Bark Beetle
Battle Depicted
Oregon's forestry depart
ment's exhibit at the State Fair
this year will feature the Kra
phic description of the battle
against the Douglas fir bark
beetle, which is destroying
priceless acres of sawtimber in
the state.
The exhibit, prepared by the
forestry department with Hugh
Hayea the artist, outlines the
research plans which attempt
control of the insect attacka on
the forests. The beetles an
nually destroy more timber
than forest fires. ,
A giant replica of the bark
beetle has been fashioned from
cardboard and shows in detail
this silent destroyer of trees.
Since 1951, tremendous loss
es have been austained from
combination beetle attacks and
blow-down from high winds.
Estimates obtained from
ground and aerial surveys place
the lossses somewhere around
ten billion board feet of timber,
mostly Douglas-fir, that has
succumbed.
Blowndown timber forms sn
ideal wintering-over refuge for
the bettle. In the spring, adult
beetles emerge to continue at
tacks on green timber. Forest
ers estimate enough timber has
been killed in Oregon to build
a five foot board walk from
the top of Mt. Hood to the
moon. Unless the timber is log
ged quickly, Oregon will lose
more than $1V4 billion.
Other attractions, always
popular with forest lovers, are
the huge sections of Sitka
spruce logs which round out the
forestry exhibit. The largest
section measures 11 feet in
diameter and was cut from a
spruce over 525 years old. It is
estimated that it was a aapling
ten feet high when Joan of Arc
led her troops in 1429. The
smaller section of spruce, 410
years old, measures 10 feet in
diameter.
Special attraction In the dis
play will be exhibits by Keep
Oregon Green featuring
Smokey the Bear and the Care,
less Hunter.

GPO printer Carl J. Lund

to aay whether he made 125,
000 last year from taking horse
race bets at the plants
Tight-lipped, and plainly
taken aback by the gambling
development, Blatten b e r g e r
announced be will suspend im
mediately . any employe who
like Lundmark refuses to testi
fy on the ground his answers
might Incriminate him.
The public printer's state
ment touched off a round of
applause, from the audience of
more than 200.
The subcommittee has been
Investigating charges that some
employes of the printing office
are communists and may have

man subcommittee, headed off
on a different track baturaay,
however, contending that gam
bling in the GPO could cause
employes to get so deeply Into
debt that they might be easy

The change sidetracked for a
time the scheduled appearance
as a witness of Philip L. Cole,
