The question of opening this area has been raised by mill operators in Lane county, who at the moment are facing a short age of saw logs. They claim the Bureau of Land Management promised to waive the existing marketing restrictions when it concentrated its access road building program in the Smith river area to enable loggers to reach beetle-infested timber in that area. Huddling With Advisers ' ' BLM Administrator Edward Woozley said in an interview, "I don't think the bureau ever has said the marketing restric tions will be lifted enHrely." But Woozley, who toured the entire O&C timberland region last month, is now huddling with his forestry advisers on how to handle the question posed by Lane county operators who want to get into the Smithriver area next spring when BLM conducts timber sales in that area. Without hinting what he might recommend to Secretary McKay, Woozley said BLM is considering two courses of action which have been followed in some instances in the past. One would be a temporary waiver of the marketing agreement. This was the procedure followed last year from Sept. 27 until Christ mas 90 days to open up more timber to mills caught short as a consequence of the lumber Under this temporary waiver McKay authorized sales of up to 46,000,000 board feet of timber , in the Southcoast marketing area to mills in the nearby Siu slaw and Douglas areas, but only 3,000,000 board feet was sold across the marketing line. Emphasis on Regulation . The second possibility being considered by BLM is an empha- m sis on a January, lass, reeuia- 4in Kv mrVi iK cuinlne timKor tn one area is made available to mills in other areas. It would work like this: If BLM; receives no bids in a timber, sale from mills in the marketing areathen any opera tor can submit a sealed bid for that timber, providing .his bid equals or exceeds the appraised price of thecjimber set by BLM. That sealed bid must remain pending for five days. If no one else bids hvihat period, the tim ber is bis. If other bids are sub mitted within five days, then BLM sells the timber to the high est bidder at auction. This pro cedure under the 1953 regulation can be followed at any time for the benefit of outside mills within 90 days of the original sale date. The first alternative, waiving restrictions temporarily, would put all operators on the same basis in bidding for timber. BLM officials point out this would tend to increase competition and jack up prices, thereby increas ing timber sale revenues for the government and the 18 O&C counties. The second alternative, the 90-day regulation? would give the mills in the marketing area first crack at all sales and open them up to outside operators only in instances where local mills passed up the sale entirely. BLM officials say they don't know whether they will have more timber for sale from the Smith river area than local mills can consume, but they say this procedure has been followed in numerous cases the past two years in the Southcoast market ing area. Woozley emphasized that he isn't so much concerned about competition and the resulting price the government's timber brings as he is in preserving good forestry practices for the O&C lands. "We want to practice good -forestry without upsetting our allowable cut," said the head of BLM. One of the reasons for the demand from Lane county is that BLM is holding , back on opening up the Esmond creek access road, which will be com pleted in November, because cutting there would push Siu slaw "way over our allowable cut," said Woozley. Innocence Pleaded To Stock Charge Grants Pass Clarence Ed ward Smith, 62, of 311 South Peach street, Medford, Friday pleaded innocent : to charges of illegal sale of unregistered min-j ing stock, and inducing purchase of securities by deception and fraud. He was arraigned before Circuit Judge O. J. Millard. , Smith will go on trial Dec. 20 on the stock sale charge. No date has been set for his trial on the second charge. Mitchel Emanuel Hughes, 74, Redwood highway, Grants Pass, pleaded innocent to an indict ment charging him with unlaw ful sale of securities. His trial on that charge is scheduled for Jan. 4, 1956. Hughes' arraign ment on a secret indictment charging him with inducing purchase of securities by fraud and deception was continued until next Monday. Names of the two men ap peared as officers of the O'Brien Chrome company on stock certif icates involved in alleged sales. Hughes was named as president and Smith as secretary. .
