Ruth Slencrnski. child prodigy and her father, who Is her tour manager, passed through Medford Friday morn ing, on her way to San Francisco on a ship of the United Air Lines. The short interview which was possible whUe the plane was being serviced revested the fact that Ruth, for all of her musical ability, has the same simple charm of other little girls, ei cept, perhaps, for the fact that aa a mental genius she Is outstanding. Many little girls play the piano, It is true, but very few of them aa Ruth doea. She is only ten years old. and has been playing the piano, for seven and a half years. When she was but two and a half years of age. and waa out walking with her father In Berkeley, California, she heard a piano being played and demanded one. Father had no money to buy the Infant a piano, so he took her Instead to a piano store and boosted her onto stool before an Instrument. In a few moments she located various chords and intervals and practiced them vigorously until her father dragged her away. After that there was no rest until Ruth had a piano and in seven weeks was playing Bach. Now 4he gives concerts to the aston ishment of learned critics. When Ruth sailed for the United States from her home in Paris early this year she had with her a (75.000 guarantee of 30 concerts. This Is striking evidence of the astounding sensation she has created. During the present concert tour, the Washington, D. C. critics pro claimed her as surpassing In actual musical genius the great Beethoven himself, and so overwhelming were the press notices that her father, upon reading them, was emotionally overcome. Little Ruth, however, may be genius and beyond all rules and ad vice; her father la not and Is puzzled by the exceptional talent of his small daughter, as all thoughtful parents are puzzled by the characteristics, good or bad, that develop In their children. During a conversation with Ruth's father, In the all too brief time spent here, the following little story was related by him. Ruth was being in terviewed over the radio last Thurs day, In the studios of KOMO, Seat tle, In an impromptu manner, and among other questions asked her by the studio director, who appealing to a child's "Fairy Tale" Imagination, propounded a question In the follow ing manner: "Ruth, If you were given an Aladdin's lamp to rub. and have one wish of any kind gratified, what would you most desire, of anything In the world?" Quick as a flash without any hesitation, came the spontaneous reply, "A Baldwin piano." Ruth, who was standing near by, heard her father relating this story, and Interrupted him, at this point in the conversation, by clap' ping her hands in childish enthusl asm and saying "Yes, and I meant it, too."

Development of the natural re sources of Rogue River national for est on a sustained yield basis was outlined by C. J. Buck of Portland, regional forester, In a conference Sat urday with Karl Janouch, local supervisor. Having recently conducted a meeting of forest supervisors at Eugene, Mr. Buck visited the local offices yesterday enroute to eastern Oregon. Discussing work In the forest un der the national CCC expansion pro gram and relief responsibilities that tha forest service may have under the PWA appropriation. Mr. Buck pointed out many avenues along which Rogue River national forest will be developed. He referred to timber as the re source needing most careful devlop ment In Rogue River national forest. which Is intimately connected with the economic interests of the coun ties It Includes. Mr. Buck pointed out that the lo cal forest has very high timber, water, recreation, and fish and game values, as well aa a difficult fire prevention problem. He said that a national for est does not ordinarily rank so mgr. In all forest values. Having found while on a tour of the east that the Civilian Conserva tion corpa Is believed to fill a need that has never before been filled. Mr. Buck said that through Its ranks of young men every conceivable forest use will be developed. This, he said, will include roadwork, which in Rogue River national forest Is al-1 ready 75 per cent complete. The regional forester expects an In crease In the number of CCC camps within Rogue River national forest In the Immediate future and a cor responding Increase in work projects during the summer. Fire and water shed protection will be two import ant phases of the development pro gram. Transportation of beaver will be used as one of the many methods in which water-shed protection will be brought about. Mr. Buck said. He explained that these animals have a tremendous value In water conserva tion. Recreation and community facili ties will be another phase. Through actual Improvement of streams, swimming and fishing will be made more desirable, and increased num bers of game animals will be brought about through scientific research. There haa been a tendency of owners of timber lands to cut timber too rapidly. Mr. Buck said, causing danger to public values In the future. If kept up, this procedure will force the timber Industry out of existence In Oregon as It haa In many other states. Mr. Buck said. He aatd a sustained yield for tim ber areas will be brought about thru a different system In taxation of private timber ownership assistance to private owners through govern ment loans and federal and state ac quisition of timber lands.
