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.
Data To Be Helpful
The committee staff expects
the data now being compiled to
be helpful to both agencies and

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.

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."
