Oregon Officials
Urged fo Press for
O&C Land Return
Oregon City (U.B A. W.
Lafferty, Clackamas county at
torney, Saturday urged Oregon's
officials to press anew their
pleas of a 1951 legislative me
mortal railroad grant lands to
the state.
He based his plea on a recent
report, filed by the U.S. comp
troller, which hinted heavy loss
es of revenue . due to certain
pratices of the forest service
and the Bureau of Land Man
agement. Comptroller Lindsay Warren,
In his report to congress, said
investigators had established
that "gentleman's agreements,"
among operators to restrict com
petitive bidding, timber selling
practices of the two government
agencies, private control of cer
tain access roads and adminis
trative policies of the agencies
in regard to these access roads
have cost the government hun
dreds of thousands of dollars
in revenue loss.
These losses, he said, will run
high into the millions in another
even years.
Lafferty, in a letter to Gov.
Paul Patterson and others, said
it shows how the grant lands
are being handled by the feder
al agencies and it should point
tp the need to put the lands
sack under state management
