Don is taking home a new ly -purchased cowboy hut which will remind him of the Heppner rodeo, the first live rodeo performance they have seen, although they know some of what to expect because the British Broadcasting Corp. has shown Englishmen how cowboys perform Jacqueline Harvey spent one day visiting school with Colleen who is in the seventh grade. She also enjoyed the carnivals here (called a fair at homo and was delighted with her first chocolate fudge Sunday. Jackie thinks kids here are much like those at home in the comprehensive state school where she is in her fifth and final year. She has a part-time job as a waitress and plans to go to catering college to qualify for a career in hotel management. Don and Margaret Harvey are both employed in their area's brick works. He works as a kiln burner, and he says that the works employs 150 workers on three shifts as parts of the plant are busy 24 hours a day, seven days each week. Margaret works in the laborartory there. Although building is down some in England, the Harvevs are fully employed. Vv'e talked a little about the July 29 royal wedding. The Harvevs said how much everyone admires the Prince and Princess of Wales and how orderly Londoners and their hords of visitors behaved during the big day. "Only one pickpocket was arrested. The entire excitement was very Well planned and managed and the bobbies did an excellent job." . Jolly senior citizen, Florence Kemp, has several friends here from her visit a few years back. She explained that there are almost 10 million seniors in England where taxes are very high and where seniors get supplementary benefits, rent adjustments and an allotment of bus tokens each month. '"My friends and I often do lots of extra traveling near the end of each month just using up our tokens." Mrs. Kemp brought daughter Cathy a nice bisquit tin as a souvenier with the pictures of the royal newlyweds and other decorations marking their wedding day. We all talked some about Cathy's nephew Steve Murphy, the Irish-English soccer player whose picture and story introduced him to people here last July and who hurried home to help his grandmother Mrs. Kemp arrange her trip to the U.S. Steve is continuing his employment as a carpenter and is again playing soccer regularly with his team. He recently married Karen Lawton, the medical secretary to whom he was engaged when he was here. These newlyweds are seriously considering emigrating to the U.S. They are planning to take the necessary preliminary steps soon. Visiting with Cathy Jensen's friendly relatives and friends from Robin Hood's part of the world has brought Heppner closer to historic England. Small world!

Intensively managed or under-managed? Many people arc concerned about future timber shortages in Oregon. Two recent studies show how tliese shoruij,'es can lx- avoided. The just-published 1980 Oregon Timber Supply Assessment by the Oregon State Forestry Department concludes that "because tlie federal Kovernment is the largest forest landowner in Oregon, much depends upon its actions. Har vest levels on National Forests can and must be increased if we are to meet the nation's needs." The 1980 Oregon Forest Productivity Report concludes that "public lands, primarily the Na tional Forests, show the greatest potential for increasing yield." Overall, according to the Re port, "the state's forests could be over twice as productive." This kind of increase in productiv ity matches the expected increase in demand for wood products in the future, assuring Oregon of a stable and strong forest products industry. Is there a problem? Yes. Because the effects aren't noticed for 50 years long after the next election the U.S. Forest Service has always been an easy place to cut the budget. Con gress needs to authorize the Forest Service to in crease production, and provide the agency with enough money to do it. Adequate funding will allow the Forest Service to increase its use of modem intensive management tech niques that encourage the rapid growth of superior trees.

We shouldn't overmanage our federal forests at the expense of other uses. But neither can we afford to undermanage tlnm. Industry lands cannot continue to make up for tle low produc tion levels of five federal forests if we are to meet future supply needs. What you can do. It's especially important for people who work and live in communities with forest products operations to take an active interest in the timk r supply issue.
