Spraying of 110,000 Acres
Of Mt. Hood Forest Ended
Spraying of the 110,000 acres of forest on the east side of Mt.
Hood for budworm was completed Monday by pilots of the Ace
Flying Service and Monday night the 14 planes and 10 pilots
returned to Salem.
The men, on the spraying Job since June 6, using a wheat field
for their landing field, had 5000
acres to spray Monday morning.
This was done in two hours and
finished shortly after noon, after
being delayed by bad weather.
used in the spraying of the
forest, completed without any
accidents, even minor ones, were
1 1 smaller planes and a convert
ed bomber. Demers also used
two observation planes. Not all
of the planes were in the air at
one time but from seven to eight
were flying at a time.
The bomber, piloted by Bob
Morris of Salem, according to
Leo "Ace" Demers, who has the
service, got a 100 per cent kill
on the worms in the area that
it sprayed. Capable of carry
ing 25,000 gallons of spray it
carried on this job only about
1000 gallons because of the
roughness of the landing strip.
The big plane could spray an
area 400 feet wide while the
small planes got an area about
100 feet wide.
Pilots of the planes were all
from this area, with the exceD-
tion of one man from Medford.
One other pilot originally came
from California but now makes
his home in the Salem area.
The spray Job by the Salem
firm, which next year will try
for the contract on a million
acres to be sprayed for bud
worm, has attracted nation-wide
attention. News reel men were
on the scene to take pictures of
the operation as well as pho-
tograpners from papers and
magazines from throughout the

Yesterday Morse attacked the
Douglas-Aiken proposal in harsh
words. He said it would turn out
to be of "great disservice to Am
erican labor."
He said he is "surprised" that
some labor leaders are willing
to accept it. He said it is un
sound and "not fair," and "op
ens the way for a long walk
back" toward a "reactionary'
way of doing things.
Morse also assailed the Taft

among other things explicit
authority for 60-day injunctions,
similar to the injunctions now
obtainable under the Taft-Hartley
act.

That there is no magic In foot

rial was the assertion of Jim
Aiken, head University of Ore
gon football mentor during an
incident-filled talk before mem
bers of the Salem Kiwanis club

In speaking of the material
Aiken pointed out that Oregon
is restricted by rules in its meth
ods of securing players. "Ore
gon abides by those rules," he
asserted. And then by way of
afterthought added "as well as
any other school in the conference."
Coach Aiken said he wanted
boys who wanted to ,play the
game and who were not on the
campus for the purpose of mak
ing financial gain out of their
athletic ability.
In speaking of the season,
Aiken said "We never under
estimate an opponent and we
never sell ourselves short."

basin than do present methods.
The development now is car
ried on by the army engineers
and the reclamation bureau,
which recently agreed upon a
coordinated program for the
river basin.
A long list of what he de
scribed as conflicts between the
two agencies over which should
construct which project in the
basin was cited by Jackson.
This brought from Chairman
Whittington (D-Misj.) the as
sertion it would be more eco
nomical from a government
standpoint to compel tha two to
coordinate their program rather
than to set up "a super agency'
to oversee the work.
Whittington said the commit
tee is considering the CVA pro
posal "at the very time the en
gineers and bureau have re
portel to us they are in agree
ment on Columbia river development."
Mitchell Testifies
Mitchell said the CVA is need
ed to coordinate and speed up
development of the Columbia
basin. He asserted:
'In a real and fundamental
sense the CVA is a protective
measure a reorganization,
mobilization, if you will of
federal agencies to prevent the
gradual decline in the resources
and the property of the Pacific
Northwest.
"It is not the counsel of wis
dom to wait until the soils of
the region are so eroded as to
create a national emergency, or
to have a recurrence of floods
so disastrous as those last year,
or to continue the power short
ages in the region to a point
where industrial growth has
been completely strangled, or to
halt our economic development
until unemployment spreads
