measures directed toward better
forest protection.
Difficulties have arisen in the
past, board members said, in pre
venting continued .violation of
the state conservation act by fail
ure to leave a s-ed source at the
time of losing. Current au
thority lies only in requiring
a bond providing for the restora
tion of the' area in violation hut
does not pre'.ent continued v iola
tions. Authoiity To Cancel
Under ' the proposed chance
trie state forester would have the

school lands would be transfered
to the forest department. The
acreage does not include the
"1,000-acre Elliott state forest

lands and which has been under
the forestry department manage
ment for past 23 years.

est and provide for a revolving
fund of S50.00O to defray the
cost of administration for tile
combined acreages. All receipts
in excess of the revolving fund
would be turned over to the
state land board.
j regulations previously issued
; by the board for the purpose of
, preventing forest fires through
the use of power saws would
; have the effect of law through
' provisions which would require
ra fire extinguisher of not less
than eight ounces capacity and
a shovel to be carried when the
j power saws are in operation,
j . It would also require that an
i area be cleared of all inflamma-
ble debris while gassing saws
; arid that they be removed at
least 10 feet from such an area
! when started. Requirements cov
1 ering snag falling in active op
; erat ions would reduce the diame-!-trr
limits from 16 inches to 12
inches and te height from 25
feet to 15 feet.
In areas where there are an
excessive number of snags by
reason of fire, insects or wind
throw, the state foresters would
have the authority to designate
the areas in which snags should
be felled.
Mautz Sees AFL-CSO
Committee Forceful
Portland (UP) Robert
Mautz. Republican chairman for
Oregon, last night described the
AFL-CIO Committee on Politic
al Education as a professional
political force that Republicans
will have to reckon with in Ore
gon. Mautz told Young Republic
ans here that the GOP must
find an answer to COPE or be
relegated to the position of an
ineffective political minority in
the state.
"COPE mad Oregon its
prime battleground and it did
a remarkable job," he said.
Mautz reported that Gov.
Elmo Smith polled more votes
than any other Republican gov

Details of Drowning
Recounted by Youth
Details of the accident in
which James Robert Taylor, 18.
Central Point, was drowned
last Sunday, were recounted to
day by Robert Kane, 17. route
1. box 296, Central Point, a
member of the party.
Kane said earlier press re
ports from Klamath Falls of the
fatal incident were erroneous,
and he wished to have the rec
ord set straight.
The party including young
Taylor, his brother Fred, 23,
Kane, and Leroy Waterhouse,
17, Gold Hill, were duck hunt
ing on the Williamson river
about sun-up Sunday, in an out
board motor boat.
As they were moving along
the river about 50 feet from
shore, a pin used to keep the
propellor blades high in the wa
ter dropped out, and the motor
swung down, dropping the pro
peller into the water. This caused
the bow of the boat to go up
and then dip down sharply and
the stern go up. Kane said. The
boat shipped water and began
sinking in about 10 feet of wa
ter, and all four were thrown
into the water.
The four young hunters were
all heavily clothed against the
cold weather, and the victim
had on rubber boots which fill
ed with water. Kane said. Neith
he nor his brother could swim.
Kane and Waterhouse just bare
ly managed to get themselves
and Fred Taylor to shore, but
there was no chance of saving
James Taylor from the icy wa
ter, he reported.
Funeral services for James
Taylor were held here Wednesday.
