Woodburn Assured
Work Doesn'i Mean
Air Base Coming
By UNITED PRESS
Residents of the Woodburn
area were assured today that
preliminary surveys on a 15,000
acre site west of the town do
not mean that the location has
been selected for a new $13,
000,000 Air Force base.
Earl Snyder, director of the
State Board of Aeronautics, said
the federal air space co-ordinating
committee in Log Angeles
had approved the site as possible
for development. Crews have
been in the area setting stakes
and making surveys.
Concerned About Loss
A group of farmers reported
to Snyder about crews drilling
deep holes in fields to test sub
soil conditions. They were con
cerned about possible loss of
their farms and loss of property
from tax rolls for school sup
port. -
Col. Wilson H. Banks, head of
the joint Air Force-Navy survey
team which inspected sites re
cently, said in Washington, D.C.,
that the survey is "one of many
facets" of the investigation on
"one of many sites" being con
sidered. Decision 60 Days Away
Rep. Walter Norblad (R-Ore.)
said the, Air Force had assured
him there would be no decision
on a. site for at least another 60
days.
He said he had received many
wires from Chambers of Com
merce in the Willamette valley
requesting the base be built in
their areas. He also has received
letters and petitions protesting
possible location of the base on
farmland in the Woodburn, Mo
lalla, Sheridan and St. Paul
areas.
