Board at a meeting Jan. 6, after

within the 1 8-member board.
They were adopted by a vote
of 8-to-4 with one member
abstaining and five absent from
the meeting, according to the
Bureau."--
Urges Public Hearings
Neuberger wrote Secretary of
Interior' Douglas McKay to urge
that public hearings on the ques
tion be held in Oregon by his
department before any ' further
action is taken to implement the
regulations.- But a BLM official
told this reporter there was little
likelihood of this request being
granted. :r ,; - . ,'''."." .". '..
" The freshman 'senator, how
ever, has laid the matter-before
the Senate Interior Committee?
of which he is a member, aW
told Chairman James E. Murray
(D-Mont.) that this is a problem
"deserving careful, review by
the committee." Neuberger, say
ing he ; opposed the new regula
tions, ; told Murray in a letter
that the committee - should re
quest McKay to hold them up
until hearings are held in Ore
gon and the committee has re
viewed the entire, issue.
Assigned To Subcommittee
Neuberger has just been as
signed to the public lands sub
committee, which presumably
would deal with the- matter if
Murray and the full committee
approve. , ' . . , ": ..
. "The present regulations gov
erning use 'of access roads aren
of great importance, to logging
in the-O&C forests and thus to
the entire economy of Oregon,"
Neuberger explained to Murray.
'They : were drawn in 1950 for
the purpose of providing wider
access" 'to r federally-owned- tim
ber, and upon them depends the
ability of, smaller independent
operators, to compete for ' such
timber in- the O&C forests.
There is no doubt that the re
quirement of reciprocal road-use
agreements instituted by : these
regulations has been successful
in furthering competition for
federal timber.
Neuberger said his evidence
for this was that multiple bids
for O&C timber-since the 1950
regulations were .imposed had
"more than" tripled." v - y-"
Beit Price Said Assured ; --
Such competition is not only.
good for the .-competing -bidders
and consistent with our; public
policy of favoring free competi
tive enterprise; it also, assured
the government of receiving the
best available price for its timber,"-
said the ; senator; - noting
that sales, receipts last year set
a recordf of $15,845,833. "
1 "Substantial ., benefits to the
public would thus : be jeopard
ized by a .return to the monopo
listic, tendencies accompanying
the pre-1948 policies "on access
roads, Neuberger declared. . -
Specifically, the senator con
tended .thai the proposed changes
would ' "abandon the require
ment of reciprocal -road-use
agreements as a condition pre
cedent to granting right-of-way
and ; road use permits" and that
this would "seriously - weaken
the present policy of facilitating
competition for federal timber.
He said the changes would also
"eliminate" or weaken present
provisions for protection of the
access of hunters, fishermen and
others to recreational areas in
the O&C lands, and for arbitra
tion of controversies." ' V I
Many Pretests Received
- Neuberger said -he has looked
into the ; question " as result ' of
many . protests that have been
sent to him against the proposed
regulations. He said : the pro
posal was opposed within the
O&C advisory board by mem
bers "who represent labor, agri
culture and important sections
of the logging industry. .
; ; BLM officials said the; opposi
tion had been spearheaded by
the Western Forest Industries
Association, ..whose'.';- executive
secretary, R. T. Titus, is on the
board.; . ,.
; Titus about a. year ago
charged in a- letter to -McKay
that BLM had been "negotiating
with a small group of big opera
tors to revue the - right-of-way
regulations, in such a way that
competition would be largely
eliminated and the . owners of
strategically located X private
land would once more virtually
control the sale of BLM timber,
as was the situation jprior to
1948 when, the department re-

far I.
ported 80 per cent of the sales
were to single bidders."
McKay replied by -inviting
Titus and hisgroup into discus
sions on the question. Shortly
thereafter, ; last . January, - the
O&C board assigned a subcom
mittee the task of reviewing the
right-of-way regulations to sug
gest: ways of 'simplifying them.
During the past year, the sub
committee, drafted its proposals
and this month they were ap
proved, by. the board for trans
mission to McKay and . BLM
here. ; -';.:';- 'V' ' : --
To ' Review Proposals -' '-'0'.
Officials said - no action; has
been taken on them since their
receipt, but that they would "be
worked over' and then, reviewed
at the highest level of the de
partment a procedure expected
to take spine weeks at least. :
