acta" for the purpose, as they conceived it, of teaching the colonies a lesson.

To the Editor: May I reply to a forum letter submitted by Marion L. Bronson boosting Wayne Morse and slap ping at Doug McKay and his candidacy for U.S. Senator. Branson's letter like so many others who try by "letters to the editor" to crucify McKay and "blow the horn" for Morse, isn't specific in Us criticism of Mr. McKay. Actually, Woody Smith of Hood River ' was the only Democrat seeking this office at he attempt ed to show, for Morse has just lately served notice that should the Democratic Party not be consistent with his philosophy that he would also "bunch" them. It's certainly no secret that Morse shouldered hit way into the Democratic Party after see ing that he was getting absolutely nowhere as an independent while at the same and in the process was walking over the toes of other qualified and capable Dem ocrats, any of whom would add prestige to Oregon in the nation's capital over Morse. So now the Democrats have.no choice but to vote for Wayne Morse if they vole a straight ticket as many of them will casting their vote for a poor second-hand Republican outcast. Morse's record after nearly 12 years in the Senate will, with the approach of the November elec tions, soon be more and more publicized. It is going to be some what embarrassing to many of his loudest supporters when his record of "accomplishments" are shown. Douglas McKay, on the other hand, is an ardent backer of the administration, and President Eisenhower's sdministration and what it has accomplished and is trying to gain for the people of this nation needs no explanation to those who keep themselves reasonably informed. Oregon has two administration foes now occupying its Senate teats. With the re-election of Ike (which is held highly probable tvn by Democrats) Oregon needs Doug McKay. t'nlike Morse and Nueberger, McKay will "do" a good job not just "talk" it. Rronson's letter says McKay "fell down" on his first job in Washington. That of course is Bronson's opinion and the opin ion of administration foes gen erally. In conclusion may I say that the people of Oregon always know where McKay stands on the im portant issues forthcoming no body knows, not even Democrats what Morse wilt do ever! The people know Doug McKay and have elected him before, and Democrats and Republicans will elect him again this November Respectfully submitted, Joe H.

'This spending for education was not the grand total for the United States. In 1951 there was spent for private elementary and secondary schools $1,191,112,000 and for private higher institutions of learning $1,017,208,000. The sums keep increasing yearly.

MADSEN fFarra Editor, The Statesman A new worry appeared on the horizon of raspberry and logan berry growers Thursday. F. P. Larson, entomologist at the Ore gon State Department of Agricul ture, asked the berry growers to be on the lookout for a micro scopic mite 'and . a small while worm. While neither haa yet been found in fruit fields here, Larson urged the growers to be on the lookout for them and lo notify the depart ment of agriculture as soon as any are noticed. They are now doing considerable damage to logan berries and raspberries in Western Washington. Small Warm ' The worm Is described as about a half-inch long, white and with a black head. It has been officially listed as the Western Raspberry Fruit Worm. The mite, listed aa the Dry Berry Mite, is recognizable when logan berries drv uo and turn brown before ripening. Growers who find the loganberries drying up for reasons other than lack of mois ture and fertilizer should inform the department at once, Larson states, so that the fruit can- be checked for the Dry Berry Mite. Dlffrreat Peat The raspberry fruit worm is said to be different from the Orange Tortrex which has been giving G r e s h a m raspberry growers trouble for a number of years, and which appeared to quite an extent in the Salem area in the 1955 fruit season. However, here the j larva was more troublesome to the i Boysen berry growers than to the raspberries. Don L.
