The curve In question is known as the Meier's corner on the road beyond the girls' industrial school. A high bluff shuts off the view from either way and this bluff is to be cut down and the road wid ened. The bluff will be cut down sufficiently so an unobstructed view will be given of the road In either direction. The dirt taken from the bluff will be used to widen out the right-of-way. County En glneer Hubbs today made arrange. ments with William J. Meier, own er of the land, to permit the digging to be done and he expects the work will be started in the near future.

BUCK PRESENTS PROGRAM FOR FOREST LANDS Portland, Ore., Oct. 21 PtC. J. Buck, regional forester, In an ad dress at a public forum here, said progress In forest conservation in Oregon depends entirely upon the forcefulness of public opinion in re gard to the manner In which for ests should be protected. Buck said national forests already were on a sustained yield basis but that these lands will not be suffi cient to supply the lumber industry In the future. He also pointed out that 600,000 acres of forest land are held by counties and said the question of their administration should be settled at once. The forester recommended a 10 point program as follows: Provide an adequate share of funds for fire protection and insect control; provide an equitable tax system for forests on sustained yield basis; provide a means of supplying long-term .credit at low rates for industries operating on a sustained yield basis; provide. agree ments between public and private agencies for cooperative sustained yield. Provide for public acquisition of sufficient timber to stabilize the in dustry and enable establishment of a sustained yield basis; place all public lands under sustained yield management except parks and rec reation areas; provide sufficient funds for research; adoption by the state of a policy for management of tax-delinquent non-agricultural lands. Legislation to enable procurement of state forests under the Fulmer act; legislation to allow zoning oi forests and agricultural lands.

JONES TALKS ON NEW PANACEAS Most economic panaceas such ao the Townsend old age pension plan, the share-the-wealth plan, the Tri ple A and others fail because they do not distinguish between money and wealth. W. C. Jones, professor of economics at Willamette univer sity, said in a foruin discourse here. The Townsend plan, he said, fans to make the distinction for It would give eight per cent of the popula tion $24,000,000,000 a year to be con verted immediately into goods and services. But, he said, the greatest aggregate wealth this country has ever produced, $79,000,000,000, means 30 per cent of the wealth would oc in the hands of eight per cent re quiring a 30 per cent tax of all pro duction. The share-the-wealth plan fails to consider there is not as much as $3,000 to $5,000 per person wealth In this country, but only $675 per person. Professor Jones said. Of the Triple A proposal, jones said "it is a marvelous plan for the farmers: that of transferring money from the pockets of city folks to tne pockets of country folks. Concluding, he said, "there is no substitute in economic organization under a democracy for an Intelli gent citizenship." Other points urg ed by the speaker were elimination of war, control of tne ousiness cvcie, and utmost development of produc tive capacities of the people.
