Fag t Eocene Register-Guard, Wednesday, Dec. 13, 1144 Plans For Post-War Survey Worked Out ' Procedure for obtaining an ac curate and exhaustive survey of Lane county's poat-war private re sources was worked out Tuesday evening by the Central Lane Plan ning eoundl'a committee for the survey of private resources and officials of the Bonneville Power administration, who are coopera ting in the study. The meeting was held at Bonneville. Rogers Kimberling, chairman of the survey committee, who pre sided at the meeting, announced that the power administration in the next month will assign one of its men to study Lane county's economic resources. The first draft report of this economist, Kimberling said, will be turned over to the Central Lane Planning council and will provide .the basis for a detailed study by men expert in various county in dustries who will work closely with the council on revision of the material. Dr. Wesley Ballaine, of the uni versity school of business admin istration, will make whatever changes the council deems neces sary in the Bonneville report, Kimberling stated. Any changes, he emphasized, which will be made only on material based upon specialized local knowledge, of the industry concerned and the out look for it. Warren D. Smith, head of the university geology department, will handle the mining and physi cal base of the survey, Kimberling revealed. After the review by the Central Lane council, with the desired changes, the study will be re turned to the Bonneville power administration for release and dis tribution which, will probably take about four months, Kimberling stated.
