fAgK TEST rEDFOHTj MTTL TRIBUNE, fEPFOHD, OREGON'. TUESTjlY, 'OCTOBER 26, 1937 SET FOR FOREST USE FIGURES REVEAL 49,991 Persons Utilize Rec reational Centers 0 Rogue Area Additional Development Is Planned During the past summer travel season 49 091 persons made use of the recreation facilities on the Rogue River national forest, records today showed. Moat of the uu was at public for est camps and picnic grounds, but summer homes, resorts, national for est trails and other areas all received their share of visitors. The total registration, compared to the 1036 figure of 30,600. shows an Increase of 10,301 persons, or ap proximately 30 per cent, and estab lishes a new record. Because of the rapidly increasing recreational use and the demand for added facilities. It has been neces sary to devote much more labor to this type of work than has been cus tomary In the past, forest executives pointed out. Fifteen camp grounds were built the past summer, and plans have been completed for sev eral others to be constructed In the near future. The camps are not all large. Some contain only a single unit and are designed mainly for use by one or two parties who wish to get away from the crowd and be by themselves. Others are quite extensive and may accommodate from 75 to 100 persons, Some of the newly developed areas Foster Creek, Mulr Creek, Farewell Bend, Natural Bridge and Woodruff Meadows Bridge In the Union Creek district; South Fork. Nichols Creek Snowshoe, Parker Meadows, Wickiup and Willow Prairie in the Butte Falls district have long been favorite camp spots, but only recently were new end convonlent facilities In stalled. On the other hand, the Up per South Fork, Gypsy Spring. Ham aker and Aahland Peak forest camps have been constructed on newly se lected sites where no previous de velopments existed. Improvement Praised One of the larger areas developed this year, and considered an excel lent example of the concentration at these camps, Is Natural Bridge and Its environs. A new rood and park ing area have been built to facilitate the movement of traffic at the bridge. Walks have been constructed to and across the bridge for the convenience of those who are less agile and find It rather difficult to walk over the lava flow to the bridge. In addition to this,- stoves, tables and sanitary facilities have been In stalled In the camp ground Itself. The Improvements have received the praise of all who have seen or used them, foresters said. In one three-day period, August 3, 8 and 4, 164 persons visited tha Nat ural Bridge and signed the camp ground register. The McKee Bridge forest camp on the Applegat river was cited as an outstanding example of concentrated use. The area, about two acres In extent. Is now developed to accom modate about 100 persons but on several occasions during the summer 800 or more at one time availed them selves of lta opportunities for camp ing, picnicking and swimming. It Is planned to build a new ramp-1 ground on tha Uttle Apple gate river to relieve this congestion, forest headquarters said. Popularity O rowing Not all efforts are being expended on camp and picnic ground develop ments. Recreation roads and trails are continually being built or Im proved. These provide access to new scenic points and tend to reduce the concentration at some of the older areas. Roods to summer home and resort areas are steadily being Im proved, making them more accessible and bringing them closer to the cen ters of population. A new section of the Oregon sky line trail, part of the Pacific coast trail system, was constructed this year. Some time, not too far in the future, It will be possible to travel from Canada, to Mexico, through Washington, Oregon and California, over one continuous well-graded trail. foresters declared. Several of the new camps built this year are on or near the Diamond Lake and Crater Lake highways In the vicinity of Union Creek. The ever-Increasing travel to Diamond lake. Crater lake and the upper Rogue river area makes these added developments quite necessary, forest executive stated. "It Is quite evident' that the na tional forests of Oregon are becom ing Increasingly popular an a play ground for the entire country. It Is interesting to note that only about one-half of the visitors are Oregon- tans, the remainder coming from all parts of the United States. Cali fornia leads the out-of-state visitors with about 31 per cent of the total," a forest bulletin said.

Oct. 26. (fr, Baron Gen eral Sadao Araki declared today that "It probably Is necessary to strike dl ectly at Russia" to eliminate the Communist Influence which many Japanese consider the root of the present turmoil In China. General Araki, who was Japan's fiery minister of war during the Man- churtan incident of 1023, recently emerged from retirement by way of Premier Prince Fumlmaro Kenoye's new brain trust. A man who Is considered a harsh militarist, Genera Araki advocated stern military measures In a creamy, gentle voice. He castigated Ravi an Communism while munching on Rus sian bonbons. Two Main Causes. There are two principal causes of the present Chinese-Japanese con fllct, the general said. The first comes rrom Chinese vio lation of the agreements signed after the 1033 fighting which provided i demilitarized zone about Shanghai,' he said. "As soon as possible Chinese built permanent fortifications and moved garrisons Into them. Beneath this tangible fact lies the Invisible Influence of Communism. Chiang Kai-Shek (Chinese generalis simo) first used Japanese aid In unl fylng China. Now he has decided to cast his lot with Communists. He has switched from one to ths other several times In the past. Undoubt edly he Is using Com mun tits now, and when they are no longer avail able ho will turn elsewhere perhaps to Japan. "Therefore It probably Is necessary for Japan to strike directly Against Russia." Allows Rii.tfclan "Octopus" Using a lacquer teacup cover as a body and cigarettes radiating In dif ferent directions as arms, the general constructed a "Russian octopus." Ho touched the teacup cover and said: "Here's the third Internation ale." (The international Communist organization with headquarters at Moscow.) Ho pointed to the cigarettes and cald: "Hnre are China, Japin. India and America." Then he explained: "It will do no good to amputate any slrwln arm. Obviously we must attack the body. Japan Is solving her problem In the far east. Amorlca and England should coopers ts with Japan in solving tho world problem by attacking the heart of the octo ptia." General Araki said his experiences j on the Russian frontier In 1017, at i the outbreak of the Russian revolu tion, convinced him that Commun ism is the "enemy of humanity."

PRICES ON MEAT E IN COMING YEAR Larger Supplies Expected To Influence Retail Costs General Increase In Stock Hangs On Crops. CHICAGO, Oct. 36. (AP) Lower retail meat prices next year were envisioned today by C. A. Burmels- ter, senior agricultural economist of the U. 8. department of agriculture. Burmelster told the 32nd annual convention of the Institute of American Meat Packers larger meat supplies In prospect would produce a "lower average than 1037 prices. The drought of 1036 was the under lying cause of this year's higher prices, he said. "Since supplies of th better grades of beef will be much larger next year, by reason of larger feed supplies. It Is expected that prices of such beef will be considerably lower than In 1037," Burmelster said. "Prices of the lower grades of beef may average no lower than In the present year; poor supplies of such beef are likely to be smaller than a year earlier for reasons already mentioned. "Prices of pork probably will aver age lower than this year. "The livestock situation for 1036 may be summarized as follows: Larger slaughter supplies of well finished cattle than In 1037, but probably smaller total supplies of beef and veal ; smaller supplies of hogs In the next six months than a year earlier but larger supplies during the last half of 1038 than 1037; larger supplies of fed lambs. If crop conditions continue favor able. In the next few years there will be a general Increase In live stock supplies."
