Committee Agrees To Land Transfer "A crucial transfer of land be tween the Federal Government and the State of Oregon has been given the go-ahead," Con gressman Al Ullman announces. "It will allow the State to com plete its agreement with Boeing Corp. on the development of Boe ing Space Age Industrial Park." The approval of the House In terior Committee was required ior a withdrawal of b89 acres of public domain land by the Corps of Engineers who could then arrange to transfer the land to the State. Congressman Ullman stated that he personally went to Congressman Wayne Aspinall, chairman of the Interior Com mittee, and that Mr. Aspinall consented to expedite committee approval. "Time is extremely important," Ullman stated, as the state has an October deadline to meet with Boeing. "Normally that approval would have taken several weeks. However Mr. Aspinall is aware of the great local support for the Boeing project and the neel for the Park. He agreed, after listening to my explanation of the need for haste, to approve the transfer of land to the Corps without further delay." The Eastern Oregon congress man praised Aspinall for his foresight and said. "Oregon should be very grateful to the chairman for his cooperation. With the approval of the land withdrawal, the Corps can go ahead and, after a proper time for public notice, complete the sale to the state. This should allow Boeing to begin the de velopment of the Park by lale fall." Ullman was commended by Sam Mallicoat, director of the State Planning Department in Washington, representing the state. Full cooperation and ef fective action in expediting this transfer is now underway. 69 Youngsters Start First Grade Careers Parents in a number of local families probably had some sen timental moments when school started on September.

The labor bodv accused the sponsors of the initiative, which would force commercial fisher men off the Columbia, of being a seitish minority who are con tinually attempting to establish a monopoly of a resource that rightfully belongs to all the people of Oregon." The labor resolution was announced by Walter Lofgren, secretary of the county organization. Lofgren asserted that closing the Columbia to commercial fishing would destroy the local gillnet and canning industry, causing the loss of large invest ments and hundreds of jobs di rectly related to or dependent on the century-old industry. Labor groups that would be directly affected bv the pro posed legislation are the Colum bia River Fishermen's Protective Union and the United Packing house Workers. The Clatsop county labor res olution noted that, if the river were closed to commercia oper ations, most Oregonians would have no access to Columbia River Chinook salmon. The initiative filed earlier this month would not only ban commercial fishing by Oregonians, but would also prohibit the importation of Col umbia River salmon landed or processed in Washington. The Oregon State AFL-CIO or ganization, the resolution speci fied, will be requested to sup port the stand of the Clatsop County Labor Council when the statewide body holds its annual convention.
