Then we'll smash them through."
The reason given by Itepresenta
tlve .lames Kckersley, Clackamas, for
starting the opposition to further
passage of bills was that "the gover
nor Rent Harry Boivin a message to
get the appropriation bills through as
soon aa possible and the move for ad- j
Journment. That would kill our bills ;
automatically." j
Eckersley said that "if the ways !
and means committee won't play ball!
with us I am going to take to the i
floor."
The senate passed two bills, ap-1
preprinting funds for the university of

- maintenance of Doernbecber hospital
for children.
The senate, without record vote,
defeated the move to Increase the
maximum truck load limits frum 5J,
000 to 08,000 pounds. The measure
would have Increased the length of
trucks on the state's highways. Op
position to the bill was strong from
the highway department.
During the pant week the senate
passed the anti-discriminatory trade
bill, patterned after the Itobinson
Patinan federal act of 1035, but the
measure was meeting with difficulties

PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 10. (Spe
cial) Formulation of fire legislation
or regulation that will lead to correc
tive burning in grazing and agricul
tural areas, and classification of In nils
ao that they may he put to the most
efficient uae, are recommended os
means of solving pressing problems of
Isnd use in Curry county, in a report,
"Investigation of Iand Use In Curry
County," completed by the Oregon
state planning board.
The report was prepared at the re
quest of the 108.1 legislature. Compila
tion of data and Information in the re
port was tinder the direction of W. A.
Srheonfrld, chairman of tho Curry
county land use committee appointed
by the board. Other members of this
rommlttee were C, J. Buck, board
member, snd Sinclair A. Wilson and
John B. Yeon.
Amendment of existing atate laws
authorising the creation of districts
within counties, such ns rural fire pro
tection, irrigation, diking, weed con
trol and others, would provide the legal
instrumentality necessary to put a
land use program into effect, compil
ers of the report euggested.
A vital need at present Is an edu
cational program that will result In a
common understanding between fire
officials snd fsrmers as to what con
stitutes a deslreahle burning practice,
tie report points out. Testimony of
fered at public bearings held at (.old
Reach, and in other data included in
the report, bears out this statement,
writers said..
rssential featurea of a corrective
burning program, held to he of utmost
importance, wero listed aa;
Participation of local officials in
granting of permits.
the vicinity of towns and special scenic
ureas.
"Any changes In fire legislation de
signed to accomplish a more rapid de
velopment in agricultural areas should
not be so sweeping that timber or rec
reation interests will be Injured," the
report soya. "Proposed changes In leg
islation should be pointed toward full
development of all land resources on a
fair and equal basis."
An orderly development of potential
grating land should materially increase
the agricultural income of Curry
county and widen and itpprove the tax
baae, tho report declares. Statistics
included show that of privately owned
land in Curry county, 42 per cent ap
pears to he better suited to grating
nnd agriculture than tn forestry. At
the present time only Is per cent of
privately nvyied land I used aa non-
forest lsnd.
Study of dsta and testimony pre
sented shows that recurrent fires dur
ing tho past ,10 years have resulted in
Increasing rather than decreasing
brush and weed growth on range land.
Repeated burning of the lsnd cover
sppears undesirable from both for
estry and grazing viewpoints, writers
of the report conclude.
T.and classification such as Is sug
gested in the report should be followed
by private and public agencies aa a
guide to further agricultural settle
ment and development, to indicate
areaa in which county-owned lands
should not he soli) for agricultural use,
and aa a basis for development of pub
lic facilities such as schools, rosds and

SPEAKING for myself and 16,000
other Buick workmen we're mighty
glad to be back on the job! It's been
tough to stand by, knowing how eager
thousands of people w ere to get one of
these great cars. And it's a grand feel
ing now to see the wheels turning and
the line rolling, and to watch those
big, handsome babies pouring out reg.
ular as clockwork! There's power in
them, and style, and comfort -and
when you see them made, like I Ao,
you know they're packed with good,
honest workmanship as well as top
notch engineering. We're proud of
those Buicks, and the way you've
taken to them, and we're going to
get yours to you as quick as we can.
