Fire Rate Low
In U.S. Forests
-1 Portland Vf) There were I,-
1.04 fires in national forests of
the Pacific Northwest this
year, the Forest Service re
ported Monday.
. -t But these fires burned only
1,542 acres, a new low for the
-region, Kermit W. Linstedt,
fire control chief, said.
The previous low for the 26
million acres of land protected
by the Forest Service was 3,-
031 acres In 1948.' 1
','' In Oregon 1,061 acres were
burned by 818 fires and Wash-,
ington lost 481 acres in 282
blazes.
Some 317 fires were man
caused. Linstedt said. Hunters
were blamed for 130 in Octo
ber. That was a 26 per cent in-1
lerease over the number re
! ported In October last year.
j f Damp weather and coopers-1
j tton by forest workers and vis
J itors were credited with the I
j low fire loss.

j Morse repeated his challenge ;
to Interior Secretary Douglas
' McKay to run against him for

sources or give them away."
