With suitable weather, the 28 winter sports sites In the Na tional Forests of Oregon and Washington will be visited by a record numoer or persons this winter, the U. S. Forest Service predicts. More than 2 million persons, visited the winter play grounds three-fourths of them skiers, last winter. Area operators continue to ex pand and Improve facilities to meet the Krowlne demand, the Forest Service said, and anoth er development may be started ! soon on the east side of Mt. Hood. Prospective developers have until January 31 to sub mit bids for a Mt. Hood Nation al Forest special-use permit to develop ski facilities in that lo cation. I Commercially operated ski areas on National Forest lands are the result of Intensive stud les on the part of the Forest service and the commercial op erator. Studies cover all facets of the ski area operation. Need for such a development is an important consideration. Developments involve a consid erable investment and the For est Service does not wish to en courage a ski area that is fi nancially unsound for the In vestor. When all factors are favora ble, the site is approved. A pros pectus is prepared and adver tised for a year, allowing pros pective developers an opportu nity to observe the site under both winter and summer con. dltions. A special-use permit is then issued to the developer whose proposal best meets pub lic need. The operator pays a fee based upon a percentage of the gross income. As with all National Forest receipts, 25 per cent of fees collected Is paid to the county in which the Nation al Forest site is located. Anoth er 10 per cent is paid to the National Forest road fund, with the remainder going into the U. S. Treasury, board and an Interagency advis ory committee to represent local governmental units. County Judge I'aul Jones said Monday that Glen Ward of Hop oner and Hoy Llndstrom of lone have boon ajointcd to the lia ison committee to serve with members of the county court. The Judge said that he has the understanding that the county may use Its share of the state marine fund for part of the needed matching money, possi ble outdoor project that would Ih evaluated by the local com mittee would Include recreation al developments at Boardman and Irrlgon: the Installation of septic tanks and trailer parking spaces In the two county parks. Cutsforth and Anson Wright! Memorial-' and development of sites in the Herrln Meadows area. One of the first needs In the latter area would be the ac quiring of lands for which some of the fund might be used, he said. Any funds beyond that al ready available for matching wourd have to be provided from the next county budget. Alter local projects are eval uated they are to be submitted to the state for evaluation and submission to the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation, the Federal government's adml n 1st e r 1 n g rxxi y. This Is the first annual state apportionment of a 24-year grant-in-aid program to locil government. The Land and Water Conservation Fund was established by Congress in 1964 and is financed by revenues from the now $7 recreation con servation permit for use of Fed eral outdoor recreation areas. other Federal recreation fees. sales of surplus Federal real property, and the existing Fed eral motorboat iuels tax. Under the distribution plan of funds available in the state, the highway Commission approved 40 per cent to be divided equally among the 3G counties of the state and 60 per cent to be div lded on th- basis of each coun ty's percentage of the total state population.

Rob Itietmann of lone said In relation to the proposed ordi nance, "I think we owe a debt of gratitude to our public? of ficials fur the time and effort they have spent on this. We shouldn't have any fears as long as we elect good public officials." Mora Publicity Suggastad Some expressed the feeling that the ordinance had not been circulated or publicized suffic iently tut that its terms and pro visions are fully understood. The suggestion was made that the ordinance should be print ed In the Gazette-Times as th official county paper. Judge Jones assured thoe present that It would get wider dissemina tion either through a heavier distribution of mimeographed copies or through publication. Itoscwall had opened the meeting by explaining the need ror orderly development through zoning. He said that the meet ing was for hearing ouestions and giving answers. "We want your suggestions, criticisms and help," he aald. He explained that the Interim zoning ordinance had expired last March but said that he felt If the county did not provide its I zoning ordinance that it would soon become mandatory from the state government." Rosewall said that the com mission will hold at least two more hearings. Then the county court holds a hearing of its own. after which it may adopt the ordinance without a vote of the people If It chooses. "It is not the intention to force upon the people an act unfair or unfavorable to them or to their Interests," Rosewall said. HCrrrtnt CAZETTC TIMES. Thursday.
