COAST POWER HOOKUP
AS DEFENSE MEASURE
SUGGESTED BY RAVER
Washington, May 28. (IP)
Paul J. Raver, Bonneville power
administrator, suggested to Sec
retary Ickes today that all pri
vate and public power facilities
in the Pacific northwest be
interconnected as a national de
fense measure.
He made the suggestion in a
formal statement, saying that
the hook-up would involve the
Bonneville power development
on the Columbia river 40 miles
east of Portland. Ore., and the
Grand Coulee project on the
Columbia river m central Wash
ington. Neither Raver nor Ickes of
fered any plan for the hook-up
nor made any public estimates
of the cost.
"If we are prepared to meet
the power demand of the na
tional defense program, with
its inherent industrial expan
sion," Raver told Ickes. "it is
necessary that we accelerate the
completion of the interconnec
tion of the government plants
on the Columbia river with all
existing (private or public) util
ities in the area."
LI
NOT JOBLESS, IS
Letter Received From Sec
retary of Group Planning
Co-op Near Grants Pass.
A letter from the Pioneer
club of Long Beach. Cal., today
stated that some erroneous in
formation about the group's
plans had been published in a
Long Beach newspaper from
which the Mail Tribune recent
ly ran a reprint. This is the
group that proposes moving to
the vicinity of Grants Pass,
there to establish a cooperative
venture In timbering.
The letter from the Pioneer
club's secretary, R. C. Parcells.
said that in the firt place the
Long Beach people planning
the cooperative enterprire are
not unemployed, as was stated
in the newspaper story. " At
least 9S per cent of the mem
bership is working." Mr. Par
cells wrote..
Logging Only.
The group already has title
to sufficient timber land to meet
Immediate needs and there is
no Intention at present of doing
any milling, so that there will
be no plant or manufacturing
investment and overhead to
take care of, the letter said.
For the present, according to
Mr. Parcells, the group will do
only logging and the quoted
price of $14 a thousand board
feet would allow ample profit.
(Lumber authorities here, how
ever, emphasized that $14 a
thousand is for rough-finished
Douglas fir lumber, not logs,
and that the current market on
Douglas fir logs is $7.23 a
thousand, delivered.)
The Pioneer club's letter
stressed that all Income would
be distributed among the mem
bers of the cooperative.
"Our membership," the letter
said, "comprises a group of
scrupulously selected parties,
highly skilled in their respec
tive vocations many of them
are former Oregonians. familiar
with conditions, and highly
elated at the prospect of re
turning to their state."
Plan Studied.
Asserting that the group an
ticipates success, the letter con
tinued: "Each and every mem
ber has an absolute determin
ation to make our co-operative
reach its goal NOT riches, but
to build a home and independ
ence. And we anticipate keenly
the time when we shall become
permanent residents and a real
asset to the community and
state."
The group has made a thor
ough study of what It proposes
to do. has sufficient capital for
necessary tools and sustenence
and anticipates no necessity for
aid from anyone, the letter declared.
What was described as a Pio
neer club prospectus being cir
culated in southern California
was reproduced in the Grants
Pass Courier Saturday. No one
in Grants Pass knew anything
about the cooperative enter
prise, the Courier said.
One appeal In the asserted
prospectus was that: "Game and
fish of various kinds may be had
the year around, to say nothing
of fruits in season, both wild
and cultivated."
Another statement: "A defin
ite market is assured at all times
for our logs to any number of
mills within a very short dis
tance of our operations."
Lumbermen pointed out that
to do even logging expensive
equipment, such as tractors and
heavy trucks, is invariably nec
essary. It is the general practice
to deliver logs to U,- mills and
that requires trucking facilities,'
it was emphasized.

of screens and fishways in the

has been with the state forest
service for ten years, under
Dwight Phipps. district warden,
and his headquarters in his
new position will be at the state
forest patrol building on the
Midway road, telephone 983.
It is expected that Mr. Coy's
long experience and knowledge
of the country will permit a
closer check on the waste of
fish than has been possible
heretofore. Because of the size
of the district he has to cover,
however, he asked today for
the cooperation of sportsmen
and ranchers In reporting to
him any irrigation ditches in
which fish are found.
