McKay Describes Need for Solution To Unemployment Lakeview, Ore., June 7 (U.R) Gov. Douglas McKay told the Lakeview Chamber of Com merce last night of an urgent need to find an answer to Ore gon's seasonal employment prob lem. The governor in Lakeview with other high state officials will meet today with sportsmen and others interested in an ef fort to reach accord in a contro versy involving some of the na tion's best waterfowl nesting grounds in Warner Valley of Lake county. No'. 1 Problem In his speech, Oregon's chief executive pointed out un-em-ployment as Oregon's No. 1 problem. "With three main sources of i n c o m e logging, agriculture and tourists with some stable enterprises." the governor said. "These main sources of income are all seasonal." As an example, McKay point ed to the huge quantities of dough lumber snipped out of the state. He sees the finishing of lumber products in the state as one step toward correcting the unemployment situation. The big issue of the officials' trip will be taken up today. Sportsmen Divided Sportsmen, who are divided on the matter of developing a part of Warner Valley for farm ing, are expected to be widely represented at the conference in the valley today. The state land board has con tracted to build a dike at Crump lake in the valley for irrigation purposes, and it has under con sideration the leasing of 8.000 acres for cultivation mostly grains. Some sportsmen have express ed belief that such develop ment would help rather than hinder the game preserve. Other sportsmen have said they fear the development would endanger the nesting grounds.
