RATED SECOND IN
FEDERAL SURVEY
Jackson county's Jail rated
second highest in the state in a
survey of Oregon jails housing
federal prisoners made by the
federal bureau of prisons, ac
cording to a news release from
Washington, D. C. The local jail

land city jail, the report states,
and 32 of the state's 39 jails
were ranked as unfit for federal
prisoners. Portland ranked but
57 per cent and Jackson county
jail 55, and jails with ratings of
under 50 per cent are "condemn
ed" by the FBP as unfit for
federal prisoners.
Federal bureau of prisons In
spectors rate jails on administra
tion, discipline, building and
equipment, personnel, food,
medical service, hospital facili
ties, cleanliness and sanitation,
personal hygiene, rehabilitation,
employment and industries and
religious instruction. In addition,
the inspector is required to an
swer 10 pages of form questions
and make a complete personal
observation report on the jail.
It was stated that some ot the
inspections were made several
years ago, but that no informa
tion had been brought to the at
tention of the FBP which would
Indicate that a relnspecfion
would change the rating of the
jail. Local officials have no rec
ord of the last inspection made
of the county jail.

Hersey began his career as a
radio writer in 1930 and besides
the Billie Burke show, has aided
in many other major shows on
the CBS network. !
The telegram from Miss Burke !
said the script written by West j
for her half-hour program "was !
unbelievable, such hilarious lines
and situations and so, beautifully J
constructed. Never heard so j
many laughs." Remarking on a
letter from West describing the
valley and his home the wire
said:
"Reads like some place one
dreams about up there. My heart
felt gratitude. Thanks a mil
lion." ,
FIREWOOD OFFERS
Helsinki (U.R) There is no lack
of fuel in Finland, but the prob
lem is how to get firewood out
of the forests and into the cities.
For a period of 12 months
starting Juno 1, Finland needs
62,000,000 cubic meters of wood,
or about 9,000,000 more than
during the same period last year.
Of this amount 54 per cent will
be reserved for use as firewood.
Approximately 100,000 wood
choppers must work continuous
ly all 12 months in order to
carry out the program but in
June there were only 48,000 men
in the forests.
The Finnish government has
promised extra food rations and
other advantages to woodchop
pers, but it fears a considerable
deficit in the chopping program
owing to the lack of manpower
and unwillingness of the work
ingmen to do hard work in the
forests.
Finland has only meager coal
supplies, which are all reserved
for key industries. Last "chop
ping" year only 75 per cent of
the wood needed was chopped,
and 65 per cent transported to
tha cities. This year there is
not much hope of better results.
There is no possibility of im-
! porting coal and the nation is
I entirely dependent on its forests.
