Wilson, Radford Rap
Extra Air Force Fund
Quantico, Va. tU.R Defense
Secretary Charles E. Wilson and
Adm. Arthur W. Radford fired
a torpedo today at a Senate Re
publican compromise plan to
vote the Air Force an extra
$300,000,000, most for jet
bombers.
Wilson cried "phoney" at
Democratic efforts to add $1.-
180,000,000 to the new air budg
et and said he didn't like the Re
publican compromise plan any
better.
Radford, chairman of the joint
chiefs of staff, said he consid
ered the budget for the year
starting July 1 "adequate" as
proposed by the Eisenhower ad
ministration. He did not favor
an increase.
Wilson, presiding over his an
nual conference of top civilian
and military leaders here, told
newsmen he doubted that Rus
sia can launch a bombing attack
on the United States with its
Taunted Bison jet bombers.
America's B52 is a "greatly su
perior" airplane, he said.

Oregon Forest Lands Exchanged
Between Forest Service and BLM
Washington (U.R) The sec
rearies of agriculture and in
terior yesterday signed orders
changing more than 480.000
acres of land under their admin
istration in Oregon.
The orders were signed by
Secretary of Interior Fred A.
Seaton and Secretary of Agricul
ture Ezra T. Benson after a cab
inet meeting at the White House.
The consolidation was effected
under the Cordon-Ellsworth law
adopted June 24, 1954. It was
a major step in untangling the
complicated federal land pat
tern in Oregon.
Land Consolidated
The Agriculture Department's
forest service has administered
the even numbered sections of
the large block of land and In
terior's Bureau of Land Man
agement the odd-numbered sec
tions. The Cordon-Ellsworth law di
rected an exchange so that land
administered by the forest serv
ice will be consolidated in
blocks in certain areas and those
administered by the Bureau of
Land Management consolidated
in other areas.
Involved in the exchange are
241,137 acres of National Forest
lands and 242,734 acres of re
vested Oregon and California
railroad grant lands in 13 coun
ties of western .Oregon.
Odd Sections Granted
These lands were intermingled
because the federal government
in 1866 granted to the Oregon
and California railroad the odd
sections of lands within a cer-1
tain distance of the railroad line. !
When the railroad did not
comply with the stipulations of
the grant, the land was revested
and given to the Bureau of
Land Management then the
General Land Office to ad
minister. The even sections in
the meantime had been included
in the national forest and admin
istered by the Forest Service
along with other timber and
watershed lands reserved from
the public domain.
Advantages Sees
Seaton and Benson both point
ed out advantages of the con
solidation. It will reduce the
current public confusion over
differing procedures which the
two federal agencies find nec
essary under existing laws, per
mit economies in administration
and simplify the administration
of timber sales. '
The land exchanges arc of
O 4 C lands transferred to the
forest service are subject to the
laws governing administration
of national forests. Likewise, all
national forest lands transferred
will be administered by laws
governing the BLM. All out
standing contracts are recog
nized by the two agencies. All
improvements go with the lands
exchanged.
Funds Allowed for
Upper Colorado Job
Washington (U.PJ A Senate
House conference committee has
allowed $13,000,000 for con
struction and planning on the
Upper Colorado Project in fiscal
1957, it was learned today.
The amount is the same as
proposed by the Senate and $7,-
000,000 more than .allowed by
the House. Originally, the House
Appropriations committee had
allocated only $3,155,000 for the
project.
The House Appropriations
committee had cut back a $6,
000,000 administration request
for the project on grounds con
struction on main units could
not start until next spring. Add
ed funds, the committee said,
