The survey team, headed by
Floyd Hart, president and general
manager of Timber Products Co.,
Medford, Ore., called for the
changes in Washington and region
al offices declaring:
The number of supervisory and
operating personnel. . . should De
reduced and greater powers for
final decision should bo vested in
the BLM state land offices."
Under the reorganization, re
gional offices will have charge of
cadastral surveying, legal matters
and administrative duties within
regional borders.
Hart's group also recommended
improving hearing and appeals
procedures by appointing three to
five field commissioners to hear
and determine issues of fact or
law.
The commissioners, the survey
team said, would serve as adjud
icators at the start to assist in
cleaning up a backlog of some
15,000 to 20,000 pending cases, in
cluding land disposal and oil and
gas leasing matters.
The survey team also recom
mended reducing the number of
regional BLM offices from the
present Seven to one for states
west of the Continental Divide
and one for state east of the di
vide. The team further recommended
locating district grazing and for
estry offices "in grazing and for
est areas where close attention to
management problems is re
quired." The reorganization is expected
to take about a year.

THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, Salem, Oregon
Speaker's Wit, Wisdom
Keep Crowd Happy
Judge Harold C. Kessinger of
Ridgewood, N. J., combined droll
good humor, wisdom, deep feel
ing and understanding to pro
vide the Salem Knife and Fork
club with a top notch lecture at
a dinner meeting at the Marion
Wednesday night.
The address attracted a capa
city audience in spite of a heavy
rain. .
The judge, who presides over
a municipal court just outside
the boundaries of New York City,
stressed the necessity of having
a citizenry that will .think for
themselves.
"Freedom is not automatic,"
he declared. "We must have a
thinking citizen. No organization
is good enough to turn one's vote
over to it without study."
Touching upon the economic
situation in this country, Judge
Kessinger expressed the belief
that inflation had been halted.
He based this opinion on the
fact that the present federal ad-

vestigation of the case.
Sweets Blamed for
Child Decay of Teeth
"Excessive consumption of
sugar is one of the major causes
of tooth decay. Think of that the
next time you consider letting
your children have sweets or soft
drinks," stated Dr. Robert B.
Stone, president of the Oregon
State Dental Association, as he
announced that February 1 will
be recognized as the sixth na
tional children's dental health
day.
In observance of children's
dental health day, many com
ponent dental societies in Oregon
have planned various types of
dental health programs, includ
ing talks to service clubs and
messages on radio and television.
"It is our duty to keep the public
properly informed," said Dr.
Stone.
A recommendation that the
sale of sweetened drinks and con
fections be banned in schools has
been adopted by the American
Dental Association, representing
70,000 of the nation's dentists, he
reported.

As for deflation the speaker
pointqd to the periods of econo
mic stress that followed every
war in the country's history.
However, Judge Kessinger be
lieves we are better fortified
against a serious downward spiral
than was previously the case.
On the world scene, Judge Kes
singer asserted "it was danger
ous to have no foreign policy at
all." That was the reason why
Hitler and Mussolini started
grabbing territory. "They saw
that Japan got away with it in
Manchuria" and felt that neither
Great Britain nor the United
States could or would do any
thing to stop them.
Judge Kessinger voiced a plea
for "prosperity without war and
a nation that is strong but which
will not misuse its strength. If
we keep the faith, what is wrong
will never defeat what is right."
The speaker's good humored
but somewhat barbed jokes about
the various brands of religious
faith drew chuckles and outbursts
of laughter from the audience.

Change of Venue Is
Denied by Judge
ALBANY Judge Victor Ol
Uver in circuit court Tuesday
disallowed a motion of Kermit
A. Molitor and wife for a
change of venue for their re
trial on a first degree arson
charge.
Neither Molitor nor his at
torney appeared in court to
support the venue change mo
tion, so Judge Olliver based his
ruling merely upon the sub
stance of the motion, which
charged that newspapers had
so fully aired the alleged of
fense and the first trial which
ended in a deadlocked jury,
that an unprejudiced jury could
not well be assembled for a
second trial.
The case is scheduled for re
trial next Monday and Tues
day.
