Committee Frowns On Income Questions WASHINGTO, March 13 OP) The senate commerce committee approved, 9 to 7, today a resolu tion suggesting that questions re garding personal income be dele ted from the 1940 census. The committee approved the proposal, sponsored by Senator Tobey (R-NH), after rejecting a milder substitute suggested by Senator Maloney (D-Conn). Tobey's resolution would ex press "the sense of the senate" that the income questions should not be asked. Maloney proposed a resolution suggesting that the cen sus bureau "reconsider" the quer ies and that it be "authorized" to eliminate them if it thought advis able. Maloney's proposal was de feated by a vote of 9 to 8. Elkton Notes ' '0. Th, Old Quaker Co., - , ""Chum Indiana North Fork News Of Week Reported NORTH FORK, March 13.

The , alder, a small, compara tively short-lived tree, which grows in creek bottoms, is an im portant part of the forest crop in the Siuslaw area, since coniferous trees have been almost completely burned out in some portions. In the old Nestucca burn (1853) and in other parts of the Hebo ranger district which have burned many times, it is practically the only advanced timber crop. The alder, growing along creek beds, has survived and increased, in some places encroaching upon land where Douglas fir and other coniferous trees were native. Log ging began shortly before the war with small portable mills, Mr. Aufderheidt related. In 1337 there were two perma nent mills representing an invest ment in Tillamook county of about $40,000. They arc now oper ating under a timber management plan which will eventually de velop Into a sustained yield pro gram. Forester Aufderheidt believes that the alder areas can be log ged every 20 years on a sustained yield basis, thus giving the mills now existing a permanent status. The trees live from 60 to 80 years. Studies of the growth of alder, control of its chief enemy, the tent caterpillar, and other phases of alder logging are being made by the forest service. New Mil!
