Albany College Graduate Makes a Hit. McMinnville. Or Sort- io . key engines, fools and whiskey are the tactora in the mainriiu r r- forest fires, according to Rer. A. M. Williams. ua3tor of the, lr-1 p,i... terian church who preached last night on "Lessons from Oregon's Forest tires." Mr. Williams mnniln r,n. ed from three months in the mountains where he witnessed several fires and studied their causes. He said thnt tho state legislature should outlaw donkey engines and that electricity should be substituted for steam in logging. The state should revise its fire laws and take more responsibility in the service. Criminal carelessness of camnnrn in starting fires in the mountains was scored. Letters from the forestry service were quoted to the effect that the use of intoxicants is contributory to fire loss. The ministor said: "I spent some time this summer at the edge of a big Government reserve, at which point a gallon house is located to supply parties going into the moun tains. While I was there, a party, said to have been loaded with wet goods, started a fire which was spreading fast -when a packer arrived in ,the nick of time and extinguished it. The Gov ernment is taking tremendous risks in licensing gallon houses on the edge of it big reserves. Had this fire not been stopped it would have bottled up 100 campers at a resort up the canyoti.
