John Matschck of Portland, Oregon crusade chairman, point ed out that $231,469 in crusade funds were at work in research projects in Oregon during the past vear, including $133,185 from the national headquarters of the ACS in New York. Throughout the United States, Matschck said, approximately $18 million in crusade funds are being allocated annually for research projects. Since the re search program of the ACS was started in 1947, more than $180 million has gone into research. "No one can question the ad visability of spending such huge sums for research that will eventually lead to the answers about cancer." the chairman stated, "but the sad fact is that there are many worthwhile re search projects that cannot be pursued because of lack 01 funds." Gov. Tom McCall has urged Oregonians to support the April crusade, not only by giving their month to get the two little boys, who arrived at their new home here on Friday, April 4.

The budget is $15,282 higher than the one for 1968-69. It would include $45,000 from the State Department of Agricul ture, $40,000 from the State Game Commission, $226,581 in county funds and the remainder in federal funds. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the par ticipating federal agency. Accounting for $9,795 of the increase are salary and fringe benefit increases for the trap pers employed under the pro grams. In a review of the programs for the coming fiscal year the committee made plans for ac celerating control measures for nutria, who are increasing in the Willamette Valley area. Both coyotes and fox were re ported on the increase and con cern was voiced that the heavy snow pack in the mountains might push the coyotes further down toward the valley areas. Fox, the committee said, had been reported in areas where they previously were scarce. Federal representatives on the committee said fur prices are better now than they had been in many years and expected to remain good and indicated they were hopeful this would stimu late people bothered by preda tors to do some control work on their own. During the committee's meet ing Virgil Hiatt, chief chemist, State Department of Agriculture, explained revisions that would be made in the state's pesticide law by House Bill 1335, one of which would prohibit use of pesticides not registered with the department. Hiatt also discussed with the committee the department's equipment for making toxicolo gy tests on animals and gave the committee an estimate of the cost of running tests made under the predator control program.
