i ' ... ', ; i In the Day's News 4, By FRANK JENKINS . A few days ago I'paid a visit, ,' along with an inspection party ".'.from Oregon's state parks ad- visory committee, to California's state parks in the redwoods area of Humboldt and Del Norte counties. It is a fascinating trip, easily covered in a week-end. There is f' no better time to make it than " these crisp October days. I can unhesitatingly recommend it, These awesome redwood forests, the bulk of their trees varying ? in age from 1,000 to 2,000 years, are worth a trip across the con -;' tinent. For us of Southern Ore- "' fon, they are only a few hours "way. Q .- CALIFORNIA has 134 state parks somewhat fewer "in number than Oregon's. They vary in size from a few acres to some 400,000 acres (the t huge ones are in the state's desert areas, where land values are rel atively insignificant.) Of all of them, these redwoods parks are by long odds the most fabulously . beautiful. The Humboldt Redwoods park ctontains some 23,000 acres, in- . eluding some of the finest red- . wood groves in California. The ,' present area of Prairie Creek " Redwood park includes 11,000 acres, with more acquistions planned. Small, but spectacular 2 Patrick's Point, hanging above, the rugged coastline, has only 400 acres. 6 An added attraction at Prairie Creek park is a band of elk that inhabits a wide meadow that is v a part of the park area. These impressive animals are , not "tame," in the sense that city park elk are tame. They . come and go from the surrounding forests, but they soon learn that they are safe within the park ' borders and pay no attention to the throngs of visitors. - AVERNIGHT camping is per- v V muted in all of these parks, -- and during July and August all : - of them were filled to capacity , very night. The attendants re port a steady increase m the number of visitors carrying camp equipment. The same tendency - has been noted in Oregon state parks. Hotel and motel owners in the vicinity of state parks in both - states were far from enthusiastic -: at first over the idea of permit- ting overnight camping. This at ... titude, however, is changing. -q Many of them report that after camping out for several nights visitors tend to go to motels or hotels to clean up and get a i 3 lii a a m SHSSSSSSSMHSBSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHMSSSSSSSBSSBSSSSSSI Man who go to De Soto showroom October 19 to see 1956 DeSoto in for world of surprises. JiFreely translated from the Chinese). Dick Knight Co. 33 South Riverside change from their own cooking. In these cases, they are apt to stay two or three nights instead of moving on the next morning. THE average charge at the Cal ifornia parks is SI per night for automobiles and SI. 25 for trailers. The accomodations in clude camping- space, tables and benches and an outdoor stove. Fuel for the stove can be pur chased at the camp headquarters. Toilet facilities and . showers, with hot and cold,water, are pro vided at most of the camps. Roughly the same accomoda tions at about the same prices are provided in Oregon's state parks. In general, the facilities pro vided in the Oregon parks are newer and more modern, having been installed more recently. In many of the Oregon parks there are electric stoves, with coin-in-the-slot attachments. Laundry facilities are provid ed in the better parks, along with tubs for bathing babies. The park people, incidentally, report in creasing travel by families with very young babies. CALIFORNIA estimates the capital value of its state parks system at about $65,000,000. A little less than 70 per cent of the state's share of this amount has Sunday, October 16. 195S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUK-gfTaD been paid for with royalties from California's offshore oil. A lot of inland demagogs insist that this offshore oil belongs to ALL THE PEOPLE, and not just to the people of the states whose borders touch the ocean beaches. I wonder how the people of Ore gon would feel about it all if oil should be found under the ocean off Oregon's beaches. Would they want this oil to be long to ALL THE STATES, in land as well as coastal? Or would they feel that royalties from oil discovered under the surf off Oregon's beaches should belong to the PEOPLE OF OREGON?
