counties having national forests
within their borders. The law
states that the money is for roads
and schools. An additional ten
per cent of the receipts Js made
available for forest service use on
forest roads.
Oregon receives $938.87056 and
Washington eats $737,852.43 mak
ing a total for the two states of
$1,676,722.99. This Is an Increase
over fiscal year 1946, which
showed $559,280 for Oregon and
