MEDFOED MAIL TRIBUNE, BEDFORD, OREGON', TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER if, 1931. PAGE TIUlEHi PLACE CENSORSHIP Missionaries Stop at Local Airport to Service Plane News of Conflagrations At tracts Undesirables, Is Claim Work for Home Unemployed Held Aim It was announced at the Crater National forest olllce headquarters here .today that from now on no In formation will be ilven out from there. In accordance with Instruc tions of C. J. Buck, the regional forester, with headquarters at Port land, about fires In that forest. It la explained that the reason for withholding such information la because the news about new forest fires and the number of fighters employed to quell them, attracts from the outside many undesirable men. as well as some worthy ones, to the city In hopes of getting Jobs as temporary fighters. Most undesirables when through working on a forest fire remain In the city, and will take any Job whatever at most any price, and thus prevent much work being given needy local men. Many Fires Set. Many of the forest fires In the Crater National forest area are of known or suspected Incendiary origin and it is thought by the forest service that there may be less fires Btarted by persons with the view In mind of getting a Job In aiding to extinguish them. If information Is suppressed. The forest service desires to cut down the number of undesirable outsiders, through less publicity being given to forest fires in this area, In the hope that fewer forest fires will result. Then, too, the forest service would rather help out the local unemploy ment situation by putting home men to work In fighting fires, than by hiring transients. As It has been, when a new large fire Is reported In the forest, the officials of the latter summon the required number of emergency fire fighters from the streets In the business section, and thereby the Idle outsiders loitering around for Just such a call are corralled, because, of being found quickly. Plenty Available. Plenty, of local men needing work can be found for forest fire flght tlng. the local forest officials say. and the 30 cents an hour paid for such work is badly needed by many of these men and their families. It Is expected that Dwlght Phlpps, district state fire warden In charge of fighting fires on state protected lands In this area, will co-operate with the regional forester In with holding forest fire Information, but when questioned this afternoon he stated that he had as yet received no such request from him. In the absence of such a formal request from Mr. Buck, Phlpps declined to discuss the subject.
