MAIL TRIBUNE
Speaker Urges Republicans
To Study Conservation Facts
Unless the Republican party is
able to convince voters of Ore
gon that its position" on conser
vation and natural resources 's
basically the right one, "this is
sue (natural resources) is going
to trip us up and over and over
again." This was the statement
yesterday of Richard Gearhart,
Portland, who talked for the
April meeting of Jackson Coun
ty Republican Women at a lun
cheon at Mon Desir.
Mr. Gearhart, an employee of
the Pacific Pulp Moulding com
pany and a former national re
sources chairman for the Re
publican State Central commit
tee, declared that the party had
nothing to be ashamed of in its
conservation and national re
sources program. He urged that
each Republican arm himself
with the facts about these mat
ters in order to be able to com-
bat the "distortions and half
truths" of the opponents.
Mr. Gearhart, a graduate in
forestry from the University of
Michigan, formerly was employ
ed by the Department of Con
servation of that state; in 1950
he was president of the National
Association for Conservation
Education. The speaker said that
many Americans have a deep
emotional reaction to the out-
of-doors and that because of this,
it is difficult for them to be ob
jective about conservation and
national resource legislation and
programs.
The speaker said he believed
the Republican State Central
committee should foster a
strong information program in
Oregon on these matters and
that each county central com
mittee should appoint a well
qualified conservation chairman,
as well.
Natural resources and their
conservation present a problem
of the most extreme complex
ity, Mr. Gearhart said, and to
prove his point itemized the stor
ies and editorials in a single is
sue of the Oregonian which had
some bearing, direct or indirect,
on this subject. They numbered
about 30.
Speaking of the lumber in
dustry, Mr. Gearhart declared
that the "best managed forests
for privately owned" and added
that the cycle of "cut out and
get out" is definitely on the
wane. He said that the leaders
of the lumber industry have
provent hat it is now cheaper
to grow timber than it is to buy
stumpage, and that because of
improved methods in all phases
of this industry it is now pos
sible "to operate a bigger in
dustry on 40 per cent less vol
Bags

ume of timber."
He praised the federal forest
service for "showing the way"
in this change-over but said he
did not believe in the "federal
izing or nationalizing or other
'izing' "' of national resources.
Mr. Gearhart also spoke on
the importance of the recreation
angle of national resources and
pointed out that mony spent on
such recreations and sports as
hunting and fishing now runs in
the billions and is growing at a
phenomenol rate.
Returning to the political im
plications of national resources,
Mr. Gearhart said that the con
servation issue cost the Republi
can party the senatorial seat, the
governor's chair and at least
one legislative race in Eastern
Oregon in the last election. Ore
gon is a "public lands state, he
reminded his audience, and
added that everyone must re
member that "land is one of the
three basic factors of production
and when land is put into feder
al control, that's socialism, or I
don't know the meaning of the
word."
He stressed that the manage
ment of all national resources
should "be kept as close to the
people themselves as possible,"
and closed by asking for an
"honest and objective study of
all phases of this problem."
Mr. Gearhart was introduced
by Mrs. C. B. Francis and Mrs.
Wayne Stine presided.

Bayless Paintings
Now on Display;
Joins SOC Faculty
Benoyd S. (Steve) Bayless, art
instructor at McLoughlin High
school who will join the faculty
of Southern Oregon college
next fall, has four paintings on
display this week and next at
Purucker s Piano house.
Mr. Bayless was invited to
exhibit the pictures by Clifford
Platz, Medford artist who. has
a continuing display of work
at the store. Mr. Platz is cur
rently exhibiting outdoor scenes
done in the conventional man
ner, and states that Mr. Bayless'
work, in the modern style, pro
vides a pleasing contrast.
Mr. Bayless is exhibiting "City
By a River, "Crucifixion,"
"Kings," and "Three Prophets."
. These works strive to show
expression through colors,
forms, textures and lines. "City
on a River," for example,
creates the mood of a city at
night with reflections in water.
The natural forms of buildings
are used as a point of departure
for the invention of new forms.
The task becomes great in re
lating these forms and colors
into a unified whole," Mr. Bay
less states.
Mr. and Mrs. Bayless have
purchased a home in the Valley
View district of Ashland and
will move there this summer.
