o Tribune Medford Second Section MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1955 Pages 1-6 Northwest Timber Hearings Expected To Resume in Washington in February By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington The congres sional investigation of federal timber management in Oregon the subject of hearings in the state last month will be con tinued in further hearings here in February. This is the outlook a leen by the professional staff mem bers of the Senate Interior and the House Government Opera tions committees. The staff is currently attempt- lng to digest the mountain of testimony, exhibits and state ments submitted for the record during the series of hearings he in Medford, Roseburg, Eu gene and Portland. To Be Translated This digest will be translated into a staff report for the mem bers of the two comnjittees to guide them in proceeding fur ther with their inquiry into the policies and practices of the Bu reau of Land Management and the Forest Service. Edward Woozley, director of BM, and Richard McArdle, chief of the Forest Service, are then expected to be called be fore the committees in the Feb ruary hearings. The point of the upcoming hearings, "it was explained, is to afford the committee members an opportunity of saying to the officials who run the govern ment's timber business: "Here is what we found to be the consensus on this problem or that policy out in Oregon. What could be done to remedy or improvC these situations?" Hew Legislation Doubted There appears little likelihood that new legislation will be forthcoming out of the timber investigation. Rather, changes are expected to be effected through shifts In policy and ad ministrative regulations which cover the fine points of federal timber management practices. For example, both the Forest Service and BLM are currently working on the problem of adopting similar or standard timber appraisal methods. Any changes that either might make would not require the enact ment of new laws by Congress, but simply administrative changes by the departments of Interior and Agriculture. Another example of change that required no legislative action has already been an nounced by both forestry agen cies increases in the allowable cuts. BLM announced on the eve of the Oregon hearings it would jack ' up the allowable cut on the O&C lands. The Forest Ser vice plans to follow suit, it was announced early this month by Assistant Agriculture Secretary F. L. Peterson.

Main Medford, Ore. to Congress when the House and Senate Appropriations commit tees review the budget requests of BLM and Forest Service early in 1956 and in subsequent years. They believe it has clearly been demonstrated that more funds should be appropriated for hir ing additional forestry personnel in the field. Another idea related to this that is being considered is a pos sible revision of .personnel pay scales that would better reflect management responsibility. As one staff member explained it, the men who run each of the national forests all earn about the same salary yet those for esters in charge of the forests of the Pacific Northwest, scene of the most extensive logging in the country, have much greater re sponsibility from a business point of view than those in more static areas of the country. The idea would be to adjust salaries in accordance with some scale of timber sales that would re flect the responsibilities in volved, somewhat like the pay of postmasters is figured on the basis of the individual post of fice's receipts. in itlT iii""1ninVfiii i Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY Hollywood (U.R) Has the American public forgiven In grid Bergman? Her co-workers believe her re turn to Holly wood films will be cheer ed and "her personal life forgotten." The news that 20th Century-Fox sign ed the . famed Aline Mosbr actress to star in the film version of a play, "Anastasia," was received in movietown with a water-over-the-dam shrug. Gregory' Peck, who co-starred with the Swedish star in "Spell bound," said he thought "it's time people forgot her pergonal life and let her return as the great artist she is." "She's as good as the best if not the best I've worked with," the handsome Peck commented. "She should be judged for what she does on the screen and not off." Producer David O. Selznick, who brought Ingrid to this coun try from Sweden in 1937, said he had "no doubt" the public would accept her. "If it's a good film, the public will support it," he said. "She's one of the great artists of our time, and. I'm delighted to see the Hollywood film industry has recaptured her." It's been six years since Miss Bergman left Hollywood to star in what appeared to be just an other film made on location, "Stromboli." But the statuesque actress never returned. Her cele brated romance with her direc tor, Roberto Rossellini, made headlines. They live in Italy with their three children. The actress never has returned to the United States. "Anas tasia" won't bring her here as the entire film will be made in Paris and Venice. But Buddy Adler, producer of the picture, insisted the question of her com ing to Hollywood "never came up." "We always had planned to make this in Europe. When a picture calls for a foreign locale, we do not build sets here," Ad ler explained. "She loves . this country and would coma back for the right part. He's Excited "I've been trying to get her in a picture for several years. We've submitted many scripts, but she didn't feel they were what she wanted. She liked "An astasia'. very much so we closed the deal. I'm as excited about this as when I cast Deborah Kerr in 'From Here to Eternity'." "Anastasia," based on a real life incident, is a story about a girl who believes she is Russian Royalty. Viveca Lindfors had the role on Broadway. Adler feels the public will ac cept Ingrid now "because that incident happened many years ago and she's a married woman with a family."
